Mystery in Arizona by Julie Campbell
3.0
Haven't read this in ages and ages. Quite nostalgic, but wow are these books dated. Written in the 50's , I originally read them in the 60's when they weren't so much. Like this:
"The stewardess stopped beside their seats then and introduced herself. "I'm a full blooded Apache Indian" she told them. "Barbara Slater is my American name and I was educated in public schools." She slipped into the empty seat beside Di. "My Indian name is too long to remember. So won't you please just call me Babs?"
"You look divine in that trim navy blue uniform", said Di enviously. "When I'm old enough I'm going to try to get a job as an airline hostess."
Babs smiled back at her. "This particular airline hires only full-blooded Indian girls for the New York to Tucson run. Some of us are Papagos and Pimas, and a great many of us are Navajos and Apaches. All of us, of course, have to be high school graduates."
Wow.
