Entertainer Sophie Tucker Becomes Member Of The Mohawk Tribe

Entertainer Sophie Tucker, called the last of the "Red Hot Mamas," was adopted by the Mohawk Tribe in Canada and given the name Ga-Je-Ja-Kwuks which means "Sister of the Flowers". Instead of sitting with the Squaws she joined the Braves in a stomp dance wearing tribal regalia. "She is one noisy Squaw", one Brave said.
