THE CHEMAWA AMERICAN PAGE 2 The CHEMAWA AMERICAN Published Weekly at the Salem Indian Training School Chemawa, Oregon, HARWOOD HALL, Superintendent Address all communications to Buthyn Turney, Manager SUBSCBIPTION ÖO Cts PEB ANNUM ATHLETIC NOTES A little bobble in the first inning put our team up in the air last Friday and Albany won an easy victory, 7 to 1. It was the most listless game our team has played this season. Though Charles George pitched a good game and turned back 12 of Albany’s hitters, his teammates were unable to come down out of the clouds long enough to get together and put up any thing like an effective defense. But it was a revamped team that took the field last Saturday afternoon at Oxford Park when we met Salem high in a return game. A couple of weeks ago Salem took our team to the cleaners for the first time in many, many moons and the boys vowed it wouldn’t be done again. Salem had won every game they started and said they were going to repeat, but Salem finally met her masters when our batters hit their star pitcher, Fabrey, for eight solid smacks and came home with the long end of the 3 to 2 score. Salem folks say it was the best game they have seen this season. It was marked by few errors and bril liant fielding by both teams. Some of the stops and catches made by the Salem team fell little short of brilliant and saved them from a much larger score. All season our team has been falling short on the batting end of the game, but their work in Saturday’s game was effective. The Salem twirler found it hard to get the ball past our hitters and succeeded only twice in sending our men back to the bench. Solo mon Fleury, our southpaw twirler, had little diffi culty against Salem’s batters, striking out ten men and allowing four hits. By walking seven men in all he got himself in several bad places, but each time pitched his way out. He held the red and black hitters at his mercy throughout the game. Jake Atkins caught his usual good game and started the fireworks for us in the first inning by slammingout a pretty two-bagger and was scored on Fleuty’s hit through first. In the eighth inning the team scored the third and winning run when they bunched four hits in a row. SENIOB NOTES Kendall Northrop, senior carpenter, is making two tabourets for exhibit. The tenth grade boys have analyzed thirty-nine specimens and have only one now to analyze. Anna Peratrovich, Reno Booth and Raymond Hal dane each sang a solo last Thursday in Portland. Chas. Moon made a very handsome appearance in his graduating suit, which was made in the tailor shop. Ed Sanderson is laid up with a “Charley horse,” sustained while playing ball in the game against Col umbia University last week. All of the Senior boys and girls attended the Sigma Phi Deltas’ Annual Spring Party and they said it certainly was enjoyable in every way. Many thanks to the Sigma Phi Deltas. Seniors are always there! At the Older Boys’ Confer ence in Salem two weeks ago Nick Stepetin was elect ed one of the two secretaries, and Reno Booth was ap pointed a reporter for one group. We’re proud of them. The Seniors are going to act a scene of the Merchant of Venice in the auditorium today. John Kalarak will give the biography of Shakespeare. Some of the main characters are Portia, (McLeod), Antonio, (Hal dane), Shy lock, (Stepetin), Nerissa, (Woodcock) and Bassanio, (Dupuis).
