The bibliography downplays disciplinary boundaries by unifying literature that has previously only offered separate classification and access." "Dine Bibliography" contains more than 6,300 entries, selectively annotated, which cover the Navajo literature of 1969 through 1991, along with few later items. More importantly, the bibliography facilitates access to much of the vast literature on Navajo people that is not easily accessed in contemporary social science databases, Bahr said. "The book reaches beyond the core literature of professional social science to the arts and humanities, law, literature, linguistics, medicine and dentistry. It also includes much of the 'marginal' or 'amateur' literature on the Navajo, from denominational mission publications through the writings of Navajo schoolchildren," Bahr said. to the height restriction would e include unoccupied, structures approved by the Board of Adjustment.

"It grew so fast at first I was told it was 35 acres, and then five minutes later I was called and told it had grown to 1,000 acres," Fernstedt said. FORT Firefighters were expecting today to still be battling a wildfire that broke out Saturday afternoon in the hills north of Cedar Fort. The fire started near an abandoned campfire and grew quickly, Utah County Sheriff's Office Ron spokesman Fernstedt said Saturday around 5 p.m. from a fire command post in northwest Cedar Utah County Fire Marshal Tom Wroe sa'd the fire started in scrub oak and dry grass in an area where it was apparent people had been shooting at bottles and had set a campfire that was not extinguished. "I don't think it was intentional, but it was clearly carelessly set," Wroe said. Valley. The Sheriff's Office was noti their Pioneer Day holiday in the parched, hot hills trying to get an upper hand on the fire. The wildfire was fanned by south winds. A small spotter plane directed two large l planes to several drops of fire retardant on the blaze. Flames could be seen leaping high in the air. Wroe said some cabins are in a canyon to the west of the fire and firefighters were working make sure that route was cut off to the fire. The fire marshal also said twin-engin- e low-leve- there was a group of horseback riders somewhere in the canyon, but they were believed to be safe. The possibility of a wind shift Saturday evening with the ability to possibly redirect the wildfire also traveling con- cerned Wroe as of press time. Such a shift would send the fire south toward the community of Cedar Fort. Fernstedt said several communities rallied to fight the wildfire, with firefighters and equipment from Utah County, Lehi, Eagle Mountain, the U.S. Forest Service and Cedar Fort.

Borman, now 70, hasn't quit flying. In between practice stunts for Saturday's air show in Parowan, he assessed the 1969 race for the moon against the Soviet Union. "It was a battle of the Cold War.

"The one we won decisively was space." After retiring as an astronaut, Borman went on to run Eastern Airlines. He now owns an auto dealership in Las Cruces, 220 miles south of Albuquerque, and stays fit and trim by working out three times a week. At 163 pounds, he weighs less than when he spent six days traveling to the moon and back in December 1968. "One of the two most notable moments of that flight was looking back at Earth on Christmas Eve," Borman said. "Earth was the only color in the sky. The other notable moment was getting out onto the deck of the aircraft carrier after we landed and beat the Russians." n Borman's flight paved the way for Armstrong and Aldrin to make the first moon landing July 20, 1969. Borman still enough of flying. can't get "Flying is a dread disease," he said after jumping out of the cockpit of a plane at the Parowan airport. "There is no cure."
