Mgr.................Barbara Lammert Advisors......................Mrs. Arthur Hillmer Mr. Malcolm Young '’v - ' THE RESERVATION Set on top this high hill is the reservation where 151 squaws and braves come to acquire knowledge. Many of us spend four of our hap- piest years here; although most of us won't ad- mit it. To guide us we have 11 capable chiefs showing us how we can cope with life. Coming in the near future is an addition to our school. This addition will help us further in preparing for the future. It will include: a deeper stage, better shower facilities, a locker room for the band instruments, and several band rooms. We hope this part of our reservation will be done by fall. The addition will extend from the rear of the gymnasium--which was erected in 1939. 2 GREAT WHITE FATHERS Our great white father s that run the school are: Henry Orienti, Director; Herb Scharenberg, Clerk; and Villiam Bartlett, Treas- urer. They are the unseen guides of our little reser- vation on the hill. It is with their guidance and approval that many of the great de- cisions are made. One of the main events in which the Great White Fathers par- ticipated was the voting of a new addition to our school. TRIBAL COUNCIL 3 Nancy practices her typing lesson. CHIEFS LAWRENCE A. KIGER.
