Runners What a great thrill these Runners had as they first set their moccasin-clad feet on the Garrett High campground. They had looked forward to this experience for many moons; and now that the time had really arrived, they were ready to grasp with all their might the tasks which lay ahead. To distinguish the different beats of the tom-toms, to learn where all the tepees were, to ferret out the complicated combinations of the lockers, and above all, to be ready to participate in the many activities of the camp were a few of the tasks. Too, they were old enough to attend the fellowship ceremonial dances which were held after the games. No group can accomplish much without leaders, so under the capable direction of the experienced tribal chiefs. Miss Evard, Mr. Sherman, and Mr. Woodcox, the following principal runners were elected; Jacqueline Roberts, president; Janet Limpert, vice-president; Robert Dawson, secretary-treasurer. To best prepare themselves for an understanding of their opportunities and obligations, and to enable them to participate in the affairs of the reservation, many ways and means pow-wows and ceremonials were held. Now that these people have become accomplished runners they are looking forward to a bigger and better year as Eagles.

After a year of experience in the Senior High Wigwam these eagles were well aware of what was expected of them, and they were going to do their best to live up to these expectations. As the year commenced, this tribe soon got into the spirit of things with Mrs. Schlecht, Mr. Rose, and Mr. Harmon as their tribal chiefs. It was decided that each member of the tribe should pay fifty cents to be used for refresh¬ ments at the various activities during the year. Interest in school events was shown as they attended the war dances after the games, were always well represented at the pep sessions, patronized the junior concession stand, and participiated actively in other activities of the reservation. Roller skating parties were special features of the eagle class, and happy hunting grounds” were to be found by all those who attended them. To lead other eagles around the foot-trails, William Putt was chosen as president; Shirley Baker, vice-president; Joan Helbert, treasurer, and Basil Rowe, secretary. 20

Upon re-entering the Reservation these young and ambitious tribesmen advanced one degree and were to be known as “owls . Under the wise guid¬ ance of Mrs. Fouch and Mr. Rahmer, these owls have kept their eyes open and their minds ever alert to what v as going on about them, for they must prepare themselves for the ceremonials vrhich -will admit them into the Senior High Wigwam. Part of the guidance periods every Tuesday was spent in discussing the subject of citizenship. Outstanding citizens of Garrett were studied during that time. This helped them become acquainted with citizens of their com¬ munity, and at the same time gave them materials and patterns from which to copy and to help plan their future. Like father, like son, and so the saying goes in the tepee of the owls. With only four years to go their time is short in which to learn the ways and means of society. However, it must be learned if they expect to take part in it, and through their curricular and various social activities it shall be learned, and they shall eagerly look forward to the future. What will come no one knows, and only the passing of many moons will tell. But whatever it is, these redskins will be prepared to face it. 22
