THE RELAY
Our relay team by winning the 50
mile relay race between Salem nnd Port
land over a hilly road have won a great
victory for Chemawa. The student body
appreciate this and when the, Southern
Pacific bringing the victors ; back from
Portland stopped at Chemawa, the boys
were lifted on the shoulders of their fel
lows and carried bodily to their quarters.
On Monday evening, the sixth, we
had the most enthusiastic, rally ever
held at Chemawa. It was attended by
the entire student bodv and employees.
The band furnished the music. Mr.
Chalcraft presented the handsome gold
medals, which were donated by Mayor
Lane of Portland to each member of the
team. Mr. Campbell thsn presented the
school with the beautiful trophy - A
Silver Cup - to be added to the four won
in previous contests. Cheer upon cheer
rent the air as the victors! stopped forth
to receive their medab. A number of
new . school Rah! Rahs! were sprung
new school songs were sung, and all in
all it was a gala meeting.
At the end of it, a bounteous banquet
was given the team and about 75 of their
friends. .Toasts were- numerous, and
each member of the team gave their ex
perience, while on the run. A feature
of the banquet was a 5 ft. by 2 ft. pie,
a luxury the team had noc indulged in
while in training. This oecuppied a prom
inent place on. the banquet tables, sec
ond only to the Beautiful and handsome
silver trophythe1 Cup.
Even those who do not profess to be
sports "were excited on Saturday.
''Gardening time" boys and girls, let
