SCOUTS HAVE WINTER OUTING On January 30, 1965, 19 explorer scouts of Post 123, and 12 Boy Scouts of Troop 23, Chemawa, went to Government Camp oh Mount Hood to see the dog sled races. Some of th e . boys watched the teams being hitched in preparation for the 12:00 noon race, which oth er boys walked up to Snow Bunny Lodge to have coffee and look around. During the afternoon some of the boys rented inner-tubes and went sliding on a hill behind the lodge. While at Government Camp, Thomas Kameroff had his picture taken by Don Hobart of “High and Wild Television Show.” The picture includes Thomas and the dog' sled which he made here at Chemawa. We all thank our scouting advis ors for taking us on such an excit ing and enjoyable trip. Vincent M. Tutiakoff GOOD WEATHER BRINGS OUT FARM EQUIPMENT The beautiful spring weather has given a real opportunity for the farm equipment clashes to get out into the fields and put into practi cal use the things they have been learning during the stormy winter months. Some of the activities that have been carried on lately have been operating the big tractors with discs and plows, digging trenches with the back hoe, leveling and planting’ the fields, and making trails and clearing brush with the bulldozers. The Guidance Staff in the Girls Department chose j1 h e following girls as Girls-of-the-MOnth for the months of February: Sophie Balluta, Phyllis Miller, Olga Standi- fer, Nancy Patsy, Carol Kompkoff, Mary Iyahuk, Grace One, Kathy Ol son, Kathy Inga, Gloria Morena, An nie Mann, and Gloria Hawthorne. Each month 8 girls from Winona Hall and 4 from McBride Hall are chosen for citizenship. At the first assembly of the month they are presented with awards and letters of commendation. Beginning for thé month of March, in addition to the Girl-bf- the-Month award, there will also be a Unit-of-the-Month award for the outstanding unit in each dormitory for the month. Special awards will be givèn these units. LOTS TO EAT The Agriculture Club had a big feed in the month of January. The main dish for the feast was a cou ple of nice fat weather lambs. Ben Noberto was chief cook with Wil liam Tritt as his able assistant. To the meat basis the boys added pota toes and hot chili along ^with plen ty of milk and hot coffee. The gang said it was a real feed with all you could eat and plenty left over for dorm snacks. Farm Reporter William Tritt NEW CLASS ADDED On January 8, a new class in typ ing beg&n on our campus.
