T he CHEMAWA AMERICAN P age 4 DOINGS AT PRACTICE HOUSE A group of girls moved into the practice house re cently. The girls and their duties during the first week are listed below: Helen Shaughnessy, cook; Mary lyall, 1st waitress; Cassie Ball, 2nd waitress; Evelyn Placid and Margaret Landergren, housekeeper; Maudie Marshall, hostess. Miss Strauch keeps a close check on whether or not the girls are performing their duties. Everyone has been doing fine so far. Es pecially Helen Shaughnessy as cook—the girls enjoy her cooking very much—she is both prompt and effi cient. Dorothy Teehee, Herman Grant and Uriah Alex ander were practice house guests on Nov. 17. Miss Semanski was a guest for breakfast on the 18th. They hope she enjoyed being a guest as much as the girls enjoyed having her. LOCAL Raymond Bagley returned to school last week. He had been working for the E. C. W. in Washington. Donald Brown, a former student, returned to Che- mawa Saturday to attend school and prepare himself for a short college course. Miss Audrey Lavelle, of Portland, visited with friends in Salem and Chemawa Sunday. She was a guest of Miss Vivian Larson while visiting the school. Josephine Sommers, dietician in the Good Samar itan hospital in Portland, visited her many friends here last Sunday. She was the guest of Mr. and^Mrs. Mason. Mr. Joseph Hall, instructor in barbering, had the misfortune to catch his left hand in the door of a car last week. Immediate and expert medical attention enables him to continue with his work but under a considerable handicap. Mrs. William B. Showalter has just returned from a prolonged visit to her home where she was called by the serious illness of her father. We are happy to learn that he is recovering very nicely now. Needless to say, Mr. Showalter was glad to have her back. A recent report from sources vested with authority substantiates the early grapevine telegraph report of turkey for both students’ and employees’ Thanksgiving dinners. Ere long the day will arrive when we will all be munching happily on drumsticks and various other choice portions of Mr. Gobbler. During the past week there has been a great deal of tearing down and piling up in the vicinity of the plumber shop. The activity centered about the old well-house, one of Chemawra’s landmarks, which is at last succumbing to the wrecking bar to make way for a newr and modern plumbing shop. A recent subscriber to the A merican was William Wall, a Chemawa graduate with the class of 1929. William is working on the Big Horn County News of Lodge Grass, Mont. , and expressed great appreciation for the training received at Chemaw’a. He is now a married man and greatly interested and absorbed in the business of providing groceries for the family. We w’ere very proud to receive this good newrs about one of our old “print boys.” James Rosario enrolled in Salem high school two weeks ago and he is doing very good work in his studies. James is taking a preparatory course for commercial law. On Wednesday, Oct. 15, the junior class held a try out to discover spellers for the inter-class spelling match to be held Dec. 26. The other classes should be on similar searchs for talent. An affair of no little importance to the invited guests and Alice was the “feed” given Sunday night after chapel by Mrs. Wilcox. The occasion celebrated the anniversary of the birth of Alice Bachman. The party was enjoyed more than somewhat by one and all. On Nov. 10, the student girls working in the club gave a very delightful party to a number of their boy friends in the club dining-room. The campus orches tra was invited and furnished music for dancing and entertainment. Mary lyall and Marie Farron each sang a vocal solo as a part of the program. Mrs. Wil cox, Miss Cruise and Miss Hoffman were faculty members invited. After a good time at games and dancing the girls served a delicious luncheon. BRAVES BATTLE ALBANY TO TIE Chemawa’s fighting little football team w’ent on the field Monday, Nov. 13, and did themselves proud. Out-weighed at least twenty pounds to a man they out fought the husky Albany reserves and held them to a scoreless tie. On twTo occasions they held the bull-like rushes of the collegians on their own one-yard line. In the second half Albany attempted to pass and the Indians intercepted. Chemawa then tried the aerial attack only to be stopped by the reserves intercepting their pass. A short while later the Indians again in tercepted a pass intended for a collegiate end, mak ing three intercepted passes in succession. The starting line-up for Chemawa was as follows: Ends, Arlee and Vivette; tackles, Greene and Adams; guards, M. Anderson and W. Parker; center, Keyote; halves, Alexander and Gates; quarterback, LaBresche; full-back, Emmons.
