r Pdge 6 April 6, 2011 Spilydy Tym oo , Wgrm Springs, Oregon Yallup balances school, athletics at Corban Student athlete Karlen Yallup is almost finished with her first year o f college. She attends Corban College in Salem. “I’m liking it more than I thought I would,” she says. Yallup plays basketball, runs cross country and track. It’s a m atter o f time m anagem ent keeping up with classes and ath letics, she says. The athletic competition at college is much more than in high school, she said. “Practice is lon ger, the w orkouts are longer, and there’s more and better competition.” Karlen Yallup She likes Corban, but her career goal— to become an ar chitect—will take her to a dif ferent school next year. She’s planning to transfer to Lake Region State College in North Dakota. She will continue with basket ball, cross country and track at Lake Region. Her plan all along after high school was to go to college close to home for a while and then move elsewhere. Becoming an architect will take some time, Karlen says, as graduate school for architects, after college, is four years. In the field of track, Yallup is training as a heptathlete, in volving seven different events, from running to the javelin and shot-put. Like anything worth doing, she says, “It takes a lot of work and dedication. But if you work hard enough anything is pos sible.” Karlen is a 2010 graduate of Madras High School, where she was an outstanding basketball player. Her parents are Michael and Yvette Leecey.

Here are the results: Manion. “There have been significant strides with air quality control equipment in addressing this concern. People see steam com ing from these projects and pre sume that it is p o llu tan ts,” Manion said. “There are some very strict standards in place to scrub the fly ash that cause the pollution in the process. That material is collected, not dispersed into the air. We don’t want to create more of a problem than we’re trying to solve.” A similar biomass plant is being proposed in K lam ath Falls. (Continued from page 1) The collectors would go out into the woods and collect log ging residuals, slashes and other materials, which are currently being burned. These materials would be fed into a chipper and then transported to the biomass plant. As discussions continue, per mitting is underway. The cul tural, wildlife and fisheries and other environmental staff are looking at the potential impacts. The air quality perm itting process, required in order for the plant to operate, is also un der way, and would be issued through the Environmental Pro tection Agency. Aspects of the biomass pro posal that have generated nega tive comments are increased traffic to and from the landfill, and air quality. “There’s a perception that the biomass plant would create a pol lution problem however,” said I BUY OLD BASKETS Cornhusk Bags, Old Beadwork Navajo Rugs and Related Items 475-6317 Yvonne Iverson photos/Spllyay ; IHpiBB '¿.yij w w Tribal Finance recognized fo r achievements The Confederated Tribes of Warm Springs Finance Depart ment has received the Certifi cate of Achievement for Excel lence in Financial Reporting.
