Spilyay Tymoo Page 4 October 9,1981 Spilyay Tyi Editorial E Coosh EEWA: (The way it is) Community Meeting, Oct. 14 CRITFC preliminary fall season summary Portland—The 1981 treaty harvest of fall Chinook was approximately 45,800. This is- about 12,000 more than last year’s catch. The 1981 harvest figure is only slightly more than this year’s tribal allocation under the terms of the five-year agreement. (With a 1981 expected run size of approximately 160,000 fall chinook, the harvestable portion is about 60,000. And under the five-year agreement, the tribes’ share is 60% of the harvestable run, this year about 40,000.) The 1981 tribal harvest. therefore, does not make up the 25,200 chinook deficit owed the tribes under the five-year agreement. While this year’s Bonneville count is greater than last year’s reflecting a larger number of tule fall chinook (early- maturing chinook produced mainly in hatcheries in the Bonneville pool area), the Dalles and McNary dam counts show that the bright fall chinook run (brights are late- maturing chinook produced mainly above McNary Dam) is smaller than last year’s. This year less than 28,000 bright chinook are expected to escape fishers’ nets, a number lower than last year’s record low escapement. These few remaining chinook are needed to spawn future generations, and, therefore, no more fihsing days could be added to the three fishing period adopted by the tribes nad approved by the cuort. Although the Columbia River Compact authorized lower river fishing to begin the end of September (CRITFC) testified against such a season), the lower river catch of bright fall chinook will be minimal this year because the run is both earlier and smaller. At: Community Center Time: 11:30 a.m. -1:30 p.m. Re: Tribal Reorganization Food: Chili, fried bread, Koolaid (Everybody Welcome) Public meeting The purpose of the meeting is to bring our community people together for the good of our community. We must come together, all of us, to solve issues that might cause us, our Children or our children’s children undue hardships. Nobody is going to watch out for Warm Springs as well as people from Warm Springs. It’s time we realize that this is our land, our people, our wampum, our responsibility to watch out for our children and their future. We can’t allow a few individuals, to intimidate us, put fear and frustrate us, to keep us from positive action. Let’s promote conservative spending of tribal resources.

He left October 1 from Portland. Before leaving Warm Springs Spencer was honored on September 27 with a dinner NAME GIVING— Spencer Keo received the name Pu-tu-na-shut following a dinner in his honor at the Simnasho longhouse. He is currently at boot camp in San Antonio, Texas at Lackland Air Force Base. Spilyay Tymoo photo by Shewczyk Force at the Simnasho Longhouse. - At that time he was also given his Indian name. The dinner and name-giving ceremony was sponsored by Spencer’s grandmother, Isabelle Keo, and his aunt, Kate Jackson. Speaking to Spencer during the dinner, Caroline Tohet praised his decision to join the Air Force by saying, “It’s a great honor to decide on your own what you are going to do.” She went on to say, “When he comes home he will be happy, he will have done what he wants.” Spencer enlisted in the U.S. Air Force before he graduated from high school last year. Because a diploma is necessary to enlist in the Air Force Spencer had to complete his education. He waited to enter the service until the end of the summer so he could have a little free time. He commented, “I had the summer to goof around.” Prompted by the buddy system, Spencer enlisted with a friend from Tygh Valley, Kenny Myers. The buddy system allows friends to enlist together and train at the same boot camp. After boot camp they go into their chosen fields which means they would probably train at different locations. Open field mechanics is the area in which Spencer wishes to specialize. He would deal with anything mechanical from automobiles to airplanes, he explained. On the day of the dinner in his honor Spencer was not nervous. But he said he would be the day the plane left. Following the dinner Spencer received the name of Isabelle Keo’s father, Pu-tu-na- shut. Spencer’s parents are Levi and Crystal Keo. Proceeds of Labor (IMPL), Individual Indian Money (IIM), and Special Deposit Accounts.
