TUCSON, ARIZONA

Caverns and ski slopes. Ghost towns and opera. Mexican missions and collossal cacti. Rodeo and Gilbert & Sullivan. They’re just part of what visiting families can find in Tucson, Arizona. Tucson may well be the oldest continuously inhabited city in the United States, dating back to an Indian village in the ninth century. It’s not too difficult to see why the Indians took it to heart: its mild, dry climate and bright sunshine all year long; and the scenic Santa Catalina mountains in the background. Families on vacation find that a wide range of activities, coupled with the agreeable climate, are good reasons for heading for Tucson. In town, there are many reminders of the city’s Spanish heritage (some dating from 1776, when the Spanish rulers of Mexico made it a royal fort), such as the famed San Xavier Mission, called “The White Dove of the Desert. ” Tucson keeps the days of cowboys and Indians alive with “Old Tucson," where many movies and TV westerns (including "Bonanza” and “Gunsmoke”) were made, and live gunfights are staged throughout the day. Modern cowboys take part in fodeos almost every weekend. Nature-lovers will find the Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum, with all the animals and plants native to the Southwest represented,

Q. I’ve heard that most insurance companies give a discount for safe driving. What type of driving record must I have to qualify? A. It’s true. If you have a clear driving record you will qualify for lower rates on your insurance premiums than those drivers who do not have a clear record. A clear driving record means that neither the policyholder nor any household member has been involved in an accident in which he or she was at fault, nor has been convicted of a serious traffic law violation for the past three years. It is estimated that more than 75 percent of all motorists qualify for the safe driver rate The chargeable period for some companies varies For some it is two years. This is changing.

Tucson’s a town that doesn’t pull in its sidewalks when the sun goes down. There are resident theater, opera, and dance companies, and other touring companies play engagements. They help to make Tucson an all-around favorite for visitors, all year round.

We feel they have done a good job and deserve credits where credits are due for their service to the community. They are in need of additional personnel as well as operating funds. And a “thank you” is always appreciated. If you have time to help and want to serve your fellowman why not contact a member about joining them in their work. If you have money to donate, new equipment is always needed . . .all EMS personnel is volunteer and all funds collected go toward operating the service and the equipment required. If you have no time and have no money to give why not say “thank you for helping us” when you see an EMS member this month.

FOOTBALL IN the fall. Basketball in the winter. Baseball in the spring and summer. I have been an avid sports fan all my life. But I’ve had it! I quit this sports business once and for all. You can’t get me near one of those places again. Want to know why? Every time I went, they asked me for money. The people with whom I had to sit didn’t seem very friendly. The seats were too hard and not at all comfortable. 1 went to many games, but the coach never came to call on me. The referee made a decision with which I could not agree. I suspected that I was sitting with some hypocrites — they came to see their friends and what others were wearing rather than to see the game. Some games went into overtime and I was late getting home. The band played some numbers that I have never heard before. It seems that the games are

scheduled when I want to do other things. I was taken to too many games by my parents when I was growing up. I recently read a book on sports and now I feel that I know more then the coaches do anyhow. I don’t want to take my children to any games, because I want thim to choose for themselves what sports they like best. We found the above in the Bethany Church of the Brethren's monthly paper and thought them worth printing. Os course the remarks don’t really relate to sports . . . they are excuses that people give for not going to church.

Nicole is Edith’s first greatgrandchild and a very pretty one indeed Nicole is the duughter of Sonar technician second class and Mrs. Brent L. Hammond.
