Pahhe has invited his friends
to visit him at his new address,.

He must move from the Haskell
campus since his employment
there ceases. but he will remain
in Lawrence to be near his beloved
Haskell and to be within driving
distance of his daughter. who is
married to geologlst in Oklahoma
and his son. who represents limo

AS he looked at his oil paintings
and sheet music before leaving
Haskell. Pahhe explained how he
was able to adjust to the loss of
his left hand At first he was
extremely depressed. as amy IT,
year-old boy would be. He read
an original poem which explains
his philosophy-an Interpretation
of an event that occurred when he
was boy.

Rain the World Over.
That summer afternoon. I stood
On mountain top
And saw gray skies cover me
Sitting thread like streams of silver
Upon the mountain top.

Shone clear and bright. the sun.

How could the sun shine yonder
And the clouds weep over me2

But in that moment, clear and

Was revealed to wondering boy:

LAWRENCE, KANS. There is a
big difference between Pahhe
YaZZa's unenviable debut into the
realm of formal education almost
three score years ago and his
retirement at Haskell Institute.
The Navajo Indian began school
at Fl. Defiance. Ariz., in the early
1905 because his father thought
him less bright than his brothers
and therefore accepted a wagon
from Indian affairs officials in
exchange for permission to educate
Pahhe.
Marking his retirement after an
evenfful career as artist-drafts-
man-poet musician gardener
custodian. a potluck picnic last
week was attended by about $50
Of his fellow employees at Haskell
He is 70 and must retire from
federal service.

been known at Haskell since 1910,

remained at Haskell until 1913
to learn drafting. He worked in
Kansas City for the Carmes Arti-
ficial Limb Company for 20 years
and returned to Haskell when the
depression eliminated his job in
1888.
Drafted Despite Handicap.
Pahhe YaZZa recountS some of
the unusual distinctions of his
career:

A permanent reminder of
Pahhe's presence at Haskell will
remain after he is gone. About
26 years ago at the superimend-
ent's request he drew in colored
pencil the likeness of the head of
a Navajo. The picture hung in the
superintendent S office until the old
building was torn down several
years ago. Now it hangs conspi-
cuouSly on the second floor of
Curtis hall. the student lounge and
cafeteria.
Other examples of Pahhe
YaZZa's widely distributed art
were seen at Haskell each Christ
maStime for more than 20 years,
when he went into many classrooms
and with chalk drew On the black
boards such Christmas scenes as
the three wise men. baby Jesus
in the manger. sn0w-drenched
landscapes and other Yuletide i'm
preSSionS.
Pahhe received art lessons
about 40 years ago in night classes
at the old Central high school at
Eleventh and Locust in Kansas
City. and later in night classes
at the Lawrence Memorial high
school. He has kept some of his
art work. baIt much has been given

Referring to white men as a
group. Pahhe said:
They are very smart. They did
not treat US right at first, but
they are doing much better. Look at
the progress they have brought to
this country"
Some Prefer Reservations.
The Indian believes his people
will integrate more closely with
other Americans as time passes,
although some will desire to re-
main on reservations and preserve
their racial and cultur homo
geneity.

played being Yazza' S original COM
position.
In addition. he paints in oils and
water colors in his spare time,
writes his own sheet music, includ-
ing love songs and band pieces,
composes poems based on Indian
lore. and raises gardens.
The drafting of Pahhe into the
Army was a fluke. He was a
largely self-taught musician play
ing with the National Guard band
when the United States entered
World War in 1917.
They just came along and
drafted the whole shebang," he
explained. ''They gave us orders
and ! went along with the group.
IL was ready to fight for my
country. But when the doctors
examined me and saw my arti-
ficial hand had to tell them about
the accident in the carpentry shop
at Haskell. They would not let me
go with my gang they put me

His Radio First"
Being the first baritone horn
player to perform as soloiSt on
WDAF came also as a result of
Pahhe's musical proclivities. He
was playing regularly with the
Knights of Pythias band in Kansas
City. and Zone day they put us On
the RADIO" he said. when
played my solo it came off very
well and the radio people told me

ever to perform solo On their sta
tion. ! was proud"
Pahhe said he played with the
band despite his ineligibiliry for
membership in the organization,
being a non white, because ne liked
to play and because "Iwanted tobe
a good fellow"
Being the oldest player in the
Haskell band and the only graduate
to play regularly with the band
was easy for Pahhe. He was the
custodian of the auditorium IN
which the band rehear S.
"They welcome me into the
group whenever can join them,
he explained. ''They have played
one of my marches. maybe because
they like it or maybe because they
like me"
