Chihuahua to load their wagons with this<br />

Americans from the El Paso Valley communities<br />

would make a 70 mile, two day journey<br />

from San Elizario to the salt beds. <strong>The</strong> salt<br />

would be transported by mule drawn wagons<br />

south to Chihuahua and Sonora, where it was<br />

the smelting of silver. Prior to 1848, the salt<br />

to civic development in the bustling<br />

Teacher Is A Priest 1887<br />

-<strong>The</strong> great star of teaching poor children of<br />

Mexican families arrived in 1887 with a Spaniard<br />

who called himself O.V. Aoy. He had<br />

been a Jesuit priest, had translated the Book<br />

of Mormon into Spanish and had published a<br />

newspaper in Silver City, N.M. He set up his<br />

school –providing the books, blackboards and<br />

chairs himself, plus $5 a month rent –behind<br />

<br />

1890, Aoy’s classroom came to light during an<br />

accident -the doctor who treated him brought<br />

it to the board’s attention. When Aoy broke his<br />

leg, he was penniless, sleeping on a bench with<br />

a coat for a pillow and only owned the clothes<br />

on his back and completely out of food. <strong>The</strong><br />

school board put him on the payroll as principal<br />

of the “Mexican Preparatory School” until<br />

his death in 1895. His name lives on at Aoy<br />

in 1899. At the turn of the century, El Paso’s<br />

four siblings. One day in 1894, Villa came<br />

the hacienda intended to have sex with Villa’s<br />

12-year old sister. Villa, only 16-years old,<br />

grabbed a pistol, shot the owner of the hacienda,<br />

and then took off to the mountains. By<br />

1896, he had joined some other bandits and<br />

Texas Western 1966<br />

-From the time of the Miner-Haskins<br />

victory, around<br />

10:10 p.m. and continuing for<br />

hours, the entire EP downtown<br />

area and Texas Western<br />

College campus was in a<br />

hectic uproar. Thousands of<br />

horn-blowing cars and exuberant<br />

basketball fans swept<br />

through San Jacinto Plaza.<br />

People screamed “We’re<br />

number one!” At the Plaza,<br />

the sound of auto horns was<br />

so loud, it was impossible to<br />

talk. One pickup truck was<br />

seen driving around with three<br />

drummers in the back playing<br />

drums. Tourist and people<br />

who had not been watching<br />

the game were startled at the<br />

celebrating and horn honking.<br />

“Bobby Joe Hill, Lattin<br />

and the team are better than<br />

Batman! <strong>The</strong>y’re faster too.<br />

“<strong>The</strong>y were just tops!” Paint<br />

smeared cars bearing the<br />

phrase- “TWC No.1!” were<br />

seen.<br />

which by this time was a relatively large community,<br />

was still predominantly a way station<br />

for commerce between the interior of Mexico<br />

revolved around gaming, drinking, and prostitution.<br />

Galveston and Houston earned early<br />

reputations for making drinking, and other<br />

vices, glamorous. Marijuana drug was commonly<br />

sold in drugstores and other shops in<br />

these cities though this was largely seen as a<br />

recreational drug for the lower classes. <strong>The</strong><br />

Swept many Americans<br />

1920s were an age of dramatic<br />

social and political<br />

<br />

more Americans lived<br />

in cities than on farms.<br />

<strong>The</strong> nation’s total wealth<br />

more than doubled between<br />

1920 and 1929,<br />

and this economic growth<br />

swept many Americans<br />

<br />

familiar “consumer society.”<br />

People from coast<br />

to coast bought the same<br />

goods (thanks to nationwide<br />

advertising and the<br />

<br />

listened to the same music,<br />

did the same dances<br />

and even used the same<br />

slang! Many Americans<br />

were uncomfortable with<br />

this new, urban, sometimes<br />

racy “mass culture”;<br />

in fact, for many–<br />

even most–people in the<br />

United States, the 1920s<br />

<br />

than celebration. However,<br />

for a small handful of<br />

young people in the nation’s<br />

big cities, the 1920s<br />

were roaring indeed. <strong>The</strong><br />

most familiar symbol of<br />

the “Roaring Twenties”<br />

<br />

young woman with bobbed<br />

hair and short skirts<br />

who drank, smoked and<br />

said what might be termed<br />

“unladylike” things, in<br />

addition to being more<br />

sexually “free” than previous<br />

generations. In reality,<br />

most young women<br />

in the 1920s did none<br />

of these things (though<br />

many did adopt a fashion-<br />

<br />

but even those women<br />

<br />

gained some unprecedented<br />

freedoms. <strong>The</strong>y<br />

could vote at last: <strong>The</strong><br />

19th Amendment to the<br />

Constitution had guaranteed<br />

that right in 1920.<br />

Millions of average women<br />

worked in white-collar<br />

jobs (as stenographers,<br />

<br />

afford to participate in<br />

the burgeoning consumer<br />

economy. <strong>The</strong><br />

increased availability<br />

of birth-control devices<br />

such as the diaphragm<br />

made it possible for<br />

women to have fewer<br />

children. And new<br />

machines and technologies<br />

like the washing<br />

machine and the vacuum<br />

cleaner eliminated<br />

some of the drudgery of<br />

household work. Many<br />

Americans had extra<br />

money to spend, and<br />

they spent it on consumer<br />

goods such as readyto-wear<br />

clothes and<br />

home appliances like<br />

electric refrigerators. In<br />

particular, they bought<br />

<br />

mercial radio station in<br />

the U.S., Pittsburgh’s<br />

KDKA, hit the airwaves<br />

in 1920; three years later<br />

there were more than<br />

500 stations in the nation.<br />

By the end of the<br />

1920s, there were radios<br />

in more than 12 million<br />

households. People also<br />

went to the movies. --<br />

- Historians estimate that, by the<br />

end of the decades, three-quarters<br />

of the American population visited<br />

a movie theater every week.<br />

But the most important consumer<br />

product of the 1920s was the automobile.<br />

Low prices (the Ford<br />

<br />

and generous credit<br />

made cars affordable<br />

luxuries at the beginning<br />

of the decade;<br />

by the end, they were<br />

practically necessities.<br />

In 1929 there<br />

was one car on the<br />

<br />

Americans. Meanwhile,<br />

an economy<br />

of automobiles was<br />

born. Businesses like<br />

service stations and<br />

motels sprang up to<br />

meet drivers’ needs.<br />

Cars also gave<br />

young peo- ple the<br />

freedom to g o<br />

where they<br />

pleased<br />

and do<br />

what they<br />

wanted to<br />

do. Some<br />

pundits<br />

called<br />

them “bedrooms<br />

on<br />

wheels.” What<br />

so many young people<br />

wanted to do was dance: the<br />

Charleston, the cake walk, the<br />

<br />

bands played at dance halls like<br />

the Savoy in New York City and<br />

the Aragon in Chicago; radio<br />

stations and phonograph records<br />

(100 million of which were sold in<br />

<br />

listeners across the nation. Some<br />

older people objected to jazz music’s<br />

“vulgarity” and “depravity”<br />

(and the “moral disasters” it sup-<br />

<br />

the younger generation loved the<br />

freedom they felt on the dance<br />

-<br />

doms were expanded while others<br />

were curtailed. <strong>The</strong> 1<strong>8th</strong> Amend-<br />

<br />

in 1919, had banned the manufacture<br />

and sale of “intoxicating<br />

liquors,” and at 12 A.M. on January<br />

16, 1920, the federal Volstead<br />

Act closed every tavern, bar and<br />

saloon in the United States. From<br />

then on, it was illegal to<br />

sell any “intoxication<br />

beverages”<br />

with more<br />

than 0.5% alcohol.<br />

This<br />

drove the<br />

liquor trade<br />

underground–<br />

now, people<br />

simply went to nominally<br />

illegal speakeasies<br />

instead of ordinary bars–where<br />

it was controlled by bootleggers,<br />

racketeers and other orga-<br />

<br />

cago gangster Al Capone. Capone<br />

reportedly had 1,000 gunmen and<br />

half of Chicago’s police force on<br />

his payroll. To many middle-class<br />

white Americans, Prohibition was<br />

a way to assert some control over<br />

the unruly immigrant masses who<br />

crowded the nation’s cities. For<br />

instance, to the so-called “Drys,”<br />

beer was known as “Kaiser brew.”<br />

Drinking was a symbol of all they<br />

disliked about the modern city,<br />

and eliminating alcohol would,<br />

they believed, turn back the clock<br />

<br />

to an earlier and more comfortable<br />

time. Prohibition was not<br />

the only source of social tension<br />

during the 1920s. <strong>The</strong> Great Migration<br />

of African Americans<br />

from the Southern countryside to<br />

Northern cities and the increasing<br />

visibility of black culture —jazz<br />

and blues music, for example, and<br />

the literary movement<br />

known as the<br />

Harlem Renaissance—<br />

discom-<br />

<br />

Americans. Millions<br />

of people in<br />

places like Indiana<br />

and Illinois joined<br />

the Ku Klux Klan<br />

in the 1920s. To<br />

them, the Klan<br />

represented a return<br />

to all the “values”<br />

that the fastpaced,<br />

city-slicker<br />

Roaring Twenties<br />

were trampling.<br />

Likewise, an<br />

anti-Communist<br />

“Red<br />

Scare” in<br />

1919 and<br />

1920 encouraged<br />

a widespread<br />

nativist,<br />

or antiimmigrant,<br />

hysteria. This<br />

led to the passage of<br />

an extremely restrictive immigration<br />

law, the National Origins Act<br />

of 1924, which set immigration<br />

quotas that excluded some people<br />

<br />

favor of others (Northern Europeans<br />

and people from Great Britain,<br />

Civil War” between city-dwellers<br />

and small-town residents, Protestants<br />

Americans because they, more<br />

African Americans had suffered<br />

had made them the prophets and<br />

artistic vanguard of “American”<br />

culture. This judgment was reinforced<br />

by the immense popularity<br />

of African American music, especially<br />

jazz, worldwide. <strong>The</strong> popularity<br />

of jazz among whites was<br />

shaped in part by interest in the<br />

“primitive and exotic” and helped<br />

spark a “Negro Vogue” in cities<br />

■ <strong>The</strong> <strong>SWChronicle</strong> EDU© <strong>The</strong> Collegian • 1920s <strong>The</strong> Truth • Harlem Renaissance<br />

Harlem Renaissance Spanning the 1920s to the mid-<br />

1930s, the Harlem Renaissance was a literary, artistic,<br />

and intellectual movement that kindled a new black<br />

cultural identity. Its essence was summed up by critic<br />

and teacher Alain Locke in 1926 when he declared that<br />

<br />

group expression and self determination.” Harlem became<br />

the center of a “spiritual coming of age” in which<br />

Locke’s “New Negro” transformed “social disillusion-<br />

parallel emergence as a black art form. <strong>The</strong> nucleus<br />

of the movement included Jean Toomer, Langston<br />

Hughes, Rudolf Fisher, Wallace Thurman, Jessie Redmon<br />

Fauset, Nella Larsen, Arna Bontemps, Countee<br />

Cullen, and Zora Neale Hurston. An older generation<br />

of writers and intellectuals –James Weldon Johnson,<br />

Claude McKay,<br />

Alain Locke, and Charles S. Johnson–served as mentors.<br />

<strong>The</strong> publishing industry, fueled by whites’ fascination<br />

with the exotic world of Harlem, sought out and<br />

published black writers. With much of the literature<br />

focusing on a realistic portrayal of black life, conservative<br />

black critics feared that the depiction of ghetto<br />

realism would impede the cause of racial equality. <strong>The</strong><br />

intent of the movement, however, was not political but<br />

of our individual dark-skinned selves.” <strong>The</strong><br />

establishment after it waned in the 1930s. With the<br />

advent of the civil rights movement, it again acquired<br />

wider recognition. -End<br />

racism was rampant, New York had an extraordinarily<br />

diverse and decentered black social world in which<br />

no one group could monopolize cultural authority,<br />

making it a particularly fertile place for cultural experimentation.<br />

Moreover, being situated in New York<br />

the publishing capital of the Western Hemisphere,<br />

<br />

well as cultural capital of the United States put Harlem<br />

in a strategic position for developing black arts<br />

and sending them out to the world. Few of the wellknown<br />

black writers or artists were born in Harlem,<br />

but almost all of them passed through it, were inspired<br />

by it, or achieved their reputations in part because of<br />

what happened there. -End<br />

EL PASO MADAM IS A<br />

BIG BROTHEL BULLY!<br />

ORIGINAL STORY APRIL 1886 EL PASO<br />

Madam Big Alice Is A Brothel Bully In El Paso<br />

Busty Bessie Colvin was a very popular girl. Arriving<br />

in El Paso from Louisville, Kentucky in 1884,<br />

she quickly found employment at Alice Abbott’s<br />

brothel, where she soon became the main attraction.<br />

Alice often took her on shopping sprees where she let<br />

<br />

the madam’s account. Alice recorded all such transactions<br />

in her ledger and allowed Bessie to “work-<br />

<br />

<br />

<br />

<br />

off” her debts, a<br />

common practice<br />

in all brothels. But<br />

as often happens,<br />

the share-hopping<br />

agreement eventually<br />

soured. Bessie<br />

accused her employer<br />

of cheating<br />

on the accounting<br />

and Alice counter<br />

charged Miss Colvin<br />

with performing<br />

extracurricular activities with certain customers<br />

and withholding as much as $125 received for such<br />

services.<br />

On Sunday evening, April 18, 1886, Bessie made<br />

up her mind to leave Alice and seek better working<br />

conditions else where. Bessie reeled onto Utah<br />

Street and headed for Etta Clark’s brothel. Bessie<br />

explained the situation and asked the madam for<br />

work. Etta readily agreed to comply with Bessie’s<br />

request. Bessie returned to Alice’s parlor house to<br />

pick up her working clothes and personal effects.<br />

Alice tried to slap her rebelling employee, but the<br />

petite girl ducked the heavy-handed blow and ran<br />

out of the building, once more heading for Etta’s.<br />

Alice stormed up Etta’s steps and savagely jabbed<br />

the doorbell. Receiving no immediate response, the<br />

<br />

the wooden barrier. Etta Clark opened the door,<br />

“What do you want?” Etta asked. “I want to see<br />

Bessie,” Alice demanded. Whereupon Etta calmly<br />

looked at her adversary and stated: “She doesn’t<br />

want to see you. Get out of my house.” Alice started<br />

<br />

<br />

Abbott brushed the weapon aside, shouting: “I owe<br />

you this anyhow,” and hit Etta in the face. Seeing<br />

her prey once again in range, Alice leaped on Etta,<br />

grabbed her by the throat, slapped her a couple of<br />

times and threw the lightweight madam back into<br />

her bedroom. Stunned, Etta watched as Alice seized<br />

Bessie’s wrist and began dragging the screaming<br />

<br />

to wrench free and ran back to Etta’s side.<br />

Meanwhile, Etta had regained her senses and ran to<br />

her dresser, opened a drawer and picked up her .44<br />

caliber revolver. Returning once more to the hall,<br />

she pointed the gun at Alice and commanded, “Miss<br />

Alice, I want you to leave!” Alice then began advancing<br />

on her smaller opponent and Etta pulled the<br />

trigger. Clutching her groin, Alice screamed: “My<br />

God! I’m shot!” She staggered down the steps to<br />

collapse in the street. Rushing to the porch, Etta<br />

<br />

target and plowed into the dust of Utah Street. Alice<br />

looked up in fear at Etta, anticipating a third shot,<br />

but the tiny madam, content with the damage she<br />

had done, smiled contemptuously and returned to<br />

her house. Etta Burke, Nina Farrell and Josie Conelly<br />

rushed to Alice and helped the stricken woman<br />

to her brothel. <strong>The</strong> women put Alice in her bed and<br />

summoned Dr. A.L. Justice to tend the ugly wound.<br />

On examination, Dr. Justice discovered the bullet<br />

had penetrated to the right of Alice’s pubic arch and<br />

passed through her body.<br />

<strong>The</strong> El Paso Herald reported the altercation the next<br />

day, with the resulting article becoming a part of<br />

southwestern folklore. <strong>The</strong> Herald the next morning<br />

described the affair and tried to say that Alice<br />

was shot in the pubic arch, but the phrase came out<br />

public arch -a more accurate statement of the case,<br />

perhaps, than the one which was intended. -END<br />

textures and patterns to create<br />

totally new styles of dress. Evening<br />

dresses, coats and jackets<br />

were often trimmed with fur. Fur<br />

coats dropped in popularity while<br />

fur trimmed coats, especially<br />

for women, followed an upward<br />

trend. Hemlines rose for most of<br />

the decade but dropped slightly<br />

toward the end. <strong>The</strong> popular trend<br />

<br />

taste for luxury and as a result<br />

engaged in less sport themselves,<br />

a which has continued down to<br />

the present day resulting in the socalled<br />

“couch-potato” syndrome.<br />

Watching Babe Ruth play baseball<br />

became more important than<br />

playing baseball yourself. However<br />

this was not true of all sports,<br />

as tennis and golf in particular<br />

boomed due to their higher pro-<br />

<br />

men and women. Money also<br />

became a factor in college sport<br />

where it was claimed that sports<br />

had also become commercialized<br />

to the point where the few were<br />

exploited to make a spectacle for<br />

the many and where the games be-<br />

cotton became less<br />

fashionable. Women’s<br />

underwear which had<br />

been primarily cotton<br />

before 1920 was predominantly<br />

fashioned<br />

from silk and rayon by<br />

the end of the decade. Young<br />

women in particular discarded<br />

cotton underwear for the new materials<br />

while older women were<br />

slower to change. Likewise city<br />

people made the change to the<br />

new materials and styles far sooner<br />

than country people. Shoes<br />

and stockings assumed a greater<br />

prominence now that they were<br />

more visible. Silk stockings in all<br />

the colors of the rainbow, often<br />

with patterns, were designed to<br />

<br />

stylish women.<br />

“Assembling” was part of the new<br />

fashion trends and so purses and<br />

handbags became fashion items in<br />

a 1920s trendy fashion statement.<br />

<br />

nue rather than a school of sport<br />

and exercise for the majority, and<br />

no longer focused on sportsmanship<br />

or moral development. <strong>The</strong><br />

sports stars of this era remain well<br />

known even today, such was their<br />

fame and the publicity they received<br />

for their amazing careers,<br />

endorsements or promotions. Very<br />

few will not have heard of Babe<br />

Ruth in baseball, Jack Dempsey<br />

in boxing, Johnny Weissmuller<br />

in swimming, Knute Rockne and<br />

Red Grange in football, Bill Tilden<br />

and Helen Wills in tennis and<br />

Bobby Jones and Glenna Collett in<br />

golf. As the current sports champions<br />

were coming to the close of<br />

their careers a younger generation<br />

of sports stars were in the making.<br />

<strong>The</strong> momentum these sports built<br />

up in the 1920’s has ensured that<br />

these sports have endured in popularity<br />

to the present day. Our old<br />

heroes are not forgotten. -End<br />

At the same<br />

time there was<br />

a marked decrease<br />

in the<br />

use of hooks<br />

and eyes,<br />

and feathers<br />

and plumes.<br />

<strong>The</strong> use of<br />

perfumes,<br />

cosmetics and<br />

toilet preparations<br />

skyrocketed due<br />

to a massive advertising<br />

effort<br />

in periodicals,<br />

newspapers, and<br />

radio. Correspondence<br />

schools<br />

<br />

inter-war period<br />

as people sought<br />

to educate themselves<br />

and create<br />

a better future for<br />

themselves and<br />

their families.<br />

Dressmaking and<br />

millinery courses<br />

in particular<br />

were embraced<br />

by women who wanted the new<br />

fashions but couldn’t afford retail<br />

prices. Others were looking to create<br />

full or part-time jobs for themselves.<br />

Many women turned to<br />

fashion as a vocation in order to<br />

support their fatherless families in<br />

the case of war widows, or to earn<br />

extra income to spend on the new<br />

luxuries. Working women also<br />

embraced the relatively inexpensive<br />

ready-made clothes as mass<br />

production of contemporary<br />

clothing<br />

became<br />

common.<br />

And for<br />

<br />

time in<br />

the U.S.<br />

“the famous<br />

bob” hair<br />

style was rapidly reintroduced.<br />

And a new woman evolved. -End

Picture Postcard History Since 1840<br />

-Postcards are collected by historical societies, libraries<br />

and genealogical societies because of their<br />

importance in research such as how a city looked<br />

at a particular time in history as well as social history.<br />

Many elementary schools use postcards to<br />

teach children geography. Postcard Penpal programs<br />

have been established to help children in<br />

language arts. <strong>The</strong> earliest known picture postcard<br />

was a hand-painted design on card, posted in Fulham<br />

in London to the writer <strong>The</strong>odore Hook in<br />

1840 bearing a penny black stamp. He probably<br />

created and posted the card to himself as a practical<br />

joke on the postal service, since the image is<br />

<br />

the postcard sold for a record £31,750.<br />

In the United States, the custom of sending<br />

through the mail, at letter rate, a picture or blank<br />

card stock that held a message, began with a card<br />

postmarked in December 1848 containing printed<br />

<br />

was created in 1861 by John P. Charlton of Philadelphia,<br />

who patented a postal card, and sold the<br />

rights to Hymen Lipman, whose postcards, complete<br />

with a decorated border, were labeled “Lipman’s<br />

postal card”. <strong>The</strong>se cards had no images.<br />

“Many elementary<br />

schools use<br />

postcards to teach<br />

children geography.”<br />

Carnegie Public Library<br />

and El Paso’s Public Band Stand. Frequent<br />

concerts by military bands during the<br />

summer months.<br />

In Britain, postcards without images were issued<br />

<br />

as part of the design, which was included in the<br />

<br />

postcard, with an image on one side, was created<br />

in France in 1870 at Camp Conlie by Léon<br />

Besnardeau (1829–1914). Conlie was a training<br />

camp for soldiers in the Franco-Prussian war. <strong>The</strong><br />

cards had a lithographed design printed on them<br />

containing emblematic images of piles of armaments<br />

on either side of a scroll topped by the arms<br />

of the Duchy of Brittany and the inscription “War<br />

of 1870. Camp Conlie. Souvenir of the National<br />

Defence. Army of Brittany”. While these are<br />

<br />

was no space for stamps and no evidence that they<br />

were ever posted without envelopes.<br />

Male Reading Club 1894<br />

<strong>The</strong> library is the oldest<br />

public library system in the<br />

great state of Texas. It started<br />

in 1894 as a reading club<br />

for male students of teacher<br />

Mary I. Stanton.<br />

Ms. Stanton brought a<br />

collection of between<br />

600 – 800 volumes of<br />

books with her from<br />

Georgia to El Paso. Her<br />

reading club became so<br />

popular that Stanton<br />

opened it to the public in<br />

El Paso has all the trade<br />

-gastronómicas que surgieron<br />

localmente y que<br />

por su calidad y aceptación<br />

generalizada se han<br />

vuelto emblemáticas de<br />

la cocina mexicana en lo<br />

general. Éste es el caso de<br />

platillos como la cochinita<br />

pibil (yucateca), el<br />

mole oaxaqueño, el mole<br />

poblano, el pozole (iden-<br />

<br />

co y Guerrero), el cabrito<br />

el pan de cazón<br />

campechano, el Churipu<br />

y las corundas purépechas<br />

(de Michoacán), el<br />

menudo de Sinaloa, Sonora<br />

y Chihuahua y otros<br />

muchos alimentos, en una<br />

larga lista de honor de la<br />

gastronomía mexicana.<br />

Aunque algunas sobresalen,<br />

en efecto, por su<br />

bien ganada fama y difusión,<br />

estas tradiciones<br />

gastronómicas regionales<br />

deben jerarquizarse solo<br />

en función de gustos personales.<br />

En los mercados<br />

de cada ciudad se pueden<br />

encontrar muchas de estas<br />

mismas tradiciones<br />

gastronómicas, siendo<br />

la actividad por las<br />

mañanas, desde los típicos<br />

desayunos (como -<br />

molletes dulces o salados)<br />

o huevos al gusto y<br />

bebidas como café, chocolate<br />

o bebidas con leche<br />

(chocomilk) hasta platillos<br />

únicos de cada región,<br />

en el caso de Jalisco, en<br />

los mercados no falta la<br />

birria o el menudo. En el<br />

conjunto inmenso de cocinas<br />

regionales bien diferenciadas,<br />

se caracterizan<br />

todas ellas por un componente<br />

indígena básico en<br />

sus ingredientes y en las<br />

formas de preparación de<br />

los alimentos. En este orden<br />

podría decirse que el<br />

común denominador de<br />

tales gastronomías es el<br />

uso del maíz, del chile y<br />

del frijol, acompañados<br />

por el siempre presente<br />

jitomate, en sus diversas<br />

formas y variedades. En<br />

las últimas décadas ha<br />

<br />

que se ha dado en llamar<br />

nueva cocina mexicana,<br />

que retoma las recetas,<br />

técnicas e ingredientes<br />

nacionales y las combina<br />

con los propios de la alta<br />

cocina internacional. En<br />

Tijuana y otros lugares<br />

en Baja California, ha<br />

surgido la cocina fusión<br />

con el nombre de Baja<br />

Med que combina los<br />

ingredientes típicos de<br />

la cocina mexicana con<br />

los de las cocinas mediterráneas,<br />

como el aceite<br />

de olivo, y las asiáticas,<br />

como el limoncillo (hierba<br />

limón), siempre destacando<br />

los ingredientes<br />

frescos cosechos en Baja<br />

California. En México, la<br />

entomofagia ha sido una<br />

práctica común desde la -<br />

época prehispánica, como<br />

lo prueba el Códice Florentino<br />

escrito por fray<br />

Bernardino de Sahagún,<br />

en donde se describe el<br />

consumo de 96 especies<br />

de insectos comestibles.<br />

A la fecha los insectos<br />

siguen consumiéndose<br />

en todo el país, llegando<br />

a considerarse, en<br />

algunos casos, un manjar<br />

de alto precio. Sin<br />

embargo los insectos no<br />

solo han formado parte<br />

de la alimentación de los<br />

seres humanos si no que<br />

también de sus creencias<br />

donde son vistos como<br />

deidades y reverenciados,<br />

también los podemos encontrar<br />

en el arte como<br />

<br />

mando parte de sus artesanías<br />

y esculturas.<br />

Los insectos comestibles<br />

en México se producen<br />

de acuerdo a la época del<br />

año, por ejemplo, los -<br />

“sechan” durante las primeras<br />

lluvias del año,<br />

cuando comienza a llover<br />

los chinicuiles salen de<br />

la tierra por debajo del<br />

maguey y es en ese momento<br />

que son recolectados.<br />

Actualmente hay<br />

poblaciones en donde<br />

estos insectos son criados<br />

colocando en una olla de<br />

barro una capa de chinicuiles<br />

vivos y otra de tortillas<br />

de maíz. En cuanto<br />

a los gusanos de maguey,<br />

éstos crecen dentro de<br />

las pencas, por lo que las<br />

pencas deben ser destruidas<br />

ya que es aproximadamente<br />

un gusano por<br />

penca, razón por la que<br />

es un platillo muy caro<br />

y de temporada. ¿Sabía<br />

usted que de cada diez<br />

animales, ocho son insec-<br />

<br />

numéricamente hablando,<br />

son el grupo animal predominante<br />

sobre la Tierra.<br />

Aunque esta tradición<br />

ha perdido fuerza con el<br />

paso del tiempo, es importante<br />

mencionar que<br />

los insectos comestibles<br />

pueden ser considerados<br />

como una alternativa alimenticia<br />

por su gran<br />

aporte de nutrientes, por<br />

lo que podrían ser útiles<br />

para contrarrestar la<br />

desnutrición, no sólo en<br />

México, sino en muchas<br />

regiones del planeta.<br />

El acto de cocinar en<br />

México es considerado<br />

una de las actividades<br />

más importantes y cumple<br />

funciones sociales y rituales<br />

determinantes, tales<br />

como la instalación del<br />

<br />

de quince años en México.<br />

La profesionalización<br />

del trabajo culinario en<br />

México sigue siendo<br />

predominantemente femeni<br />

no es común ver al<br />

frente de las cocinas de<br />

restaurantes y fondas a<br />

mujeres que, al adquirir<br />

el grado de excelencia,<br />

son nombradas mayoras,<br />

denominación que en la<br />

época colonial se les daba<br />

a las jefas de las cocinas<br />

de las haciendas y que<br />

ahora sería equivalente al<br />

chef europeo. Una de las<br />

características de la gastronomía<br />

mexicana es que<br />

no hacen distinción entre<br />

la llamada cocina cotidiana<br />

y la alta cocina. Así,<br />

aunque existen platillos<br />

típicos festivos, como el<br />

mole o los tamales, éstos<br />

pueden consumirse<br />

cualquier día del año, lo<br />

mismo en una casa particular<br />

que en un restaurante<br />

lujoso o en una pequeña<br />

fonda sin un valor ritual<br />

especial. La gastronomía<br />

mexicana siempre ha<br />

<br />

<br />

cia barroca, resultado de<br />

un mestizaje culinario, y<br />

representa en mucho la<br />

visión que los mexicanos<br />

tienen del mundo.<br />

Continuación de la página anterior<br />

De esta forma, la zona<br />

norte del país, de clima<br />

más agreste y seco, ofrece<br />

una cocina más bien<br />

austera, de sabores sencillos;<br />

en cambio, en el<br />

sureste, donde la tierra es<br />

más generosa, se da una<br />

explosión de sabores con<br />

una cantidad hasta ahora<br />

desconocida de platillos y<br />

recetarios locales. En las<br />

zonas urbanas, debido a<br />

la integración de las mujeres<br />

a la fuerza laboral,<br />

<br />

del estilo de vida occidental<br />

(principalmente de los<br />

Estados Unidos), se ha ido<br />

perdiendo la tradición de<br />

cocinar en casa. Sin embargo,<br />

se considera que<br />

las fondas (una versión<br />

mexicana de los bistró<br />

francees, lugares donde<br />

comer fuera a medio día<br />

de forma económica) son<br />

un reservo de las recetas<br />

tradicionales. Las bebidas<br />

alcohólicas que acompañan<br />

a la gastronomía<br />

mexicana pueden beberse<br />

ahora en casi todo el mundo.<br />

Una excepción tal vez<br />

sea el pulque, cuyos expendios,<br />

las casi extintas<br />

«pulquerías», solo pueden<br />

encontrarse en México y<br />

solo en ciertos estados de<br />

la república. Sitios populares<br />

donde se rinde culto<br />

a Mayahuel (diosa de la<br />

bebida prehispánica del<br />

pulque) hoy en día son<br />

S<br />

S<br />

casi museos. Las bebidas<br />

alcohólicas más conocidas<br />

fuera y dentro de México<br />

son: el mezcal (bebida<br />

fermentada del agave)<br />

cuyo aroma y sabor le<br />

hacen inconfundible, así<br />

como el tequila, licor<br />

nacional, aperitivo, en<br />

su origen, que se suele<br />

beber acompañado de<br />

sal y limón o junto con<br />

«sangrita» (bebida picante<br />

con jugo de naranja o<br />

de jitomate). El tequila<br />

recibió la denominación<br />

de origen el 13 de octubre<br />

de 1977, fecha a partir<br />

de la cual se incrementó<br />

la calidad en su producción<br />

y por consiguiente<br />

aumento su proyección<br />

internacional. Con esta<br />

denominación de origen<br />

ningún otro país puede<br />

producir tequila. Otra<br />

bebida típica el tepache,<br />

bebida producida de la<br />

fermentación de cáscara<br />

de piña, término que procede<br />

del náhuatl “tepiatl”.<br />

La elaboración del tepache<br />

requiere de cuatro<br />

días: en los dos primeros<br />

se dejan reposar trozos de<br />

pulpa y cáscara de piña<br />

en una olla de barro con<br />

clavos y canela, después<br />

se le agrega una mezcla<br />

de cebada y piloncillo,<br />

previamente hervidos, los<br />

cuales se dejan fermentar<br />

otros dos días. Aguas<br />

frescas es el nombre que<br />

se da en México a un tipo<br />

de bebidas no alcohólicas<br />

a base de agua, frutas<br />

o granos, y azúcar. Las<br />

aguas frescas más populares<br />

son el agua de jamaica,<br />

de limón de naran-<br />

abores Del outhwest<br />

1 cinnamon stick<br />

2 cups coconut water, can be fresh or canned<br />

1 tablespoon vanilla extract<br />

3 cups milk<br />

1 1/4 cup sugar<br />

Place the rice in a bowl, cover with hot<br />

Bishop Schuler, was named<br />

in 1915. He was a great<br />

supporter of the educational<br />

movement begun by the<br />

Sisters of Loretto. He and<br />

Mother Praxedes Carty, the<br />

dynamo behind the construction<br />

of Loretto Academy,<br />

became good friends.<br />

She had been Superior<br />

General of the Sisters of<br />

Loretto before her appointment<br />

to El Paso in 1922<br />

<br />

possible site for the new<br />

academy was on Arizona<br />

Street but it was deemed to<br />

be “too far out. No means<br />

of transportation! No street<br />

car”. Mother Praxedes<br />

conferred with Joseph<br />

Morgan and Gus Trost<br />

before deciding on the<br />

Trowbridge property. Mr.<br />

Trost was entrusted with<br />

drawing up plans for the<br />

new building. <strong>The</strong> school<br />

opened its doors to students<br />

in September 1923. St.<br />

Joseph Academy became<br />

a residence for the Sisters<br />

who were teaching in the<br />

parochial schools in the<br />

city and continued as a day<br />

school until 1954. It took<br />

fourteen years to complete<br />

the three main units of<br />

Loretto Academy.<br />

Hotel Paso del Norte<br />

<strong>The</strong> hotel was designed by<br />

Trost & Trost and opened in<br />

1912. <strong>The</strong> hotel was extensively<br />

remodeled in 2004<br />

and renamed the Camino<br />

Real El Paso Hotel. <strong>The</strong><br />

building was added to the<br />

National Register of Historic<br />

in 1874. Cards showing images increased in number<br />

during the 1880s. Images of the newly built<br />

Eiffel Tower in 1889 and 1890 gave impetus to the<br />

postcard, leading to the so-called “golden age” of<br />

the picture postcard in years following the mid-<br />

1890s. Early postcards often showcased photography<br />

of nude women. <strong>The</strong>se were commonly know<br />

as French postcards, due to the large number of<br />

El Paso High School<br />

This is the oldest operating high school in El Paso,<br />

Texas. It is also known as <strong>The</strong> Lady on the Hill.<br />

<br />

lowed to print postcards, and it held its monopoly<br />

until May 19, 1898, when Congress passed the<br />

Private Mailing Card Act, which allowed private<br />

publishers and printers to produce postcards. Initially,<br />

the United States government prohibited<br />

private companies from calling their cards “postcards”,<br />

so they were known as “souvenir cards”.<br />

<strong>The</strong>se cards had to be labeled “Private Mailing<br />

Cards”. This prohibition was rescinded on December<br />

24, 1901, from when private companies<br />

could use the word “postcard”. Postcards were<br />

not allowed to have a divided back and correspondents<br />

could only write on the front of the postcard.<br />

This was known as the “undivided back” era of<br />

<br />

lowed private citizens to write on the address side<br />

of a postcard. It was on this date that postcards<br />

were allowed to have a “divided back”.<br />

On these cards the back is divided into two sections:<br />

the left section is used for the message and<br />

the right for the address. Thus began the Golden<br />

Age of American postcards, which peaked in 1910<br />

with the introduction of tariffs on German-printed<br />

postcards, and ended by 1915, when World War<br />

I ultimately disrupted the printing and import of<br />

<br />

between 1907 and 1910 was particularly popular-<br />

among rural and small-town women in Northern<br />

U.S. states. Postcards, in the form of government<br />

postal cards and privately printed souvenir cards,<br />

became very popular as a result of the Columbian<br />

Exposition, held in Chicago in 1893, after postcards<br />

featuring buildings were distributed at the<br />

fair. In 1908, more than 677 million postcards<br />

were mailed. <strong>The</strong> “white border” era, named for<br />

obvious reasons, lasted from about 1916 to 1930.<br />

Linen postcards were produced in great quantity<br />

from 1931 to 1959.<br />

Despite the name, linen postcards were not produced<br />

on a linen fabric, but used newer printing<br />

processes that used an inexpensive card stock<br />

<br />

with a pattern which resembled linen. <strong>The</strong> face<br />

of the cards is distinguished by a textured cloth<br />

appearance which makes them easily recognizable.<br />

<strong>The</strong> reverse of the card is smooth, like earlier<br />

postcards. <strong>The</strong> rag content in the card stock<br />

allowed a much more colorful and vibrant image<br />

to be printed than the earlier “white border” style.<br />

Due to the inexpensive production and bright realistic<br />

images they became popular. One of the better<br />

known linen era postcard manufacturers was<br />

<br />

immensely popular “large letter linen” postcards<br />

(among many others). <strong>The</strong> card design featured a<br />

large letter spelling of a state or place with smaller<br />

photos inside the letters. <strong>The</strong> design can still be<br />

found today. Manufacturers include Tichnor and<br />

Company, Haynes, Stanley Piltz, E.C Kropp, and<br />

the Asheville Postcard Company.<br />

WHAT ARE YOU EATING?!<br />

YOU ARE WHAT YOU EAT.<br />

DON’T ASSUME! READ THE LABEL. IT’S YOUR HEALTH.<br />

■ <strong>SWChronicle</strong> EDU© La Vanguardia • What Are You Eating? • Nemours®<br />

We Are What We Eat<br />

<br />

work for you is to look at the entire label.<br />

If you focus on only one part, like<br />

calories or vitamins,<br />

you may not be getting<br />

the full story, like<br />

how much sugar or fat<br />

is in the product.<br />

Serving Size: Always<br />

start with the serving<br />

size amount. That’s<br />

because all the information<br />

on the rest of<br />

the label — from calories<br />

to vitamins — is<br />

based on that amount.<br />

<strong>The</strong> label will also<br />

list how many servings<br />

are in the package.<br />

Even things that<br />

seem like they’d be a<br />

single serving, such<br />

as a bottle of juice or<br />

packet of chips, may<br />

contain more than one<br />

serving. If you eat or<br />

drink the whole thing,<br />

you’re getting more<br />

vitamins and minerals<br />

but you’re also getting<br />

way more calories,<br />

sugar, fat, and other<br />

stuff that you might<br />

not want.<br />

Calories: A calorie is<br />

a way to measure how<br />

much energy a food<br />

provides to your body. <strong>The</strong> number on<br />

the food label shows how many calories<br />

are in one serving of that food..<br />

<strong>The</strong> calories from fat number tells you<br />

how many calories in that serving come<br />

from fat. For most people, about 30% of<br />

all the calories they eat in a day should<br />

come from fat. So if you eat 2,000 calories<br />

a day, about 600 of these calories<br />

should come from fat.<br />

Sodium: Small amounts of sodium<br />

<br />

also helps the body transmit electrical<br />

signals through nerves. But too much<br />

sodium can increase water retention<br />

and blood pressure<br />

in people who are<br />

sensitive to it.<br />

Fiber: is not digested<br />

and helps<br />

keep your digestive<br />

system healthy. Fiber<br />

can also help<br />

reduce cholesterol<br />

levels. Best of all,<br />

<br />

and it can help you<br />

feel full. So check<br />

the label and pick<br />

foods that have at<br />

<br />

ber per serving.<br />

Percentage Daily values: <strong>The</strong>se percentages<br />

show the amounts of nutrients<br />

an average person will get from eating<br />

one serving of that food. For the purposes<br />

of food labels,<br />

the government chose<br />

an “average” person<br />

as someone who needs<br />

2,000 calories a day.<br />

So if the label on a<br />

particular food shows<br />

it provides 25% of vitamin<br />

D, that 25% is<br />

for a person who eats<br />

2,000 calories a day.<br />

Fat: Total fat shows<br />

how much fat is in<br />

a single serving of<br />

food. Although eating<br />

too much fat can lead<br />

to obesity and health<br />

problems, our bodies<br />

do need some fat every<br />

day. Fats are an<br />

important source of<br />

energy and provide insulation<br />

and cushioning<br />

for the skin, bones,<br />

and internal organs.<br />

Fat also distributes<br />

and helps the body<br />

store certain vitamins.<br />

Cholesterol: it’s important<br />

to production<br />

of vitamin D and<br />

some hormones, and<br />

to building many other<br />

substances in the<br />

body. <strong>The</strong> liver manufactures most of<br />

the cholesterol a person needs, but cholesterol<br />

is also found in the foods we<br />

eat. Blood cholesterol comes in two<br />

major types: HDL (the “good” kind)<br />

and LDL (the “bad” kind). Too much<br />

LDL cholesterol in a person’s blood increases<br />

the risk of heart disease.<br />

Total Carbohydrates: <strong>The</strong> best sources<br />

of carbohydrates are fruits and vegetables,<br />

along with whole-grain<br />

foods like cereals, breads, pasta,<br />

and brown rice. Most of<br />

your daily calorie intake should<br />

come from carbohydrates.<br />

Vitamins and Minerals: It<br />

goes without saying that you<br />

want to choose foods that are<br />

high in a variety of vitamins<br />

and minerals. <strong>The</strong> FDA requires<br />

food manufacturers to include<br />

information about vitamin A,<br />

vitamin C, calcium and iron.<br />

Protein: Most of the body, including<br />

muscles, skin, and the<br />

immune system, is made up of protein.<br />

If the body doesn’t get enough fat and<br />

carbohydrates, it can use protein for energy.<br />

So be sure the foods you eat give<br />

you some protein. -End

THE SCHOOL THAT CAN, CAN.<br />

BUILT AMID APACHE ATTACKS<br />

■ <strong>SWChronicle</strong> EDU© <strong>The</strong> Chieftain • Binged Beauty • Our Past Has A Future And It Is Our Present©<br />

Original Article Hillsboro 1877<br />

-For early settlers of Hillsboro,<br />

the Apaches provided the primary<br />

threat. <strong>The</strong> miners and settlers<br />

were in the middle of Apache<br />

hunting grounds. Mickey Monnett<br />

wrote in a Password article,<br />

<br />

<br />

<br />

<br />

Many unmarked<br />

graves of miners caught<br />

alone or unaware litter the Black<br />

Range Mountains, according to<br />

Monnett. In his monograph on<br />

Hillsboro, F. Stanley depicted the<br />

town as “one devilish, hair raising,<br />

gun toting wild spot on the map.”<br />

Monnett noted that outlaws such<br />

as Butch Cassidy, the Kingston<br />

Gang and the Farmington Gang -<br />

“operated in this area.” <strong>The</strong> miners<br />

remained undeterred; by 1878,<br />

the town had a population of 250.<br />

By 1882, that number had grown<br />

<br />

opened in 1879 and has never<br />

closed. <strong>The</strong> history of the Hilsboro<br />

Public School affords a notable<br />

example of the devotion to<br />

the cause of education which is<br />

one of the noblest characteristics<br />

of the American people. <strong>The</strong><br />

discovery of the gold mines in<br />

1878 started the town and during<br />

the next year, a school was started<br />

by subscription.<br />

<strong>The</strong> country at this period was<br />

being continually raided by the<br />

Apaches, and some of the ladies<br />

still residing at Hillsboro have<br />

gone through thrilling experiences<br />

of fright and danger. Under such -<br />

SW CHRONICLE EDU©<br />

circumstances it would not have<br />

been surprising if the children<br />

had been left to gather knowledge<br />

as best they could, but a school<br />

was organized in 1879 and Mrs.<br />

Vaughn a present resident of the<br />

Mimbres Valley, was engaged as<br />

teacher. <strong>The</strong> gold diggers generously<br />

responded to the call upon<br />

them on behalf of the community<br />

youngsters. <strong>The</strong> community<br />

increased and in 1881 a school<br />

district was organized and the directors<br />

proceeded to build a adobe<br />

schoolhouse. <strong>The</strong> building which<br />

still endures, a monument to the<br />

enterprise and generosity of the<br />

early settlers, cost $1200, and of<br />

this amount $800 was secured by<br />

voluntary subscription. This was<br />

FROM NEW YORK TO NEW MEXICO<br />

BILLY STEPS OUT IN STYLE<br />

■ <strong>SWChronicle</strong> EDU© <strong>The</strong> Chieftain • Binged Beauty • Our Past Has A Future And It Is Our Present©<br />

Billy <strong>The</strong> Kid November 23, 1859<br />

-Born in a poor Irish neighborhood on New York<br />

City’s East Side. Before he was shot dead at age<br />

21, Billy reputedly killed 27 people in the American<br />

West. Billy the Kid called himself William H.<br />

Bonney, but his original name was probably Henry<br />

McCarty. Bonney was his mother Catherine’s maiden<br />

<br />

longtime companion, William Antrin, who acted as<br />

Billy’s father after his biological father disappeared.<br />

Around 1865, Billy and his brother traveled west to<br />

Indiana with their mother and Antrin, and by 1870<br />

the group was in Wichita, Kansas. <strong>The</strong>y soon moved<br />

farther west, down the cattle trails, and in 1873 a legally<br />

married Catherine and William Antrin appeared<br />

on record in New Mexico territory. In 1874, Billy’s<br />

mother died of lung cancer in Silver City. Billy soon<br />

left his brother and stepfather and took off into the<br />

New Mexico sagebrush. He worked as a ranch hand<br />

<br />

of reservation Apache Indians, in the Guadalupe<br />

Mountains. According to legend, it was not long before<br />

Billy killed another man, a blacksmith in Camp<br />

Grant, Arizona. Billy the Kid, as people began calling<br />

him, next found work as a rancher and bodyguard for<br />

John Tunstall, a English-born rancher who operated<br />

out of Lincoln, New Mexico. When members of a<br />

rival cattle gang killed Tunstall, in 1878, Billy became<br />

involved in the so-called Lincoln County War.<br />

Enraged at Tunstall’s murder, Billy became a leader<br />

Bert Geer Phillips (1868-1956)<br />

As a founder of the Taos Society of Artists,<br />

Bert Phillips helped define the genre of “Taos Painting.”<br />

As a result of their promotional efforts, the members<br />

of the Taos Society of Artists successfully made<br />

their representational paintings synonymous with the<br />

art of New Mexico, not just the art of Taos. Our Washerwoman’s<br />

Family alludes to the growing economic<br />

and social tensions region’s artists and the locals.<br />

of a vigilante posse of “regulators” sent to arrest<br />

the killers. No arrests were made, however. Two of<br />

the murderers were shot dead by Billy’s posse, and<br />

a worsening blood feud soon escalated into all-out<br />

warfare. After Billy’s gang shot dead Lincoln Sheriff<br />

Bill Brady, who had sanctioned Tunstall’s murder,<br />

Billy’s enemies conspired with the territorial authorities<br />

to do away with the regulators. In July 1878,<br />

the rival gang surrounded the house where Billy and<br />

his gang were staying just outside of town. <strong>The</strong> siege<br />

<br />

from nearby Fort Stanton was called in. Still, Billy<br />

and his gang refused to surrender. Suddenly, the regulators<br />

made a mass escape, and Billy and several of<br />

the other regulators miraculously managed to shoot<br />

their way out of town. After more than two years on<br />

the run, Billy was arrested by Lincoln Sheriff Pat<br />

Garrett, a man Billy had previously befriended before<br />

Garrett became a lawman. In April 1881, Billy was<br />

found guilty of the murder of Sheriff Brady and was<br />

sentenced to hang. On April 28, two weeks before his<br />

scheduled execution, Billy wrested a gun from one of<br />

his jailers and shot him and another deputy dead in a<br />

daring escape that received considerable national at-<br />

<br />

tracked Billy down at a ranch near Fort Sumner, New<br />

Mexico. He gained access to the house where Billy<br />

was visiting a girlfriend and then surprised him in the<br />

dark. Before the outlaw could offer resistance, Garret<br />

eagle-feather war bonnet and sitting next to a large<br />

<strong>The</strong> pueblo itself is located 27 miles northwest of<br />

in the scenic mountains and rugged mesas<br />

of northern New Mexico near the<br />

Colorado border.<br />

hundred or more years earlier.<br />

<strong>The</strong> Laguna Pueblo<br />

With a population of about 7,700, this is the<br />

largest Keresan-speaking pueblo.<br />

Historians believe the ancestors of the pueblo have occupied<br />

the Laguna homelands since at least A.D. 1300.<br />

Primary and middle school education is provided by<br />

that their goal is to create a human-alien<br />

ethnic group of Native Americans. <strong>The</strong> Pueblo of<br />

Nambé has existed since the 14th century and was a<br />

arrival of Spanish colonists in the very early 17th century.<br />

Nambé is known for a distinctive style of pottery.<br />

<strong>The</strong> Navajo Nation<br />

It is the largest land area retained by a U.S. tribe<br />

Ohkay Owingeh was previously known as San<br />

of an Indian meeting ground, its people so powerful<br />

that only an O’ke native could declare war for<br />

the Pueblo Indians. Although called a Taoseño, Pueblo<br />

Chipotle Chicken Tinga Tacos<br />

Prep Time 20 minutes<br />

1 small white onion<br />

1 tablespoon olive oil or vegetable oil<br />

1 can (15oz) diced tomato<br />

1 jar (16oz) chipotle salsa<br />

1 tablespoon vinegar, preferably apple cider<br />

4 cups chicken (loosely packed), coarsely<br />

shredded, cooked<br />

1 teaspoon salt<br />

8-12warm tortillas<br />

Salt<br />

2 ripe avocados peeled, pitted and diced<br />

3-4 tablespoons Mexican queso añejo or Parmesan<br />

<br />

cilantro, chopped, for garnish<br />

In a large skillet, cook the onion in the oil over<br />

medium heat until crisp-tender and just beginning<br />

to brown, about 5 minutes. Stir in the salsa,<br />

tomatoes with their juice and the vinegar. Simmer,<br />

stirring regularly until quite thick, about<br />

5 minutes. Stir in the chicken, cool, then taste<br />

and season with salt. Serve the mixture in warm<br />

tortillas. Let guests add avocado, cheese and cilantro<br />

to taste. For tostadita appetizers, arrange<br />

24 thick tortilla chips on one or more serving<br />

platters. Top each with a heaping tablespoon of<br />

the chicken tinga, a few pieces of avocado, a<br />

sprinkling of cheese and cilantro, and they’re<br />

ready to pass around. -End<br />

TACOS<br />

Seared Scallops Chorizo Potato Tacos<br />

<br />

1 pound (about 4 medium) red skin boiling potatoes, cut<br />

into ½-inch pieces<br />

1 pound scallops<br />

1 or 2 tablespoons vegetable or olive oil / salt<br />

Freshly ground black pepper<br />

12 ounces (about 1 1/2 cups)fresh Mexican chorizo<br />

sausage, casings removed<br />

4 large green onions, roots and withered outer leaves<br />

trimmed off, cut into 1/2-inch pieces<br />

<br />

<br />

tablespoon salt and bring to a boil. Add the potatoes<br />

and simmer over medium heat until tender, about 12<br />

minutes. Drain. Pat the scallops dry with paper towels.<br />

Heat a very large (12-inch) skillet or griddle over<br />

medium-high (for best results, choose a skillet or<br />

griddle that’s heavy and non-stick or well-seasoned<br />

cast iron). Add the oil, and, when quite hot, add the<br />

scallops in an uncrowded layer. Sprinkle with salt<br />

and pepper. Sear, turning occasionally, until golden,<br />

only about 2 minutes total. (With high heat, you<br />

will be able to sear the scallops without overcooking<br />

them.) Scoop onto a wide plate. Add the chorizo<br />

and green onions. Cook over medium heat, breaking<br />

up any clumps of chorizo, just until the sausage has<br />

rendered its fat, 6 or 7 minutes. Add the drained potatoes<br />

and continue cooking, occasionally scraping<br />

up any sticky bits, until the potatoes begin to look<br />

crusty-brown, about 15 minutes. Cut the scallops<br />

into pieces that resemble the diced potatoes. When<br />

the potatoes are<br />

browned, add the<br />

scallops. Mix everything<br />

together<br />

as the scallops heat<br />

for a minute or so,<br />

then scoop the mixture<br />

into a serving<br />

bowl. -End<br />

pick the greatest albums<br />

asked a similar group of<br />

100 experts to pick the<br />

best albums of the 2000s.<br />

From those results, Rolling<br />

Stone created this<br />

new list of the greatest<br />

albums of all time. Music<br />

is an art form whose<br />

medium is sound and silence.<br />

of music are pitch<br />

(and its associated concepts<br />

tempo, meter, and<br />

articulation), dynamics,<br />

and the sonic qualities of<br />

timbre and texture (which<br />

are sometimes termed<br />

the “color” of a musical<br />

sound). Music is performed<br />

with a vast range<br />

of instruments and with<br />

vocal techniques ranging<br />

from singing to rapping,<br />

and there are both solely<br />

instrumental pieces and<br />

A Tribute To Dick Poe<br />

by Leon Claire Metz<br />

1999<br />

“I’d like to take you on a<br />

historical journey back<br />

through time. <strong>The</strong> time<br />

was 1928 the same year<br />

<br />

created, NBC network was<br />

born, plans to develop Rim<br />

Road were in the works<br />

and ground breaking ceremony<br />

for the El Paso International Airport began.<br />

This was the year that A.B. Poe started Poe Mo-<br />

<br />

A.B. Poe Motor Company was situated on busy<br />

Texas Street with Chrysler, DeSoto and Plymouth.<br />

A.B. Poe was an El Pasoan in every sense of the<br />

word. He was elected a City Alderman and served<br />

until 1931 when his role as El Paso’s 23rd Mayor<br />

began.<br />

In 1937 spearheaded a campaign to raise $50,000<br />

for <strong>The</strong> Pleasant View Elderly Home and $25,000<br />

to improve the Salvation Army’s home and hospital.<br />

In 1948 A.B. Poe donated a mobile x-ray unit<br />

to the El Paso Texas Tuberculosis Foundation -it<br />

treated more than 30,000 El Pasoans. He also donated<br />

a home to the TB Foundation to utilize for<br />

screenings and treatments.<br />

Another little known fact was that A.B. Poe was<br />

<br />

City Hall in 1926. This location later moved to San<br />

Jacinto Plaza. From <strong>The</strong> Children’s Safety Club to<br />

community Christmas Parties, A.B. Poe remained<br />

dedicated to the city that was responsible for his<br />

business successes.<br />

By 1964 Dick Poe had taken over the reigns. <strong>The</strong><br />

Texas Street lot was packed with cars in the showroom,<br />

on the lot and on the roof. Without more<br />

room it was time to move the dealer ship and move<br />

Mr. Poe did to what he considered the far east side.<br />

6501 Montana was the address and it was the beginning<br />

of the Montana Motor Mile -as many other<br />

dealers followed in his footsteps. From the thousands<br />

of past and present customers in the Dick<br />

Poe Family of Dealerships, I’d like to say thanks<br />

Dick.” -Leon Claire Metz 1999<br />

MARTY ROBBINS SAYS<br />

IT’S ALL ABOUT ROSA<br />

ORIGINAL STORY EL PASO TEXAS 1960<br />

Marty Robins El Paso<br />

-Out in the West Texas town of El Paso, I fell in<br />

<br />

me in Rosa’s Cantina... So runs the song “El Paso,”<br />

which Marty Robbins, who came to El Paso today,<br />

has made the most warbled ballad in the world.<br />

<br />

<br />

asking me if it’s a real bar in Juarez or El Paso.”<br />

<strong>The</strong> Chamber of Commerce, in appreciation of the<br />

<br />

place myself, I made it up for the<br />

song.” -Marty Robbins<br />

fact that Marty has<br />

sold 3,500,000 records<br />

of the song,<br />

presented a real<br />

live beautiful “Felina”<br />

to the composer<br />

today at the<br />

famed International<br />

Club. She is<br />

Cira Serros, an El<br />

Paso model who<br />

also welcomed<br />

King Baudouin<br />

of the Belgians to this west Texas town a year<br />

ago. Cira, of course, is not wicked at all, but the<br />

21-year-old beauty could charm a cowboy off his<br />

best horse.<br />

It was all in fun and not only enlivened the luncheon<br />

but added to the immense publicity the song<br />

has created. Robbins has visited El Paso before. On<br />

a previous trip he got the inspiration for the song<br />

that is now No. 1 on the Billboard and Cash Box<br />

polls.<br />

He was driving into El Paso on the Carlsbad highway<br />

at night and there, spread before him, were<br />

the twinkling lights of El Paso and Juarez. “That<br />

view inspired me,” Mr. Robbins said. “<strong>The</strong> words<br />

came to me right then -a song about the old town<br />

of El Paso. Columbia wouldn’t record it. I worked<br />

it over again and again,” Marty related. “I worked<br />

on that song for three years, off and on. But instead<br />

of making it shorter it got longer. I couldn’t<br />

tell the story in less than four minutes and 37 seconds.”<br />

Meanwhile Marty continued with his other<br />

compositions. He sang with Grand Old Opry in<br />

Nashville, Tenn. His career had started in his home<br />

town, Phoenix, after his discharge from the Navy<br />

after World War II. “Finally I gave up,” Marty said.<br />

“I couldn’t make the song any shorter. So then<br />

Columbia went ahead and recorded it. It was four<br />

minutes and 37 seconds long.” -END<br />

SCHOOL BAND DOES A<br />

‘MAJOR’ RAZZBERRY<br />

■ <strong>SWChronicle</strong> EDU© <strong>The</strong> Gazette ■ City Backyard Beats!<br />

ORIGINAL STORY EL PASO 1932<br />

Austin High School’s band was being reorganized<br />

today after Principal H.B. Fort ordered it disbanded<br />

because of a trombone “razzberry” chorus played by<br />

some of its members. L. A. Kirchner, bandmaster<br />

at Austin High school, said the incident that led to<br />

the disbandment occurred as the band assembled on<br />

Montana St. just before the parade. He said some of<br />

the boys, were laughing, “cutting-up,” and producing<br />

discordant sounds on their instruments, when<br />

Maj. Moore hurried up and ordered them to quiet<br />

down. <strong>The</strong> hush that followed as he walked away<br />

was broken by the unmistakable blare that only a<br />

trombone can produce, when expertly manipulated.<br />

-Traveling by train to California, Elvis was mobbed<br />

by fans in El Paso Texas on April 20, 1960. 2000<br />

sneaked through<br />

police with<br />

a borrowed suitcase<br />

and boarded<br />

the train with<br />

other passengers<br />

getting on. She<br />

managed to wangle permission to enter the car with<br />

members of the press, and then with lady-like poise,<br />

accepted a kiss on the cheek from<br />

Elvis. “I don’t think I’ll ever wash that cheek again,”<br />

she said. Elvis appeared in the lounge car for a brief<br />

press conference dressed in black velvet pants, black<br />

patent leather shoes, and open-necked red shirt. He<br />

had a slight yellow cast on his handsome features<br />

and his eyes looked sleepy. “It’ll take me a few seconds<br />

to get woke up,” Presley told newsmen, and<br />

started signing autographs. He explained that he had<br />

been taking a nap. “I’m not going to get married, not<br />

now anyway,” he said. “But if I met the right girl,<br />

why, I’d marry her right off the bat!”<br />

Elvis said he wants to progress into more dramatic<br />

<br />

“I’ve been through here lots of times. I’m sort of a<br />

West Texas boy, after all. I once spent some time<br />

just strolling around here and Juarez by myself. I’d<br />

sure give it a try again right now if the kids would<br />

let me!”<br />

When asked about his next recording, he started to<br />

sing Out in the West Texas town of El Paso..., “ He<br />

interrupted the cheers by saying, “Whoops, I’m not<br />

Marty Robbins, am I?” He said that his next recording<br />

will be up to Colonel Parker his manager. <strong>The</strong><br />

crowd hung on until the train pulled out a little after<br />

midnight. -END<br />

In loving memory to an El Paso<br />

legend, a friend and an inspiration.<br />

Highway to Hell 1979<br />

Bon Scott was a bourbon-swilling force of nature,<br />

and by AC/DC’s fourth LP, he and guitarist<br />

Angus Young had become a one-two punch<br />

with killer songs (like the bulldozing title track)<br />

to match. Scott’s wicked ways caught up with<br />

him, however: He was dead six months after<br />

Highway hit shelves.<br />

<br />

<br />

<br />

with virtually no radio support, began to amass<br />

a live following. <strong>The</strong> band’s most recent album,<br />

<br />

<br />

<br />

<br />

and blues-based hard rock sound. Although the<br />

American branch of Atlantic Records had reject-<br />

<br />

Cheap, it now believed the band was poised to<br />

<br />

a producer who could give them a friendly sound.<br />

Is This It 2001<br />

<strong>The</strong> Strokes the debut from these mod raga-<br />

<br />

made New York’s shadows sound vicious and<br />

exciting again. Is This It mixed Velvet Underground<br />

grime and skinny-tie New Wave jangle<br />

with Julian Casablancas’ Lower East Side dispatches<br />

sometimes acidic, always full of great<br />

melody.<br />

<br />

<br />

<br />

<br />

compositions largely through live takes during<br />

the recording sessions, while songwriter Julian<br />

Casablancas continued to detail the lives and<br />

relationships of urban youth. Following the com-<br />

<br />

promotional world tour before its release. <strong>The</strong><br />

album’s cover photograph courted controversy<br />

for being too sexually explicit and was replaced<br />

R.E.M. MURMURS 1983<br />

<strong>The</strong> founding document of alternative rock, released<br />

just as Gen X was heading off to college.<br />

Though “technically limited,” R.E.M. packed<br />

their songs with cathartic mystery. Peter Buck’s<br />

guitar chimes and Michael Stipe unspools his<br />

low-talker lyrics like they constitute a new language.<br />

It drew critical acclaim for its unusual<br />

<br />

lyrics, guitarist Peter Buck’s jangly guitar style,<br />

and bassist Mike Mills’ melodic basslines.<br />

<br />

<br />

<br />

though not stepping beyond the constructs of traditional<br />

rock music. <strong>The</strong> guitars have a bright,<br />

ring-like chime that brought on comparisons to<br />

<br />

sound of Rickenbacker.<br />

<strong>The</strong> Beetles Rubber Soul 1965<br />

Radios were abuzz with such groundbreaking<br />

singles as “(I Can’t Get No) Satisfaction” and<br />

“Like a Rolling Stone.” That December, the<br />

Beatles met their peers’ challenge head-on with<br />

Rubber Soul, a stunning collection that preserved<br />

the taut pop focus of the band’s earlier<br />

LPs while introducing newfound sophistication<br />

and depth. Producer George Martin described<br />

<br />

new, growing Beatles to the world,” and so it<br />

document the band’s increasing awareness that<br />

the studio could be more than a pit stop between<br />

<br />

we made,” because “we were suddenly hearing<br />

sounds that we weren’t able to hear before.”<br />

And as for why the band’s hearing had grown so<br />

acute, well, that was another aspect of the times.<br />

“<strong>The</strong>re was a lot of experimentation on Rubber<br />

MISS VIKKI CARR THE<br />

VOICE OF EL PASO<br />

ORIGINAL STORY EL PASO TEXAS<br />

Vikki Carr El Paso<br />

-A legendary star of the stage and screen Vikki Carr<br />

has captivated audiences nationally and abroad for<br />

over 50 years with her melodic voice and presence.<br />

She is one of the best-loved and most accomplished<br />

entertainers in the United States, Latin America and<br />

Europe. In her illustrious career she has garnered<br />

four Grammy Awards including a Lifetime Achievement<br />

Award from the Recording Academy and has-<br />

“I was born Florencia Bisenta de<br />

Casillas Martinez Cardona<br />

in El Paso Texas.“ -Vikki Carr<br />

released over<br />

60 best-selling<br />

recordings. She<br />

has performed<br />

for the Queen<br />

<br />

United States<br />

Presidents, wartime<br />

soldiers<br />

in Vietnam and<br />

sold-out audiences<br />

around the<br />

world. She has<br />

<br />

music embraces four languages and she is among<br />

<br />

States and Latin America, paving the way for many<br />

performers today.<br />

Born Florencia Bisenta de Casillas Martinez Cardona<br />

in El Paso. Texas and raised in Southern California,<br />

the eldest of seven children, who would later<br />

change her name to Vikki Carr, began performing at<br />

the age of four singing Adeste Fidelis in Latin at a<br />

Christmas program.<br />

She was signed to a contract with Liberty Records<br />

<br />

became a hit in Australia. That title was soon followed<br />

by the unforgettable release, It Must Be Him,<br />

which charged up the charts in England.<br />

One year later, the single was released in the United<br />

States and earned Carr three Grammy Award nominations.<br />

<strong>The</strong> international hit emerged again when<br />

she and the song were featured in the storyline of<br />

the Academy Award winning movie Moonstruck.<br />

After It Must Be Him came a string of hits including<br />

With Pen In Hand, for which she received her<br />

fourth Grammy Award nomination, <strong>The</strong> Lesson,<br />

Can’t Take My Eyes Off of You and For Once in<br />

My Life. -END<br />

Ziggy Stardust 1972<br />

This album documents one of the most elaborate<br />

self-mythologizing schemes in rock, as<br />

David Bowie created the glittery, messianic alter<br />

ego Ziggy Stardust. <strong>The</strong> glam rock Bowie<br />

made with guitarist Mick Ronson on tracks like<br />

“Hang on to Yourself” and “Suffragette City”<br />

is an irresistible blend of sexy, campy pop and<br />

blues power. <strong>The</strong> anthem “Ziggy Stardust” is<br />

one of rock’s earliest, and best, power ballads.<br />

“I consider myself responsible for a whole new<br />

school of pretensions,” Bowie said at the time.<br />

“<strong>The</strong>y know who they are. Don’t you, Elton?<br />

Just kidding. No, I’m not.”<br />

<strong>The</strong> album presents, albeit vaguely, the story of a<br />

<br />

Ziggy is the human manifestation of an alien being<br />

who is attempting to present humanity with<br />

<br />

<br />

rock star: sexually promiscuous, wild in drug<br />

intake but with a message, ultimately, of peace<br />

and love. He is destroyed both by his own consumptions,<br />

and by the fans he inspired.<br />
