MacDonald Hints At Inaugural Naming Plans And Plan Revisions
McDonald said he hopes to name a third or half of the new leadership by January 13. He argued the deferred compensation plan, developed in 1974 and reactivated by Peterson Zah, should be reviewed for changes and consistency with past policy. He noted some appointees may claim tribal pensions but must choose between that and years earned under Zah, and he will review the Antelope Point marina hotel alcohol contract.

Gallup with a 19,500 population saw an unusual spread of crimes in 1986. A March 7 gunfight near El Rancho Hotel left two brothers dead. Frank Zayed Abdelhadi was freed in a self defense ruling. A missing nine year old, Anthonette Cavedito, triggered a long hunt. A local electronics technician Wes Daniels faced child sex charges and pled guilty to multiple counts.
