They initiated two new members into the club. Wilma
Lehr and Lorraine Dennis. A short program of nurs
ery rhymes was given. The sponsor, Miss White, gave
a talk on the program for the year. Monday, the 21st,
we gave a Thanksgiving play.
CHEMAWA AWARDED GAME
In the regular playing time Hood River high school
defeated Chemawa 7-0 in an Armistice day game, but
we were awarded the game because Hood River played
an ineligible man, Tom Swanson, who scored all of his
team’s points. Swanson is a tenth term student. Che
mawa is undefeated for the season but is out of the run
ning for the state championship.
Chemaw’a played listless ball during the first half
and allowed Hood River to badly outplay us and
score its seven points. Hood River made 8 first
downs to none for Chemawa in the first half.
During the second half the team played good foot
ball and kept in Hood River territory most of the
time but lacked the punch to score. During this
half Hood River was held to one first down while the
Indians gained six.
Swanson, fullback, and Turner quarter were the
outstanding members of the apple pickers. Meachem
and Cook were outstanding on defense. Meachems
line plunging gained most of Cnemawa’s yardage.
Chemawa’s traditional rival, Salem high, will be
played next on Sweetland field in a night game on
Thanksgiving, Lets all get out there and back the
team with loud cheering in the last big game of a
successful season. This will be the farewell game for
Roy Meachem, Howard Churchill, Ben lyall, Leonard
Vivette and Leonard John.

ject that has swept the whole country by storm.
Junior Red Cross held their weekly meeting at the
Doctor’s cottage, Monday 14. We are making dolls to
send to Siletz and Grande Ronde for Christmas gifts
and a scrap book for the younger patients in child hos
pitals. The girls who were in the practice house are
very glad upon being able to return to the hospital,
although their return caused the loss of Melba, Marie,
Alice and Dora from our hospital force. We are all
rejoicing as Doctor Sisco is on his way to recovery.

letter men’s organization came to order for the election
of officers, which resulted as follows. President, War
ren Wilder; vice-president, Leonard Vivette; sec
retary, Vincent Pratt; treasurer, Domonic Dogeagle.
Business that needed immediate threshing out was dis
cussed. A pep rally, to precede the Hood River
game was urged. The right kind of management for
future athletic programs was carefully talked over.
Because of the expenses of athletic activities, it was
decided that each individual member should encourage
the season ticket sale. We want to be of service but
just have to to have the co-operation on the part of
every one.
