OUR THEME Finding ourselves in the territory once populated by members of the Iroquois Confederacy, we chose the civili- zation of these Indian tribes as the theme for our 1953 nCentury.u The basic lawor supporting framework of the Confederacy was well expressed by Alexander C. Flick, NUsing the commu- nal dwelling house, the members of the league established a league of tranquillity among their people and encouraged peaceful pursuits.N Within our school we, too, unite to promote successful daily living in the light of democratic goals. The Civil chiefs held authority over all,as does the Board of Education. The Civil Council,comprised of the eld- ers, who made and executed the laws, is represented by the administration. Representativesof each ofthe nations forled the Great Council,our faculty. We think of our senior class asthe Mohawk, mightiesttrkw of the Confederacy. The juniors couldbe likened tothe next most important tribe, the Oneida. We give the name of the third tribe, the Onondaga, to the sophomore class. The Cayugas, the fourth nation, are the freshmen. The fifth nation, the Seneca tribe,had the most members, as do the seventh and eighth grades. The youngest tribe,and the last to become a part of the Confederacy,was the Tuscarora whose counterpart is the ele- mentary grade section. Now, let us follow the trail to the council fires. 6
