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.

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.
Hope to see all you people at
the meeting Wednesday
October 14, starting at 11:30
a.m.

Spencer Keo is getting in
shape for a four-year tour of
. duty at Lackland Air Force
Base boot camp in San
Air
Antonio, Texas. 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.

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.
