A Local Meteorologist’s Perspective
Information courtesy of the Bureau of Indian Affairs, U.S. Department of the Interior What started at the turn of the century as an effort to gain a day of recognition for the significant contributions the first Americans made to the establishment and growth of the U.S., has resulted in a whole month being designated for that purpose. One of the very proponents of an American Indian Day was Dr. Arthur C. Parker, a Seneca Indian, who was the director of the Museum of Arts and Science in Rochester, N.Y. He persuaded the Boy Scouts of America to set aside a day for the "First Americans" and for three years they adopted such a day. In 1915, the annual Congress of the American Indian Association meeting in Lawrence, Kans., formally approved a plan concerning American Indian Day. It directed its president, Rev. Sherman Coolidge, an Arapahoe, to call upon the country to observe such a day. Coolidge issued a proclamation on Sept. 28, 1915, which declared the second Saturday of each May as an American Indian Day and contained the first formal appeal for recognition of Indians as citizens. The year before this proclamation was issued, Red Fox James, a Blackfoot Indian, rode horseback from state to state seeking approval for a day to honor Indians. On December 14, 1915, he presented the endorsements of 24 state governments at the White House. There is no record, however, of such a national day being continued on page 5

Apple Growers Show Off Late Harvest
The Julian Apple Growers Association held their second apple tasting of the season on Friday (10/30) at the town hall. Teak Nichols and David Lewis shared the bounty with about 25 other growers and visitors who showed an interest. With over 240 variates of fruit grown in the area, 15 of which were available for sampling, the differences of taste and texture made for some interesting discussions on which would make the best pie, cider or table apples and it seemed everyone had their own favorite. The high light of the evening was the auctioning off, for the benefit of the Association, the original Joe Garcia water color that was used for their fund raising poster. The auction was an event to itself with some participating by

No Treats On The Gridiron
by H. “Buddy” Seifert
I wish I could say that my dog ate my notes about Friday’s game in San Pasqual, but I don’t have a dog. The San Pasqual Academy Dragons won the coin toss at the beginning of the game, but elected to receive the kickoff at the opening of the second half. The Dragons kicked a squirrelly squib kick into the middle of the Eagles receivers and the ball got away from the Eagles and San Pasqual recovered the ball. 1st down Dragons at the Julian 38. Dragons QB Elijah P. took the first Dragon’s snap and picked up 3 yards. On 2nd down, Dragons WR/RB Denzel W. used his speed and picked up another 8 yards and a Dragons 1st down. He added another 2 yards to the Eagles 20 after the Eagles were flagged for being offside's. Taariq M. stepped in and picked up another 2 yards. The Dragons worked their way towards the Eagles goal line. Elijah finished off the drive with a 5 yard burst over the goal line. The Dragons extra point kick wasn’t. 8:06 left in the 1st quarter, Julian 0, San Pasqual 6. The Dragons attempted another onsides kick, but Frosh HB/CB Teddy Krieger fell on the ball and tucked it away. Eagles ball on their own 38. Daniel Streamer took QB Shane Cranfield’s first hand off of the afternoon and was swarmed over at the line of scrimmage for no gain. Shane and Daniel connected for a 15 yard pass and run and an Eagles first down at San Pasqual’s 47. The was a passel of yellow flags on both teams and the series came down to a 4th and 2 yards and the Eagles could only manage 1. The ball went over to the Dragons at their own 38. Taariq M. was caught by the Eagles linebacking corps for a 1 yard loss. Denzel W. picked up 12 yards and a Dragon’s 1st down. The Dragons’ Eugene P lit the afterburners and flew 51 yards for the second San Pasqual score of the afternoon. Again, the Dragons extra point attempt was no good. 3:59 left in the 1st, Julian 0, San Pasqual 12 Soph OL/DL Alex Carson fell on the 3rd onsides attempt by San Pasqual at mid-field. Shane’s pass to Will Hatch fell incomplete on 1st down. Will was stopped behind the line of scrimmage for a 1 yard loss on 2nd down. Shane lofted a perfect pass about 25 yards downfield, but a wide open Gage Baay couldn’t get it in his hands. Will just got the punt off and the ball went out on the Eagles 49. Elijah P. tried to get around the far end of the Eagles D line, but Soph DE Marshall Marriot stayed home and dropped him for a 6 yard loss. The Dragons failed to connect on 2nd and 3rd down and were forced to punt it away. The ball went out of bounds at the Eagles 26. Shane’s pass to Daniel was good for 13 yards and a Julian 1st down. Daniel picked up another 8 yards behind some solid blocking. Shane tossed a short pass to Will that was good for 6 yards and an Eagles 1st down at the Dragons 45. And the 1st quarter came to an end. At the end of the 1st quarter, Julian 0, San Pasqual 12. The 2nd quarter opened with an incomplete pass. 2nd down was a doozy. Shane took Joey Romano’s snap and lateraled the ball to Daniel who set his feet and tossed a perfect spiral down to continued on page 7
