that the commission made the proper decision.
"I was always against tearing that building down," she said. "The settlement was one way we can compensate him properly."
SHONTE'S SAID THAT if any precedent was set, it was that the commission and the staff should be more careful about which buildings needed to be moved or destroyed in the downtown's redesignation.
"We just can't make the decision on the short-term without viewing the long-term effects," she said.
Cooley said that the amount of the award was

'49s' strengthen Indian unity

People mill around the drummers and singers. Some lock elbows and shuffle-step sideways around the performers in the center. Others talk and drink.
There is an informal party atmosphere and the young crowd is restless after the powwow. The older people have gone to bed, but the celebration continues.
This is the scene of a "49" according to Jerry Gray, a recreational specialist at Haskell Indian University.
One site for the 49s is Wells Overlook Park, which is located off Highway 59, south of Lawrence.
BERRYLE BRADLEY, a Douglas County commissioner, has lived across the road from the park for about 20 years. She said she could frequently hear the sound of drums coming from
She said one says that during World War I, a group of 50 Indians from a Wisconsin village enlisted in the war. When the warriors returned after the war, the village threw a party to their home. All had returned but one. The party was named "49" in the missing soldier's honor.
A Haskell student, who asked not to be identified, confirmed Bradley's report. He said the report was "terrible."
park and had 49s. The student, who is from Lawrence, said that 48s have been held at the school.
Although 49s have been around for a long time and happen frequently, no one seems sure of its exact origin.
Martha Kreipe, who is one-quarter
himself, wrote a memoirs about
how the form '48' came to be used.
In the book, she says:
Another theory, according to Kreipe, is that during the Dakotas' rush gold days of the '48ers, Indians wanted to keep white people out of the Dakotas, where gold had been found. The Indians would have dances all night long in hopes of scaring away white people with nold fever.
White people assumed Indians danced only when they were prepared for war. For that reason, whites were afraid to go into the hills. And then, the dances were actually only social dances.
usually participated more in 49s than tribes from the South.

She said that 498 were no longer limited to postpowwow celebrations. They are spontaneous get-togethers that occurred Friday and Saturday nights, weather permitting. She said that 498 are big parties with members of different tribes who do various things.
A Creek-Seminole, the student said she did not want to be identified because she feared her peers would disapprove of her disclosure of some American Indian culture.
For example, she said that tribes from the north seemed to more involve local communities in the South. She said:
"Some are crazy-like," she said. "You generally go there with your snag. A lot of people are singing, but it's all different because there are different words from the different tribes. The Sioux really get into it."
A snag is what certain tribes call a boyfriend or girlfriend, she said.
She also said there was one special song dedicated to war veterans. When it was sung, the crowd was roaring.
The 40% can be more ceremonial at certain times, but they serve as an example of pan-Indianism, in which Indians are not separated by ties, but celebrate as an entire culture, she said.
