While there, they were invited to eat with the local Ute Indian people and visit. The Ute Tribal Council donated $500 to the runners in support of the undertaking and individuals gave a total of $227. Dennis Banks of Rapid City, S.D., thanked the Council and the Ute people for their generosity. The purpose of the "longest run" is to bring about the awareness of social problems and to "carry the tobacco to-bacco to San Francisco," Banks said. There will be a special ceremony cere-mony for participants at Candlestick Park where individuals walking from Los Angeles will meet with the runners. Banks stated that coordinators coor-dinators of the run want to let others know that "Indian people are alive." The run began in New York and will end in San Francisco; the runners run-ners will then fly to Japan and continue con-tinue the run there with the blessings bless-ings of the Japanese government. Banks explained who Jim Thorpe was and what he symbolizes to the Indian people. A SacFox Indian from Oklahoma, Thorpe won the Love stamp to go on sale The 1988 edition of the Love Stamp will go on sale at the Vernal Post Office July 5. "The Love Stamp will feature a pink rose with a leafy, dark green background," said Vernal Postmaster John Evan Jones. Almost one billion of the 1988 Love Stamps will be printed to meet anticipated demand. First available on a regular basis in 1982, the Love Stamp has proven to be an enormously popular choice for mailers of valentines, wedding invitations and general correspondence, said the postmaster.

When officials learned that Thorpe had played semi-pro baseball, his medals were taken from him. In 1982, after litigation, the medals were returned to his family. Thorpe was also named the Greatest Athlete in the earlier part of this century. Banks talked of the richness of the Ute people and also concerning the problems faced within Indian communities com-munities throughout the nation. He spoke of the changes and the campaigns cam-paigns against drugs and drunk driving. But he added that Indians need to do more than "just say no to drugs." Vice Chairwoman, Irene Cuch, spoke to the runners and commented comment-ed that "we have a common bond of love." She asked that the runners make the Ute Reservation their official offi-cial slop every four years on their run. Following the speakers, the Chcpcta Lake Singers sang four honor songs. The following morning, the Jim Thorpe runners held a brief ceremony ceremo-ny at Bottle Hollow then set off to San Francisco.
