As Great Falls High and Havre High boys’ basketball teams get ready to battle each other this week, they are participating in a nearly 96-year tradition-playing for the Ole Goat. The Ole Goat is a hand-carved mountain goat sculpture donated by Havre businessman, Ole Flaten, in October 1930 for the great rivalry between Great Falls High and Havre High. Whoever wins both games during the regular season gets to keep the Ole Goat until the team loses both games. If the games are split, Ole Goat gets to stay with the team who w...
It seems like just yesterday that the Montana State University-Northern women’s basketball team opened a six-game home stand with two intense rivalry games against UGF and Carroll College. But that home stand is now over, and it’s already time for the Skylights to rematch with the Argos and Fighting Saints. Tonight the No. 15 Skylights (5-3, 16-3) begin a six-game road stretch with a visit to No. 25 UGF (5-3, 14-6). The Skylights will also trip to Helena on Saturday night for...
Slumps are something the Montana State University-Northern men’s basketball program hasn’t endured very often. But there’s no denying the Lights are in one right now. If Northern is going to break out of a slump that has seen the Lights fall in five of their last six games, they’ll have to bust out of it on the road. Tonight, the Lights (2-6, 13-7) are in Great Falls for a bout with the UGF Argos (3-5, 10-7), while Northern travels to nationally-ranked Carroll College (7-2, 1...
A proposal to use a mixture of funding sources for the reconstruction of city streets was presented to Havre City Council’s Streets and Sidewalks Committee Wednesday night. Council member Andrew Brekke presented a detailed plan that calls for raising some of the money for the project through a mill levy increase that would have to be approved by voters. Some would have to be paid for by residents of the neighborhood where the street repairs are planned. The remainder would come from city revenues. For instance on a $...

Sen. Jon Tester, D-Mont., has penned a letter to President Barack Obama requesting that he take up several issues with Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau when he comes to Washington, D.C., for a state dinner in March. Obama extended the invitation to Trudeau in December for the March 10 dinner at the White House.

There can no debating the fact that the Havre High girls basketball team has been on a roll, but if the Blue Ponies want that to continue, they will need to take their game to the next level. That's because this week, the Ponies face the daunting task of playing back-to-back games against their Class AA rivals as Great Falls High (10-1, 4-0) is set to invade the HHS gymnasium tonight. That game will tip-off at 7 p.m. Then, Havre will get a day off, before traveling to Great...
It's not often that a team gets a chance to do something that hasn't been done in 25 years, but tonight the Havre High boys basketball team can do just that by winning back the Ole Goat. The last time the Blue Ponies (8-4, 4-2) had possession of the Ole Goat was in 1991, but after beating the Bison (6-2, 2-2) Dec. 21, 69-55 at the HHS gymnasium, HHS can win back the trophy with a win in Great Falls at Swarthout Fieldhouse. Tip-off is set for 7:30 p.m. "It has been a long...
I’m thinking of running for president. You can’t run. You are too old and crippled. You walk with a cane. Walking doesn’t have the same elan. Listen: “I’m walking for president.” Who would vote for that? True, you won’t appeal to the youth. But consider, how many of the youth of today bother to vote? Good point. By rights, young people should rule the world. “A Game Boy in every hand.” “Make Angry Birds, Not War.” But if the young people don’t care to rule, I have an even be...
