The Pueblo Lore SINGLE ISSUE PRICE $5.00 The pueblo lore Published monthly since 1975 by The area known as Water Barrel Flats is east of the hills known as The Turtle Buttes, which lies south of the Goodpasture settlement on the Beulah highway and north of the St. Charles River. A large portion of this area has recently been sub-divided for housing. During the mid 1920’s, the George Asher and Fred Easely families lived in this area and maintained flocks of turkeys to supplement their incomes. Family members followed the flocks while they foraged for insects in the pastures during the spring and summer months. Around the first of October, the flocks were confined and fed corn to prepare them for the Thanksgiving and Christmas markets. This photograph of the George Asher flock is from the Simonson Collection in the Special Collections Depart- ment of the Robert Hoag Rawlings Library.

When Michael Theis and his group from the library are finished, anyone will be able to search for an article by title, author, date or any of three subject fields. For instance, if someone asked you if you remembered ElRoy Face, you could search the index by name in the subject field and it would tell you that ElRoy Face played for the Pueblo Dodgers in 1951, the article was in the Lore in a certain month and the article included photographs. It would tell you the title of the article and who wrote it. This will indeed be a giant step forward for the PCHS in aiding research. One more item we would like input on. Our library is busting at the seams! The Board has decided that we must cull our shelves of books that do not pertain to Pueblo in general, or at least to history of the area or of the U. S. In the past we have accepted dona- tions from people including donations of hundreds of books at one time and have dutifully cataloged the books and placed them on our shelves. Well the time has come when Sig- mund Freud will have to relinquish his place on the shelves. The question I pose to you is...what shall we do with the books we remove? Shall we have a book sale and then give the remaining books to the prisons for the inmates use? Should we give the to “Books Again” at the public library in the hope that they can be sold, or shall we what? If you have an idea please share it with a board member whose addresses and phone numbers are listed below. It is hard to part with books that have been donated, but we have reached the point where space is a major concern and we are a library of history. —Dwight Hunter —— PUEBLO COUNTY HISTORICAL SOCIETY ((Telephone 719-543-6772 E-Mail: [email protected]) VISIT OUR WEBPAGE www.pueblohistory.org Museum with numerous exhibits related to Pueblo area history located in the Southeastern Colorado Heritage Center, 201 W “B” St. Edward Broadhead Library located on the upper level of the Heritage Center.

The author’s mother, Hallie Nicholas Collyer, was at this time head waitress in the Depot dining room. It was a sort of homecoming for Hallie as she had waitressed in the Depot a number of years earlier, including the time around 1919. In 1935, a single mother with a son entering his teen years, she re- turned to the Depot, and they moved into quarters on the third floor.

THESIS Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Colorado State University-Pueblo in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of MASTER OF ARTS IN HISTORY Department of History COLORADO STATE UNIVERSITY-PUEBLO April 2012 Acknowledgements It is my honor to be adding to the historiography of Colorado and the Chicano Movement by completing the process of researching and writing Reclaiming Aztlan: Southern Colorado and Chicano Activism of the 1970s. Even though I use several topics in this thesis which I feel are vital to describe the history of southern Colorado during the 1970s this is in no way an entire history. Rather, I view my work as an opening salvo for history research to be done by future students and historians using the Ethnic Heritage & Diversity Collection housed in the archives at Colorado State University-Pueblo. I feel that a wealth of information exists pertaining to the Chicano Student Movement. The Juan Federico “Freddie Freak” Miguel Arguello Trujillo Chicano Movement Collection offers an excellent array of material for a historian to address the role of college students during the Chicano Movement in both Colorado and the region.

  • Surviving the Great Depression: Fitzsimons and the New Deal 233
    Surviving the Great Depression: Fitzsimons and the New Deal 233 Chapter Seven Surviving the Great Depression: Fitzsimons and the New Deal ongressman Lawrence Lewis, Democrat of Denver, was recovering from a bad cold as he and other state leaders worked over the weekend to pre- pare for President Franklin Roosevelt’s visit to Denver on Monday, 12 COctober 1936. In this election year, the nation was mired in the depths of the worst economic depression it had ever seen. The Army Medical Department was, like most of the government, financially strapped, and Fitzsimons’ future hung in the balance. As a cost-saving measure the Surgeon General wanted to close the facility and transfer patients to other government hospitals. Regardless of how effectively the Army’s tuberculosis specialists could treat patients, they faced los- ing one of their most powerful weapons—their only tuberculosis center—if the Surgeon General had his way. The success of the Army’s tuberculosis program was now a matter of politics and money as well as science and medicine. Lewis, part of the Colorado contingent advising Roosevelt on his visit, was determined that the president should visit Fitzsimons. (Roosevelt had been there once before, during the 1932 campaign.) Lewis wrote in his personal diary that he had wired a White House assistant, Marvin H. McIntyre, who was traveling on the presidential train, stating, “I strongly urged the desirability of the President visiting Fitzsimons Hospital.”1 McIntyre told Lewis that the president had agreed, remarking that “the Secret Service doesn’t want me to go to Fitzsimons hospital; but I’m going anyway.
