SE IOR CLASS 9'-rf-4' 21 ee' the teepee, of the Owego Free Academy, to indulge in four terms of diligent work. Before we began weielected our new chief, who is Leon Halstead, and ,smoked the pipe of peace, which to us is a symbol of peace and democracy, between the braves and squaws of one of the greatest tribes -u.4.s,,, 4 'ff 12? 2? 1-5' 44 'f?f' is L '. T THE BEGINNING of the year a new tribe of Indians settled down in .4 g in the history of our school. Although books, pencils, rulers and homework were very important to us, we still had time for other activities. Our Indian braves took part in many exciting basketball and football games which left us breathless and teeming with excite- ment and anticipation for the next one. The squaws also participated in sports such as basket- ball, hockey, softball, and volleyball under the skillful direction of Miss Helen Cunningham. Those students who were not actively interested in sports took part in other activities such as the Public Speaking Contest, the Senior Play, and the Dramatics Clubq A good example has been set for us by the boys of previous senior classes, who have been in the service of our country, and have come back in order that they too might graduate. They have all told us how important school is and how much it will mean to us in years to come. Although we quite often gripe about the over abundant amount of school work our teachers give us, we know that it will help us in future years, and that every bit of homework we do is for our own good. We are going to miss all this work and we will always have pleasant memories of the medicine men as well as the fellow braves and squaws of our tribe which to us will always seem great and incomparable.
