The government carved a joint use and fence boundary around Hopi land forcing about 7,000 Navajos and 100 Hopis toward relocation while rights to a vast area are disputed and the final solution remains uncertain.

Oakdale Seeks to Keep Killer Fain Behind Bars
In Oakdale California a 1967 murder case continues to spark a mass petition drive to block Archie Fain from parole. Led by Sally Goehring the effort seeks 100000 signatures to keep him in prison, backed by local officials and the district attorney. The campaign echoes past efforts to extend sentences in similar crimes and raises questions about parole for high profile killers.
