The Marietta Daily Times, February 22, 1926
Chief William Red Fox of the Sioux tribe of Indians will address many of Marietta's civic Organizations this week, beginning with the Civitan Club which body heard the Chief at today's luncheon at the Wakefield Hotel. The Chamber of Commerce banquet tonight will have the Indian Chief as its guest. The Kiwanis will have him as a guest Tuesday noon The Rotary and Lion clubs will each hear him. Arrangements are being made for special talks to be given at the college and schools of the city.
Between times, Chief Red Fox will appear upon the Hippodrome state for brief demonstrations at the daily performances.
Through the Paramount Pictures officials the Chief was secured to make a few personal appearances in connection with their new picture, "The Vanishing American," written by Zane Grey, who is a personal friend. Red Fox is a life member of the Boy Scouts of America and will probably meet Marietta's scouts at a mass meeting before the week is over.
The picture was filmed in the heart of the Navajo reservation and tells the story of the fast disappearing Indian tribes.
