P age 4 T he CHEMAWA AMERICAN JUNIOR GROUP SELECT OFFICERS CHEMAWA HUMBLES PACIFIC COLLEGE In what we called a home coming- here last Friday, “the golden brown children of the sun” took the giant Pacific College boys to camp in a nip-and-tuck battle. The only score of the game came in the first few min utes of play when a punt booted by the redskin full back, Nuckolls, was recovered on the college boy’s goal line, giving Chemawa a touchback. The ball was brought back on the twenty-yard line, the redskins being in possession of the ball. In a series of plunges and rushes by Chemawa, Nuckolls made the onlv touch down of the game. The try for conversion failed. The last three quarters were devoted to line plunges and in complete passes on the part of both teams. In the latter part of the game a beautiful 15 yard pass was com pleted by Nuckolls to St. Martin. The starting line-up was as follows: Fred Harris, right half; Frank Conway, left half; Virgil Nuckolls, fullback; Pressley LaBreche, quarter; Edward Case, left end; Fred Hoptowit, right end; Lawrence Bennet, left tackle; Wilson Cook, right tackle; Peter Berger, left guard; Walter Bennet, right guard; and Matt Adams, center. Some of the substitutes who got in the scramble are: Louis Youpe, quarter; Albert St. Mar tin, right half; Louis Jamison, right guard; and Isaac Vanderburg, right end. These bovs, some who donned suits for the first time, played a good exhibition of heads-up football. Chemawa is scheduled to meet Salem high school Saturday night. This is one of Chemawa’s best rivals and the game ought to be a good one. The last game played was two years ago when Chemawa was defeat ed 7-0. The game will be played under the arc lights ofSweetland field at Salem. McNARY HALL The building is now filled to capacity and everything is going on as pre-usual. It seems that someone in every room has a musical instrument. If some of you folkscan stand it, come and listen to the building about 6:00 o’clock in the evening and you will be entertained with “Chinese music.” The adviser says that he has three patirotic citizens in the building. He bows every time he meets them. They are named “Washington, Lincoln, and Jeffer son.” They boast of being descendants of the fam ous presidents. The junior vocational students met with their spon sors on September 26 to elect officers and make prep arations for the coming year. Because of the large number of junior students, they were divided into two groups—junior group I and junior group II. Junior group I. under the sponsorship of Miss Went zel, Mrs. Cronk, and Mr Showalter, elected the fol lowingofficers: president, Donald Holt; vice-president, Nobel Sanderville; secretary, Dorothy Henderson; girls’ treasurer, Marguerite Arcasa; boys’ treasurer, Joe Russell; song leader, June Courville; yell leader, Elmer Thompson; sergeant-at-arms, Gilbert Glenn. Juniorgroup II, with the help of Mr. Allen and Mr. Thomas, elected the following: president, Nicholas John; vice-president, Eva Johnson; secretary, Mabel Ball; girls’ treasurer, Lucy Borg; boys’ treasurer, Clifford Day; song leader, Catherine McGovern; yell leaders, Evelyn Baker and John Decker. Both groups decided to have officers’ meetings at an early date in October to plan the first events for which they are responsible. LOCALS Burnev Wilson, graduate of 1912, now financial clerk at Klamath Agency, paid a short visit to Che mawa on Sunday. Lucy Billy and George Lucei, both former students, have purchased the license and having gone through the other preliminaries, making them man and wife. They will make their home at White Swan, Wash. Naomi Red Cloud, former student, died at her home at Pine Ridge. S. D., on August 22, after an illness of several weeks. Previous to her illness she had made plans to return to Chemawa. Francis Thomas and James Rosario are both attend ing Salem high school this year. They are ’34 gradu ates and are taking college preparatory work. Francis has already made plans to attend Kansas University next year. CAMPUS ITEMS Carl Turner, local artist with rod, reeland musket, has been spending his week-ends near the coast “fool ing the fish” and tracking venison. A rally was held last Thursday evening for the pur pose of acquainting the new students with the Chema wa yells. Louis Orr and Alice Walters were elected yell leaders. Mr. Fred Rickard, boys adviser, has purchased a tenor saxophone. He has promised to entertain us with a solo a month after it’s purchased. The time is drawing near and preparations are being made to have “Buck” Smith here on the occasion. I am sure Mr. Smith will go through “fire” to be able to see him perform.
