Local schools help hurricane victims
Jefferson Count)' School Dis
trict 509-J is partnering with the
Oregon Department of Educa
tion and the Oregon National
Guard to collect and deliver
supplies to those students who
have been severely impacted by
J lurricane Katrina.
Operation Backpack is
Oregon's part of the national
effort by the Council of Chief
State School Officers to assist
the victims of Katrina.
509-J superintendent Guy
Fisher and state superintendent
Susan Castillo arc asking stu
dents, teachers and members of
the community to put together
backpacks (and book bags) filled
with pencils, pens, paper and
other school supplies for victims
of the hurricane.
The backpacks can be
dropped off at any 509-J school
or the district's School Support
Building, 445 S.E. Buff Street
in Madras.
The supplies will help stu
dents and teachers get "back to
school" as quickly as possible.
25 years ago this week
from thtScpkmbtrU, 1980
edition of the Spilyay Tymoo.
Armed with great determina
tion to "get the ball rolling," rep
resentatives of the 12 Colum
bia River basin tribes gathered
at Spokane to discuss the possi
bility of a unified water com
mission. All tribal representa
tives agreed that unity is the key
to the commission's success.
"We need a more organized
voice in the Columbia River
basin - we must form this com
mission," said Warm Springs
Tribal Council Chairman
Delbert Frank. "We must use
our sovereign rights together and
unify."
I Ie said, "Whether we want
Carter's water policy or not, no
coalition or commission is go
ing to undo it. You should use
the policy as beneficially as pos
sible within the law." In other
news:
The remaining 600 or so Kla
math Indians received final pay
ment for 135,000 acres of tribal
land that the federal government
condemned in the 1960s. A to
tal of $81 million was divided
among the members with some
individual checks reaching as
high as $170,000.
The Klamaths have received
two previous payments with ex
tensive media coverage each
time. However this time, news
reporters were barred from the
inside of the U.S. National Bank
in Klamath Falls to avoid, what
a bank official termed, "a circus-like
atmosphere." And this
news:
Residents on the south end
of the Warm Springs Reserva
tion can begin placing their or
ders for telephones. The cables
have already been laid and ser
vice will begin soon.
