afternoon when the report was

The mule and buggy were there

much to the chagrin of some of
the bewhiskered members of the
community.
H. G. Dudley, locsl horse deal

even the Whiskalantes jealous,
purchased a mule and buggy for
his wife to drive in the Pageant

the mule "some practice." He

It was 20 years ago this Septem
ber that the Obsidian Club was
founded under rather harrowing
circumstances and by a group of
men who, with the exception of
one, have retired from active
mountaineering with the club.
This August the one remaining
active founder will lead his twen
tieth Obsidian climb of the North
Sister In the Cascade Range.
One of Five
The veteran la Ray Sims, whose
activities among the major peaks
of three states aeem to have kept
him young. Sims wss one of five
men who sat down one grim Sep
tember day in 1927 and decided to
form the Outdoor Club, later
changed in name to the Obsidian
Club.
They were among 250 men who
had been searching the rugged
Three Sisters area for ten days,
looking for Guy Ferry and Henry
Cramer, two University of Oregon
students who left to climb the
Middle Sister, were esught in a
blizzard, and never returned.
Bodies Found
"The students' bodies were
found exactly two years later by
Harry Hayes, a trapper from Mc
Kenzie Bridge. They had frozen
to death," Ray recalled.
It was while the search was go
ing on that Ray, Ed Turnbull, El
mer Maxey, Sid King and William
Landrum decided to form a club
that would educate would-be
mountaineers, provide leadership,
and train for rescue work.
There were 42 charter members
of the club, six or eight of whom
are still active. The club now has
more than 200.

Ray's first climb of the North
