Last year's foreword stressed a year of change and this year the change changed t o a complete split. For the first semester, the pattern of last year was retained and Santa Fe High School met in the morning and Santa Fe Mid-High met in the afternoon. Certainly, a change came about by adding from the junior highs the ninth grade t o the MidHigh. For four and a half months, the old Santa Fe High School housed 3,000 students in a day coming from 7:00 in the morning to 6:00 at night. In January, this all changed and grades twelve and eleven moved to the new building across town to the southern area of Santa Fe near De Vargas Junior High School and the College of Santa Fe on a high plateau overlooking the city and the Sangre De Cristo, Jemez, and Sandia Mountains. Most of this school year has centered around this split. The splitting of the two schools led to the separation of most all school functions. The. four classes split, the lunch hours split, the athletic teams split, the faculty split, the clubs and organizations split; these were only some of the changes effected by the splitting of the two schools. But the PARA M A N A N A chose to keep a link between the two for this year. As time changes, so does man, and progress demands change. From old to new, our new surroundings were strange at first but soon most of us at the new building had forgotten the old and the old building became Santa Fe Mid-High in its own right. Though there is a break in our link at this time, we the annual staff hope that the link between the two schools will never be completely broken.

Transfer to New School In March, 1964, a bond issue was passed which enabled the city of Santa Fe to build a new high school to house both juniors and seniors of SFHS. The old building had long outgrown its capacity and students, faculty, and administrators anxiously anticipated the move to the new site in the south of Santa Fe. Phase I of the building, completed in January, 1966, brought problems of transferring over 1100 students to the new high school area. With the cafeteria not yet completed, administrators were forced to provide a temporary quonset hut which would serve hot lunches. New class schedules were handled by counselors and teachers assigned lockers to students who had to find strangely modern classrooms on the unfamiliar campus. Orion Shockley, continuing as superintendent for a third year, supervised curriculum and school activities aided by Philip Bebo, Business Manager; Calvin Capshaw, Director of Personnel; Ralph Digneo, Administrative Assistant, and Eddie Ortiz, Assistant Administrator of Public Schools. George Graham headed the school board whose membership consisted of Phillip McKee, Vice President; Belina Ramirez, Clerk; Allan MacGillvray, and Robert Sweeney.

The Creation of Mid-

Has Made Available

Assistant Principal John Sena

Principal Don Casados

Half-day sessions became full days for sophomores and freshmen who remained at the old high school building, as upperclassmen departed for the new high school complex. The freshmen, who made an earlier transition from junior high, accustomed themselves to premature classing with older students of high school level. Overcrowding of classrooms, halls, and lockers was immediately relieved by the transfer and MidHigh administration and faculty were able to donate more time to students during and after classes. All members of Mid-High no longer had to leave the building at 5:30 p.m. under a darkening sky. Don Casados, previously a student counselor and assistant principal at SFHS, became Mid-High principal and John Sena, also a member of the faculty for many years, accepted duties of assistant principal.

Humanities Courses Teach Students to Speak, Teaching students t o speak, t o think, and t o write clearly are the basic goals of all education. English, foreign languages, reading, speech, psychology, publications, freelance composition, and a new course, humanities, all strive toward these goals. The libraries, under the direction of Miss Iris Laycook and Miss Lillian Kidder, helps students learn to use their time. It also provides a place for studying and meetings. Prior t o this year SFHS offered four English levels. However, this year five levels fill the English department—freshman, sophomore, junior, senior, and English IV. Advancing from basic skills and fundamentals taught in freshman classes, English IV students study composition in preparation for college. In addition to regular study, GREAT EXPECTATIONS impress freshmen; sophomores discover Shakespeare in JULIUS CAESAR and the basic human animalism shown in LORD O F THE FLIES; OUR T O W N leaves juniors with mixed emotions; and seniors are introduced t o tragedy—MACBETH and EMPEROR JONES. The foreign language courses consist of Latin, Spanish, French, and German, new t o the curriculum this year. Each class takes advantage of the audiolingual material, studies grammar, and memorizes dialogues. Latin classes translated CAESAR'S G A U L I C W A R S ; German students formed a club; Spanish classes made Christmas cards; and French students planned a trip to France for pleasure and additional study. Students with special reading problems or collegebound students can find help or improvement in either the remedial or accelerated reading classes.

Speech students learn correct parliamentary procedure, and the presentation of oral interpretation, impromptu speeches, dramatic reading, and special occasion speeches. They also debate a question of national or international concern. Psychology, in its second year, provides an opportunity for students t o investigate the intricacy of the human mind, and discuss problems of adjusting to environment. The students took several surveys which include the "Responsibility of Teenagers", and " O u r policy in Vietnam." In April the classes visited the state hospital in Las Lunas. Besides entering state and national creative writing contests, the senior high journalism class produced first semester the traditional school newspaper, the DEMON TATLER. As a result of an increasing financial deficiency each year, the TATLER staff initiated second semester the DEMON FOOTPRINTS—a news magazine, printed in offset at the central administration office. The Mid-High publications classes produced the MID H I G H L I G H T S , the Mid-High newspaper. The continual presence of deadlines in not only the publications classes but annual class, gives students an opportunity t o prove their responsibility. In keeping with their deadlines, the annual class recorded the events of the 19651966 school year in the yearbook PARA M A N A N A Beginning second semester, the humanities class examined the aspects of experience which make man human. This course, divided into four sections for efficient study, looked a t man as the unknowable. A different teacher taught each section— philosophy, poetry, literature, and art.

Students Learn of Past to Improve Our Future History at SFHS is a study of the past in order to improve the future course of our nation. W o r l d History begins with the very old, and continues through recorded times to the present. From Mesopotamia and the Ming dynasty, to the French, English, and Russian monarchies, from the major wars of this century t o the democratic and totalitarian powers of the 1960's these students strive to gain an understanding of the development of lasting civilizations. One of these lasting civilizations is the subject of a required course, U. S. History. Pupils search through the many facts which tell the story of our nation's history in hopes of discovering the way our government developed, its functions, and its policies in future situations. Economics and civics are considered complementary courses. Civics teaches the pupil the basic principles and functions of the different forms of government: city, country, state, and federal. Economics gives the student an understanding of our country's monetary system and its effects on the workings of government. Students in Fred Trussell's history class listen as he discusses the purpose of the Security Council of the U.N.

Current Events narrows its study to that of the present. Newspapers, magazines, radio, and television supply the main sources of information for the class, accompanied by detailed lectures explaining the whys of these reported occurrences. Sociology studies the behavior of man in relation to his environment. Research covers man's culture, customs, and daily life. Much of the student's work is then related t o the current world.

Basic Math, taught by Henry Borgrink, leads Santa Fe Mid-High students on to the first step of the sequential ladder to advancement in mathematics. Immediately following is Vocational and Shop Math, taught by both Mid and Senior High. These courses help the students prepare for everyday living. The next step on the ladder, Algebra I, introduces the fundamentals of higher mathematics, taught by W. D. Andrewsen of Santa Fe Mid-High. Geometry students, usually sophomores, take this course after the completion of Algebra I. Geometry deals with theorems and the constructions of different figures. Algebra II, concerning logarithms and the functions of graphs, is offered only at Senior High by Mrs. Elaine Worthington and Charles Thomas. The -highest level of mathematics on the Santa Fe High ladder is College Algebra, the study of integral calculus and mathematic induction taught by Mrs. Elaine Worthington. Each step on the ladder of mathematics that a student takes furthers his ability to understand the complex Scientific world we live in. Students are always encouraged to take an interest in Math and increase his knowledge in this field.

Natural Science Courses Prepare Interested W i t h science taking the lead in the improvement of man's everyday life, students who so desire take courses which will help prepare them for what might be deemed the scientific age. Force, matter, energy, light, and heat, the basic studies, were advanced work in the physics classes this year. Efforts t o gain a working knowledge of these concepts were aided by extensive lab work in the new facilities, a new book and James Wilson, the first semester teacher, plus Clyde Faucett the second semester teacher. Further learning was gained by a tour of the laboratories at Los Alamos. Chemistry students once again were briefly baffled by their newfound language of science. Headed by James Sena, studies were mainly centered around formulas, radicals, valences, and ionization. Practical application was gained through experimentation in the new labs a t the new high school. The clatter of new tools and the sound of involved lectures could be heard every day from the advanced biology labs. W i t h Max Norwood conducting the class, students increased their knowledge of biochemistry, including diseases, chemical bonds, and extensive study in genetics by experiments and dissection. Also, sections of the class were devoted to the growing and cultivating of plants and crops. Mid-High students who were scientifically inclined were offered a variety of classes: biology, taught by David Varrato, Amos Melendez, Mildred Wynne, David Johnson, and Joe Thomas, who also taught the physical sciences courses. Jerry West and Arleign Twownsend taught the other mid-high science course, life science. The design gives the students a foundation for the more advanced high school courses.

Driving, Sewing, and

hysical Fitness Are the Physical education, home economics, and driver's education add variety t o the curriculum. Students in these classes receive elective credits. Physical education gives students an opportunity t o participate in competitive sports. In this required sophomore course, students express their skills a t baseball, volleyball, basketball, pingpong, badminton, gymnastics, soccer, and track events. Modern dance (a course offered for the second year) teaches girls t o make up their own rhythmic movements t o modern music, which improves muscle tone, gracefulness, and co-ordination. Through the use of the trampoline, parallel bars, side horse, and balance beam, both boys and girls practice gymnastics.

Above: In the driver's education room at Mid-High, there are many familiar sights—warning signs, gear boxes, and a teacher's desk. Below: After deciding to balte a cake instead of a pie Gloria Waterman looks into a cabinet for the ingredients she needs.

Girls may take home economics for four years. During these years, in addition to cooking and sewing, they study art, child development, clothing, family relations, foods, health and personal grooming, house management, consumer buying, and psychology of living. One learns t o drive through experience. Driver's education provides experience. In addition to behind-the-wheel instruction, the student learns courtesy, and studies traffic regulations, car maintenance, and good driving habits.

Below: Mr. Gann, driver's ed. instructor, gives a student driver an eye test. Other instructors are Ed Knight, Jack Anderson, and Tom Fiorina.

Officers elected during the first month of school led the way for the final phase of the class of '66 high school careers. Class favorites, Royal Blues, and Barney Patcheslcy award winners were announced for the last time. The JuniorSenior Prom was remembered as the last prom attended before graduation. Announcements, invitations, class night and baccalaureate brought closer the realization that 12 years of school were coming to an end with commencement.

Boy's State delegates are from left to right: Ricky Guitierrez, Trent Thomas, Jake Brito, Dwight Ca pshaw, Leo Rios, Leornard De Layo, and Bill

Dakar.

Selected t o attend the American Legion Auxiliary New Mexico Boy and Girl's State is an honor every Junior is proud to attain. Those elected t o attend Girl's State for 1966 were Connie Gonzales, Virginia Vigil, Cathy Compos, Barbara Ortiz, and Jessie Delgado. The Boy State delegates were Bill Duker, Jake Brito, Larry Virgin, Trent Thomas, Dwight Capshaw, Robert Garcia, Leo Rios, Ricky Guitierrez, Henry Baca, and Leonard De Layo. Each candidate was selected according t o the following qualifications: Leadership, Honesty, Character, Scholarship, Courage, and Cooperation. The Juniors interested in attending Boy or Girl's State submitted their name and a list was compiled. The Junior class then proceeded t o vote, narrowing the list to six girls and ten boys. Representatives are chosen from every high school in New Mexico. The Girl and Boy State program has been developed on the fundamental assumption that youth can best "learn t o do by doing." All delegates have their own state and city governments. They elect their own senate, house of representatives, and city councils, as well as city, county and state officials. All delegates may vote and all are eligible to hold office. The University of New Mexico hosted the 1966 Girl's State from June 19 through June 26. Boy's State met at New Mexico Military Institute from June 3 through June 11. Civic and service organizations throughout New Mexico contributed the required fee for the individual delegates.

Above: Miss Mary Lane, guidance counselor, explains the Boy's State registration forms to be filled out by each delegate to Jake Brito and Bill Duker. Bottom: Girl's State delegates are from left to right: Kathy Lovelace, Connie Gonzales, Barbara Ortiz, Virginia Vigil, Cathy Campos, and Jess'e Delgado.

Varsity Cheerleaders Selected to Cheer at

Carmen Alameida, senior alternate, urges the basketball team to victory against the Albuquerque Valley Vikings at the St. Joseph's Invitational Tournament.

The selection of Senior high cheerleaders to cheer for the North-South basketball game August 5 brought honor t o SFHS. Southern cheering squads voted for the SFHS cheerleaders on the basis of cheering ability, spirit, and enthusiasm at the National Cheerleader convention in Albuquerque November 20. Friendliness towards other squads also played an important role in determtning the NorthSouth cheerleaders. In an effort to boost ticket sales, the cheerleaders organized volunteer committees to make posters encouraging students to attend home games. Skits presented during pep assemblies helped promote student interest. Due to the cheerleaders' extra efforts to increase spirit, more students attended athletic games. Mid-High cheerleaders kept spirits up for two teams this year. Through the first semester, cheerleaders led cheers for the Imp team. A t the semester break, the cheering was all out for the Mid-Evils.

Under the guidance of Head Coach Max Norwood, who is leaving for California, the Demons sported an eight win, two loss record, their best since 1943. Coach Norwood had able help with Kenneth Knight handling the speedy Demon backfield and Head Coach-to-Be Austin Basham taking charge of the SFHS linemen. In the first encounter of the season, the Demons ran roughshod over the Los Alamos Hilltoppers 45-14 as Ted Williams totaled 396 years rushing. The Demons later had to forfeit the game because of the ruling on players' ages. The Demons ran through mud and water to beat our crosstown rivals, the St. Michael's Horsemen, by a score of 25-12. After a close first half, the Demons stormed back to dominate the second half of play. With three goal line stands highlighting action, the Demons scored a 25-20 victory over the Albuquerque High Bulldogs. This was a milestone for Coach NorÂŤ wood's crew as it was the first Demon victory in Albuquerque in five years.

Demon Footballers Keep Homecoming spirits were high the first week in October and the Demon footballers continued their winning ways by defeating the tough Del Norte Knights 12-7. The Demons hosted the Farmington Scorpions at Magers Field and scored a 20-19 victory over the visitors for their fourth official victory. Glen Smith and Ron Barela ran for long touchdowns and Ron Mannon kicked the winning extra point as the Demons garnered their first victory, a 13-12 thriller over the gallant Rio Grande Ravens. The Demons journeyed to Milne Stadium in Albuquerque to meet the Valley Vikings. The offense clicked well and the defense was superb as the Demons notched a 33-13 victory. Sandia's Matadors came to Santa Fe only to find the Demons ready to play another superb game. The SFHS linemen led the 33-8 victory by opening holes for the Demon backs and holding the Matadors to minus yardage on the ground. The game with Manzano found the Demons looking ahead to their encounter with the Highland Hornets as the Monarchs dealt SFHS their first District loss 40-14. In the District Championship game with High 1 land, Glen Smith stunned the Hornets with two first quarier touchdowns and it took a gallant effort by the favored Hornets to beat our Demons 27-19. Coach Norwood praised his entire squad for their fine showing against the eventual State Champions.

Varsity Basketball Team Compiles Record of 16-10 In his second year as head coach, Bill Asimos's Demons compiled a 16-10 record. A f t e r streaking through five straight victories, Pojoaque (8350), Taos (95-59), Raton (63-44), Portales (48-46), and Roswell Goddard (69-63). The following night the Demons rebounded t o smash Espanola (67-47). The Demons opened the district season by racing through three straight opponents, Valley (6763), Manzano (60-51), and Del Norte (38-71). Then the fired-up Demons revenged their earlier loss t o the Horsemen in a thriller (60-58). The St. Joe's Tournament was next on the schedule for the Demon squad. A f t e r rolling over Bernalillo (62-53) and Del Norte (72-57), the gallant Demons finally fell to Valley in the finals (69-60). The Demons, still stunned after their loss to Valley, fell to Las Vegas Robertson (63-56)* Once again the Demons recovered and topped Espanola (8762).

and Travels to the State Tournaments in March The next two games proved fatal to the Demons, as Los Alamos (63-57) and Albuquerque High (6245), managed to beat the Demons. The Demons then rushed past Rio Grande (76-68) in a crucial district game, but then fell t o Sandia (54-38). The Demons' attack proved t o be too much for the Farmington Scorpions as they fell (73-67), but the next night the Demons crumpled under the highly touted Highland High (54-41). In the District Tournament, the Demons crushed Sandia (74-56) in one of their best games of the year, but ran out of steam against Highland (60-47) and Valley (91-87). The Demons traveled to the state meet for the second time in three years and met powerful Hobbs High School in the first round. The stubborn Demons fought a gallant battle, but the fierce attack of the eventual State champions proved too much for the Demons (92-73).

Although losing all their dual meets, outstanding individual performances were turned in by Seniors David Ytuarte and Don Davis, and Junior Henry Beca. David, who compiled a 26 win, 9 loss record this year and placed third in the District tournament in the 138 pound class, was further honored by being selected t o grapple against the Japanese All-Star wrestler in his weight class. Although losing by decision, 11-7, he was one of only three New Mexicans not to be pinned by his foreign opponent. Don, a transfer student from North Dakota, after winning his first twelve matches, finished the season at 24-11 and placed second in the 127 pound weight class in the District tournament. Henry Baca, a Demon hopeful for a state championship next season, topped his 30-5 record this year by winning the District 103 pound championship. W i t h Henry Baca who has a 54-8 record through two years and returning Juniors Charles Koehler, Rudy Castellano, Anthony Corriz, and William Ortiz, next year could provide a District Championship for Santa Fe High.

Coach Allen Leads Gymnasts to First Place This year the gymnasts brought to Santa Fe High the one honor i> has missed in the past. They have brought home the trophy signifying the first real  State Championship in Santa Fe High's sports history. With the leadership of Coach Clarence Allen, the captainship of Senior Chris Trujillo, and the determination and ability of all 13 gymnasts, both boys and girls, the gymnastics team placed first in all of its nine meets but one, where they settled for second place to powerful Durango of Colorado. As first place Coach Allen reminded his team members all year, "You can be as good as you want." The success of this two-year-old team seems to show that each member wanted to be good—and was. Their year of hard practice led to the real victory in the State Finals in Roswell, where seven boys and two girls ended up with top honors. Among many other awards, on the boys side, our gymnasts won the first five places on the still rings, top places in the high bar and long horse vaulting, and second and sixth places in All Around competition. Our girls also did well. They placed sixth in State with awards in the balance- beam and side horse vaulting competition. Members of the team came from both Mid-High and Senior High Schools. Leading the team in its successful year were the only Seniors, Chris Trujillo, and Steve Scott. Other active members who won top honors throughout the year included Leo Rice, Dale Hadley, John and Mike Duran, Freddy Cardenas, Bill Morris, Priscilla Cantu, Judy Hawthorne, Louise Simpson, Terry Martinez, and Rose Templeton.

Demon Tankmen Place High in individual Events Under the guidance of new coach Dave Varrato, the Santa Fe High Demon swimming squad compiled an eight win, nine loss team record for the 1966 season. A lack of depth in many of the individual events kept our tankmen from having an even more successful season. A n eighth grader, David Grimes, was the t o p point gainer for the Demon swimmers. He consistently placed high in the individual medley events and placed second in State with a time of 0:59.9 in the 100 yard Butterfly. Senior Gary Rutherford also garnered many top awards in the Breaststroke. He qualified for third in State in this event with a 1:09.1 clocking for 100 yards. Another Senior, Eddy Hamilton, placed fifth in State in the 100 yard Backstroke with a time of 1:03.7. The Demon medley relay team took the second place award in State with Hamilton swimming the Backstroke, Rutherford churning the Breaststroke, Grimes swimming the Butterfly, and Sophomore Peggy Rivera, left, and Junior Elaine Home, right, await the sound of the gun as they set to dive in for their event.

With the addition of many top Junior High School swimmers and next year's returnees, Sloman, Grimes, and Mullings, the Demon swimming squad should enjoy another successful season. For the first time ever, Santa Fe High fielded a Girls Swimming Team. The team consisted mainly of Mid-High swimmers. They took many top awards in their few meets and with essentially the same team returning next season, the girl's tank squad could bring further sports honor to Santa Fe High. Leading the team this year were Senior Joyce Byas, Sophomores Peggy Rivera and Margaret Waganaar, and Freshman Kathy Mason.

Coach John Gunn's Demon tennis squad compiled an eleven-win, one-loss record, their most successful season in recent years. The net squad suffered their lone dual-meet loss at the hands of powerful Albuquerque Sandia. The tennis team found tournament action to their liking also. The Demons took second place in the highly touted Highland Invitational in April. On May 7, the team brought the second place trophy from the district I-AA Tournament. Loyd Waite and Bob Curtis qualified for the State Tournament and after four rounds of stiff competition, captured third place in Doubles action. The Demon netters were led by Seniors Loyd Waite, David Lopez, and Steve Bolin. Next season promises success with the return of Richard Bolin, Roy Stephenson, Bob Curtis, Morris Bell, and Mike Salazar.

Impressive Honors From District Tournaments Cold weather and high winds hampered the Demon linkster's early Spring practice sessions but Coach Max Middleton's team still turned in very respectable performances throughout the golf campaign. Tournament action highlighted golfing action for the Demon crew. Early in the season the linksters copped second place in the Belen Invitational. A few weeks later the team hosted the Capitol City Relays Tournament and kept the second place trophy for themselves. Their fourth place finish in the District tournament was the highest showing ever made by any Demon golf crew. Leading the golfers was Team Medalist Troy Gann. H e consistently led the team t o its high finishes in tournaments. Rounding out the team were Juniors Jim Healy, Keith Scheuer, Kippy Siler, and Mike Quick, and Sophomore Brad Warner. This marked the fourth year of varsity competition for Healy.

Demon Sprint Relay Team Breaks School Records Coach Salvador Perez fielded a largely inexperienced team sprinkled with a few Seniors and still added many trophies t o the Demon Trophy Case. Teamwise, the Demons finished first in the Grants Relays, third in the city's own Capitol City Relays, and second in the Los Lunas Invitational. Senior Joe Mendoza ended his fine high school running career by copping third place in the mile run at the State Meet. Ron Barela and Mike Mares ended their three year stays on the team by consistently leading the Demon sprinters and hurdlers. Mike Butler, a transfer from Tennessee, led the middle distance runners. Senior Terry Arble established himself as perhaps the greatest Demon trackster in recent years. He finished first in the Long Jump in all of the regular season meets and copped fourth in State. He consistently finished in the t o p three in the 100 and 220-yard dashes. He also anchored many of the winning Demon sprint relay teams.

12 Losses and Vacate the District 1-AA Cellar As happens each year, Demon Spring Baseball practice was cut short by Santa Fe's inclement weather. But under the guidance of Coaches Troy " C o t t o n " Gann and Bill Asimos, the Demon baseballers compiled an 8-win, 12-loss record and vacated the District I - A A cellar. Highlighting the season was a 10-0 shellacking of Albuquerque Sandia. The Demons suffered heartbreaking extra inning losses at the hands of State Tournament bound Valley and Manzano. The diamond crew closed the season with seven victories in their final eight games. Glen Smith again led the Demon hitting parade but received capable help from Jerry Baldizan, Ron Mannon, and Joe Burton. A fine pitching staff consisted of Glen Smith, Joe Burton, Sammy Valencia, and Bobby Martinez. Returnees to the team next Spring will include Randy Whittemore, Dennis Casados, Anthony Corriz, Paul Manzanares, and Dave Gurule. Santa Fe Mid-High will also supply added depth to the Demon diamond crew.

SFHS Student Council Works for School Unity This year Santa Fe High's Student Council began its busy year even before school took up. Many of its members met during August to ready the blue and gold handbook. Hoping to promote better school relationships the council entered one of the largest floats, in the annual Fiesta parade, wishing all schools good luck in the coming year. During their first regular meeting, with the newly elected representatives, the council began to make, preparations for the upcoming Homecoming activities. Because of the loss of a sophomore class the council undertook the job of putting on the Homecoming bonfire in addition to handling their regular duties. The football season was in full swing and the Student Council purchased blue and gold fireworks to help cheer the mighty Demons to victory. Thanksgiving, the council sent holiday greetings to the boy's in Viet Nam while Christmas season found them caught up in the true Christmas Spirit. Through a tri-school dance they raised enough money to adopt a family, the girls at the St. Vincent's orphanage and contribute to the Santa Fe Christmas Store. The Snowball Formal, gaily decorated in a pink and red candy cane theme, closed the school's activities for the first semester. The second semester, opening in the new school, brought with it many new challenges and pro|ects which were climaxed by the State convention held in Hobbs. A t the close of the convention the delegates returned home to sponsor a Citizenship day, a Mr. Ugly contest and Presidential elections.

Night Through Car Bash, Bonfire and a Parade The gun sounded and the Demon fans flocked onto the field after the Santa Fe High School Demon football team conquered the Del Norte Knights of Albuquerque with a victorious score of 21-7. The homecoming game had come to a conclusion and the hopes and enthusiasms for a victory had come true. The 1965 Homecoming Queen, Alice Ortiz, directed the students of S.F.H. from a weatherbeaten, troddened, floodlit field to the dimly lit hard wood floor football field. Queen Alice and her attendants, Ellen Davis and Patsy Rivera, Seniors; Lindy Ganns and Francis Otero, Juniors; conducted the Grand March to the Demon goal posts, artificial posts made of blue and gold crepe paper, where the queen reigned over the dance seated on her throne of honor. Music was provided for the students by the DÊfiants of Espanola. Pre-game activities included a week packed with events which made up Spirit Week, incorporated into homecoming festivities four years ago. Monday, September 27, the girls at S.F.H. wore ribbons of the traditional colors, blue and gold, on their pigtails while the boys wore bows on their fingers. "Rather Fight than Switch", the theme for Tuesday, found blackened eyes on the students of S.F.H. in support of the winning Demon team. The annual "Car Bash" sponsored by Key Club, offered students the opportunity to buy "swings" at an old, "beaten"up car which represented the Del Norte Knights. The "Bonfire" on Thursday night helped to build the students enthusiasm for the next day—THE BIG DAY. The annual Homecoming Parade, with more entries from homerooms and clubs than ever before climaxed the program activities.

The H C C members also visited the Los Lunas Children's Hospital for the mentally retarded and witnessed the conditions of the patients there and the methods used to help them. In addition t o these activities, the club requested several speakers t o come and talk t o them about different careers that are available in the health field. Dr. Roy T. Chan spoke to the members about optometry: Mrs. Dick Stenzhorn about dental hygiene; and Hal Fielding about medical technology. These people explained t o the H C C the education needed, the schools that specialize in these careers, and the opportunities available in these careers. Early in the year, the H C C members worked on the March of Dimes Campaign and donated money from their own treasury to the March of Dimes Foundation. In March, for the second consecutive year, the club collected clothes for the Save the Children Federation which distributes it t o poor children in poverty stricken areas. The club bought new books for the library and donated $50' t o their annual fund, St. Vincent's Hospital, which was begun in 1964. In order t o appropriate such donations, the H C C sold southwestern design stationery and conducted a Valentine's Day bakesale.

SFHS Forensic Team Places High in District and " I second the motion", is a phrase often used by the members of Gavel Society. Formed by the Speech I classes, Gavel Society gives students an opportunity t o practice and learn the intricate rules of parliamentary procedure. The organization is divided into three chapters; Minority, Majority, and Seniority. To use every mechanism of parliamentary procedure, each chapter draws up its own constitution and then elects officers. A f t e r completing constitutions and electing officers, members begin their study of speaking in its various forms—dramatic reading, oral interpretation, and platform and special occasion speaking. Top left: Virginia Vigil, Bob Keesing, and Nancy Alarid are first semester officers for the Majority Chapter of Gavel Society.

The sponsorship of the traveling forensic team is the organization's most important function. The profits from food sales and "Sadie Hawkins" provided money for the team's expenses. This year the team traveled to Taos, Los Alamos, and Albuquerque. After placing in the district meet, Mike Kahn qualified for the state finals. A t the end of the year, Gavel Society held its annual speech banquet at the Eagles' Club on May 19. A t the dinner each student gave either a special occasion speech or an impromptu speech.

Kooky and colorful costumes decorated the halls and classrooms of Santa Fe High on Friday. Students rid themselves of those 'ol academic frustrations for a nickel by "Kicking the Kigmy" on Wednesday. Homerooms entered their conception of a twirp on Thursday and Mr. Rael's class won out of 15 entries. Tuesday, "Slave Day" was considered t o be the best out of the week—by the boys.

The names on the ladder changed several times during the year, but the Chess Club went to the district tournament with Mike Kahn, David Michaelson, Roy Stephenson, Mike Miller, Tom Grammar, and James Hunt. O n April 2 1 , the Chess Club played a minor tournament with St. Michael's High School there. The score was tied in the first two rounds, but SFHS won in the third by one point. 181

Michaela Millington, 1966 Snowball Queen

I

Hours of hard work transformed Sweeney Gym into a ballroom for the annual Snowball formal December 22. The Student Council presented the Candy Cane theme in the traditional peppermint colors: red, pink, and white. The false ceiling of crepe paper disguised the usually seen rafters and paper candy canes decorated the walls. The table centerpieces included Christmas greens and real candy canes. Ladies and their escorts danced around the pink flocked Christmas tree accenting the center of the dance floor. Following the Grand March led b\f Student Council President George Ann Zahn and ner escort Danny Romero, the faculty selected the Snowball Queen and her attendants on basis of appearance and school co-operation. Michaele Millington, crowned by last year's queen, Elaine Lavadie, reigned as the 1966 Snowball Queen. Her court included Seniors Robin Johnston and Anita Montoya; Juniors Marta Archuleta and Cathy Lovelace; and Sophomores Terry Rumph and Carol Van Buskirk. Students danced to the music of the Dave Willis Orchestra and refreshments were served in the D.E. Department. The movie "For Those Who Think Young" was arranged specially for Snowball-goers after the dance at the Yucca Drive-In.

Editor, And! Thoe; Business Manager, Carol Streete; and Mary Rita Padilla, look over an issue of the paper published by the class.

Journalism and creative writing, a combined class taught by Robert Saam, witnessed many changes during the 1965-1966 school year. Due to a lack of funds, the Demon Tatler, the newspaper published by the journalism class for many previous years, became the "Footprint", a magazine with a completely new format. The first issue of this magazine, published in March, contained editorials, features, and news stories done entirely by the students. Andi Thoe took on duties of editor, assisted by Mary Rita Padilla, exchange editor, and Carol Streete, advertising manager. In the creative writing department, efforts were rewarded by the New Mexico State University with a first plate award in the short story division for Nancy W o o d and Roy Stephenson, and honorable mentions were given t o Sue Bohning, poetry division, and Andi Thoe, short story division.

and Gold With Red Tassels for Top Ten Percent A t eight o'clock on Thursday May 27, nearly five hundred Seniors marched into Sweeney Gym to the music of the Santa Fe High School Orchestra to receive their diplomas signifying the end of twelve successful years of school work. After a short address, School Superintendent Oreon C. Shockely presented the two Commencement Speakers, Linda McLarry and Sheila Riddle. They had achieved this honor by being selected over three other top five percent Seniors who tried out before a panel of judges including Mrs. Marjory Carr, Mr. Ben Rael, and Miss Rose Fidel. Principal Dwane Raile then officially presented the Class of '66. Each Senior then marched across the stage to receive his diploma and a congratulatory handshake from Allen MacGillivray, School Board member. The now graduated Class of '66 then marched out, the girls clad in yellow gow'ns, and the boys in the familiar blue. Many Seniors left with tears in their eyes. But nearly all left with a feeling of pride that they had climbed the first major hurdle in their lives.
