A photograph of attendees wearing redface while in line for a buffet at a Pacific University alumni dinner, held between 1957-1959. There were at least two alumni dinners held during this time period, which were advertised under the title, "Pow-wow Dinner." The event did not actually include Native Americans. From photographs, it appears to have included: white performers dressed in wigs, makeup and costumes; performing a fake "pow-wow" dance; university officials wearing Native-style chieftain headdresses; attendees being given headbands with feathers to wear (visible on the left in this image); and decorations mimicking a forest setting. This took place in Pacific University's Old Gymnasium. The photographer, Herb Drew, was a student at Pacific who took photographs for the student newspaper.
