These brave youths that today you sec exhibiting their strength and prowess, are the scouts of the tribe of 153151.

Howard Raiche and lsadore Lonier represented the tribe on the lnter-tribal basketball team and Neil Tipper on the basketball team. Clara Ochetti was the tribal declaini-er. The an- nual pow-wtnv was held February 23. After the passing of twenty-seven moons, the tribe of the Kingsfordians again broke camp, still under the scoutage of Pasko-wa-wa.
