A new program has begun in

program is called Tribal

and is administrated by the

It is aimed at reducing tribal

The goal is to create a “tribal

Police Chief attending school
by Pat Leno
As the W arm Springs
reservation has grown into a
large corporation, so have the
responsibilities of being a
police officer in Warm Springs.
To answer the new and ever-
demanding responsibilities, the
Tribal Council came up with a
recommendation for the police
department. The department
has embarked upon a policy of
more and improved education
for the officers.
Jeffery E. Sanders, Sr. who
has been the Chief of Police for
the last seven years, is one who
is headed toward getting more
education. His last day in his
office will be January 11. He
and his wife Cina will be

program in Administration at
the University of Louieville.
Sgt. Ray Çalica will be acting

absence.
Sanders started in 1963 with
the W.S. police as a part-time
policem an w orking as a
patrolm an, dispatcher and
jailer. He went on to being a
patrolman, sergeant, lieutenant
and finally to his present
position of Chief of Police. He
is an enrolled Warm Springs
member.
“The school was chosen
because it is one of the leading
schools of justice administra
tion and compares with the FBI
National Academy,” accord
ing to Sanders. He reflected,
“This is an opportunity for me
to gain and improve the
