Men women and children alike Presented all the action, it was -tough on the judges to pick a winner from such a talented group of dancers. It was so close that the toss of a coin would have been the most simple way to determine or pick the winner Oregon Governor Victor Atiyeh made his second annual appearance at Pi-Ume-Sha this year. He participated in the friendship dance and a mutualfriendly attitude was apparent. Seepages 6 and 7 for more o f Pi-Ume-Sha and the Governor’s activities.

The program runs from June 28 to September 6. On a local basis, the Central O regon F ire P re v e n tio n Cooperative is sponsoring and coordinating this kick-off to the central Oregon summer- fire-prevention camnaien. T he p u rp o s e o f F ire Awareness Time is to alert the public to wildland and rural fire prevention measures being initiated . The P revention Coop, up to this point, has encouraged homeowners to clean-up and dispose of, by burning or whatever other techniques, debris and dead v e g e ta tio n a r o u n d th e ir buildings. From this point on, however, we are urging people to h au l this material to a dump - < or “pile now and burn later” after fire season restrictions have been lifted. Central Oregon residents are also urged to pay special attention to any activity that might result in a wildfire: avoid operating vehicles in the tall grass; limit smoking to safe places and made an extra effort to properly extinguise smoking materials. Children playing with matches is an ever present problem for all fire service agencies. The Central Oregon Fire P r e v e n tio n C o o p e r a tiv e encourges all local residents and visitors to central Oregon to be aware of their activities that could start fires, be informed about local fire restrictions. Pass the word to encourage everyone to use proper safety practices in dealing with fire and help prevent a wildfire. < W eup « W Saturday morning drew a good turnout of participants for the street parade starting at 10 a.m. from the grade school grounds and ending at the d a n cin g a re n a near the Community Center.
