T he CHEMAWA AMERICAN
FROM THE DORMITORIES
MITCHELL HALL
During the afternoon of Armistice most all of us
Mitchell hall boys went to the woods to work on our
log cabin. Even though our ‘ ‘bull cook, ’ ’ Hugh Edmo,
was absent, his shoes were filled by an outsider,
Franklin Juneau of Brewer, who did a very good job
in filling us with delicious stew. We are glad that
Mr. Lavatta and Mr. Bent inspected our building
last Sunday. If all goes well Mrs. Wilcox and Jul
ian Larnard will give a party for the officeres at Mit
chell during Thanksgiving week.
BREWER HALL
Peter Emmons, one of our officers, left for his
home in Wagner, South Dakota. Everybody is sorry
to lose Pete. Ike Vanderberg was transferred from
McNary back to Brewei again. Brewer hall’s foot
ball team showed McNary how to play football and
defeated the big boys 27-0 last Sunday.
WINONA HALL
Another new girl for Winona is Dona May La-
Fonso, who is a post graduate from California. We
now have 20 girls. At the meeting held by the Win
ona hall officers refreshments were served. Hereaf
ter meetings will be held every Sunday night.
MCBRIDE HALL
Miss Clark attended the Hood River-Chemawa foot
ball game and is glad the Indians finally won.
Of the ten boys listed to visit McBride hall Sun
day only one brave boy appeared from Brewer hall.
We are still looking for the other nine.
SHOPS
The depression hasn’t affected the painters this year.
Some of their recent jobs completed are: Mr. Smith’s
house, the interior of the bakery, and Mr. Boyes’ kit
chen. Besides painting they also repair windows,
make pottery and paint scenery. Milton Whitman
is learning to make pottery and George Pepion is learn
ing to paint scenery.
We have several new boys in the engineering depart
ment. They are rapidly learning the operation of the
steam plant. Every morning each division gets a class
to study circuits and electrical distribution. We are
looking forward to installing electricity in several of
the buildings on the campus.
DOMESTIC SCIENCE
Miss Strauch has resumed her work again. We are all
glad to have her back. During Miss Strauch’s absence
the senior cooking class proved to be the best behaved,
therefore they are privileged to have a dinner Friday
night.
P age 3
The tenth grade girls who takeup foods at the Wig
wam have just finished the study of various cuts of
meat. We have planned a trip to the Valley Packing
Company in Salem. We are now studying decorating
and garnishing different foods. We thank our foods
instructor, Mrs. Melovidoff, for giving us the privi-
ligeof experimenting with the foods we have studied.
On Monday the fourteenth, Hattie Haydon, Nancy
Reynolds, Mildred Smith and Lillian Billy moved to
the practice house. November 22, we are inviting
our friends to dinner at the practice house. Turkey
is to be our main dish.
