Wa:k Newsletter. [Tucson, San Xavier District of the Papago Tribe of Arizona.] A newsletter intended for residents and members of the San Xavier Reservation, it began monthly publication at least as early as September, 1982, and was still being published in April, 2004. After adoption of the new constitution by enrolled tribal members in 1986, the publisher became the San Xavier District of the Tohono O=odham Nation. Beginning with a supplement in February, 1990, the publication occasionally bore the title Wa:k News through December, 1993 rather than Wa:k Newsletter, although it remained the same monthly publication. In January, 1996, volume numbers and issue numbers began with Volume 1, no. 1. Issues previous to that were unnumbered.

    1966             AAdaptation of Papago workers to off-reservation occupations.@ Ph.D. dissertation, The University of Arizona, Tucson. Illus., bibl. 437 pp. [ACase studies of five Papago Indian laborers are used in this investigation as a way of demonstrating how social roles are perceived and enacted in four different kinds of occupational environments. These environments or complexes constitute environments of adaptation in which Papagos are accommodating culturally learned roles to the roles demanded by their involvements with Anglos and within Anglo institutions.@]

Urbana, University of Illinois. [This is about an early twentieth century religious movement among Papagos spawned by the AProphet Dowie,@ a Protestant evangelist who sent a Negro preacher to villages in the vicinity of San Miguel. A group of thirty or forty Papagos, converts to the movement, moved to the Cobabi Mountains to await the end of the world. Waddell suggests reasons for the phenomenon.]

Lexington, Kentucky, Society for Applied Anthropology.

    1975             For individual power and social credit: the use of alcohol among Tucson Papagos. Human Organization, Vol. 34, no. 1 (Spring), pp. 9-15. Washington, D.C., Society for Applied Anthropology. [ATwo fundamental dimensions of Papago Indian social or cultural reality are related to current drinking experiences of Papagos in the urban setting. Drinking serves both to maintain a system of social credit and egalitarian economics and to provide a means whereby individuals can attain personal power in an otherwise egalitarian social system. While heavy drinking is physiologically debilitating, it does help to articulate meaningful Papago values at a time when and in contexts where drastic changes are occurring in Papago life. The implication these patterns have for an applied anthropologist focusing on alcohol problems are discussed.@]

Those people have no running water and have to depend upon rain to make their crops. I took them a lot of farming implements sent me by the Government my Interpreter is an American.

They plucked the fruit from the cacti with long poles and made it into jelly, then brought it back to their villages, moving south along Avra (Altar) Valley to the Poso Verde Indian village, where they would wait until fall before starting their yearly circuit again - to Magdalena, to Tucson, and back again to Poso Verde@ (p. 31).

The Nation has recently switched from open dumping and burning of waste to collection in dumpsters and transportation to regulated landfills. The study indicated that members of the Nation produce approximately one-third of the average amount of municipal solid waste produced per person per day in the United States. Far fewer hazardous materials and yard trimmings are found in the waste stream than in the U.S. average. Source reduction options are limited because much of the residential waste comes from packaging materials. Recycling opportunities exist but are hampered by the long distance to markets, which forces the Nation to look at innovative ways of utilizing materials on site. An education program focusing on the traditional O=odham lifestyle has been implemented to help reduce solid waste generation while improving people=s health and the environment.@]

This Mission had a wall around it, inside of the wall was about four acres. The main building and the tower had caved in, but there remained one low wing, which was alright, that was there where the two men lived. They had a small bunch of goats and a large garden. The old ruins were grown over with fine grapes. They lived on dried grapes and goat meat and their clothing was goat skin. There was a fine spring of water inside of the wall and run under the wall to the outside where we camped. The wall was ten feet high and had but one small door, and the two men had big rocks to fit the door and we could not get in by the door, so we cut a small tree and leaned it against the wall. I got on the wall and called to them but they would not come near me, at last one of them called out in German >get away from there=, then I told them I was a German and a friend. They could not understand anything but the German language. After I spoke to them in German they came and opened the door for us. We stayed with them for two days. ...@ What he says the Germans told them about themselves is not credible, and most is probably a figment of Wurzbach=s imagination or a product of poor recollection.

                             Subsequently, Wurzbach and his companions got to Athe old Mission Collibaos (Calabazas), but the Government had established a Fort there, Fort Buchanan. ... The next Mission was St. Lossos (San Lazaro?). ... From there we went to Santa Cruz@ (pp.21-22).].
