PAGE EIGHT — SECTION D THE ARIZONA DAILY STAR TUCSON, THURSDAY, AUGUST 30, 1979 Sutton's bedroom looks more like a li-
brary, with a bed tossed in for good measure
Howard Sutton with a hawksbill sea turtle and an anteater
to keep the hundreds of books company, and
the kitchen is also an office. The refrigera-
tor competes for space with more stacks of
books and a huge wooden desk, which pro-
vides just enough clear area to seat a
guest .
Sutton said he hopes to acquire land out-
side Douglas someday to build a museum for
all his. souvenirs. He also has plans to ex-
pand the small business he runs, Skull Can-
yon Adventure Co., and offer everything
from xilderness trips to hay rides — the
kinds of old-fashioned activities people have
nearly forgotten, he said.
In the meantime, Sutton paints and works
on his books. He said he has written
28 adventure books and novels, but he avoids
discussion of them. They were written under
another name, when he didn't really feel like
a writer, Sutton said.
His current project, a collection of short
stories and novelettes, will be only the sec-
ond one to carry his true name, he said.
He said the ability to write is "just some-
thing I feel inside," and he finally is proud
enough of his work to put his name on it.
And despite a life already filled with so
much excitement, Sutton is not'likely to quit
soon.
"Well," he said, "I look at life different
from a lot of people. Lots of people retire
and sit around. But me, I'll wait until I get
shot out of the saddle, like the cowboys_ used
to say."

THE ARIZONA DAILY STAR * SECTION D — RAGE THREE
By P.J. ZAPOR
The Arizona Daily Star
They were just trying to start new lives
after World War II, but what they brlilt
turned out to be more than just a good busi-
ness venture -- it has become a South Tuc-
son landmark.
Tucked away on a usually quiet street
between a residential neighborhood and a
potato -chip factory, El Casino Ballroom,
445 E. 26th St., has become well known tr) a
large segment of the population as the plhce
to go for wedding or anniversary recepticins,
concerts, dances, benefit shows and other
occasions calling for a gathering of frie;ids
and relatives.
El Casino was built over a six-month be-
riod by Adolfo Loustaunau, Ben Jacobs and
the lae Ramon Siquieros "with practically
our bare hands," as Loustaunau says.
The three were hoping to get start ed
again after World War II, he said, and they
really didn't dream of the success the place
now enjoys.
For 21 years the trio owned El Casino,
with Loustaunau acting as manager, pro-
moter and sometimes master of ceremonies
for activities there.
Besides renting the ballroom for private
parties, the owners sponsored special bene-
fits, held bingo nights for charities, began a
still -continued tradition of children's
Christmas parties and were hosts to some of
the great entertainment groups of the day.
When the ballroom first opened, for ex-
ample, Harry James and His Orchestra
were among the featured performers for the
Casino's popular weekend dances. And in
1958, the Ink Spots headlined one of the
frequent benefit shows.
An annual highlight for the Mexican -
American community has been the crown-
ing of a festival queen at the ballroom for
Mexican Independence Day each Septem-
ber. El Casino also also is at the center of
many Cinco de Mayo festivities.
In those early post-war days a wedding
party could rent the entire ballroom, includ-
ing its huge dance floor and bandstand,
kitchen and bar for $50 for the entire day or
night, Loustaunau said.
Fun starts at ars early age --Patricia Medrano, 4, left, and
Rosario Cradillas, 6, won't be old enough to have their wedding receptions at
the El Casino Ballroom for a while, but they enjoy the music anyway. As cars
cruised by the jammed parking lot recently, the Casino patrons stopped
dancing to listen to the singing of Joe Hernandez of Little Joe, Johnny y la
Familia..
With seating for 1,200 people and a beau-
tiful hardwood dance floor that measures 46
by 81 feet, El Casino can hold even the
largest of families for any occasion.
Jacobs, Loustaunau and Siquieros sold
the ballroom in 1968 to the present owner,
the Latin-American Social Club, whose
members have -kept up many of the tradi-
tions of the place and added a few of their
own.
Rudy Villasenor, who manages El Casino
for the club, had his own wedding reception
there, was host to another reception there
for his daughter's wedding in 1971 and even
celebrated his 30th wedding anniversary at
the ballroom last November.
Villasenor remembers that at the time of
his wedding, "the Casino was the biggest
and newest ballroom in the city," and at $50
for a reception that ran from 9 in the morn-
ing until 7 in the evening, the price couldn't
be beat.
Now the hall rents for $180 for four hours,
a price that still is the best in town for a
place with sucha large capacity, he said.
The popularity of El Casino is such that
Friday and Saturday nights are booked %olid
for weddings and anniversaries as far afir six
or seven months in advance, Villasenor
said.
Weddings have become such a big busi-
ness at the ballroom that the traditional
Mexican -American patrons are being joined
by growing numbers of Anglos who are just
beginning to discover El Casino.
Some employees of El Casino estimate
that Anglos now make up 25 percent of the
clientele.
The club makes up for relatively -low
rental fees by running its own bar, the man-
ager explained, and that means enough pf a
profit after expenses to enable the L,4tin-
American club to sponsor eight mernbt'rs'
children on scholarships at the University of
Arizona.
Enough is left over for the club to throw
special membership parties several times a
year and Christmas parties for children, t:nd
provide food deliveries to residents of the
Yaqui Indians' Pascua Village southwest of
the city.

By P.J. ZAPOR
The Arizona Daily Star
Unless you are an adherent to the barn -dance school of
relaxation, the El Casino Ballroom probably won't fit your
image of what a popular ballroom should be.
With the rock -and -broken -glass -covered parking lot, the
warehouse -like block walls -and the swarms of low -rider cars
circling endlessly around the area, El Casino does not look
like one of the most popular places in town to hold a wedding
reception.
l
Moving inside, past the ever-present security guards who
check wedding invitations and stamp hands at dances, the
ballroom looks even less like the status symbol it has be-
come.
Words like smoky, bare and loud come to mind at first.
The mind is assaulted by the loud throbbing of Latin music
and the buzz of conversation.
But a negative first impression of El Casino would-be an
unfair evaluation.
If given a second chance, the traditions of El Casino will
take control, and even an unobservant patron would even-
tually realize the ballroom is much more than just a place to
party.
In the more than 30 years it has served as a focal point
for Mexican -American social life, El Casino has evolved into
a way of life for its patrons.
People at El Casino very simply know how to have fun.
Crowds of adults and children enjoy themselves thoroughly
even qn a Sunday night after which most will have to rise
early for work or school.
Little children -race around the building, swinging on the
numerous pillars surrounding the room, and practice their
dancing alongside their parents in groups of three or four or
by themselves.
A young girl wearing the latest in slit -skirt and spike -heel
fashions dances a cumhia with a cowboy in his best Levi's
and a pair of well-worn Sonoran cowboy boots.
A couple with 50 years of marriage behind them boogies
with their grandchildren to a Latin -rock tune by a group
called Brown Express..
A week later, newlyweds of only three hours smile to-
lerantly at each other across the floor-. Each dances mo-
mentarily with a slightly tipsy wedding guest in exchange
for a contribution to their honeymoon fund in the "dollar
dance."
This is the heritage of El Casino.
For the people who go there, the plain surroundings are
immaterial. As Rudy Villasenor, the ballroom manager,
says, "The one thing people like about the Casino is they say
they can take their ties off, let their hair down and enjoy
themselves."
"It's our second home." said Josie Lopez, 20. Lopez and
her friends say they go to El Casino frequently for weddings
and special shows.
Thegirlsgo with friends or parents, they said, not neces-
sarily looking for potential boyfriends. "We just come to
dance," said 24 -year-old Isabel German.
The $9 admission charge to hear three local bands and
popular recording stars Little Joe, Johnny y la Familia
apparently snakes little difference to the young women.
"Lots of different guys Glance with us, and the bands are
good," German said.
Tom and -Connie Shurnaker, a middle-aged couple who
recently moved here from Morenci, say they try to go
dancing about once every week or two, and they find the
music at El Casino much better for the price than they were .
used to in Morenci.
"Dancing _ keeps the body and soul together," Shumaker
said.
George Lovegreen, 24, and Gilbert Velasco, 21, said they :
only go to El Casino when there are popular bands like La
Familia playing. Both said they usually go to other places
to dance, but as Lovegreen said, "You get tired of discos."
The ballroom is also a popular stopping place for poten-
tial candidates in search of signatures for nominating peti-
tions or other support. It is not unusual to see a political
hopeful or two flashing smiles, shaking hands and distribut-
ing buttons and leaflets between band sets.
Just last night, the ballroom was the scene of a dance
honoring Sen. Luis A. Gonzales, D -Tucson.
Set 'em Llp = The Latin-American Social Club makes enough
money from operating a bar at the El Casino Ballroom that it can give
scholarships to members' children. Ballroom manager study Villasenor, dou-
bling as bartender, gives -change, top, and a patron sits out a dance with a
beer.
