Tan-Ru Now Appearing
One of Portland’s most
unique bands, Tan-Ru, which
was organized in 1976, and has
since proven itself one of Port
land’s most unusual bands.
The band consists of Joe
Waldrich who plays the drum’s
and is the leader of the band. Joe
has played steadily in the lounge
and club circuit around the
Portland area since he was 17. In
addition, he has studied with
drummer Mel Brown, toured
with a few well known bands
extending from Canada to Cali
fornia.
Cher Doering plays guitar
and does the bands vocal
arrangements. She has mastered
the vocal styles of rock, country,
blues, jazz and bluegrass. Cher
has toured the Eastern United
States with a nationally recog
nized band.
Mike Roser, bass player and
vocalist, is a native of Arizona.
In the early 60’s Mike moved
with his family to England where
the musical influence of “the
Beatles’’ left a permanent im
pression.
Dan Wardei, lead guitarist
and vocalist who moved west
from Detroit, Michigan and has
since joined Tan-Ru group.
They have a variety of music
spaning from: rock, country,
blues, jazz, which they have
written themselves, a little of
everything for everyone. The
band has appeared on TV a
couple of times in Portland.
Their first appearance here
at Kah-Nee-Ta was May 1st, and
they will remain here until June
30th, with performances 5 nights
a week from 9 p.m. until 2 a.m.
They have in the past ap
peared at the Salishan resort on
the coast and at the Woolen Mill
in Bend, otherwise Portland has
been their main stay.
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.

Madras Education Association

Miller will accept the plaque on
behalf of the staff.

Department adequate restrict
ions on ocean fishing to assure
returns to the Columbia to meet
the allocations for Indian and
non-Indian fishermen on the
river.
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.
