The CHEMAWA AMERICAN
why visiting teams have so many nice things to say
about our domestic science department.
This week our class teams will move into action.
The first to play are the freshmen and sophomores.
CHEMAWA TO PLAY NIGHT GAME
Friday our team will play the Oregon State Fresh
men at Corvallis in our first game under the arc lights.
The game will start at 8 o’clock. The Freshmen,
with their hordes of highschool stars, has always been
a tough problem for our boys to solve. Their number
and weight, however, being more the deciding factor
in the outcome, rather than aggressiveness, or fight.
None have tried harder nor pnt more real spirit into
the game per man than have our elevens, yet that un
ending number of willing workers the Rooks keep
pouring into the game can hardly be reckoned with.
But lighter teams than our present one, which aver
ages something around one hundred and fifty-six
pounds, have given the Rooks a torrid sixty minutes.
Our scrimages of last week, however, had very little
fire and “pep,” and unless our backs and our linemen
charge with a lot more steam they are sure to be pushed
and rushed all over Bell field Friday.
Very likely Leonard Vivette and Albert Miller, ends;
William Jones, line captain and right tackle; Charles
Motschman, quarterback; Wallace Hosie, left half;
Warren Wilder, field captain and right half; and Roy
Meachem, fullback; will be in our starting line-up.
There is still much question about the starting guards,
center and left tackle. The center post is still being
battled for by Fred Sandberg and Lonnie Weeks.
Peter Levay and James Walters have so far been
given the call over Harry Archam beau and Dennis
Brown. George Thompson and Clifford Iron Mocca
sin will fill the other tackle berth. Just who will be
given the first opportunity to show their wares de*
pends largely on how they show up in the scrimmages
this week.
With the return of “Lefty” Wilder, who wascalled
home because of illness in the family, our offensive
strength has increased considerably. By the end of
the week John Trottier will also be free from a lame
ankle. Elmer Kalama is recovered from a lame side and
will be ready for duty in the Rook game. The absence
of these three men have given Howard Churchill an
opportunity to work and he has uncovered many tal
ents.
Last Saturday twenty-four of our boys fell heir to
a real banquet. Miss French and her domestic science
girls most graciously invited them to enjoy a dinner
they had prepared for the Pacific University Reserves.
At the last minute the game was postponed to be played
here at a later date. Our boys have not enjoyed any
thing so much in a long time. It is easy for us to see
GENOA PRODUCES GRAND CHAMPION
We are especially pleased to make the following re
print from the Omaha Daily Journal-Stockman, in
which outstanding success along stock-breeding lines
is credited to the Genoa Indian School, as follows:
Nebraskans took more than usual interest in the
placing of Clarissa Col., Duroc Jersey aged sow as the
grand champion sow of the breed at the recent state
fair at Lincoln, inasmuch as she is the product of the
United States Indian School at Genoa, Neb. Her care
and fitting was largely the work of Homer Snake, an
18-year-old Winnebago Indian youth who is in his
sixth year of work at the school and who broke the
traditional Indian stoicism when his sow received the
highest honors.
It might be remembered that this school received
this same award at the first National Swine Show which
was held at Omaha, at which time President and Mrs.
Wilson asked that the U. S. Indian School grand
champion be driven out for their inspection.
Under the direction of Superintendent Sam B.
Davis, this school has obtained a high rank among
the breeders and farmers, not alone for its work in
teaching agriculture among the Indians, but for its
work in the pure-bred livestock field, with the result
that its Duroc Jersey swine and Holstein cattle herds
have long been recognized in this territory as second
to none in duality, productivity and bloodliness.
That this school is at last receiving the recognition
due it outside of Nebraska is noted by the fact that
recent appropriations for the Department of Interior,
Indian Field Service, makes provisions for the estab
lishment of Holstein dairy herds at the various other
Indian schools. Such herds and their management
are to be patterned after the Nebraska school at Genoa.
This is a source of much gratification to Nebraskans
who take great pride in this school and who have long
recognized the valuable work of Superintendent Sam
B. Davis in placing the school’s Holstein herd among
the leaders of the country.
