JM 211114 Senior History As Seniors of O.H. S. , we wish to give our heart felt thanks and appreciation to our teacher and friend, Mrs. Harms. She has guided and counseled us throughout our Senior year. Whether our troubles were large or small, she was always there with a ready answer. Struggling through Grammar - -Macbeth- -English Literature - -she always told us to not get discouraged, hold our head high and wade through. ' Again we wish to thank her for her willingness to help. As we entered our fourth warrior year, the first thing we had to do was to pay off a S50 debt which we owed to the student body. Then we felt full-fledged. In the Fall we had as our guest Tita Del Castillo--an exchange student from Mexico. At the annual tree planting, we were represented by our Princess, Rose Metzker. Our play, Inner Willy was excellently protrayed by two and a half casts given in three performances. For the big Pow-Wow QJunior Carnivalj our papoose was Joan Cash. We certainly had to strive to get money for the Senior Trek, but every member did his share of the work at food sales-- car washes -and the slave trade. And how we enjoyed the plenty-good trip! To celebrate our leaving the reservation we chose blue buckskins, white feathers and white weeds. Big Chief Dr. Elmo Stevenson of Oregon Southern College came to smoke our last peace pipe with us. Our motto was small deeds done are better than large ones thought about. As third year papooses we could and did order our rings. The next big event was to interpret the play, The Night Of January l6th to a full house. We sponsored a Homecoming dance, a Juni or-Senior Banquet--Hawaii Callsg the Junior- Senior Prom-Rhapsody in Blue and the Junior Carnival-- l00l Nights at which our Princess was Marlene Bedell. ry The second year members of the Wigwam numbered seventy, who soon initiated the first year papooses. One of our papooses-Nancy Bales represented us at the big 1-',' Pow-Wow. This was the year to decorate for the big ' ' warrior commencement. After one hot Indian summer seventy-two of us from the tribes of Oakridge, entered the big tent. We crowned Lola Rumelhart Queen of the big Pow-Wow--we painted the O -- sold at games. Though green with the artistic brush of the Wigwam we decorated for the big, handsome warriors for Baccaleurate Evening. We warriors of '56 thank the faculty and students of C 0 Oakridge for a Heap-Um Good Year. K Marlene Bedell A ' Wayne Clark, Bill Shanks 9
