Pi-Ume-Sha Powwow
draws crowd
Indian dancers and dance
groups from all parts of the
United States and Canada
came to compete for prize
money here at Warm Springs
during the 13th annual Pi-
Ume-Sha Pow-wow, also to re
new old friendships and make
new ones with all those who
travel miles and miles each year
to perform and compete in
pow-wows throughout the
country.;
This year dancers represen
ted Canada, the midwest,
southwest as well as entries
from all parts of the northwest.
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.

“Goofed” and slipped in a rain
dance song in between contests
because the rains came in
buckets full and on Saturday
night the dancing discontinued
out of doors because of the rain
and later resumed in the
Community Center gym. But
rain or not didn't stop the
determined pow-wow goer’s to
witness the fíne dancing.

For the second year in a row,
Fire Awareness Time has been
coordinated on a two-state
basis by all of the wildland fire
suppression agencies. 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.
