As usual, craft work was an important part of the Indian Lore program. The boys made articles to be used with Indian costumes such as breech clouts, moccasins, headdresses, and necklaces. One of the outstanding projects was the only drum completed during the season by BOBBY MANDEL. BOBBY also made a beautiful beaded belt, BOBBY REICHER, a belt of b-eads, and MICHAEL LAZERWITZ, a breech clout. and a pair of moccasins. Very nice leather vests were made by STEVEN FASS, PETER FASS and MARC FRIEDMAN. ROGER KAHN made an attractive beaded vest. ROGER KAHN and JIMMY LIEF also were ac- tive as dancers at campfire programs both in the boys' camp and a special performance for our girls' camp. Some boys, led by KENNY FELLER, attempted fire making with flint and steel and bow drill, ex- actly as the Indians did for hundreds of years. All the Bluejays made head bands, belt sets and necklaces-all in all, a successful year in Indi- an Lore. We learned about the customs, traditions, dances, games and history of American Indians. Over the years, our Indian Lore Director, D W 'ff V if 15,391 fn. Dwayne Reeves, has given us the most authentic program of American Indian lore and history in camping. Dwayne, whose tribal name is Two Bulls, has lived with and around Indians all of his life. During his childhood, Dwayne was with the Coman- che and Kiowa tribes, but his knowledge of tribal culture extends to the Kierea Apache, Wichita, Osage, Pawnee, Caddo and Cheyenne tribes. Dwayne's interests carry over into his work, for during the school year, he teaches American His-tory in the Lubbock, Texas H. S. ...,.,,,,?v-bv, ,,,,.,-.1
