Carol received her diploma from Carla Knapp, the instructor* for completing the basic business program.

Reba Powell and Nancy Jolstead were given recognition for their interests here with the students as they have been involved for the past 12 years with education.

First it was the Supreme Court’s upholding of the Boldt Decision. Then the federal court imposed closures of the off-shore fishery. Not long after, lower river gillnetters were limited to a two-day early fall season. And now, finally, Indian fishermen are fishing—which is all they'wanted to do in the first place. But the way to the river these days is a long and winding road through courts, across negotiation tables and between agencies. Over 350 nets are already in the Columbia River’s Zone VI above Bonneville Dam. Their goal: 87,000 fish. Their time frame: between August 25 and October 2. The upriver Indian fall fishing season set by the Columbia River Compact is an on again—off again affair that goes as follows: Bonneville Pool: August 25- September 4, September 7-11, 14-18, 21-25, 28-October 2. John Day and The Dalles Pools: August 25-31, September 7-10, 14-17, 22-25, 22-25, 29-October 2. (All openings and closings are at noon). According to Doug Dompier, fisheries manager for the Columbia River Intertribal Fish Commission, the season is checkerboarded like this to allow adequate escapement of all parts of the run. “You don’t want to clear off one end of the run,” he noted. The “on” days are for the most part on salmon in the fall chinook run, the compact’s harvest advisory committee subtracted 100,000 for escapement. This leaves 60% or 67,000 for the Indians and 40% or 45,000 for the non Indians. But a tribal shortfall of 20,000 fish in the last two years is to be made up this year, inflating the Indian share to 87,000 and originally cutting the non-Indians to 25,000. However, yesterday the compact approved a 27-day late fall season for fishermen below Bonneville, beginning September 11 with four days in Zone I (below the Willamette River) and continuing September 17 for 23 days in Zones 1-V. This was allowed because of the high initial returns of chinook. “It’s either peaking earlier or it’s a big run,” said CRITFC biologist Alex Heindl. The peak is expected around September 11 or 12. The daily and cumulative counts at Bonneville Dam are impressive. On September 6, 10,017 adults and 1,676 jacks passed the dam for a total to date of 87,346 fish. On the same day last year, 4,831 adults and 1,468 jacks were counted, for a cumulative total of 51,081. The fisheries folks are smiling. Heindl was reluctant to speculate on the reason for this year’s better return. He said he was sure that the off-shore closures have had some impact but it was too soon to say how much. Indians have caught about 10,000 chinook and 2,000 steelhead. Fishing is proceed ing without many incidents, other than one site squabble and the usual lost nets, according to Fish and Wildlife Committeeman Harold Culpus, The next compact hearing on the Indian fishing season will be September 14.
