Havre is just 40 miles from the Canadian border. But no matter how close Canada and the United States are in relation to Havre, and Montana State University-Northern, when it comes to football, the two countries are worlds apart. No one probably knows that better right now than MSU-N senior wide receiver Seth Roemmele. And that's because he's played both. Football in Canada is a 12-man game, as compared to 11-man football, but, it's not only the rules that are much different,...

The schools at Fort Belknap Indian Reservation are working to start a new tradition in teaching students their traditions. Native American Week started Sept. 24, and this was the first year Hays-Lodge Pole, Dodson and Harlem schools joined together in a group effort to bring the week to life for students, said "Little" Don Racine III, a language and cultural teacher at Hays-Lodge Pole and one of the organizers for the event. Throughout the week, activities abounded for...
After five straight losses, the Havre High football team doesn't really have much chance at making the postseason. Yet with one of the best teams in Class A invading Blue Pony Stadium tonight, the Blue Ponies still have a chance at getting a signature win. That team is second-ranked Billings Central, which comes into Havre with a perfect 6-0 record. The Ponies and Rams, who met in the Class A state championship game in Havre back in 2004, will renew their rivalry tonight. Kick...
The Montana State University-Northern Lights began their season-long grind, the first under head coach Andrew Rolin, all the way back on Aug. 5. So last week's bye week was a welcome site for the young Lights. Now however, Northern begins the second half of the Frontier Conference season, and to snap a four-game losing skid, the Lights (0-4, 1-4) will have to do it against the red-hot Eastern Oregon Mounties. But while the Mounties (2-2, 2-2) come to Havre riding some strong...
Tobacco companies are dumping millions of dollars into Montana to deceive voters by filling our mailboxes and cluttering our TV screens. It’s time to clear the smoke around Ballot Initiative I-185. Let’s look at the facts: In addition to fully funding Medicaid coverage for 100,000 Montanans and ensuring healthcare access for our veterans, seniors and people with disabilities, I-185 will also fund tobacco prevention and cessation programs and services, support funding for veteran suicide prevention and prevent our rural hospit...
I wish to unread a news article I found this week but, apparently, until my hereditary Alzheimer’s sets in I’m stuck with it in my brain. The Associated Press reported that a bowling alley owner got stuck in his pin setting machine Sunday and died there. For real. It’s the kind of tragedy you expect to see in a movie — a dark comedy or a horror movie — not something you expect to happen in real life. Many years ago, now, two friends and I were watching a video of horse and...
The Havre High volleyball team has been on a roll lately, and with their six-match homestand coming to a close Saturday, the Blue Ponies will look to continue their winning ways. Since the Ponies were previously in action last Saturday in a win over Lewistown, they will have a full week of rest under their belt before hosting Conrad, a Class B opponent Saturday. The match is set to start at approximately 11:30 a.m., inside the HHS gymnasium. "It's been fun for us to be able...
It's becoming quite clear that, with how good the Frontier Conference is in volleyball again this season, wins, especially on the road, are going to be hard to come by. But, Saturday night in Dillon, someone is going to get their first Frontier win of the season, and the Montana State University-Northern Skylights are hoping it's them. Northern (0-5, 1-16) takes on UM-Western (0-5, 4-11) Saturday night, with the winner grabbing its first win of the year in conference play....
This weekend is a big one for Montana State University-Northern Athletics. Once again, the NLASF is hosting the Legends for Lights Pheasant Jamboree. Over the years, the event has gotten bigger and bigger and this year will be no exception. Included in the slate this year is a trap shoot that runs all day today at the Havre Trap Club. There is also an auction and social event tonight at the 4-H Chuckwagon. Saturday, the event focuses on the Lights’ football game against E...
The Montana Grizzlies certainly have to feel good about the first five weeks of Bobby Hauck's return to the helm in Missoula, but there's no time to get complacent, either. While the Griz' biggest rival, the Montana State Bobcats rest with a bye this week, the Griz return home to host a struggling, but still dangerous, Portland State squad. The Grizzlies and Vikings meet Saturday at 2 p.m. in Washington-Grizzly Stadium. And while the No. 14 Griz (2-0, 4-1) are off to a hot sta...
For some, October begins the season of harvest. For others, October marks the swift slide to Christmas. Children think only of candy that will rot the teeth. While Halloween has staked out its place as the punctuation mark for the month of October, many are unaware that the flag of that great reformer, Martin Luther, was already firmly planted in place. October 31, 1517, is considered to be the genesis of what we know now as the Reformation. Martin Luther certainly knocked upon a door — the door of the castle church in W...
The seasons change and so do we as we walk this grief route. We shuffle on but this we know, we’re loved without a doubt. Some special things take place each day, right now we’re lonely, dear. A “‘versarie’s” near — this time of year, twill surely bring a tear. We’re born to die; we’ll go back “home” as soon as You, Lord, call! We’ve work to do but when time’s up, we’ll skip o’er earthly wall. Death dates sneak up, you get a shock, knocks wind right out of you. A picture near brings on a tear, our heart does ache, that’s t...
You know, Lord, when sitting upon a hilltop surveying all within eyesight, one might wonder about the river meandering below; who knew how much water to put into it, what is the water’s source and what is its destination. Then along comes a merry little breeze which is not seen nor can anyone touch it nor can anyone move it. One might wonder who knows where the breeze lives or where it is going to go from here. While on the hilltop observing the panorama view one could consider the earth, the various contours, or even the d...
Out our way, Charlie and I only used two or three horses for working cattle. Charlie usually rode Jet, a solid bay who was solid and steady, and he often allowed me to ride “Freckles,” an Appaloosa who was excitable and needed a firm hand. And of course, most of all I rode “Doc” — aka Goliath — 16 ½ hands and 1,200 pounds and unafraid of any bull. It really didn’t matter all that much which horse we rode as the day’s work was short and usually involved nothing more than riding fence or pushing the herd a bit further down the...

Press release The Montana State University-Northern October artist of the month is Teresa Webber Getten. Getten has been well-known in the Havre community for at least the last three years since her days working for a local newspaper and, most recently, as a freelance portrait photographer. "The most important thing to capture in a photograph is the moment, the emotion and the story," she said. "Sometimes, as a photographer, you have to wait for the right moment. Once you get...

Chambers said the acoustic show will start at 7 and end at 9 p.m. The full rock show at Harvest Moon will start at 10:30 p.m. and consist of the...
On the football field, it can sometimes be hard to measure improvement. Certainly, wins and losses are one way, but another is the eye test and when it comes to that, few players on the Havre High football team pass the test more easily than Mason Dionne. Overall, it's been another tough season for the Blue Ponies, who play in the ultra-competitive Eastern A conference. That makes every game a challenge and it's also part of the reason why the Ponies, despite being improved,...
