As a musician, imagine yourself
being on the top charts for the past
thirty years. Well, that's how it is for
The Steve Miller Band. Alot of people
(young and old) including myself
grew up listening to Mevc Miller s
on their 1997 Joker's Ball tour. On
Wednesday, April 2, after arriving in
Portland, band members decided (o
visit Warm Springs for some fun and
relaxation before performing at the
University of Portland Thursday,
top hit songs such as "Jet Airliner," April 3. The day couldn't have been
"Fly Like An Eagle," "The Joker," a better one with temperatures in the
"Take The Money And Run" and high 60's. Band members soaked up
many, many more. some sun rays, soaked their feet in

kicked back and enjoyed themselves.
The Deschutes River near Heath's
place, Kah-Nec-Ta Resort and In
dian Head Casino were three of the
places they visited while in Warm
Springs. They enjoyed their stay so
much, they hope to be back and stay
longcrafter finishing the tourinJune.
Kah-Nce-Ta Resort bar manager
Connie McGuire, had the opportunity
to speak with two of the band mem
bers and asked if they could perform
during the Kah-Nec-Ta Village grand
opening this summer. It's still un
certain of when the Kah-Nee-Ta
Village will open, but it's been
mentioned that the search is on for
some big-name entertainers to per
form. It sounds like a good possibility
for The Steve Miller Band to perform
at Kah-Nce-Ta Resort but yet too
early to say'. The band would have to
speak with their managers and they
would have to make that decision. So
it's still up in the air.
This summer, don't be surprised
to hear that The Steve Miller Band
has returned to the Warm Springs
area whether its to perform songs
like "Swingtown," "Jungle Love,"
"Wild Mountain Honey," or just here
to relax and kick back in beautifu)

In Brief:
A total of nineteen domestic
disputes occurred over the past two
weeks as officers made numerous
arrests when no other resolution could
be made.
Those arrested subjects were
found under the influence of alcohol.
In addition, seven cases resulted in
the arrest of the perpetrator's for
assault and battery on their victims.
In one particular case, a female
victim sustained a fractured arm who
refused police intervention. A report
was still generated on this matter
which should be presented to the
Tribal Prosecutor.
Thirteen arrests were also made
for outstanding warrants as local
members either forgot about their
court appearance's, or failed to
comply with specific court orders or
probationary terms.
Underproperty crimes, there were
two breaking and entering cases
initiated, three theft cases, and three
cases of malicious mischief. Arrests
were also made on some of these
incidents. Those cited are pending
court appearance.
In the area of vehicle related
crimes, four arrests were made for
drunk driving. Two drivers were cited
for reckless driving. Another two
were cited for flee attempting to
elude. And finally, one case of hit
and run is being investigated.
Three separate foot pursuits
resulted in numerous arrests as
officers caught those trying to flee.
One particular call resulted in the
arrest of two of three subjects who
fled a residence in the West Hill
housing district.
On a report that several wanted
persons were at this residence, one
officer made contact at the front door

while another stood by out behind
the residence.
On contact at the front door, three
male subjects were seen running from
the residence. Two arrests were made,
the third subject who was identified
by the pursuing officer, is wanted for
escape from the Juvenile detention
facility.
The homeowner was later arrested
and cited for aiding and abetting and
obstruction of justice.
Hispanic faces a possible two year
prison sentence:
Convicted some time back on a
felony count, a hispanic male now
faces a possible two year sentence as
this same subject was also deported
several months ago by the
Immigration Naturalization Service.
The hispanic was also issued an
exclusion order from the reservation
some time back who also now faces
local charges of possible violation of
this order.
Arrivingback in the Warm Springs
area, this male hispanic was arrested
out of the Kah-nee-ta area who went
then before the Tribal Judge. The
Judge rescinded his original order
for a hearing on this matter to take
place for further determination.
It is unknown whether this subject
will make his next local court
appearance because the hispanic male
was then transported to the Jefferson
County jail.
Arrangements were then pending
for I.N.S. to pick up the subject for
further action.
Dog Clinic Part II:
The next scheduled dog clinic will
be this coming weekend on Saturday,
April 12, 1997 beginning at 1:00 pm
at the Warm Springs Fire & Safety
Department.
Fees for this event is $5.00 for the
vaccinations, and $5.00 for the
license.
Reservation residents will now
have until April 30th to have their
dogs licensed.
May 1, 1997, operation "DOG
ROUND-UP" will begin where all
unlicensed dogs will be rounded up
and dealt with accordingly.
This operation will continue as
long as necessary to make an effort
to deal with the over population of
dogs we have here on the Reservation.
McGruff Speaks:
McGruff here, listen folks, my
good friend "Sparkie" has come up
missing. Has anyone seen her. I'm
sure it had something to do with the
recent dog clinics going on. There is
just something about needles.
On a more serious note, I
understand this month is Alcohol
Awareness Month. "Just say No,"
has been spoken by D. A.R.E Officers
and Law Enforcement Officers
throughout the nation with regards to
educating our younger community
members.
Those members having lived
through alcohol addiction can tell
you today that if they could have
changed things, it would be that they
wished they had not gone through
the experience's of drinking. The
aftermath of such episode's leaves a
lot to be desired.
Life is in fact much better without
having to depend on a liquid called
Alcohol, Beer, Coolers, etc., to escape
reality. Reality will always be there
no matter how long one depends on
alcohol to get them through the day.
Stay safe.

The Porcupine Dancers of Warm Springs were a top hit during the welcome to Oregon Tourism days at
The High Desert Museum on Monday, April 7. A group of about 250 visitors arrived by the bus loads from
a Governors conference held at Sun River. The visitors were greeted at the front entrance of The High
Desert Museum by Museum staff and Warm Springs dancers. The High Desert Museum has put out the
welcome mat with daily events that included The Warm Springs Porcupine Dancers, The Birds Of Prey,
(indoor exhibit) and The River Otters (outdoor exhibit). These are just three events and more are
scheduled during the welcome to Oregon Tourism Days of Central Oregon. The High Desert Museum is
located south of Bend on highway 97.
