Meal fu! Since tepee days, maidens and braves have joined the tribes oi West Seattle to drink from the spring ot knowledge and atiluent opportunities which flow here. Sun upon sun, papooses enter the lodge, novices at the art ot living, ignorant and void oi poise, seli confidence and thoughttulness only to make their depar- tures iour suns later with assurance and culture in their strides. Some oi that they acquire from books and the lore oi the wise ones, much oi it they harvest from know- ing, working and sporting with fellow tribesmen. With their older brothers at war, tribes- men have tound the ties binding them together pulled more tautly with the de- mands oi the war beast thrust upon them. The tasks and ceremonies they've per- formed together will weave pleasant mem- ories ior tribesmen to look back upon long after the sun has gone to sleep behind the purple mountains to the west. ik

Ju! 79415 OFFICERS Neil Oqden President Bill O'Brien Vice Pres d Margaret D Secretary Roger Mc Nutt Treasurer Mr. Kimball Counselor Mr. Mackey Sponsor When the braves and maidens of the class of l945 dis- appear behind the last bend on the path of high school educa- tion, with their sheep- skins tucked firmly under their arms, their feet will carry them on to new hunting grounds, while their minds and heartsiwill echo pleasant mem- ories, like magnets pulling them back to the old reservation. As papooses, they stepped upon that path only a few moons before war clouds broke over America. But under the guidance of their class counselor and sponsor, Mr. Warren Mackey, they elected lim Burroughs, presi- dentg john Capis, vice presidentg Cor- rine lohnston, secre- tary, and Bobert johnson, treasurer. Further up the path, as sophomores, the tribe joined their brothers on the West Seattle range in con- verting the school onto a wartime status through the Victory Corps, hailing as their chiefs, presi- dent, Tom Boyd, vice president, Pricilla Fox, secretary, Lila Saarig and treasurer, Lyle lVlcAlphin. The path grew more precipitousg by the time they reached the junior level, some braves had already girded themselves for battle beyond the great waters to the West, while those yet in the lodges of their fathers labored for victory by co- ordinating the sales -of war bonds and stamps to other lndians on the range. Leading tribesmen were Bay jensen, presidentg Ed Bray, vice presidentg Mary Flack, secretary, Leroy Layton, treasurer. With the end of the trail in sight, Neil Ogden was elected presidentp Bill 0'Brien, vice presidenty Mar- garet Dear, secretaryy and Boger lVlcNutt, treasurer. Chief Kimball re- turned from the Navy to take over as counselor, and with braves jump- ing astride their battle horses at each new dawn, the '45 tribe took conservation of essential materials as their contribution to winning the war in which they'd lived for the past four suns. Books were collected at the lodge for servicemen's reac- ing, while transportation and ac.- hesive tape were on the conserva- tion list. So, gather- 5 ing up their B l u e a n d White colors, red camelias, and motto, EXperienta Optime Docet, the tribe of l945 leaves old West Seattle reservation to ,, begin their ' M mysterious trek up the trail of the future.
