"Going to do it again, too. Goodman, a native Arizonan, has practically grown up with Mesa, both as a private citizen and as a public servant. He was born of pioneer Mormon parents at St. David in 1895. In 1905 the family moved to Safford and Goodman made his home there with his parents, three brothers, and four sisters, until he moved into the Phoenix area as a cotton grower, disastrously, in 1920.

The next year, he returned to Safford and in 1923, went to Los Angeles to school to study pharmacy. IX 1924, HE came to Mesa-April 30 was the date. On June 21, 1924 he opened the doors of the Apache Drug at 125 W. Main, its present location. There has been little change, so Goodman says, in the drug store since it wtfs opened, but a look around reveals that statement is not strictly true.

It is a modern drugstore, with a homey, inviting atmosphere. "Oh, we've changed the front a time or two, and we changed the fixture. Oh, yes, we built on to the back a little, but it's about the same," he said. He married Clara Piatt, the daughter of a Mormon physician, Dr. William Piatt, in Safford, June 30, 1916.

TO THIS have been born five children, only one of whom is at home. They are Billy, 34, who is a registered pharmacist, and is in the store with his father; Clarice Sue Pomeroy, 33, whose husband owns a shoe store across the street from the Apache Drug; Dr. Clifford J. Goodman, 31, who will finish his internship at Good Samaritan Hosoital in Phoenix July 1 and will go into private practice; Dr. Harold R.

Goodman, 31, an optometrist with offices in the Goodrich building in Phoenix; and the "baby," 17-year-old Sherry Lynn, who was- graduated' from Mesa High School this spring. There are nine grandchildren. Goodman has been interested in civic affairs from his earliest days in Mesa when it was little more than a sprawling country town. As the years went by he became more and more interested in how the town was growing until he thought he ought to have a hand in its management. HE RAN FIRST in 1936 and was elected for a four-year term.

He spent two years as councilman and the next two years as mayor. He ran again in 1940 and again was mayor in 1943 and 1944. He fought his hardest fight, he says, when he ran alone in 1944. And again he spent the final two years of his term as mayor. "Didn't run any more after that.

Got too tired. Swore I'd never run again. Why in all those 12 years, I didn't miss but four or five council meetings and those I missed because I was sick. i survived by his wife, Mercy; two sons, Angie and Victor; and a daughter, Mrs. Elnore Medina, all of Gilbert.
