Papago (Papago) Tribe moves to acquire Trico Electric Cooperative facilities to bring power to scattered settlements in the Mohave Desert. Officials plan 50 miles of new lines, with first villages receiving lights and refrigerators next year, though full electrification will take years. Villagers sample 100 degree summers without modern comforts.
