Complete immunizations required for school
With only four to Ave visits to a
hcalih-care provider, most children
can be protected against eight dis
eases. Parentsguardians need to be
informed about the importance of
immunizations in ensuring a healthy
future for their children. Up-to-date
shots are required by law for children
at child care providers, day cares,
prcschools and schools. Nearly ev
ery place that cares for your child
outside the home requires shots. Shots
are required for two reasons: to pro
tect your child and to protect other
children. Shots prevent diseases that
sometimes kill or permanently hurt
children and adults. Measles, mumps,
rubella, pertussis (whooping cough),
tetanus (lockjaw), diphtheria, polio,
Haemophilus influenza type B (Hib)
and hepatitis B can each be prevented.
When your child is born you usu
ally receive a "parent maintained
record" to keep track of your child's
shots. Keep it. File it. Don't lose it. If
you don't have one you can check
with the IHS clinic or the Jefferson
County Health department and see if
they have one for you. Take this
"record" with you each time your
child visits the doctor and heshe can
update itas immunizations are given.
The record is very important!
Every daycare, preschool, school
needs information about the shots
your child receives. They must keep
a form on file that shows how well
your child is immunized. They must
report once a year to their local health
department. If no immunization
record is on file, your child can be
excluded from hisher program until
a record is provided by the parent
guardian. When you are asked to
complete a "certificate of immuniza
tions status" for your child's day
care, preschool or school you, as
the parentguardian can fill it out
using your "parent maintained
record.
In Warm Springs, the IHS Clinic
has most local children's immuniza
tions on file and would be a good
starting point to fill in your child's
immunizations on your "parent
maintained record." That way, the
next time a "certificate of immuniza
tion status" is needed you can save
time by conveniently filling it out
yourself!
The following list is what most
five-year-old children will need to
get before kindergarten.
Five doses of diphtheriatetanus
vaccines (DT)
Four doses of polio (TOPV)
One dose of measles, mumps and
rubella (MMR) after 12 months of
age (preferably 15 months of age)
Otoe to fourdoscs of Haemophilus
influenza type B (Hib) vaccines. No
doses required if a child is over five
years of age.
Some of the best toys are free!
A Acoustical tile used with colored golf tecs for a peg board
B Blocks made from small cardboard boxes
C Coffee cans made into drums
D Dough made from 2 cups flour, 1 cup salt and water
E . Egg beater used with soap flakes and water
F Findings, such as buttons, beads, feathers, strings, etc.
G Grocery bags make a mask for a special bag or pinata.
II Hats old ones for dress-up.
I Inner tubes for bouncing, sitting in or sledding.
J Jcllo which children can help make.
K Keys (old ones) for make believe play.
L Lotto Matching Game made out of old magazine pictures.
M Macaroni paint or dye it and make pictures or string it for a
necklace.
N Nutshells especially half a walnut shell to make boats, etc.
O Old big boxes which can become a play house, a car, a store, etc.
P Plastic bottles used for pouring water at the sink, squirting outside,
etc.
Q Q-Tips used with toothpicks and other small items to make pictures.
R Ribbons used for pasting, cutting, stringing or just wearing.
S Spoolsusedforstringing.hammcringormakingdollsandfurniture.
T Tin cans to fill with sand, use in grocery store.
U Utensils (from the kitchen) used for measuring, for rhythm instru
ments. V Vinegar used to dye spools or Easter eggs or just egg shells for
pasting.
W Wood scraps for hammering, sawing and building things.
X X-mas cards used for cutting, pasting and making pictures.
Y Yarn for pasting, stringing or sewing
Z Zoo collage made from animal pictures cut from magazines.
As long as you always have some blue, crayons, children's safety scissors
and a little patience, you can supervise your child doing any of the above
activities. Make sure you use appropriate materials for your child's age.
Think safety nothing sharp, nothing small for young ones' mouths and
nothing toxic if swallowed.
BIA requests comments on proposed units
Maty, on his way to Salem Janu
ary 26, was killed instantly in a three
car collision near milepost 76 north
of Warm Springs. The icy road con
ditions played a contributing factor
in the accident as he lost control and
sideswiped a Toyota Camry driven
by Larry Phillips. 62, of Bend. After
sideswiping Phillips, Macy's Nissan
pickup continued down the road
sideways and was struck on the
passenger side by a Ford Explorer
driven by Andrew Matus, Jr., 40,
also of Bend. Malus was air lifted to
Si Charles Medical Center in Bend.
I Ic remained in the hospital's critical
care unit as of February 3. Phillips
sustained minor injuries. Macy was
not wearing a scalbcll at the time of
the accident.

dancer, earning many awards for his
expertise. In 1973 he was named
national champion fancy dancer in
the mid-west. He was familiar with
Wasco dancing and he was often
asked to demonstrate hoop dancing.
In 1981, Macy was named to the
Hoopa Hall of Fame for his support,
goodwill and respect for Hoopa ac
tivities. His interest in basketball
began when he was a young man,
having started playing in northwest
tournaments in 1961. He received
numerous MVP and All-Star awards
during the many years he played ball.
In 1984, Macy assumed owner
ship of the family store. His hobbies
included hiking, rafting and all out
door activities. He also enjoyed
bcadworking, carpentry and had a
deep interest in Indian law and treaties.

the Triple Creek Timber Sale, to
harvest a portion of the 1993-94 an
nual allowable cut, use trim plus to
develop acres and volume, improve
stand vigor and reduce western spruce
budworm impact through commer

proposed sale, located south of Camp
Creek, west of the Mclolius River,
north of Walker Creek and cast of
Bald Peter on the southern portion of

would be scheduled for 1993-94.
There would be several alterna
tives initially considered, including
the Total Trim Plus harvest. These
alternatives were Included in The
Proposed Action"aliernaiivc and the
Total Trim Plus" alternative was
not achievable at this time. The re
mainder of the volume and acres
would be scheduled in seven or eight
years w hen areas are open for harvest.
No Action" alternative would only
salvage insect and fire killed timber
and yield an approx imate limber rev
enue of SI, 750 annually.
The "Proposed Acuon" alterna
tive, Trim plus, would treat ap
proximately 800 acres using regen
eration harvests (SSO) acres) and
commercial thins (250 acres). The
timber revenue to the Tribe would
vicld approximately SI million to
$2.5 million. All identified impacts
to the environment would be miti
gated. The integrated Resources
Management Plan Environmental

cated on the northern portion of the
reservation on the McQuinn Line

The "No Action" alternative wtnild
only salvage insect and fire killed
