Spanish Fork, Utah -1- CONTENTS OF THE CLARION SCHOOL STUDENTS M.H.S. held available vast opportunities ACTIVITIES -2- to all who entered with the dreams and high hopes of achieving social and scholastic heights. -3- The enthusiasm and achievements of a group are more often than not traced back to the personality of its leader. The educational program and the high morale of Manti High's students and teachers could be traced directly or indirectly to the influence of Manti's progressive superintendent, Maurice C. Barnett. I he board members ot the Soutn banpete bchool District was made up of men whose record ot accomp- lishments proved their belief in the importance of good schools and teachers. Evart J. Jensen, Sec. Margaret Anderson, Eugene Overfelt, Don Simmons, Mariel O. Hansen, Dr. Wendell McGarry, and Superintendent Barnett gave many hours of service to help make the South Sanpete Schools better. —4— Dreams may be fantasies, but they may come true. As we turn these pages of our golden book of youth we will revive many dreams and memories of special events, special people, special places, and cherished mementoes we hope never to lose. Basket- ball madness, the joy and tension that accompanies the opening night of the play, the responsibility and appreciation of being elected an officer, the fun and excitement of a class party, the proud feeling of suc- cess when receiving a Block M , and Graduation Day — these are many of the delights we have attempted to preserve. -5- M.H.S. Student body President, Lynn Dean, was one of the most outstanding students ever to fill that important position. He willingly took on many respon- sibilities and always did an excellent job. Lynn not only gave the students wise counsel, but set a good example for them to follow. Student body Vice-President, Maxine Kjar fulfilled the duties of her office in her usual exceptional manner. She was always helpful, courteous and co-operative making she and Lynn an unbeat able team. Pretty and pert Gloria Mortensen, Student body Secretary, had a big responsibility in her office During the school year she compiled a record of the activities and happenings in M.H.S. through the Student Council.

Templarette leaders are: Pres., Maxine Kjar; Vice-Pres., Carol Ogden; Sec.-Treas., Roch- elle Hansen; Party Chairman, Bev Olson; Drill Masters, Peggy Sears and Elaine Wanlass.

Sears Brown was chosen as Preferred Man by the girls of Manti High, with Keith Nielson and David Larson as his attendants. The decorations were beautiful — the dance was exquisite — and the theme was Enchanted Sea ; all adding up to a wonderful evening for everyone at- tending the Pep Club Formal. Gosh — isn't this fun! Just one comment — Why don't ya' make the crown bigger next year? —49— Friday morning, on Oct. 9, found Ol' AA. H. S. and all its followers off on our an- nual Horseback ride to AAillcreek. When we arrived the faculty donned their chef caps and soon we were munching tasty ham- burgers, attempting to satisfy our huge appetites that had been worked up while joggling along on those bouncy horses. Following the Horseback ride, the Harvest Ball was held in the High School Gym. —50— Before reaching Milkcreek we managed to hobble off our horses at Mudflats and try to get limbered up by playing vollyball, baseball, and football. Then we proceeded up to Milkcreek where those lucious GOODIES were waiting for us, which were prepared by those ol' stand-by's — The Faculty. —51— THE CURSE OF AN ACHING HEART Lucius Goodenough . . .

S. was shown on Dec. 15, 1959, when the High School Chorus, under the direction of Arnold Otterson, put on a very outstanding Christmas program. Everyone who attend- ed had an enjoyable evening. Along with everything else in prepara- tion for the Christmas Holidays, where would the spirit be without a Christmas Tree? Ha Ha, look at me girls — no eyes — don't need 'em to decorate THIS tree! Everyone come and get your candy and nuts! Not only was Santa present this wonderful day of Dec. 23, but also the Seniors and Alumni presented assemblies.

We al- ways have loads of fun and plenty of good food, good program and other activities. On Dec. 1959, the FHA held a caroling party. Along with making music we made merry too. —54— Under the capable leadership of Mrs. Alder in Arts and Crafts, anyone of these girls could win a blue ribbon at the Fair. Peach fuzz to whiskers makes a boy a man. This year we held a beard growing contest and was surprised at how many men we really do have in this ol' high school of ours. Who needs two to Tango? Our own Baby Huey did us proud when he was chosen as one of the ten all star basket- ball players at the Round Robin this year. Congratulations Huey. Carol Ann Braithwaite has represented our school as an efficient and informative reporter to the Messenger and the Enterprise. —55— OFFICERS Pete Mortensen Grant Larson Don Reed Wayne Mangelson Carl Jensen Dan Anderson Keith Jorgenson Instructor, Earl Wheeler The South Sanpete F. F. A. has been very successful in their program the past year. The year started off on the right foot with the election of capable officers headed by Pete Mortenson, president. The chapter continued on its way to success with the annual intiation of the new members. This was followed by a Harvest Ball, record hop, and turkey raffle, a swimming party, and the annual Sweetheart Ball. The chapter was then represented at the regional contests where we won the public speaking parliamentary procedure contests, foun- dation award and a scholarship. The chapter then attended the State F.F.A. convention in Salt Lake City where they competed on the state level. We were very happy with the results obtained on the State level. Lovely Carol Ann Braithwaite reigned over the Sweetheart Ball with Janice Thompson and Gloria Morensen as her attendants. —57- All Sweetheart candidates and their partners dance to the theme. Decorated in red and white, and with the theme Teen Angel , the Sweetheart Ball was a big suc- cess and a lot of fun. The excitement of the Sweetheart Ball is shown in the eyes of the F.F.A. Sweetheart, Carol Ann, and her atten- dants, Janice and Gloria. F.F.A. President Pete Mortensen, presented the honors to the girl at the Sweetheart Ball. On October 30, 1960 the Sophomores held their Sophomore Swing and as usual there were ghosts, goblins, chills and squeels. Here comes a handsome couple now On Sept. 28, 29, and 30 the an- nual initiations of the Sophomore Class took place. They were good sports and seemed to have as much fun as anyone else.

SENIOR BALL ROYALTY Commencing the Christmas week before letting out for the holidays was the Senior Ball. The decorations were of an exquisite blue and silver tying in the theme, 'Silver Bells with the sil- ver tree in the center, giv- ing everything that Christ- mas spirit. Our Class rings will hold treasured memories of the past years in High School and identify us as the Seniors of 1960. All I want for Christmas is my corn cobb pipe. Okay — So you're a villain —I Here comes the breathless moment! All attention was focused on the hillside watching and waiting for the letter to begin to glow. The letters in the background were just the beginning of an exciting night. Every person in every class wait- ed with anxiety to see who's letter would win, — and as fate would have it the Seniors walked away with all the honors again this year. The spirit like a fire is burning. —61— ■jfmior y m PROM MASTER John Wintch PROM MISTRESS Gloria Mortensen PROM MASTER, MISTRESS and ATTENDANTS John Frischknecht, Tami Venitelli, John Wintch, Gloria Mortensen, Noall Clark Betty Nelson —62— Members of the Jun- ior class worked de- votely to make their prom a never-to-be- forgotten memory in the minds of all who attended. There they made dreams become realities and experi- enced the thrill of ac- complishment suc- cess. The main event of the evening was the Pro- monade danced beau- tifully by members of the Junior Class. Gee — this is fun. And we even get to miss class. Junior classmates spent many hours making their dance the most exotic one of the year. Some are bound to win and some are bound to lose, but whatever we do — we don't want those basketball blues. Now when I was a young man and attended ol' MHS — Our dances after the games this year have really been some goers. Looks like fun for everyone. m Assemblies, dances and activities all go in toge- ther to help make up the great spirit we, here at AAHS, have had this year. Spring Activities turn atention to track.

STERLING Sends Congratulatons to the MANTI HIGH SCHOOL THIS 200-FOOT SUSPENSION BRIDGE OVER COTTONWOOD CREEK JUST BELOW THE EPHRAIM CITY ELECTRIC POWER PLANT 1, WAS BUILT IN 1952 BY J. H. JENSEN, THEN SUPERINTENDENT OF WATER AND POWER. THE BRIDGE IS ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT AND VALUABLE IMPROVE- MENTS MADE IN THE EPHRAIM CITY CUL- INARY WATER SYSTEM. IT SUPPORTS A TEN-INCH STEEL PIPE LINE FIFTEEN FEET ABOVE THE CREEK, AND CARRIES THE CULINARY WATER TO THE CITY. PREVIOUSLY THIS PIPE LINE CROSSED UNDER THE BED OF THE CREEK AND WAS IN GRAVE DANGER OF BEING WASHED OUT BY FLOODS AND SPRING HIGH WATER, WHICH WOULD ALLOW THE WATER SYSTEM TO BE CON- TAMINATED WITH DISEASE FROM FILTHY FLOOD MUD AND DEBRIS. THIS BRIDGE SHOULD SAFEGUARD THE SYSTEM FOR AT LEAST SEVENTY-FIVE YEARS. J. H. Jensen (above) inspects one of the projects completed during the fifty-two years he served the CITY OF EPHRAIM In behalf of the citizens of Ephraim, Mayor Calvert Larsen and City Council congratulate Manti High School on successfully adding another year to its tradition of achievements. —69— MANTI CITY BANK 70 Years of SAFETY-SECURITY-SERVICE MEMBER FEDERAL DEPOSIT INSURANCE CORPORATION Your Account is Welcome —70— EPHRAIM LIONS CLUB One of the outstanding projects of the year.
