FANS GO WILD AT AIRPORT

TRIBAL GREETING FOR SINGER PAT BOONE

By CARL MYATT

Deep in the Brazilian Jungle there exists a war-like Indian tribe whose strange customs and rituals

have set them apart from other such tribes in the region.

Perhaps the most weird of their many, customs, is the manner in which they welcome back a tribal member after a long journey. The men of the tribe, give forth with a sort of warbling wail —which sounds life a half-sob, half-cry..
