About The Chemawa American (Chemawa, Or.) 19??-current | View Entire Issue (Dec. 20, 1940)
7 ^ ~ ....... ................ ETIviee ¿¡Blight” stmofis This senior hails from the Fort Hall reservation, which is located in the State of Idaho. He is well known as a boxer in the Pacific Northwest. He was born just a week before Christmas, on December 18, 1922. This is his final year in high school where he is taking up both printing and commercial. He is the treasurer of the Senior class, and is one of the boy’s officers in McNary hall. This “ leather pusher” has many a fight to his credit, and is the bantamweight champion in the State of Oregon. He was chosen to participate in the National A. A.U. boxing tournament which was held in Boston, Massachusetts. He was the second boxer from Chemawa to compete in this tournament. This handsome gentleman is none other than Dan Snipe, who is lending a hand in training the boxers this year. On the bright wintry day of February 22,1923, there came the loudest war-cry e v e r heard at the Crow Agency, Montana. This loud cry came from a little baby girl who has grown up to be one of our best senior girls, Pearl Deernose. She spent her first nine years of school at Hardin, Montana, and then, hearing of Chemawa, she packed her little bag and scooted down here as fast as her legs could carry her. Pearl is taking the commercial course and hopes to be a secretary above all else some day. For her hobbies, she like collecting birthday cards and Christmas cards as souvenirs, and she delights in collecting snap shots of her many friends. She may be found reading mystery books at most any time. Pearl enjo y s hiking, swimming, dancing, basketball and baseball as sports. Her greatest “ like” is lot of eats, with good coffee. Pearl is the treasurer of the Girls House Council, and also the treasurer of the Y W C A . She is a good student in her classes, or anywhere. To Pearl, we give our sincere wishes for a life of happiness and good luck. In the little village of Browning, Montana, on the morning of May 7, 1922, the dawn was just a wee bit brighter as it shone upon one of our senior girls. She spent the first seven years of her life at tending Browning Grade school, and the next year at Bismark, North Dakota; then her urge for traveling brought her to Chemawa, where she is finishing her fourth and last year. Her hobbies are dancing, ice skating, and col lecting match folders. She spends a great deal of time reading her favorite books—all about the great romances. Her ambitions are to be a nurse, and to “ see the world.” She has a very healthy appetite, and her favorite dish is dried fish. Her dislikes are few—just boys, in general, and getting up early in the morning. Finishing her studies in Home Economics, she will graduate this year. So, to Lucille Mae Nessbaum, we wish the very best of luck. -------- v-------- Agriculture Club (Continued from page 3) BEN FINLEY TELLS HOW HE SHOES A HORSE BY B E N F IN L E Y 1.
