  • 9969-6180. Chief Tommy Thompson of Celilo Indians. April 19, 1945. Chief Thompson and his grandson Otis Anderson came to Portland to make final arrangements for the Feast of the First Salmon. He received nearly $500 in donations to help with the annual event to be held that weekend. It was very rare for Thompson to wear a three piece suit and this writer has never seen another one.

Glenn Howell acted as commentator for the pageant.

  • 9305-B7051 Dip netting salmon at Horseshoe falls at Celilo using stationary nets (set-dip, or bag-netting). Stationary nets were rested on the bottom of the channel to await a fish, rather than being moved to capture one. These nets were much larger and the net around the hoop was fixed open, rather than movable nets that had a thong which would close the net like a purse around the fish to prevent its escape. Stationary dip nets are much deeper than movable nets, the one shown here may be five to six feet deep. This type of net worked best when fish were likely to be caught falling back from strong currents or attempts to leap the falls. When the fish would strike the net, a vibration would travel through a string to the fisherman, who would lift the fish up quickly. This string can be seen hanging from the hoop and resting on the planks by the fisherman's right foot. The man in the foreground is Louis Jack and on the left is Joe Skahan. Photo by Ralph Gifford ca. 1940

  • 9305-B7076. The last public appearance of Chief Tommy Thompson, photographed here with his wife Flora, as they were arriving in Celilo for the Feast of the First Salmon on Saturday, May 11, 1957. Chief Thompson, age 102, came to "say a few words of farewell" to the salmon and the falls at the annual festival being held just two months after Celilo had been permanently submerged by the backwaters of The Dalles Dam. After the ceremonies and an overnight stay in Celilo village, he returned to his room at the Hanby nursing home in Hood River. According to newspaper accounts, on the night of his return he had nightmares, which caused him to climb over the guardrails of his bed, when he fell and fractured his right hip. He was taken to the Hood River Memorial hospital where surgeons placed a steel pin in his hip. The next year's Salmon Feast was held in Tommy Thompson's honor, but the elderly Chief never again personally attended. He lived two more years and passed away on April 12, 1959.

  • 9305-B7338. The heavily fished channel between Chief and Standing islands about 1928. In the background is Ateem rock, that the Albert brothers took over in the 1930s. They were Yakama Indians that forced the Culpus family away from their traditioal site, taking over and excluding other Indians. They poured concrete forms on the rock to change the channel to their advantage as well as a base for their own cable car; Ateem became the most altered of any of the Celilo Falls fishing sites except the previously dynamited Downes channel that was enlarged in the 1880s to make room for a fish wheel. Ultimately the Albert brothers were forced to relinquish their monopoly on the island, but the dispute remained a continual crisis in Celilo for many years.

This was the area that was most accessible to tourists, who were constantly walking around therocks buying fish and the low-hanging cable line was a hazard.
