Hi everyone,

I am looking for a word in Chinook jargon that means "to drum" or refers to
drumming. The only word that I know of is the French sounding onamonapoetic
(sp) "pompom." I can't even find a source for this word's inclusion in
Jargon, however.

I'd appreciate any help possible on an alternate word for "to drum" and the
origins of "pompom."

-Ray
