We hope that in the future when you look back into this annual the memories and happiness of your high school years will be brought back to you. The stalwart, majestic peaks rising from the desert of Southwestern Colorado stand as a symbol of protection to the inhabitants of Montezuma Valley. From these mountains previous MCHS annual staffs have taken the name Sleeping Ute for their book, and we the staff of 1949 wish to continue this tradition.

TI IIRTY-FIVE '1' i ll RTY-SIX Harry Wright Eva Wilbur Jean Yates .Iunior Activities Dear Diary, The Juniors have done it again which proves that this class always gets what it goes after. The sponsoring of three successful dances after games during the football season further proved the persistance and ability of this class. The Valentine Dance was sponsored by the Junior class. The main attraction of the evening was the crowning of the Valentine Queen, Frances Bliss. What would Halloween be without spooks? Realizing this the Juniors contribut- ed the spook house to the Halloween carnival. Other booths sponsored by the Juniors were the horseracing and strong man concessions. Through hard work the Junior candidate for King, Frank Jones was put on the throne with the candidate 101' Queen, Myrlene Posey, following closely. Hot Dogs! Pop! Pop Corn! A series of selling hot dogs, pop corn, and pop at the games was one of the money making projects of the entire athletic season. As you know, Diary, the Junior-Senior Prom is the gayest social event ,f the school year. This year for the first time it was held in the new gym being one ol the most successful to be put on and one that will be long remembered by the Seniors. To the class of 1950 the memory of their Junior year will be tucked away in their hearts. Winding up the year the Juniors are looking forward to next year with anticipation. iii!

They started their year off with a big bang by holding a Watermelon Feed early in September. Following this in October the Sophs took high 'honors at the Halloween Carnival by having their Queen elected. They also sponsored the food booth and dart throw. On February 26, 1949 after the last basketball game of the season, the Sopho- mores held a very successful dance at the Cortez gym. To draw to a close their second year in good ole M.C.H.S. the Sophs held the'r spring activity which they feel sure was a great success. Freshman Class Officers 4 ,, The largest class in M.C.H.S. elected officers as follows: President ------- Jackson Bass Vice President James Porter Secretary - Carolyn Keeler Treasurer ---- Janice Darnall Sponsors Miss Roelfs, Mr. Smith, Miss Blatti The Class of '52 holds the honor of being the largest freshman class ever to enroll in M.C.H.S. We sincerely hope that they continue to show the enthusiasm and ambition the next three years that they have shown this year. FORTY-FIVE ,s. Mtg?

TY-TVVO JA X1fxwufxlnlf'll, Clgzzsiwzj J G Halloween Carnival The annual Halloween Carnival is always the big event of the fall term, and both stu- dents and the public await its coming with impatience. On October 27, 1948 the long awaited event got under way in the grade school gymnasium. All the classes did their best to have the most attractive and most visited booths on the floor. The Student Council raffle booth, and the Senior Bingo table attracted many visitors lured there in the hope of winning some of the prizes on display. The Western Union booth, another Senior concession, received much attention. A constant line in front of the Junior Spook House gave evidence to its popularity. Some of the more adventuresome, made repeated trips into the maze of pitch black tunnels filled with corpses, ghosts and other objects oi horror. Much heated betting took place at the Junior horse race, where some came away smiling while others did not. So much excitement made every one hungry which resulted in a continual rush to the Sophomore hamburger stand where food and drinks were consumed with amazing rapidity. The temptation of sticking a dart into one of the pretty balloons made the Sophomore dart booth a huge success. No carnival is complete without noisemakers and confetti, which made the Freshman novelty booth a sell out early in the evening. A basketball throw, also sponsored by the Freshman, was well attended. Everyone was kept busy voting for a carnival king and queen, and wondering who the lucky ones would be. The candidates were as follows: Seniors: Don Brown and Gwendolyn McBride Juniors: Frank Jones and Myrlene Posey Sophomores: Don Murray and Joyce Martin Freshman: Jimmy Porter and Ruth Curtis At 10:30, an aisle was cleared, and the winners Junior King, Frank Jones, and Sopho. more Queen, Joyce Martin were escorted to the purple and gold throne to be crowned King and Queen of the Carnival. Soon after, the booths were closed, and a dance was held with music by the Vita-Kids Orchestra. The carnival was over leaving only memories until next October may bring it back again.

Dear Diary, We, the staff of the 1949-Sleepi-ng Ute sincerely hope that this annual is success- ful in bringing back our students, happiest memories of the past year of hig'h school life. Compiling this book has been educational and fun. We went through the Durango Herald-Democrat printing office, helped take pictures, wrote copy and struggled together in collecting snapshots and other things of interest. Although we have worked hard, we have enjoyed trying to make this annual the best since the turn of the century. You, Dear Diary, will know if we have been successful. sem Aeyd we auo e 1uaA9 Suglds 9 SV oiuemq up penuasald .101 QU21 Uadv uo 1eAJ,sa5 sK11V slug -.

When Pop is called away on a business trip and Mom goes with him for a second honeymoon Wilbur decides to open a Boarding House and raise funds to purchase himself a bicycle. The house is literally crawling with Boarders of many types and kinds by the time night falls. But at two o'clock in the morning Pop and Mom come home because Pop forgot his brief case. Papa has an important business conference the next morning but is indefinitely delayed as he is carted off to jail, as Habeaus Corpus Malone, for robbing the bank. Wilbur captures the bank robbers, Papa comes home, Wilbur gets. his bicycle, and every one is happy. Cast 'K .,..........Darre1l Veach fl 'N XX Wilbur Maxwell ..,.,. Hercules Nelson ..........

All attention was directed to the new baby grand piano for which the proceeds of the concert were used. The first part of the program was devoted to the vocal depart- ment under the direction of Mr. Perlman. Opening the program were selections by the chorus, followed by the girl's sextette, and boys quartette, which presented individuals and mixed group select- ions. An unusual novelty number, Fred Waring's arrangement of The Night Before Christmas, by the sextette and quartette, was one of the highlights of the vocal program. The march, Crescent,'l provided the first number of the band program directed by Miss Blatti. Following the opening selections, the Clarinet Quartette presented a group of folk songs. One of the most entertaining features of the evening was the demonstration of tn: new and unusual instruments of the band: bass clarinet, alto clari- net, oboe, basson, cymbals, and glockenspiel. The addition of these instruments added greatly to the etfectiveness of the instrumental works. The concert was well attended by a large and appreciative audi- ence who were generous in their praise of our efforts. 44141 SIXTY-FIVE K Qi SIXTY-SIX Chorus its director, Mr. Periman. of the guidance shown amazing development under has orus of M.C.H.S. ch he ars, t ye n the past few I EH- added, been have voices ale ID any M members. hundred of one larger chorus 3 of less than fifty, to oup 383' IT!

W. Merkley, the M.C.H.S. grid team had one of its most suc- cessful seasons since 1945. Our team ran up a total of 142 points, to 112 for their opponents. Facing a tough ten game schedule, the Panthers were successful in winning five, losing four, and tieing one. We They September 10-Grand Junction ...... 0 25 The M.C.H.S.

September 24-Farmington . . .... 7 7 The Farmington Scorpions refused to bow to the M.C.H.S. Panthers as they battled to a photofinish tie on the Farmington gridiron. October l-Aztec . . . . . . . 20 13 The Cortez eleven started with full throttle to take the Aztec Tigers in the first half of a thrilling game, but slowed down in the last two periods to win by a small margin. October 6-Moab . 1 3 1 9 The Cortez Panthers ventured to Moab to play the Moab Red Devils and there they encountered one of the best passing offenses' of the entire season, and lost the game by a pass in the last few minutes of play. SEVEN TY-ONE SEVENTY-TVVO We They October 1 5-Durango . 6 1 3 Cortez played host to a strong Durango grid team in its first conference clash of the season.

October 22-Sargent ......... 1 2 6 The M.C.H.S. Panthers ventured into the San Luis Valley for the first time in many years, where they met and defeated the Sargent grid team. October 29-Moab . ...... 12 0 The Panthers satisfied their revenge for their defeat in the first game with Moab, by staging a comeback in their second battle and defeating the Red Devils. November 5-Kirtland .......... 32 l 2 The Cortez Panthers, after being fooled by the Kirtland Broncos for a few moments early in the game, caught the hang of the Central offense and proceeded to smash the game, and out-manned the New Mexico gridders. November l 1-Durango . . . . . 0 1 3 The hard-fighting M.C.H.S. Panthers lost a football thriller to the Durango Demons on Armistice Day, which gave the Demons the basin championship.

Seniors SICV l'IN'I'X'-SEVEN Basketball Although our team has not been as good as it has been in previous years, we do not consider it to be non-deserving of praise. Of course, it is nice to win all, or even most of the games, but there must always be a loser. Our basketball team has shown that it is capable of being just as good a loser as it is a winner, and we think that its sportsmanship and fair play rank with the best, winner or loser.
