Northwood's rebounding

way in the period, it was all
over for the Indians. Hauff,

Blair took an early lead in the
first moments of the contest
against Walter Johnson. The
Green moved ahead 1913 with
a classy 43 shooting percentage
in the first quarter, then went
into orbit in the second period
by hitting on II of 81 shots to
run up a 1925 halftime score.
Shortly before halftime WI led
by 10 points as the Wendtless
Blair defense was eventually
rocked for IA points-highest in
several years against Blair.
WI, just fresh from its big

users which finally resulted in
the placing of armed guards
around the area to prevent in
reference while the dam was
completed.
The project has been highly
successful and there are now
500 homesiteS leased in the area.
In addition, a rental boat dock,
general store, service station,
campsiteS, and other needed ia
cilities are in operation.
A large lodge, restaurant,
cocktail lounge, a golf course,
a ski run and winter sports area
and other commercial facilities
will complete this complex with
in the next five years if plans
progress on schedule.
The sale of fishing permits
and a few hunting permits was
the only source of income prior
to 1857. This income is still an
important bread and butter item
but the greatest gains have been
made in the operation of the
various ficilities. Total sales
figures increased from $4,000
in 1858 to $85O,OOO in 1861. A
comfortable net profit has been
earned each year since 1857.
The forecast for 1862 projects
an anticipated income of almost
$1,OOO,00O.
The Enterprise now provides
employment for some so per-
sons on a permanent basis. This
force is increased to LOT during
the peak of the summer season.
We have emphasized our
training programs and now
have many tribal members in
responsible and highly skilled
positions. Ten to twenty percent
of our employees are presently
recruited from off the reserva-
ton when local skillS are not
available, however our ultimate
goal is to fill all Enterprise
positions with qualified Apache
employees.

First of Three-Part Series
On Recreation EnterpriSe)

The White Mountain Recrea-
ton Enterprise has completed
its seventh successful year of
operation with the close of the
1861 fiscal period and is now
established as an important part
of the White Mountain Apache
Tribes business operations.
The story of its formation
and early development is per-
haps unique because it came
about several years before SER
ious thought or effort was aimed
at the development of tourist
and recreation facilities on In
dian Reservations to cater to
the growing army of recreation
seekers which took to the ma
tons highways and by-WayS
after World War II.
The $500 square mile Fort
Apache Reservation, was con-
sidered somewhat remote and
isolated until surfaced roads
began to reach into the area in
the 1940S.
Only a few of the 1000 tribal
members owned vehicles and
little contact was made with
outsiders" with the exception
of Bureau employees, traders
and the few travellers who trav-
eled the primitive roads into
the m ore remote parts of the
reservation.
For many years the tremen-
dously beautiful scenery, the
hundreds of miles of high quail
ity trout streams, the small but
beautiful natural lakes, the ruins
and historical wealth of the
reservation had more or less
been taken for granted by those
living in or near the area.
The tribal economy was based
almost entirely on livestock op-
erations and the harvest and
sale of timber The bountiful
wildlife crop was harvested by
tribal members with little
thought being given to seasons,
bag limits or controls.
A number of individuals de-
serve credit for the early rec
ognition of the tremendous pO-
tential inherent in the develop
ment' of the Tribes scenic and
recreation resources and it
would not have been successful
without the cooperation and as
sistance of many dedicated
people.
However, the late ST Davis is
without question the one whose
untiring effort provided the
spark and the push to bring it
into being.
Employed in the BIA For
estry Branch in the 1930S. he
covered the length and breadth
of the reservation and the plan
for the developments o: vast
recreation complex to be oper-
ated by, and for, the benefit of
the White Mountain ApacheS
began to take shape in his mind.
He never lost an opportunity
to point out the possibilities and
to enlist the aid of tribal lead
ers, Bureau personnel or others.
The idea of throwing the res
ervation open to hordes of fish
ermen. campers and tourists was
entirely foreign to mCst tribal
members and actively opposed
by many of them The most diff
ficult task was to overcome this
opposition and convince them
that these invaders could be
controlled, that the Indians
rights could be protected and
that a Recreation Enterprise
could be prOfitably operated by
the Tribe to provide much need

ed income and employment Op-
pOrtunitieS.
The Tribe was fortunate in
having progressive and farsight-
ed leaders on its Council and in
positions of authority in the
Bureau. The Plan of Operations
for the White Mountain Recre-
alton Enterprise was finally
adopted in late 1854.
Management responsibilities
and authorities are clearly de-
fined in the Plan of Operations
and are vested in a General
Manager under contract to the
Tribal Council.
The Manager is directly re-
sponsible to a Board of Direc-
tors appointed by the Council.
Within the framework of the
policies set by the Board, he
has full authority to select or
discharge employees as needed
and not once has there ever
been a problem of political in
reference by the Council or
individual members.
With the excellent trout fish
ing opportunities available on
the reservation, this was natur-
ally the hub from which the
developments were to grow.
Tribal investment funds were
limited and the initial expendi-
lures and efforts were devoted
to the construction of attractive
campgrounds, access roads and
trails, hundreds of directional
and international signs and to
promotiOnal activities.
We might inject at this point
the fact that the Bureau of
Sport Fisheries and Wildlife has
been one of our most able arms
and the tribe is deeply indebted
to them for the valuable assist
ance given throughout this en-
tire project.
Our waters are all stocked
from Federal Hatcheries and
managed by specialists from
the Branch of Fisheries Man
agement. The State of Arizona
does not participate in our fish
cries program even though we
do require fishermen to have a
valid state fishing license as a
prerequisite to the purchase of
a tribal permit.
If the primary goals of realiz-
ing adequate net profits and
providing employment for tribal
members were to be realized,
the tribe had to provide goods
and services to the increasing
number of visitors. These goods
and services had to meet quality
standards and be within a price
range to compete successfully
with tourist facilities in the sur
rounding communities.
The first motel, service sta
ton and tackle store, called
Hon-Dah, was completed and
opened in 1857. 1t was stated
with an experienced manager
and all-Indian employees. They
then added rental cabins, boats,
a tackle store and small grocery
store to our facility at Tonic
Lake.
Since that time, the operation
has been expanded to include
another motel, a trailer park, a
general store and garage, three
new service stations, five liquor
stores, a wholesale Christmas
Tree harvest operation and a
variety of miscellaneous pro-
jects.
The most ambitious project to
date has been the development
of a recreation complex at Haw-
ley Lake in the Smith Park
