Dear Son,
September 23rd. you entered
this world to me.
All eight pounds A ounce
you came as fast as can be.
Throughout the years I watched
you grow.
Enjoying watching you learn
everything,
even to sew.
One day I looked and saw not
a boy,
But a young man, who had put
away his favorite toy.
Many times we laughed and loving
memories we've shared.
Just as much tears had fallen as
your soul to me bared.
But one night two years ago you
could no longer go on.
Decided to end it, not thinking of
right or wrong.
The pain, the guilt, sadness and
emptiness we all feel,
Will it ever go away? People say
in time we will heal.
The Lord is good son, and He has
made us strong.
Without Him we would not have
come this far along.
The troubles you had, seemed
more than one can bear,
But the Lord Jesus is always there
to show us He cares.
Tell all our loved ones that are
there with you,
Grandma, grandpa, mom, dad and
the rest of the crew.
That one day we will all be together
and how happy well all be.
When the Lord calls us home, we'll
all join together,
and what a celebration you will see.
Love and miss you son, mom.

To all the people of Warm Springs,
To all the people of Warm
Springs community that assisted
our father Dclbert Frank, Sr. who
has been very ill this past month.
We would like to express our
gratitude to the EMT's and am
bulance crew and most gratefully
to Teeny Miller Moses for being on
the spot at Tribal Administration
Building when dad got ill. To all
Tribal Councilmen, that Dclbert
works with almost daily when he's
not on other business out of town,
all our Tribal Councilmen carry a
great responsibility in our com
munity and we often forget to give
a handshake our thank you to
them. Although ourcouncilmcn all
work hand in hand and as a team,
we often fail to recognize that they
tire in body and mind.
After the many years that we
have shared our father's time with
community, family and friends, in
the great responsibilities he carries
daily, we are very grateful to see
him still walking amongst us,
today.
Dclbert has shared great know
ledge with us, his children, through
his traditional way of life, his spir
itual life, and through his love for
one and all.

Happy (belated) Easter to all!
To the editor,

Correspondence appreciated
To the editor,
I would like to thank all the
people who have written me. Some
people I must say I didn't know. I
have also gotten letters from peo
ple who didn't know me at all but
wanted to show their support.
During this "Crisis" is when I
realized how much your family &
friends really mean to you. I have
done things to make my family
proud of me and I have done things
to make them not so proud of me.
Never once have they left my side.
Mom, thank-you for being there
through good and bad, Nobody
can compare to you.
Jim and I would like to thank the
Support Group for the encourag
ing words they gave us.
Love,
Shawna I. Queahpama-Craig
and James L. Mehlberg, Jr.

fmm start In finish. If White Swan FlAminff
Bulls, had a little more time, they would of
beaten us, we managed a 27-24 victory.
Our second game it took a couple quar
ters before we got started against the La
Push Running Rebels. We managed a 56-28
victory. In the semi's against the Chiloquin
Eagles was a close game, then the team
Anally pulled themselves together in the 4th
quarter, with a 58-32 victory. Chiloquin just
went cold for 3-4 minutes, giving us the
margin.
In the championship game against the
Muckleshoot Bulls. We struggled through
VA quarters before finally pulling together.
They played us real tough both defensively
and offensively. We had to earn our points
from the free throw line. Which might have
made the difference if we didn't hit them.
We were in foul trouble in the first half, and
had me quite worried, because they never let
up on us through the whole game. I had to
use our time outs to settle them down. Like
true veterans they pulled it out with a 77-52
victory, giving them the championship.
Our roster consisted of: Manager-Little-fawn
Suppah, Players-Lil Bull Owl. Sup
pah, T.J. Folu, Dave Blodgett, Travis
Starr. Ryan Swearingen, Scott Riddle,
Willis Anderson, and Newton Skunkcap. I
am very proud of them and love them very
much, for they worked hard together as a
team.
The kids have been playing a very suc
cessful season, to far. We don't win them
all. but we have fun trying. Building a name
for themselves, makes it tougher for us, as
we enter these young tournaments. Being
rated 1 makes it tough both mentally and
physically on the players, having to be ready
for every game. ..
It's sure tough on me too. Thank Uod lor
the parents and the support it makes my job
a lot easier, and to the sponsors, who make
it possible for the kids to participate. To
keep them interested and involved is tough
to they can remain off the streets.
Hello people of support group,
This letter is for you all, Thanks
for the signed card. Some of the
signatures I read I knew of you,
some I couldn't, so forgive my
cyphering ability isn't that good.
But it's just great that people
support us, as the media show us.

To the editor,
Hello, my name is Yvonne Wikan
der. I am a NASC Powwow Com
mittee member. As you know
NASC is an acronym that stands
for Native American Student
Council. Besides dealing with is
sues related to students & aca
demia, NASC organizes and pre
sents many special events in the
Seattle area and one of our biggest
is the "Annual University of Wash
ington Powwow."
This year we will be hosting our
20th Annual Powwow celebration
on April 26 through 28 at the
Sandpoint Naval Base here in
Seattle. This will be a commemo
rative effort to celebrate, in part,
two decades of Indians in higher
education and the will of all Native
Peoples to effect their own des
tinies in the greater society.
than nothine. I've been in the Navy
for 2 years, at school mostly, but
now I'm on board the USS Mid
way. It's hard to describe life on a
ship, mainly because of the dif
ferent viewpoints. To me though,
it's the best life can give.
The Midway is very old, but runs
like a new ship. She was born after
WWII, back then she was the
largest aircraft carrier, but today
she's smaller than most. But what's
that saying "Good things come in
small packages?" Would you be
lieve Midway was first to be a
battleship?! It's a fact, I know by all
the rocking to-to-fro from the
ocean waves. No seasickness yet.
USS Midway was also decom
missioned a couple of times, and
lastly she was hurt from that ex
plosion a year back, lost some men
in that. There's probably more
about USS Midway than me,
mainly because the ship doesn't get
into trouble and create messes like
me. If I wrote out all the bad things
I've done here in the Navy It'd be a
big heavy, book. So I'll stop about
my wicked side before Mother gets
miffed.
Well I'd better stop here, so the
letter won't be published as a novel
or something. So here's some part
ing words that I think are fitting.
Sign on with me. The stature of our
homeland is no more than the
measure of ourselves. Our job is to
keep her free. Our will is to keep
the torch of freedom burning for
all. To this solemn purpose we call
on the young, the bra ve, the strong,
and the free. Heed my call. Come
to the sea. Come sail with me.
