Letters to the
Voicing concerns
To the editor,
Complete, Timely, Honest and Friendly
service is very effective customer service for
any business but I question why Tribal
Members cannot receive this from our own
Tribal Council, our own entities, etc.? I will
also question why we cannot implement
new, updated tribal laws to protect our
People? I see that the "Libel" law didn't take
any time to pass! And for this I question,
why is it this tribal law was passed so
quickly, is it because Certain People did not
want to hear the questions thrown at them
or docs the truth really hurt? Or could it
quite possibly be that there is truth to the
rumor that this Tribal Council is spending
our Rainy Day Fund Monies?

Allen Mitchell of the Warm Springs Boxing Club prepared this week for competition scheduled for the evening of June 23
during Pi-Ume-Sha. Mitchell, 22, boxes as a heavyweight and is among several novice boxers In a Warm Springs contingent
that has been working out in the community center since this winter. "It keeps me in shape," Mitchell says. "It's better than
being out messing around and stuff and wasting time."
Basketball team gets second
The Warm Springs Cougars Nation All
Indian boy's basketball team places second at
the 21" Annual All-Indian basketball teen boys
and girls basketball tournament. The tourna
ment was held May 11-13, at Reno, Sparks
Indian Colony recreation program, Nevada.
There were 12 teams in the boys' tournament.
Eventual champions Dresslervillc handed
the Cougars their first defeat; the final score
was 92-49. Coach Austin Greene said "They
must have been tired, because they missed
shots which usually went in and that was the
difference of the game." Aaron Greene led the
Cougars in scoring with 14 points. Floyd
Frank pitched in 10 points. Dresslerville's
Vinnie Rcymus scored a game high 36 points
and teammate Brian Traversie contributed 27
points.
In game two the Cougars faced Yerington,
Nev. The Cougars came away with the win
by the score of 69-54.
Game three the local boys defeated Karuk
Yreka, Cal final with a final score of 80-64.
The last contest Saturday night pitted
Warm Springs against Ukiah, Cal. The Cou
gars won this contest behind Floyd Frank's
22 points. The final score read Cougars 64,
Young Bucks 55.
Sunday morning the cougars played their
first of three games to be played on Sunday
against Peach Springs, Nev. The Cougars pre
vailed 68-59 over the local Reno boys and
moved onto the third place, loser out, game.
In the third place game the cougars sent
Bishop, Cal with the third place hardware as
they won by the score of 90-72. The win put
the Warm Springs club into the championship
and rematch against Dresslerville.
Warm Springs played a much better game
compared to the first meeting against
Dresslerville. The Cougars showed great pa
tience on the offensive end and played good
team defense led by David White, Aaron
Greene on the boards and Kyle Wells. Wells
held Dresslerville's and tournaments MVP

The new non-Indian employee, Mike Van
Meter has recently drove up in our commu
nity and so I question, HOW CAN A NFAV
COMER DETERMINE IF VOICING OF
CONCERNS ARE LIBEL OR MALI
CIOUS?! Is he only going on ORDERS
from his superior or tribal council? Has he
been around long enough to know what's
really going on in our backyard?
In order to build a more positive profes
sional image for the CTW'S newspaper, may
I suggest inserting a page for Tribal Mem
bers Concerns! It's only evident that the
Agency District Tribal Council Reps do not
communicate with their People on a timelv
points; Chasen Walker had 16 and Wells 13 to
lead the attack on offense. Dresslerville had
all the answers and won the contest by the
score of 74-63. Coach Greene stated "For play
ing seven games in two days the boys did a
great job. But I think they just ran out of gas.
They came out sluggish in the first game but
finished strong and played some great basket
ball in the end."

Exhibit Director Natalie Kirk said "I
would like to encourage all tribal artist to
enter the art show next year. There is a spot
waiting for your art work, if you bring your
basis; so how is one suppose to let concerns
come out and be known especially when
only one side of the story is heard! I ques
tion our freedom as being run by dictator
ship rather than sovereign! The Spilyay
Tymoo staff need to be brainstorming on
updated intensive techniques on communi
cating to fit all our Customers! The only
changes I have really seen are different font
usage and the stressing of the new tribal law,
libel. I would like to see new updated com
puter equipment and Xerox machinery so
that our new spapcr can be printed here!
