Indians and 'Old Spain' Provide
Charm of Arizona, New Mexico

and the Oregon Slatt Motor aaaoclatlun.

tall Writer!, TtM Oreioalan
WE WANTED sunshine. The
chill of an "unusual" winter
still lingered in our bones and
in the bronchii of our youngest
. child who, opined the family
doctor, might get at least tem
I porary relief from the asthma
j under the Southwest sun.
That is why we embarked on
a 4055.7-mile motorlog, encom
passing most of the West, for
. The Oregonian and the Oregon
State Motor association.
I We entered New Mexico's
high desert, smack into the
Navajo Indian reservation.
This was typically southwest
country. Mile after mile of
I plateau, 8000 feet up in the
I cloudless sky, looked like walled
I cities of a bygone race of giants.
. Color was ramDant cobalt sky,
towering rock masses shading
from orange to purple.
Hogans spotted the desert,
miles from the nearest habita
tion, Invariably without any sign
of available water. Occasion
ally we saw a Navajo boy or
girl In colorful tribal costume
herding sheep near the high
way, or Dassed an Indian trad
ing post with a few Navajos
squalling in me sun.
A few hours later, we dropped
down a short sloDe into old-
world Spain. The sign on the
bridge over a shallow discoioreo
stream said "Rio Puerco" Pig
river.
At the other end of the bridge
eupped In a bend of the river,
was Cuba. N. M. Fifty build
ings, not more, made up the
town all built along the high
way. Four out of five had big
"bar" or "cantina" signs. In
dians and Mexicans leaned
against porch pillars or lolled
on the continuous steps which

led from the community porch
to the highway.
In the highway, pigs and
small children competed for
mud puddles apparently left
over from a rain the night be
fore. Albuquerque was a different
story. North, south, east and
west, hifihwav? leading into this

town made famous by the late
Ernie Pyle, were lined with
motels. It was obviously a town
dedicated to tourists and health
seekers with Just enough sup
port from surrounding cattle
ranches to balance its economy.
For us, there were two out
standing points of interest in
the city the University of New
Mexico, its dun-colored adobe
buildings sprawled in architec
tural perfection Just beyond the
shopping district, and the brilliantly-costumed
Navajo Indians
who made up a good share of
pedestrian traffic.
Our next stop was Isleta
Pueblo, 15 miles south of Albu
ouerque. where Hop! Indians
have lived continuously for over
1000 years. Here, everything
was adobe Including fences
some of it In ruins, some of it
streamlined to resemble modern
stucco.
From Isleta, we took the
southern route through New
Mexico to Tucson, Ariz., where
motels boasted swimming pools
and myriad signs proclaimed it
a paradise for asthmatics.
After hundreds of miles of
low sage, the green ocolillo
shrubs, mesquite and towering
saguaro cactus quickened our
interest.
Phoenix was pleasant, but hot
and dusty, so we left it for the
Grand Canyon.
The next morning, after one
farewell look at the Grand
Canyon, we headed for the
MoJave desert and home, via
central California.
Scenically, it was a very satin
; fving trip especially Arizona.
Culturally, it was even more so.
i Far more than the northwest,
the southwest is steeped In 1U
own traditions. Its modern his
torv Bnpj back nearly 350 years:
that of its Indiana untold thousands.
WHERE THE SPIRIT
OF SERVICE BEGINS
One Coast-wide school system is for
telephone people only-and better
service for the West is the result

1 . As this young lady learns to use a training
switchboard, she'll also learn many things that
will be mighty important to good service. All
through her training she'll see how operators
make courtesy and helpfulness a normal part of
their jobs. And the same spirit is present as other
telephone people learn their new skills.

2. On stubby poles like these, linemen learn
to use their new climbing equipment. This is
just one of the more than one hundred courses
that telephone people study in towns large and
small up and down the Coast. In 1948, thou
sands of employees received training. That
means thousands of men and women better able
to furnish good service to you.
4. Good service for you
comes from telephone people
who know their jobs. You can
help them serve you best by
making sure you always have
the right number in mind be
fore calling, leaving a little time
between calls, giving the called
person time to answer.

3. On-the-job-tralnlng here in the West
is typified by this "student" who is learning the
workings of a trouble indicator frame an auto
matic detective that constantly makes sure the
lines on its "beat" are giving good service. Even
experienced employees take refresher courses
like this to keep up-to-date . . . and keep learn
ing their way up the ladder.
