Herbert Welsh of LAnse, known to thousands in Michigan as Chief will once again represent the Upper Peninsula Tourist Association on a tour through the mid-west during the next several months. Chief as he is affectionately known locally, meets many hundreds of tourists each summer at a tepee located on US-41 between Baraga and LAnse. "Chief" being a grandson of the famous Sitting Bull, is an interesting person and his stories of Indian customs and traditions make him a special attraction for tourists.
