THE JUNIO R LIFE 45 is clone by William Schef, Hetty Sparks, Art Nepple, and James Daley. The game LaCrosse is played by Eleanor Johnson, Eileen Scttcm, and Rose Flohil, while a game of shinney is played by Donald Lee, Allen Bjcrke, Elsworth Johnson, and Parnell Morgan. But notice these odd-looking poles in front of some of the tepees. They must be totem poles. Yes, we learn the strange carving and designs tell the story of the family. By studying some of them we would be able to learn more about Bob Becker, Kenneth Marvin, Clifton Olson, Shirley Morris, and Dorothy Prout. How obliging these people are. They are willing to dance, sing, and beat the drums for us. The drummers arc Jack Gedney, John Hines, and John Santrizos. Flute and fife players are John Engquist, Clarice Raich, Mary Owen, and Roger Swanson. The squaws, Audrey Shcrlund, Rosemary Kelly, Shirley Steward, and Gail Linder sing for us some very interesting ceremonial songs while the potlach is danced by Ehrhardt Petrich, Robert Bratt, Lester Schlink, Raymond Evans, fames Page!, Ivanette Niison, Solange DeVoir, Margaret Sullivan, Alice Licdloff, and Edith Cunningham. This dance accompanied a ceremonial feast during which immense quantities of personal property were given away, often impoverishing the giver but securing for him great merit and deep respect of his fellow tribesmen. We learn that there arc many of the O-Nine-Be-Gas who are worthy of special mention as they have excelled in some line. They are the following: Mfdicine Men Carl Witham Donald Sundt Charles Kcllar Fire Tenders Robert Nord Robert Keller Jay Margulies Hunters Hunter Como Jack Wood Richard Session Karl Best Fleet of Foot Arnold Haglund Walter Coffman Jack Fclzman Gene Dryer Swimmer-. Ray Johnson Tom Hopfcnspirgcr Robert Bouchicr Mary Jane Farley Geraldine Wickenhocfcr Betty Swedenborg Bfadworkfrs Velma Olsen Mazic Dawes Dorothy Warren Betty Ashcndcn Helen Armstrong Arrow Makers Parker Zell Einar Olson Melvin Bernard Donald Underwood Weavers Ruth Aldrich Amma M. Thompson Carol Dudley Fishers Leigh Kalina Joseph Smith Herbert Davidson Thomas Schatzlcin Louis Kravetz Dyers Anna Henneman Eleanor Hicks Hockey Steve Koulagiancs Blythe Caldwell Arnold Johnson Jerry Beaudcttc As we finish our tour of all the camps, a group of little Indian children run on ahead of us to the main lodge. They say their names are Virginia Murphy, Bob Hanson, Aldomary Walgren, and Donald Heath. And so ends an unusual experience with the Indians of this wonderful country. How much there is to learn about them as well as from them.
