The windy day of March 31, 1922, was the
date on which one of our little senior girls had
her first glimpse of the world at Toppenish, Wash
ington. When she discovered that the little city
of White Swan was so much larger than Topp
enish, she hopped the “ White Swan Special,” a
streamlined iron-horse, and stayed there to grow
up with White Swan.
This young lady started school in the Medicine
Valley Country School, and spent three years
there. Then, in the fourth grade, she entered the
White Swan school, and devoted six more years
there. One day, a friend toldher about Chemawa,
and she roped a wild mustang, packed her suit
case and galloped down here, breaking all speed
records. She arrived here all “ rarin to go,” and
has been here ever since. She will finish her
high school work here, and is making plans to
attend Willamette University next year.
“ Bugs” as she is known to all her friends, is
taking the commercial course, for her greatest am
bition is to be a private secretary. She has many
hobbies, and her favorites are collecting pictures,
reading comic books, and a number of sports,
and dancing. “ Bugs” always has a friendly smile
and, “ Hi, hon” to greet her friends. She likes
to “ slug good” on extra good eats, and also likes
typing, and “ to be different.” “ Bugs” has no
liking for slang, although she uses it once in a
while. Her motto is “ Liveand learn.” To Theda
Ashue, we wish the best of luck and happiness
in her future life. May she live by her motto!
A cold blustery windswept over the small town
of Nespelem, Washington, on March 19, 1923

ior girl, Doris “ Boots” Nanamkin. When she
was a sophomore, Doris heard about Chemawa
and how good a school it is, she deserted her
classmates in Nespelem to enter here. Since that
year, she has been a very studious little girl, and
is now majoring in commercial. Her greatest am
bition is “ to be a good stenographer sometime in
the near future.” Her hobbies are reading Grace
Livingston H ill’s books, and collecting pictures
of her many friends. Bor sports, Doris enjoys
playing golf, swimming, basketball, baseball,and
To this proud and happy senior, we join wish
ing much success and more happiness as he goes
forth to gain his greatest ambitions, which now
are—to become a professional basketball player
and to be a trumpeter for an orchestra.
Being born in Lame Deer, Montana, on April
15, 1920, he later entered school there and indue
time finished grade school. Then deciding that
he wanted a vocational education, he came to
Chemawa to learn barbering.
He is also taking commercial and must soon de
cide which he wants for his profession.

ball. He received a gold basketball for being in
the state tournament, and a medal for placing in

Juniors Stage Benefit Dance
At the Junior Benefit Dance Saturday, January
11, the students and many employees enjoyed the
evening dancing to the music of Mr. Mitchel’s
orchestra from Salem. The Gymnasium was dec
orated with much straw, which made everyone
feel “ at home” in their come-as-you-are attire.
During intermission several members of the
junior class, with Miss Morse as director and rea
der of the play, put on a pantomine skit, “ Mel-
lerdramer.” It was of the humorous type and
everyone seemed to enjoy it very much. After
intermission the dancing continued until 10:30

another enjoyable evening was ended.
