THE CHEM AWA AMERICAN PAGE 2 The CHEMAWA AMERICAN Published Weekly at the Salem Indian Training School Chemawa, Oregon, HARWOOD HALL, Superintendent Address all communications to Ruthyn Turney, Manager SUBSCRIPTION 50 Cts PER ANNUM VARSITY DEFEATS PACIFIC COLLEGE Our varsity defeated Pacific College last Friday afternoon at Newberg by the score of 19 to 6. There was simply nothing else for Pacific to do but be defeated, for Chemawa w’ent into the game to win and that spirit prevailed from the first wdiistle till the last. There is never much chance of stopping a team with that determination and fight. The usual waiting and stalling around which was so much in evidence in previous games was left out entirely in this contest. On the first kick-off, which was a beautiful one made by Reginald DePoe that sailed up high and almost over the bar, eleven red-jersied red skins raced down under the ball ready to down the man in his tracks. That was a real start and from then on every play found all of Chemawa’s eleven men in it. The line which was composed of Sedan Thomas and Robert Fielder, center; Willie Skinna and Moses George, guards; Paul Keta and Sam Nerguson, tackles; Charles George and Peter Rassmusson, ends; opened up holes in the line as bigas freight cars, which enabled Reginald DePoe, Jake Atkins, James Thomas, Ray mond Sanderson, John Kowasuk and Tom Anayah, alternating in the backfield, to dive and dash through the Pacific lines for long and consistent gains. These same backfield men skirted out and around the Pacific ends in no ordinary fashion and interfered nicely for the runner. Reginald De Poe w’as the most consistent ground gainer for Chemawa and was out in the lime light a little more than the rest on account of his punt ing. All of his kicks went off nicely, with plenty of heighth and distance. He easily out-kicked his opponent. With the ends functioning properly Pacific would not have been aide to return any of his punts one inch. DOMESTIC SCIENCE NOTES Marian Morgan, Eva Martin, and Martha Edelman are making the high school lunches this week. The Prevocational Home Training classes are in charge of Florence Shurovaloff this week. Florence says it is great fun to teach. Judging from the appearance of the Senior girls we must have some fine cooks this week. The cooks are Flora Dexter, Eva Martin, and Charlotte Bremner. Two of the Senior girls, Harriet Hill and Mabel Bremner, are cooking for the football team this week. This gives the girls practice in cooking for a large number. So far we have heard no complaint from the boys. A dinner was prepared for twenty-seven Corvallis High school boys last Saturday. Although the girls had only planned for eighteen boys they managed to find food for the others. Domestic Science girls who cooked the meal were: Flora Harper, Evelyn Green, Doris McCarty, Hilda Jackson, and Edith Day from the seventh grade; Grace Johnson, Edna Audette, Mabel Bremner and Agnes Ponchene from the Senior Class. Stella Bolster and Rose Baker were orderlies who did their share of the work also. DOMESTIC ART NOTES We are succeeding nicely in our work as “practice makes perfect.’’ We thank the carpenter boys for additional tables and chairs. They have made it very convenient for us. The most important of all is the Christmas gifts and the little dainties which are just being started and will be on sale a few weeks before Christmas. We are expecting a large crowd up here, so if you want our very best, we advise you to come early—we as sure you that we have everything here to please you. Stop! Look! and read! It’s just ns again. The hap py Juniors, rendering our so-called news which we know every one on the campus enjoys. We suppose you are all curious to know what we Juniors are doing up in our Domestic Art Department. First of all we have completed out every-day dresses. The little ties, and set in pockets add very much to the appearance of them. We are very anxious to w’ear them, but will have to wait, ow’ing to the fact that some have been de layed on account of being on duty in other departments. SENIOR NOTES We are all glad to have the Chemawa American back again. New class members are Henry Kitka, John Milne and Lloyd Jenson. Our class now numbers forty-four. We hope to have a couple more. The senior girls are very fortunate to have Mr. Fisher as their botany teacher. We find botany very interest ing. The seniors are very glad to see that some of our boys are taking part in the football games. Watch the next game and see how many there are. The seniors had a class meeting some time ago and elected the following officers: Reginald DePoe, pres ident; Anna Peratrovitch, vice-president; Henry Bowker, secretary; Raymond Sanderson, treasurer; Reno Booth, cheer leader and Charles Moon, sergeant- at-arms.
