November, 1948
Soccer Tournament Nears Climax
As the soccer tournament gets
underway, we find a wonderful
spirit and some grand team work
among the tribes. All the tribes
are in there fighting, and the
spectators apparently have “yell
ing fever.” It seems to be a un
animous feeling that never before
has there been such equality in
tribes, so far as soccer is con
cerned.
The Cherokees and Choctaws
opened the tournament with an
exciting game which the Choctaws
won by a 3-2 score. Then the Hi-
wassees and Mohawks battled a
close game with the Mohawks
coming out on top, 6-5. Long-week-
end and bad weather broke up the
tournament for a week or two but
the tribes came back with more
vigor and the next three games
proved to be the most exciting
ones yet! The Navajos and Choct
aws tied, 0-0; the Cherokees and
Hiwasses tied, 4-4; and the Nava
jos and Mohawks tied, 0-0.
Tuesday, November 16, the
Choctaws and Hiwassees exhibit
ed a great spirit of determination
by playing more than half a game
in the midst of an autumn down
pour. Spectators fled for shelter,
but the two tribes stuck to it and
the drenched Hiwassees came out
victorious over the just-as-wet
Choctaws, 6-4.
The Mohawks ran away with
the next game, beating the Cher
okees, 10-0. Both tribes showed
some good playing and good team
work.
Saturday’s game between the
Navojoes and Hiawassees was a
fast one with the Navojoes a little
in the lead until the finish, when
their score was 8 and that of the
Hiawassees, 6.
Blackfeet and Chickasaws
Begin Tournament
The Blackfoot and Chickasaw
game on Friday opened the High
School soccer tournament with a
flourish. It proved to be a closely
contested battle, indicated by the
final score of, 3-2, the Blackfoot
tribe taking the first game of the
tournament.
On the following day the
Apaches tangled with the Shaw-
nees. The Shawnees put up a stiff
battle in spite of the absence of
two of their top players. It was a
tough game with the Apaches on
top in the end by a 4-0 score.
The next game, on Tuesday, was
played between the Sequoia and
Blackfoot tribes. It was an ex
citing game also; the Sequoias
made one goal in the first half and
three in the second. The Black-
fcots found themselves unable to
score in this game, although they
threatened the Sequoias a number
of times.
All the tribes still have several
more games to play before the
tournament ends, and they need
the cheers of every tribe mem
ber. Be sure your tribe gets the
finest sideline support.

Board Initiation
Creates Spectacle
“Oh, my aching back!” was the
expression most of the newly-el
ected board members were gasp
ing Saturday night after their all
day initiation. After all those hills
they rolleil down, all tho.se .slides
they took, and all the other drills
they wgnt through, most of them
came out alive! Probably the most
painful part of the initiation was
that the new members could not
talk (what punishment "for some!);
and if they did, they talked with
their tongue between their teeth.
It was quite a sight to see such
oddly - dressed girls roaming
around the campus and doing such
strange things as bowing, kneel
ing, and reciting poetry for the
old board members. But they all
proved to be wonderful sports and
we are proud to have the follow
ing girls on the Board: Margaret
Boseman, Cheerleader; Mary Lily
Burgess, Executive Assistant; Pol
ly Hawkins, Soccer; Sue Morris
on, Softball; Margarita Orozco,
Volleyball; Jane Rice, Indoor
Sports; Jean Tussey, Basketball;
Alice Wardlow, Co-Hiker. Con
gratulations, girls!
The initiation was climaxed
with a party. Games and refresh
ments were enjoyed by all the
