Spilyay Tymoo PAGE 12 May 29,1981 Miss Warm Springs selected by Sandy Rangila “Just be yourself” was the th e m e o f T ru d e e A nne Clements’ modern talent skit at the Miss W arm Springs pageant May 1. The 19 year-old was selected Miss W arm Springs 1981 that evening at the Agency Longhouse. She is the daughter of Anna and Rudy Clements. “Often people find it difficult to try to be themselves due to peer pressures or because they can’t really find themselves,” she said. “I think each person is different and they have their own talents and skills within themselves.” Trudee said she would like to see each person bring their own particular talents to their top potential. “I hope my skit expressed this idea,” she said in a later interview. Minnie Yahtin, the 1980 Miss Warm Springs, presented her with the beaded crown. Until then, she did not know she had been chosen.

More jury trials being requested To accomodate the recent increased-number of requests for jury trials Tribal Court has found it necessary to schedule as many as three or four trials in one week. As a result, the court has had to utilize ju ry m em bers’ services at a faster rate then originally anticipated. The court appreciates the jurors’ acceptance of this responsib ility and privilege in serving the community. The court is responsible for notifying ju ro is, witnesses, plaintiffs, and defendants at least 20 days prior to the trial date. They will attempt to notify jurors 5 days before a trial has been cancelled or postponed. The Prosecutor and Legal Aide will notify plaintiffs and their witnesses and defendants and their witnesses, respectively, of any changes. In 1980 the Warm Springs Tribal Court prepared a list of 150 eligible jury members to be approved by Tribal Council for jury duty in 1981. Following Council’s approval the court started subpoenaing those people selected to serve as jurors for 1981. The Tribal court adheres to a 7 2 -h o u r n o tic e w h ereb y p la in tif f s , d e fe n d a n ts , prosecution and Legal Aides must formally apply for a “Motion to Postpone” 72 hours prior to the trial date. There will be times when the presiding judge will grant an emergency postponement of a trial within the 72-hour period. Consequently, this does not allow for the court to have adequate time to notify the interested parties, but it is necessary in emergency cases. Tribal Court will be closed to b u sin ess every T h u rsd a y afternoon. Hearings may be scheduled at this time, but fines due on those days can be paid* at the police department. Title IV committee seeks parents to serve Elections for new officers and new parent committee members for Title IV Part A has been postponed until the committee meets in August. Fabian Sutterlee, chairman of the parent committee, said the reason for the elections being delayed is that there was not a quorum at the May 5 meeting. The Title IV, P a rt A committee has been active in sponsoring many programs and assisting in programs for Indian students. The summer school held here in Warm Springs has been one of their projects and will be held again this year. They have paid for tutors to aid students needing help with th e ir h o m e w o rk . T he E n ric h m e n t tr ip s a n d Graduation Dinner are events which this group assisted in putting on. Chairman Sutterlee said the committee is looking for parents willing to put in time at committee meetings and seek community input to serve on the parent committee. The meetings are held once a month on the first Tuesday and are open to the public. No one was able to identify the location of the last geo-quiz.
