On Patrol by Captain Don Courtney A Tribal member along with a Montana Indian were the latest ar rested in the WS Drug Task Forces' effort on the war against drugs. The latest intelligence led the task force team to the Wolfe Point area where another search warrant was executed that turned up a small amount of packages known as "bindles" which contained a white powdery substance suspected as be ing cocaine. Preliminary field testing of the substance showed that the substance did test positive as cocaine, however results from the crime lab are pending for verification. As trial is pending, the task force continues to urge community mem bers to get actively involved in criminal activity reporting.

From the Captain's Desk For the first quarter of this year, there were 19 breaking & entering cases reported to the police depart ment that resulted in only 5 persons being arrested. With that, remember these helpful hints: 1. ) If you are planning to go on vacation, don't discuss your plans out in the public, you never know who might overhear your plans. 2. ) Make arrangements for some one to either keep an eye on your property & house, or you might want to have someone stay there while you are away. In any event, make plans to have things done in & around your home while you are away. 3. ) Check all your locks on win dows & doors, make sure they are working properly. I went to a call at 'this business where a break-in was -i Mir V reported and it was discovered that the window locks had been broken for quite some time before the break in. Cooperate with the officers if they stop by...again we are here to help you remain safe.

Love, your dad, Washumps Lucinda takes To the editor, A farewell wellness salute to all the people that took the challenge of changing their lifestyles to the better. I have seen many people take that step in bettering their health and wellness in the twelve years that I have been in the WcllncssRccrcation department. As of April 24. 1 will no longer be employed as the Wellness Recreation person, I will be trans ferring to Kah-Nec-Ta in Andy Lucas s old position. I regretted very much making the change because my First thought was of all the people that relied upon me to lead the exer cises and just supporting them in their Wellness walk. I thoroughly enjoyed and believed in my job as a Wellness Health Pro moter. I felt that I was a good role model and example to the people, I walked my talk. I believe that if I could better my health, then you could also, it is never too late to change your lifestyle to the better. Physically I was fit in my body, Mentally I was stressed out, where it was effecting my work. I believe that all supervisors, directors, managers take a good close look and listen with miles were covered by WSPD. What makes this event different from other runs, is that this run is without the pressure of competition. You run the amount of miles you want at your own speed. This run and the dollars donated are for the benefit of the special athletes in Central Oregon. The event for the Central Oregon Law Enforcement Runners ended at the steps of the Capital Building in Salem. Our torch joined the Portland area torch flown in by Life Flight where McGruff the Crime Dog handed off to the various other agencies ready to complete the run to Eugene for the opening ceremonies. Special thanks goes out to those who contributed and sponsored the WS police officer runners (families), the officers, the co-workers, and es pecially to the GM Public Safety Branch Jeff Sanders who continues to support the officers efforts toward physical fitness and a healthier community. According to Captain Courtney, plans have already been made to be gin the annual event here in Warm Springs next year.

The tribes are loos ing some good people because of not enough support or faith in their em ployees. I can honestly say that I was a good employee and dedicated to my role as a health promoter. I will also be a good employee for Kah-Nce-Ta. I regret to say that I can't help but get upset when I sec an article any place stating that we plan on being the healthiest Indian community by 2000. 1 could be so blind that I cannot sec anything happening, but when are we going to start, or has it started already? and who? Especially when there was two people in Wellness, then one and now none. I want to encourage everyone to keep exercising, that is the best pre scription that any doctor could give you and it docs not cost a thing. I plan to dedicate myself to keeping healthy and fit and I want you to do the same. Especially the people that looked to me for extra support, you know who you are, keep on trying and don't give up. I love you all Lucinda causing problems in the area. As a safety factor, please refrain from the use of alcohol in this area.

Callca from, Annie and Sarah Wildfire-Continued from page 2 successful fire suppression program was allowing natural fuels to accu mulate well beyond traditional amounts. The reason this was oc curring was due to the absence of fire. Our dry climate inhibits de composition of woody debris and plant material by bacteria, conse quently fire becomes the major de composing agent. By reintroducing fire under prescribed conditions we can reduce this fuel accumulation to acceptable levels. Other benefits include increased browse with higher protein content for wildlife, rejuvenate grazing op portunities for cattle, increase short term site productivity by releasing bound nutrients for plant growth and creating a less fire prone environ ment. Fire has also been recognized as a major control factor checking or reducing insect and disease popula tions.

The resource ben efits of this burning is abundantly clear. We can reintroduce fire and provide favorable changes, biologi cally and socially. There is an in creasing need to reduce the threat of catastrophic fire due to natural fuel accumulations as we continue to in vest in our forest and range resources and build homes in these fuel types. Our immediate goals is to annually treat 2,000 acres over the reservation. This program is conceptual and will be developed through this new management period governed by the Integrated Resource Management Plan. Currently a large area in the vi cinity of Quartz Butte, Simnasho Butte and Laughlin Hills is being studied to provide management di rection for the reintroduction of fire. An interdisciplinary team from For estry and Natural Resources have sketched a framework for this project to follow. Tribal members wishing to make a commitment to help de velop a ten year plan are encouraged to become a part of this team. Our intentions are to provide Tribal members information and opportu nity to help guide this process.
