Second series of
parenting sessions offered
Legislators passed the 65 MPH
here in Oregon, but it won't
become effective until 90 days
after it was passed. Whats the
big deal? All the time this issue
was in debate, some legislators
wanted to retain the 55 mph,
why? Unless it is just a vote get
ter for these legislators. Now
the 65 mph will soon become
effective what good will it do
the people in the central part of
the state? Or, are we still the
people of no-where land? Why
don't these legislators drive 55
mph around some of these areas
where a person never meets
another car for miles and miles.
Some legislators say that increas
ing the speed limit would cause
more traffic deaths. No matter
what the speed limit is there are those wreckless people who will
kill themselves anyway, whether it be 55 or 85 mph or whatever.
At the present time what is the speed limit between Portland and
Salem? Between Salem and Eugene? Even now, if a person drives
55 mph between Portland and Salem he is a road hazzard and
holding up traffic. Everyone else is going 70 mph plus, perhaps
trying to get to the Capitol Building for the next session to pass the
bill to raise the speed limit to 65 mph on inter-state freeways. They
say the State Police Force is so low that they cannot patrol all the
highways in Oregon. It's because they are posted out in rural areas
of Oregon seeing that the Cowboys and Indians are not breaking
the speed limit.

Centerreduces purchases
Dear Tribal Members,
We appreciate the business you
have given us, and we trust you will
understand that we cannot be of
service in buying articles of large
dollar amounts from you at this
particular time. For reasons we
have a large inventory of articles
we would like to see move; another
being our fund situtation, we are in
need of building our revenue. We
will not completely quit buying,
but we are going to limit our pur
chased to $25.00, or less, per article.
Of course we are sorry to have to
turn down your reauest. depending

on dollar amounts, but we do look
forward to serving you in the future
months.
A lost sale leaves us with an
empty feeling, but, as you know
from the circumstances, we are
very limited at this time. The near
future may look more promising,
once our revenue is built up to
where we can purchase more.
Another alternative, we hope that
would help is putting your arti

Letter to the People,
"The Rat Pac,Mt-ball team, orig
inated five years ago. They were
the rejects after the coaches fin
ished with the draft and all of the
"so-called bigger and better" play
ers had been selected.
The coaches had left 19 heart
broken kids standing with their
heads hanging in rejection. So, I
asked them if they wanted to play
ball. They all became excited and
gave one answer, yes. I told them
the name of their team was "The
Rat-Pac."
In the beginning we were not
even put on the league schedule,
but thanks to some of the t-ball
coaches, they managed to squeeze
our team into their practice sche-
dule. The kids were young but
enthusiastic. They were willing to
learn and they caught on to the
game quickly. The team ended the
season with a record of 4-4, which
was just the beginning for The Rat
Pac.
It was a just matter of patience
and taking the time to teach and
coach the players about the game
and discipline. The team is now
noted as power in the t-ball league.
It gives the players something to
have pride in. The past records give
the full story; 1983-4 wins 4 losses;
1984-8 wins 1 loss; 1985-9 wins 0
losses; 1986-8 wins 1 loss; and this
year 1987-9 wins 1 loss. The players
are at a age which makes them
want to learn and they are fantastic
to work with.
In my books, there is no such
thing as a dumb or stupid player.
Some are a little slower then others
in catching on or they are not inter
ested in the game at the time. Some
kids have other interests at the
time. Kids from five to eight years
old are willing and ready to learn
but it is often up to the coaches and
parents' to assist them in teaching
the kids and to help them with
what ever weaknesses they have.
My coaching rules are simple
and the parents and players are
informed before the season sche
dule starts.
Rule 1 Monday through Thurs
day the players are mine to coach
and teach the game. (Friday through
Sunday they belong to mom and
dad).
Rule 2. Discipline, at practice,
games, home and school, I inform
the players I need them to attend
all practices and games, not at
