The three young ladies from the Northwest placed in the top ten finalists: they were Mary Alice Moon, Puyallup, WA, Lynn Lee Hall, Provo, Utah and Lyda Dreamis Scott, Warm Springs, Oregon. It was again an honor to be affil iated with the American Indian Heritage Week of Events, as a National pageant assistant Direc tor. I would have to report that it was great to have more Warm Springs people in attendance to help encourage and support this great program for Indian people. Thanks to Gabriel Sohappy, Jr. Hostess, Pat Smith, and Anita Davis who were provided airfare only from the Johnson O'Malley com mittee and Debbie Smith and Direlle Calica who attended through per sonal expense. Lyda Scott was a lovdy repre sentative from Warm Springs and presented herself well. She will also be presenting an overview program to the Junior and Senior high school to encourage them to participate in Warm Springs Elementarj' celebrated "fitness." Our Wellness team lead ers planned a week of activities for students and staff which gave eve rybody many opportunities to exer cise and talk about how to achieve wellness in our lives. The week began with a school-wide assembly and balloon launch to advertise the "Great American Smoke-Out."The next day, students created and per formed cheers during lunch time to promote fitness. On Wednesday a one-mile fun run was held at noon for students, staff and community members. Thursday gave students in the fifth grade an oppor tunity to test the staffs fitness. They challenged the staff to a soccer game on the front field. Throughout the week, classrooms created posters and murals about fitness concepts to hang in the hall. Classrooms kept track of fitness minutes in hopes of winning the "Class Fitness Contest." Winners of this contest will receive wellness snacks, donated by Macy Market. Also, teachers had an opportunity to participate in some aerobics classes, taught by Eva Monteeand Jane Fonda. A big thank you goes to Dawn Smith and Vicki Moore for planning a week of activities for everyone.

Influenza (flu) is a viral infection which has a deadly children's dis ease associated with it. The disease, Reyes Syndrome, affects children from infancy to late teens. It can develop 3-5 days after the onset of Chicken Pox. a cold or other lever causing illnesses. It affects the liver and brain, is non-contagious and is often misdiagnosed as cncephalit its, meningitis, diabetes, poisoning, drug overdose, or sudden infant death. Recent studies have show n a link between the use of aspirin and the development of Reye's Symdrome. Watch for these symptoms alter a viral infection has seemingly run it's course: continuous vomiting; drowsiness (excessive sleeping): deli rium, convulsions or loss of con sciousness; com bat iveness( striking out at those trying to help); lis tlcssncss (loss of pep and energv); pcrsonalin change) irritability, slur red speech, sensitivity to touch); disorientation (unable to identify whereabouts, family members, or answer questions).

Classroom Newsbits This year the WSE Christmas tree in the gym will be decorated with pairs of new mittens. The children will bring mittens from home to donate to the triee. After Christmas, mittens will be distrib uted, as needed, to children whose families have difficulty affording such necessities for their children.

This will mean that their classes will exchange letters, videos, pro jects, etc. with classes from our school. The view gives us a brief look at a day in the life of Otsego students. We have also sent them a video of WSE, including film taken at our fall Powwow. Harry Phillips' fifth grade class has been doing a lot of work lately on learning to write a good para graph.
