NOTES
By BOB THOMAS

HOLLYWOOD R,---Lo, the poor
Indian on the TV and theater
screens.
| He is pictured as bowling, war
paint savage. His vCcab-
ulary is limited to ugh and he
is shown going mad on fire water.
HE submits cowboys and pioneers
| to all kinds Of torture, and muir
ders for the heck Of it. In fact,
he is accused Of just about every
thing shcrt OF being an enemy
alien or a Communist.
Some Indians don't like the way
their race is portrayed in the
movies and on teleyision. One of
these is Iron Eyes Cody, Chero-
kcc who is in a position to do
something about it, An expert on
Indian lore, he has been in the
movies as actor and technical adj
visor since 1.-The Covered Wagon"
in 1924. Only recently has he fcen
able to induce producers to lessen
their libels CT the redskins.
"There have lately been some
excellent pictures that show the
Indians side," he remarked, nam
ing such films as Devils Door
way" Broken Arrow" Conan
che Territory" and Navajo
But still there are too many pic
lures which are either inaccurate
or put Indians in a bad light. For
instance, the studios nearly always
paint up the Indians like African
savageS.
1.-The truth is that the Indians did
nc put on paint to look ferocious.
They only put on lines Of color to
represent dreams they had before
going into battle. Certain lines
meant they dreamed they were
| going TO die, and so forth.

there is no such instance in West.

Iron Eyes added that the Indi-

Story In Sun
Illustrates Project
At Kitzmiller High

A part of the metrogravure sec
ton of The Sunday Sun was used
this week to illustrate the story of
the Kitzmillel High Schools prof.
ect last year in creating a botani-
cal garden.
Under the title "A Wilderness
Turned Wonderland" the story of
the development fostered by Mel
vim Brown, botany teacher, is des-
cribed by John Alters. The story
accompanied six pictures. Pictures
show the water wheel, a fountain
end pool, fireplace and shelter,
windmill, and some of the unusual
botanical specimens planted in the
garden. The front page of the
magazine also had full picture of
the entrance to the gardens.
The students in science class
started out labelling few trees on
the school property. Then the for
estry department became inter-
ested and specimens began to ar
rive. The citizens of the town be-
came enthused and offered help.
An eroded hillside marred the set
ting and the Lions club bought the
tract and turned it over to the pu-
pills for reforestation.
The science class made records
of the more than 500 botanical
specimens labeled and issued a 49,
page booklet with drawings of the
leaves and descriptions of the
plants.
The magazine article tells fully
of the activities of the group. The
story was told earlier in weekly
and daily newspapers.
