Navajo Tribe approves contracts for three MacDonald associates
Three associates of Navajo Tribal Chairman Peter MacDonald received contracts from the tribe, approved by the chair man's office but not the Budget and Finance Committee. The deals total under 50,000 dollars, with one contract jointly held by Tome and Lancer. Vlassis and others say the move is being politicized by supporters of former Chairman Zach.

Fossil Hunt Near Farmington Reveals Dinosaurs in New Mexico
Paleontologists led by Don Wolberg study a 4.25 square mile tract northeast of White Rock, 40 miles south of Farmington, where 72 to 73 million year old fossils unfold. Finds include two probable dinosaurs, a sauropod like brontosaur and a duck billed hadrosaur, plus skin impressions and a theropod. Remains will be cleaned, studied, and stored at Socorro's New Mexico Tech, with field work continuing through October 1984.
