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 Ruthyn Turney, Manager SUBSCRIPTION 50 Cts PER ANNUM ATHLETIC NOTES The College of Puget Sound won an exciting game from our team here last Thursday afternoon by a score of 4 to 2. Up to the eighth inning the score stood 1 to 1, with neither team having any advantage because of the splendid defensive game played by both teams. Long hits, line drives and fast grounders were picked up and handled with the grace and ease of profes sionals until the disastrous eighth when our team mixed a bunch of booted balls with bad throws and allowed the loggers to put across the plate the three winning runs. Our half of the eighth started like a rally for us when Atkins was hit by a pitched ball then stole second and came home on DePoe’s hit to the field. But that was all short lived, for our hope suddenly vanished when Fleury, Davis and D. George were put out in one, two, three order and left DePoe stranded on on second base. The best we could do after such a promising start was to add one tally to our lone score. The score book shows that the work of the pitchers was about even. Fleury, pitching for our team, allowed five hits and struck out seven men, while the college pitcher was found for six hits and struck out seven men. During the week the team will play the Oregon Normal School at Monmouth and on Saturday we play the North Pacific Dental College team here. The Dentists have a team of semi-professional ball players and are the top notch collegiate ball team of Portland, so our rooters can expect a lively game. A short time ago they defeated us in Portland by the narrow margin of a 7 to 5 score, but our boys intend to even up matters in this game. With the nearing of our commencement festivities the classes are getting their track teams organized and in shape for the Annual Track and Field Meet. Needless to say that the many splendid prizes offered for the winners of the various events are very attrac tive and well worth working for. We are glad to note that several of the student organ izations are already preparing their stunts for the campus program which is held during commencement. Out of an impromptu meeting this has grown to be one of the important affairs on our program and much interest is always manifested in the program. Without exception nearly every organization is represented, which makes it one of the best entertainments of the year. DOMESTIC SCIENCE NOTES Good day, good friends, a fair day, to hear what we cooks have to say. We all looked foward to the big supper which occur red on May 22, for all intended to get our fill, both cooks and guests. Demonstration week is on its way. One division of our girls have already given their dinner and it was a success. The cooking demonstration will be given during the closing week. Well, dear friends, we, the Junior class, wish you good luck now and in the future. DOMESTIC ART NOTES Howdy, folks! Well, here we are again. As you all know, the exams began last Friday. We all looked forward to them, hoping to come through safely. The costumes made by the skillful fingers of the classes of ’27 and ’29 are nearly completed. We are also finishing up the fancy work which is to be shown during demonstration week. Several girls were dyeing last week. No, it wasn’t serious; they were only dyeing various colored fairy costumes. You have our kindest wishes for your success in the final exams. T he C lass of ’29.
