The days we have spent within these walls of knowledge have been very happy ones. We appreciate what the associations carried on during our four years stay have meant to us. We have endeavored to uphold the standards and morals which our school so nobly stands for and we have endeavored to do those things which make for a letter school. Our teachers have been un- tiring in their efforts to- ward us and to them we give praise and thanks. We have participated very ably in all school activities, drama, opera, oratory, composition, bas- ketball. track, etc. Our social activities have been very successful and have taught us an appreciation of the finer culture. The great thing we have learned from our school is. that work is the plea- sure that is felt in the earned praise. “A noble task, nobly done.” And now having completed our work here we must pass on with the belief that greater glories are to come. Fellow classmates, we bid you farewell and to all who follow we wish for you success and the joy and happiness that has been ours.

We have accomplished all that has been traditional, and we have done more. We have been ever ready to glean from the past and pres- ent. and hope to leave a heritage for the future. In general school ac- tivities. we have partici- pated with enthusiasm and zeal, and have as- sistet! in sponsoring these. Our leadership in athle- tics. public speaking, de- bating. and opera have brought signal victories and honor to our school. Nor have all of our energies been spent in academic activity. We have done our utmost to enjoy ourselves. Through our clever and original ideas, the Junior Prom was staged, which al- though not surpassing its predecessors in extrava- gant decorations, was unique and sane in an appeal to promote sound conservatism. We now pause in ap- preciation and farewell to the Seniors whose asso- ciation we have enjoyed these past three years. May success at tent! their future endeavors. As a class we hold to the axiom “the first, aim of our education is to de- velop character, the sec- ond. education.” To this end we have pursued our duties. Glen R.

Cooperation at once be- came our motto and we elected LaRue Mickelson and Henry Lund to guide us through the year. One of our greatest achievements was to cap- ture the interclass basket- ball series in a closelv contested game with the Seniors. This is the only Sophomore class in the history of the school which has been able to attain this high honor. The Sophomore girl.; organized the Swastika club and the boys the “Royal Rooters.” both of which displayed much pep and vim. The Sophomore Swing was an outstanding social event and a success fi- nancially. Amid life's quests there is one worthy aim: to be of use to others. and to this end our ef- forts are bent.

We admit we were green' but ever willing and ready to apply our in- telligence to our books and to learn from them the knowledge we are seeking. Registration day was indeed an ordeal. The confidence and self as- surance of any eighth grade graduate would melt before the cold, critical ga e of about two hundred students. The next few days saw our timidity waning, as we learned to open our lock- ers and to find the rooms in which our classes wen held. Our confidence in- creased and things began moving smoothly along, and today we stand among the strongest in the history of our school. We believe, that we should continually “dig” to get the most from our studies. We also be- lieve in getting a genuine pleasure out of life, this was evidenced at the Freshman hop. Now fellow classmates let us continue these pro- fitable school days. Let us now resolve that our associations in the dear old Manti High shall continue for three more years: that through Uli- gence and persistent effort our class will stand with brilliance in the annals of the High School.

Some of the most experienced players in the school were unable to participate this year, and we did not have a single player back from the preceeding season, but. nevertheless. Coach Peterson developed a clever team. Most of the players will be back next year, and along with the stars from the second team, should play fast basketball. The second team, composed entirely of Sophomores, took second place in their league; and captured first place in the class series of the year. We look to 1930 with confidence. Field and Track Our prospects in the field this year are very good. We have an array of athletes who have had previous experience, and many of the under-class men are showing good form and ability. Some of the prospective place win- ners have just come through a season of basketball, which has put them in excellent condition, and they are eagerly waiting favorable weather. Cox, our high jumper and all around star, is with us again this year, and is confident of surpassing all of his previous records. Others whom we are relying on to perform creditably are: Clinger, Crawford. Johnson, Bradley, Ottosen. and a brilliant array of Sophomores. Tennis Our school has a large number of tennis enthusiasts of both sex. We have never participated in competition with other schools, but a great deal of interest has always been shown in inter-class contests, and we have developed some fine players. The winners of the girls’ doubles tournament were Edith Johnson and Clara Evershed. Due to bad weather conditions the boys tournament was postponed until spring.

Our record in this department is an enviable one for we have been division champions seven out of the past ten rears. Although this book goes to press before the debating contests of this year, we have a good team and expect honors to be added to our long list of victories. With Ralph Britsch. and Kirt Johnson affirmative team. Ardes Christiansen and Hyrum Thygerson negative team, we feel that we are to know more about advertising before the conclusion of this school year. The subject “Resolved that Modern Advertising Should Be Condemned” is one that calls for reflective thought, study and good organization. We have confidence in our team for we know they har e ability and with the direction of Mr. Jucd expect them to bring home the laurels. Page Forty 1 LUCY HAWS KENNETH PETERSON Oratorical Contest The ninth annual oratorical contest held in the audi- torium February 22. was fully up to the standard of former years. Nine contestants entered the preliminary tryouts from which Beth Shand. Nedra Leslie. Lucy Haws, Kenneth Peterson and Edith Johnson were selected to enter the finals. Lucy Haws, whose subject was, ‘‘The Making of America.” won first honors and Kenneth Peterson, on The Development of the Constitution.” was second. Miss Phil- lips, Miss Nelson and II. E. Jensen of the Snow College judged the final contest. The Alumni Association, by which the contest this year was fostered, gave twenty and five dollar gold pieces respec- tively to the winners. Alumni we appreciate your interest. I Pa$e Forty-one “Congratulations, Music Department of the High School, your presentation of the light opera, “Pickles” with orchestra accompaniment last evening was a creditable effort. The opera gave the students a fine opportunity for development, its presentation was a delight to your patrons and the success attained added prestige fo an already brilliant reputation held by the department of music in the High School. All in all it seemed to us to be the most pleasing opera you have thus ar presented. Unfortunately the prevalent sickness scare prevented many from attending much to their disappointment and to yours. In addition to the well balanced chorus and the excellent handling of the leading roles in song and story and the general pleasing effect of the presentation is the fact that you were not called upon to draw any outside talent. It was strictly a high school production, of the event. The well balanced school orchestra contributed much to the pleasure ” Manti Messenger. The Cast Hans . Don Alder Jig� Douglas Clark Louisa .

The music played by them has well verified this statement, and has certainly given an example of their talent. This organization held their first practice last fall when a large group of students, having a spirit of doing their most toward the higher attainments of the orchestra, joined together and have not slacked in any way in doing their best. With such an energetic group of worth-while musicians under the capable baton of Wm. H. Peterson, this organization has become one of the best liked and most advanced functions within the school. This orchestra has been at all times ready and willing to gratify the requests of any organization desiring its services. It has played at dramatic performances, at assemblies and in concerts, and it has always performed commendably.

Evan .VIickelson Page Forty-four Dramatics Under Twenty” was the play in which the Manti High School displayed its dramatic ability this year. The enthusiasm with which the play was received fully testified to the success and ability of the production. The play offered love, romance, plenty of humor, drama, spicy pep, and contained some very amusing situations. The cast of the play was chosen by competition and thus represented the best talent in the school. The plot of the play centered around a mischievious girl seventeen years old. but more to her liking just “Under Twenty.” She is full of modern ideas, gained from the movies, and tries to put them into effect among the different members of her family. Needless to say she met with many difficulties. The charm of the play lasted through the whole performance. It was played to an appreciative audience at the Manti Theatre, February ninth. Much credit was due Miss Ostlund. who coached the successful contestants. The Oral Expression classes of Senior and Junior years have been working upon different selections and learning their correct interpretation. We feel that this year in dramatics has been a suc- cess and has contributed much to the entertainment and activities of the school. The department also assisted in putting over” the successful High School Opera Pickles.” Page Forty-fiie Fifty-nine boys started Vocational Agriculture last fall. One hundred dol- lars was appropriated to the school for this department. This has been a means of producing added interest and efficiency to the department. Everybody in that class this year is cairying a project along with the course of study. This group of Smith Hughes boys will be known as “Future Farmers” for that was the national name chosen last year by Smith I lughes workers. W ith the keen competition in agriculture, production demands thorough and intimate knowledge of scientific and productive farming. Accordingly, the boys are not only required to obtain the book learning, but also first-hand practi- cal experience by doing project work and farming in reality. W'e were represented at the County Fair by Glade Allred, Glen Carlson. Wayne Peterson, Lyne Keller, Myron Mellor, and Milton Madsen. These boys took second place there. At the State Fair Livetsock Judging Contest, October 9, 1928, these boys won tenth place with thirty-one schools competing. Three cheers for the future farmers. The graineries of Sanpete will overflow. | Page Forty-iix The Home Economics Department Seventy Freshmen and Sophomore girls are enrolled this year in the sewing and foods classes of the I lome Economics Department. Our objective has been the gaining of knowledge in the art and joys of home-making. The girls in the food classes have planned, prepared and served several banquets in addition to the regularly planned dinners. The Freshmen girls have studied food values and the fundamentals of practical cooking, while the Sophomores have busied them- selves with nutrition, balancing, and the cooking and serving of meals. The sewing department with its hand work, pajamas, smocks, woolen, spring and made-over dresses, was one of the popular departments of the school. An appreciation of the finer arts and the practicability of home sewing has been gained. Among the interesting activities of the department was the fashion show in May, at which the girls wore the dresses they had made and at which the articles made by the Applied Arts class were displayed. Lunch was served to all guests by domestic science girls. We look with pride and satisfaction on our accomplishments and look with anticipation to even greater success another year. I Page Forty-seven Commercial Department A knowledge of the typewriter is essential in the business world ol today. Many persons who would not otherwise be able to secure positions are suc- cessful because they know how to operate a typewriter. Girls, especially, may depend on their knowledge of the typewriter to carry them a long way in securing desirable positions. College students, also, find it very practical because, in the first place, it is more speedy than long-hand: and, in the second place, professors generally prefer a typewritten paper as it is more legible and easier to read. Typewriter keys are keys to the Door of Opportunity”. Through them one may rise to executive positions in almost any line of business. Each year the typewriter is playing a large part in the economic, industrial, and social life of our country, and not only oub country but throughout the world. The typewriting department has been making remarkable progress in the last few years. The department began with few machines and a very small group of students. Very little interest was shown by many of the students. This year we have in the department three private machines besides those belonging to the school, a total of twenty-two. Eighty-eight students are taking the course. Many students who registered for typewriting were turned away because of the limited number of machines. Our instructor. Mr. Bailey, has been working hard with the students in an attempt to increase their speed and accuracy. I Ie has succeeded very well in planning the course to produce these results. The students have all made unusual progress this school year. Numerous students have won pins and other awards as a result of their efforts. In the official speed tests the number of errors is limited to five. The ideals which the students have kept before them have included, first, accuracy, next, constant and progressive development, and finally speed. Those who have a desire to learn the business of the typewriter will find every opportunity for success in this department. Page Forty-eight The Cesti Ti' Club was organized this year by the peppiest class in school, the Senior girls. It has been our aim to introduce enthusiasm and true sportsman- ship into all our high school activities. I his year the club has joyfully responded to every call made by the school. We have not only attended all the basketball games, but our ushers have gladlv given their assistance when ever it was needed. W e have been energetic supporters ol oratory, debating and dramatics. Perhaps our most noteworthy accomplish- ment was the Hallowe’en Ball. It shall ever linger in our memories as one of the most enjoyable evenings spent in the presence of class mates and faculty. We are satisfied with the achievements of our club and feel repaid for all the efforts spent in its development. And now as we say farewell to our dear old Manti lligh, we wish its continued success.

CRAWFORD Claws GRANT COX IIYRUM THYGERSON LYLE LARSON H i h Life Club At various times in the history of the school, boys and girls have organized in groups to foster greater interest and activity in school functions. As a result the members individually feel that they are a more vital part of the institution than they otherwise would be. In 1927 the High Life Club was from the Junior boys, and this year their by-laws were changed to include both Junior and Senior boys. In order to belong, a boy must not only foster school spirit, but must be an abstainer from the use of alcohol and tobacco; chivalrous to the ladies and cooperate with all organized working for the betterment of the school.

In addition to these accomplishments they have sponsored parties and dances, and put over a High Life Club Day,” in the high school. We boast a corps of good athletes and expect laurels in track and field sports this spring. The Club has been guided through this busy year by Gerald Ottosen, Big Chief; Chesley Eliason, Little Chief; Winston Crawford. Claws”; Theron Clinger, T. N. T.

The group stands for good sportsmanship, and by their efforts they have set a good example of the true M. H. S. spirit in scholarship and attainment. The Over-All Club organization of the Junior Girls consists of the following members: Martha llenrie, Naomi Madsen. Lucile Reid, Alice Bogh. Louise Larsen. Ruby de McFarlane, Phoebe Patten.

And we have added to our otherwise active program more ol the ideals and standards as introduced by Eleanor II. Richards in her “Creed for Women. Accordingly we believe and support the idea that all women should attain to a skilled occupation in order to be self-supporting; and that all women should have a social, intellectual and commercial position equal to that of other people. We are interested in things for America, in the institutions that make for social progress. We are supporters of our club. We are loyal to the school. We are building for our nation. Forward March! ; fa Page Fifty-three The “Royal Rooters” The “Royal Rooters organized last fall by the Sophomore boys has done much to increase interest among the lower class men in the school doings. Under the leadership of Don Alder, skipper, Wayne Peterson, first mate. Jack Brown, Second mate and Royden Braithwaite, cameraman, we have directed aims, modeled opinions, and brought added pleasures to our members. We believe in social, activity, and individual as well as social program; and have therefore, sponsored student assemblies, matinee dances and par- ties. Our time has been well spent. We have worked and we have played. Our outlook on life has been broadened and we look with joy to the fuller life of the future years in our dear old High School. Swastika The need for a club which would foster greater activity among the girls of the school has been apparent for several years. Accordingly, an organization for this purpose was effected last fall with Carol Keller. Bessie Wooley and Elna Childs as officers. “Swastika” an Indian name, meaning good luck was chosen as our club name. Since its creation we have had many good times together and have participated fre- quently in functions and activities of the school. We feel that we have done much to make school life more vital pleasureable. Swastika, lets continue to carry on. Pagt Fifty-five ) I Pioneer Class The year 1903 marked a new epoch in educational history of Manti City, when on June 6th of that year, the citizens of Manti, by a decisive vote authorized the issuance of bonds for the erection of a new high school building, only four votes being registered against it. On September 18. 1903. some sixty students gathered in the Tabernacle annex for the first day of high school ever to be held in Manti. Benches were moved into the annex. There were no desks, so a delivery buggy meandered about town and gathered up every spare table to serve as a substitute. The new high school for Manti (now Junior High) was dedicated on April 21. 1906, after which class instruction held forth in the new building. The Manti High School was the second of its kind to be established south of Provo. It began as a two-year school but soon taught all four years. Pond recollections and gracious greetings still remain of the “old school days.” Each pioneer is glad to renew allegiance to the beloved M. II. S. on the twentieth anniversary. Each admires the spirit of progress it has main- tained. and takes pride and pleasure in the thought of being affiliated as a link in the chain of its history. F. M.

Not in the movies but of the first day of school of ’28 and ’29. I wo types of Freshmen were present. Those who were attending this noble institution for the first time and those others (not rare) known as perpetual Freshmen. Blanks were filled and refilled. Small and large groups of students held important conferences about ways and means of avoiding certain subjects which seemed to be popular as a small pox epidemic. The masters of learning displayed their practical knowledge of education, however, and most of the Seniors decided to take Physics. Doug Clark’s suspenders created a mild sensation. Three days passed with the usual locker difficulty, the text book problem, and the mob at the book store, but eventually all was smoothed out. The Freshmen learned that cooking was always held in the Domestic Science Depart- ment and that Physical Education was usually taught in the gym. The merry-go-round, the Ferris wheel, and the Kewpie dolls, arrived for the lair. (.lasses wefe held between dances, ice cream cones, and dog races. Mr. Judd reported that he was practically exhausted playing Keeno. Mr. Frishneckt threatened school all afternoon unless more interest was shown in the nine o’clock class. Someone kindly informed the Student Body President that school was in session and as soon as he had this report officially verified he became one of the also present” at the M. H. S. Important meetings held behind closed doors. Result: a whole new flock of class officers for the ensuing year. Fhe Meat Market was pinched for having too much dog meat in their weinies. The faculty, the moon, the Freshmen, the alumni, and others all strolled in Fords, Hudsons, etc. (Some really strolled in every sense of the word.) up to the old power plant where pickles, soda crackers, dates, marshmallows, apples and jelly beans were consumed. Mr. Johnson’s Smithsonial Institute Hat perished in the flames in spite of the effort of the valient 1 ligh Fife Club to save it. What we all want to know is what became of the crowd that came in Brown’s red Hudson, about eight-thirty p. m. The following students please meet—no it isn’t anything but the Clarion Staff. They have nothing to do with the initiation of Freshmen or the enforce- ment of laws committee. “Are you going to the dance tonight?” Everyone was there including the Alumni members attending Snow and condescending Seniors. OCTOBER His share of nuts and acorns now The squirrel hastes to gain And set his house in order for The winter’s dreary reign. Is it love? Yes. but it’s in tennis. Tennis racquets borrowed right and left. Future Helen Wills shattered windows at an unbelievable rate. Freshmen were slightly bewildered over it all. The Student Body received a rather unsuspected thrill when the benevolent Faculty was so kind as to give us a matinee dance. Please lend me a dime, was heard several times in the halls. Faculty packed their tooth brushes and blankets and encamped for the wilds of Zion to the temples of learning for an institute. We hope they got what they went after. Mr. Judd brought home a new automobile robe for his Leaping Lena. Some of the male students bought licenses. Others didn’t feel the need of am- as they have their dears. Winston seemed to have enrolled at the University of Hard Knocks and he wore the colors (black and blue) on both eyes. As if this wasn’t enough he con- tracted a case of heart trouble (her colors were and are white and pink). The High Life Club held their first pow-wow and elected Jake Ottoson, Big Chief; Zode Eliason, Little Chief; Claws Quint Crawford; and T. N. T. Ther Clinger as a result of his bravery in killing flies. The greatest mistake of the Clarion Editor was revealed the other day, when it was found she hadn t put Martha on the Clarion Staff. Cden simply will not let a little thing like the year book interfere wtih his te-te-tete’s. The Hobgoblins, the fairies, the pajamas, the Spanish Cabelleros (including Don and Wilbur) and the colonial ladies all mingled freely in the gym, among tennis shoes and other decorations provided by the Cesta I ie’s, the decorations were really quite charming. NON EMBER The clouds in bars of rusty red Along the hilltops glow, And in the still sharp air the frost Is like a dream of snow. All the A's, E’s. D's and G's handed out on small strips of white cardboard. They were greatly appreciated by those six students that received above B. All students resolve to study at least one week out the next quarter, and then patiently await the next E. Those incomplete units (new methods of catching unsuspecting students) look very condemning when handed out by a stern Faculty Advisor. Pdge Fifty-nine Clarion Staff and Junior Girls suffered rising temperature over inconsistency ot the Faculty. I ligh Life Club got the dance. We wished ’em luck. They needed it. I he janitor reported that not less than a ton of paper was removed from the typewriting room every day. This shows, no doubt the great activity on the part of the students, even if they did only average two correct sheets to the ream of paper. I he High Lite Club Special and Petivity were joined in Wedlcok at high noon in the Bishops outer office. Ralph Britsch was best man and Bessie Taylor was maid of honor. The decorations were white and black and Ethel Alder and Beth Shand made charming bridesmaids. Each carried a dozen pencils and a roll of paper. Roy Hansen as mechanic brought up the rear. The Freshmen surprised the school (Freshies always do), and gave an assembly. “Kimona” was the outstanding feature of the program. Later in the dy, Little Green Streamers waved merrily in the fragrant breeze of the gym to the tune of “I Can’t Give You Anything But Love.” Freshmen and Seniors (including Mildred Peterson) waltzed and did variations of antiseptic dancing. DECEMBER ( I “From the leafless bill and valley But one refrain bear: A Happy New Year.” A Happy New Year.” First lyceum number “Shavers Jubilee Singers,” gave an afternoon of unusual entertainment. Cuma came expecting to see a blond fashion revue. It turned out to be a quartette of patent-leather blonds. I he Vicks Vaporub factories resorted to night shifts as the attendance of the M. II. S. rapidly declined. Nickels and dimes usually spent at the bookstore were transferred to the Pharmacy for anything or everything that had an effect on the flue. Mr. Johnson finally decided that two wasn’t a large enough cast for “Pickles” and that six out of the thirty-six wasn’t enough to hold school successfully so school adjourned and the “Pickles” was postponed. Days passed and with them went the flue, after Sunday came Monday and on Monday we had school. Song Department joined the Sewing Class and warbled to the tune of the sewing machine as they sewed for “Pickles.” 1 he shirts as well as “Pickles” were exceedingly successful. The Seniors bought a paper of pins, a Christmas tree and a roll of paper and spent a few days at the Armada in an effort to make it l6ok like Christmas. Financially speaking, it was not what was expected, but otherwise—oh, you have no idea. School adjourned for the visit of Kris Kringles. much to the joy of all. One of the Freshmen asked if Merry (Mary) Christmas was Santa Claus’s sister. f igt Sixty , i JANUARY A song for the old. While its knell is tolled And its parting moments fly But a song and a cheer Bor the glad New ) ear While we watch the Old Year die.” Christmas presents exihibited by those few that still had theirs. Nora Rust had a pretty baby doll. Jack Brown a box of typing erasers, Dortha Jensen some new red garters, Ralph Britsch received a “little love”, Don Alder a trip to Gunnison and Mr. Judd bought a new tire for his Leapin' Leana. Book store sales mounted until dollars instead of cents were proper terms used. Reason finally discovered as reams and reams of yellow paper were distributed to each teacher according to their rank in the Faculty Beauty Contest. For days and months and even years that rather degenerate bunch known as the High Life Club has owed the Cesti Ti's a party. Finally they decided that the cash on hand was in such a state that they could buy all-day suckers and give a party, providing too much wasn't expected. However, the Cesti Ti's received more than they expected and the party was a real success. North Sanpete played tag with our hoopsters in the gym for awhile and incidently made a few baskets which brought them victory. These few as it were was a few more than Manti pitched. Miss Ostlund proved her ability in the very entertaining assembly she gave. Ephraim also payed a visit the next week end. It seemed that all victories were going for the North. I his defeat was followed by a great victory for the Sophomore Class in their annual Sophomore Swing. The decorations were de- licious and the Punch was beautiful, Mr. Judd informed the students. 1 I i FEBRUARY ' Pale is the February sky. And brief the mid-day’s sunny hours; The wind swept forest seems to sigh, Bor the sweet time of leaves and flowers.” The B. Y. U. orchestra conducted by Leroy J. Robertson, gave a long but rather pleasant concert in the auditorium. Many students learn that Inc. does not mean incorporated as the report cards for the quarter made their appearance. The Faculty were quite considerate considering—. | , A splendid program was given by the Snow College. No refreshments were served. The Classic Four play “Listen to the Mocking Bird,” especially for those on the front row. How about it Theron. Ralph, Flyrum, and others? This was a very enjoyable program anti was one of the feature attractions of the year. The High Life Club felt spring was in the air (it wasn’t) accordingly they draped themselves about a Henry and started for the country road otherwise I i I known as Parkers Paradise. For two miles they traveled along enjoying the crisp air. the breakfast food advertisements and the aroma of sage brush. Quite sud- denly, however, the Business Manager acquired a bump of knowledge in a most unxpected manner, (lighting on the cement on your head produces the same effect.) The rest of the party were fished out of the mud some time later by a passing motorist. The annual competitive play Under Twenty was enjoyed by many, but not as much as the cast enjoyed the Valentine party given by their coach Miss Ostlund some time later. The puzzle was why Beth and Winston faded out before the curtain fell. All Daniel Websters came forward as the 22nd of February drew near. Ken Peterson was bravest man on the campus when it came to expounding patriotic sentiments. Miss Lucy Haws won first place in the contest. Ken came second. Assignments and books faded into oblivion as the first strains of the Military Ball were heard. Teachers offered a reward for anyone that could explain the sudden affectionate attitude of the Sophomores. They say that Mr. Reid has been teaching the doctrine of “Love Your Neighbor as Your Self. They were merely trying to live up to his instructions. Some other members of this school take Mr. Reids classes also. The sudden epidemic of spring fever prompted Mr. Nielson to remark that hereafter recommends from the Bishop would be required by all school children on the Temple Hill during school hours. This also applies to the High Life Club. MARCH Tis time to light the evening fire To read good books, and sing The low and lovely song that breathes Of the eternal spring. Hyrum Thygerson, Ardes Christianson, Kirt Johnson, and Ralph Britsch proved to be the best debaters of those that entered the contest. Mr. Judd has great hopes of this combination and we expect them to do very well. The High Life Club were considerably riled when the Juniors and Mr. Frisch- knecht said No! No! No! to their plans for a High Life Club day and a dance. W. G. was visited by a formidable looking delegation in blue sweaters. He was not to be intimidated nor over awed however, and the High Life Club left saying (what they said was censored and we’re sorry but we can’t print it.) The Cesti Ti’s felt the need for a movie so they went to “The Road to Ruin.” Afterward chili and ice cream was served. Jack Brown and the Editor ceased work on the Clarion long enough to attend the Prom and a movie at Provo. | Page Sixty-two What we fail to see is why Glenn and Ken can be such good friends and yet quarrel so over the gate post. Not wishing either of them any bad luck, but we hope that one of them wins out so we can pay or collect our debts. Once again the midnight oil was burned at the Manti High School as the Juniors cut paper, wound wire, and generally wrecked the High School, much to the displeasure of the janitor, who always suffers a chill anytime anyone says Junior Prom decorations. However, after operations had been transferred to the Armada, the school went on Juniorless but happy. Supreme of the supreme, marvelous of the marvelous, most beautiful, more enjoyable than the enjoyable, was the Junior Prom of ’29. Th midnight oils still burned but it was not the Juniors this time. It was the Clarion Staff (three of them) who were trying their best to bring Cosmos out of Chaos and make the Clarion a reality instead of a night mare. March 23rd the last of the Clarion went to press. APRIL “Could spring be spring without a flower To smile at April's weeping? Would robins trill so gay a song, Or May day be worth keeping!'” April first was a very uneventful day, much to the surprise of the wary faculty. Pickless was again added to the curriculum—mumps being the only drawback. The Physics students held an impromptu celebration in the lab much to the annoyance of the instructor and principal. A track meet was scheduled for Friday afternoon but on account of a “baby hurricane” it was postponed. Snow College paid the Manti High Sch x)l another visit. For once an oration seemed to make a big hit with the students. The Clarion Staff decided to celebrate on the remaining 30 cents of the treasury. Donations called for. Seniors did some rapid sprinting and carried off the honors in the track meet. Sophomores came second. Did the Juniors enter? Girls wore pajamas, jackets and other things in preparation for the fashion show. Paint was smeared on girls tables and book ends. Kirt and Ralph advertised for dates for girls day. The one drawback seemed to be references required.” Page Sixty-three SNAPS Page Sixty-four Page Sixty-f vc SNAPS Vage Sixty-ux SNAPS Page Sixty-seven iqS:j-. lx:s jXpj Page Sixty-nine I due Seventy t ( ( 1 EDUCATION??? By A. . Judd. The great battle in and for education has been waged throughout the school year sometimes furiously, often serenely and sometimes it has been just a skirmish with neither side getting hit with an idea, or stunned by a thought. l ake for example the notorious II. L. C. led by the gallant Jake Ottosen and Theron Ginger, champions of womens rights and child welfare, aided and abetted in their nefarious designs by one Kirt Johnson, erstwhile opera star, Glen R. Kenner, saxophone blower and lover. Quint Crawford, apollo and sheik, Chess Eliason, untamed terror of the ball room, Adams apple Britsch, humorist, essayist, economist, Grant Cox, our little rose bud, and all others, both mentioned and unmentioned and consider whether the cause of education suffers at their hands. Then there was the Junior Promenade to which even the Mas and Pas turned out to aid in making it a howling success. It was one. Beautiful costumes, lovely girls, etc! etc! Punch should have been served to help take the pain from the pedal extremities. There was the march of the Juniors consisting mainly of Seniors and outsiders. President Wilbur Cox and Grand Master, K. Peterson, were there in all their glory and had “Old Kaiser Bill” backed off the map for dignity and decorum. Miss Ostlund had a “Prom look and attitude. It is said she sluffed two mem- bers of the faculty. Prehaps that is not right however—two ways. Miss Miller went to Provo. She has a sister living there, she also has a male friend who is Nobody’s sister. Messrs. Johnson, Andrews, Alder, Frischkneckt and Judd put on a lot of dog at the Prom and were present. What Ho, Antony! We looked and looked and failed to find m. II. Peterson. “To bad! Morti- mer”—“Age creeps on a pace”. I i After seeing Clara it was not hard to believe the rumor that she spent a week getting ready for the dance, incidentally missing all classes. Goodbye! Juniors. All hail to those who have not been mentioned—“Back to earth James”. Education can be obtained in pairs said Pola Negri and Rudolph Valentino, so say also, Douglas and Ethel, Dixie and Glen C, Cuma and Winston and others too numerous to mention. The board of Education has about concluded to build special “lovers lanes” on the campus, so there won't be so much competition for standing room in the halls. Don Brown has written from Provo to Miss Bessie Taylor, of our acquaintance, to the effect, that in his estimation Love is essential to the effectual study of any course. Jack and Emalyne have tried and tried in vain to thwart the hand of Venus, and like the queen of Sheba, Emalyne wilj soon wear a precious jewel on her thumb and Jack will represent the gloom and wear daisies and carrv dishwater. Page Seventy-one Appreciation A thorough and consciencious effort has been put forth to make this Clarion the best annual ever published by the Manti High School. The Staff has constantly worked to this end in the selection and arrangement of material. We feel deeply indebted to the student body, the classes, departments, and patrons among the business firms, the Alumni Association and our parents lor their interest and contribution of various kinds that have made this edition possible. To all who have so generously contributed we extend our gratitude and appreciation. —The Staff. Are You Going, to College? If so, please keep in mind that: SNOW COLLEGE $ 1. Trains for leadership. 2.
