Spilyay Tymoo has been honored recently with a Commu nications Award from the Ore gon Education Association. Spil yay Tymoo was the recipient of one of nine awards given this year by the OEA. In a letter to Editor Sid Miller, OEA President Ted Rom- oser said, “Your paper was honored for continuous coverage of education. Both the amount of space you devote to education and the quality of coverage are exceptional. We applaud you for your efforts.” According to Romoser, the OEA awards are made to those members of the media whose work has increased understand ing of education and educators. The selections are based on writing and reporting excellence, understanding of the subject, comprehensiveness of coverage and fair treatment. A plaque will be presented sometime this month by the Madras Education Association which nominated our paper. Sid Miller will accept the plaque on behalf of the staff.

They further complain that John Donaldson and Gordon Sandison, Oregon and Washing ton state fish directors, respect ively, failed to recommend ade quate restrictions. Donaldson and Sandison are voting mem bers on the council. Even though ocean fishing has been reduced for 1979, the “very best” possible result is a limited fishery in the Columbia for chinook this fall, the suit contends. An Indian commercial har vest of only 55,000 fall Chinook in 1977 “resulted in severe econo mic hardships to Indian fisher men,” the tribes stated. An affidavit of Jean Ed wards, a biologist for the tribes, says that a low count of only 763 two-year-old Chinook past Bonne ville this year points to a poor spring run in 1980. Indians have not had a commercial fishery on spring chinook the last two years, and the 1979 final count may be a record low, according to the suit.
