C6 Ti SPOKESMAN-REVIEW Aug. 17, 1988, Spokane, Wash. REGIONAL Drug arrests in Yakima soaring in 1988 Seattle ups its bid for ferry terminal Associated Press Police made 422 arrests for nar cotics violations through the end of July, compared with 183 during the same period last year. More than half the arrests have occurred in the Spruce Street area. YAKIMA Drug arrests in the first seven months of the year are up 131 percent over the same period in 1987, according to Police Chief Pleas Green.

than Seattle, and Tacoma promises to pay more attention to Alaska's needs, Seattle bills itself as the traditional Alaska entry point to the Lower 48. The Gateway Terminal would be home to Alaska theme exhibits and offices of Alaska-oriented tourism and commercial ventures, Ding-field said. The Seattle delegation also released results of a telephone survey of 262 southeast Alaska residents. It found 60 percent preferred that the terminal remain in Seattle, while 19 percent preferred Bellingham and 3 percent Tacoma. Associated Press SEATTLE The Port of Seattle is proposing to build a new $4.6 million terminal to keep Alaska ferries coming here instead of to Tacoma or Bellingham.

The Gateway Terminal, as it would be known, also could handle ferries to British Columbia and elsewhere. The proposal was unveiled Monday in Juneau, Alaska, where the three Washington cities are pushing competing bids to be the Alaska ferries' Puget Sound-area terminus. Seattle has been the southern stop for nearly two decades. But the Alaska Marine Highway System's lease on Pier 48, just cli south of the Washington state fer- Pi ries terminal, expires in about a lir year. da A hearing with the Alaska Legis- gu lature's transportation committee continued Tuesday, with the city tail delegations expected to meet in pri- be vate Wednesday with the ferries' Vi five-member selection committee.

th The Tacoma City Council has authorized up to $15 million in bonds sa to build a terminal on its water- de front, while the Port of Bellingham may spend up to $5 million to con- us vert a cargo facility into a ferry qu terminal.

Crews keep close watch fire lines Associated Press Firefighters kept a close watch Tuesday on fires threatening homes in a Montana town, while high winds fanned flames in Wyoming's National Park and elsewhere in the West. Two wind-driven fires burned out of control Tuesday in the southeastern Montana town of Lame Deer, threatening housing developments and forcing the evacuation of 40 houses Monday night. Fire crews, which had carved lines around the flames, stood by in case the fires jumped the lines. The Slick blaze crept to within 300 yards of houses of town Monday, and a acre fire 112 miles to the northwest up to and around a trailer 7 home before crews blocked its path with a fire line, said fire Information officer Jerry Chapman. Winds of 12 mph to 15 mph hampered firefighting efforts early Tuesday, but the wind shifted later and began blowing the fires back into themselves to the south, Chapman said.

In Idaho, dry, windy weather de. layed control of the Ruby Rapids fire in the Nez Perce National Forest in the west-central part of the state, but firefighters were having more success in other parts of the state. At Yellowstone, home of the famed Old Faithful geyser, park officials reopened the west entrance Tuesday, but fallen trees and poor visibility from a fire forced them to keep 14 miles of road closed. quite a lot of fire activi- ty there again today, (and) they're still cleaning up from yesterday," said park spokeswoman Joan Anzelmo. The 292-space Madison Junction campground also remained of f-limits to tourists Tuesday.

winds were hampering efforts to combat the flames, which charred about 241,000 acres of the country's oldest national park. "The only help we're getting is from the cooler temperatures," said Anzelmo, adding that thermometers Tuesday afternoon had hit only the mid-70s. In Idaho, a few days of rain have given a major boost to the crews that have been trying to get the upper hand on forest fires for weeks. Both the Nez Perce and Payette forests in west-central Idaho were hit by more lightning Monday, setting off new fires. But most were small and quickly controlled, forest officials said.

"Every night we can count on getting hammered," said Mary Zsbinski, Nez Perce information officer. Winds up to 30 mph and dry weather pushed back the control time on the Ruby Rapids fire along the Main Salmon River from Monday to Wednesday. An incendiary device was found at the scene, and the Salmon Ranger District is offering a 65,000 reward for information about the apparent arson, Zabinski said.
