Maybe this winter is getting long for everyone, but it definitely has been too long for some people aching to get into the Guinness Book of World Records — those folks have been out in droves recently. UPI reported Monday that David Rush of Idaho dramatically recaptured his Guinness World Record for the number of CDs thrown into a bucket with a 12-inch opening. Rush set the new standard for CD-tossing to a record-breaking 50 CDs sunk in one minute. And he did it to help p...

The first two weeks of the spring volleyball season have been a tale of two different experiences for the Montana State University-Northern volleyball team. The Skylights, of veteran head coach Jerry Wagner, opened the special spring season with a win over Montana Western in the Armory Gymnasium. The victory snapped a nearly four-year frontier Conference winless drought for the program, and also served notice that the Skylights are on the right track. "Very excited," an...
Montana State University-Northern head wrestling coach Tyson Thivierge wasn't happy with his Lights when they wrestled the rival Providence Argos last month in Havre. What a difference a few weeks makes though. On Thursday night in Great Falls, the No. 19 Lights rebounded from that loss to the Argos by beating their arch rivals 22-15 on their home mat, in what was an exciting dual, and one that Thivierge had an excellent gameplan for. The Lights were trailing the Argos 15-6 af...
One of the things to come about due to the pandemic is college athletes playing this season and not losing any eligibility. That stipulation started with the NCAA when spring sports were canceled last year, and has continued through the 2020-21 school year. The NAIA also followed suit, and so, senior basketball players like Montana State University-Northern star tandem Mascio McCadney and David Harris can come back and play another year for the Lights next fall, which makes...
Start and stop. That's been the frustration of late for the Montana State University-Northern Skylights. Now though, the Skylights do get to start again. After having their game with Providence canceled Wednesday due to COVID-19 contact tracing within the Argo program, the Skylights' third canceled game in two weeks, they'll be back in the Amory Gymnasium this weekend to close out the home portion of their schedule. Northern takes on Montana Western Saturday night and Sunday...
It was an unusual senior night for the Havre High girls basketball team. First, their initial opponent, Browning had to drop out of the contest, putting the ceremony in danger. Then, undefeated Fort Benton agreed to fill in two days before the game would be played. But that came with the condition that the game could not be played at the HHS Gymnasium because Fort Benton would play at that gym seven days later for their District 9C Tournament. So, the Blue Ponies had to play t...

You know, Lord, reading Proverbs 17:22: "A merry heart doeth good like a medicine," was a reminded of long ago when several of us gathered over at C.B.'s house. (Just for fun, initials were used instead of names.) C.B. was getting up in years, so J.L. would invite several friends over; she may or may not bring cookies. C.B. always had tea or coffee about ready for whoever was coming. K.D., housekeeper for C.B., was usually there to "help" with a treat. Once seated around the s...
The Greater Havre Area Ministerial Association attempts to have one of its members write an article for the Religion page of the Havre Daily News each Friday, and I received the honor for producing this week's article. This year, Lent begins next Wednesday, Feb. 17, Ash Wednesday so perhaps it might be a good idea to write a bit about the origin of Lent and its purpose. For those of the Roman Catholic faith, Lent is a tradition we grew up with, as did many of the mainline...
Out our way, every cowboy hat starts in the same manner. Fresh off the shelf, it is chosen for color, fit and style. Yet as I am often reminded over the years, the hat begins to tell a story about the wearer. It becomes his or her signature - a biography of the life of its owner. Some hats never change much from when they were purchased, for the hat is only for show - for style. Most of the time it just sits in the closet and only comes out occasionally. Ah, but the cowboy's...
