Western scored twice in the third stanza, but MSU-N...
Make that two in a row for the Havre High football team. And the Blue Ponies' second straight win was a little sweeter. Havre celebrated homecoming with a 41-22 win over the Livingston Rangers Friday night at Blue Pony Stadium. The win was revenge for last season's crushing loss at Livingston in the regular season finale. Havre trailed 6-0 in the first quarter, but the Ponies' offense was dominant. Dane Warp threw four touchdown passes, two to Thomas Gruber and two to Nate...
Ken Blatt St. Marks said he may be sworn in as chair of the Chippewa Cree Tribal Council as early as Monday. St. Marks said Tribal Court Judge Donna Running Wolf ruled in his favor Thursday in a lawsuit he filed against the tribe’s election board. The board threw out the results of the election in which St. Marks finished first of five candidates. St. Marks has been in a prolonged battle with the tribal establishment at Rocky Boy’s Indian Reservation. He says that is because he is cooperating with federal officials inv...
The Festival Days theme was “Honoring Our Past and Celebrating Our Future,” this year and it did just that as community members came together to take part in the festivities. The highlight of the festival, the parade, went swimmingly down 5th Avenue Saturday. The streets were lined with on-lookers for the floats from many organization, clubs, businesses and community members. The favorites of the judges were Northern Montana Hospital for best commercial float, First Lut...
Any economist or sociologist can tell you that the price of all goods and services are based on actual worth and perceived value which is the sum total of both market value and personal value — none of these numbers are the same, and any two-bit salesman can tell you that. For example, consider the humble widget, that symbolic product used in teaching business and economics. It's the equivalent of the X of 2X+3=7; or the N of going to the nth degree; or the snipe of “Hey, gre...
On Sept. 19, a NorthWestern Energy pole carrying a 69-kilovolt line and smaller distribution lines burned just outside the company’s substation in Zurich, between Chinook and Harlem. As a result, our lines were hanging low over U.S. Highway 2 and the BNSF tracks, posing a hazard to highway and railroad users. NorthWestern had two crews on the scene for more than nine hours, working to make repairs. NorthWestern Energy would like to thank the Harlem Fire Department, the Blaine County Sheriff’s Department, the Montana Hig...

In this week’s The Havre Advertiser, dated Sept. 28, 1893, there was a lot of news in the “City and State” social pages, as well as a weather report written by C. W. Ling, Havre’s long-time weatherman. For the upcoming month of October, we could expect a normal temperature of 44 degrees. At the time, the warmest October was in 1889 at 49 degrees and the coldest was in 1881 with a mean temperature of 30 degrees. The average rainfall for October was .51 inches back in 1893. I...

With the U.S. Congress playing a “game of chicken” over cutting out the funding for the health care reform act, U.S. Sen. Jon Tester, D-Mont, said the lawmakers now should be looking at ways to improve what he called a good bill, instead of taking more than 40 votes to repeal or defund it. The U.S. Senate is expected this afternoon to pass a bill to keep government running after next Tuesday that strips away a House of Representatives requirement to defund Obamacare, the health care reform act Congress approved in 2010. Tes...

Sen. Jon Tester, D-Mont., accurately predicting what would happen in the hours following his press conference Thursday, said he is hopeful Congress will work out a deal to keep the government running, but an even bigger showdown with bigger implications is coming next month. Tester said Thursday afternoon he thought the Senate would be able to pass a resolution to keep government running through November, past the Oct. 2 deadline that would shut much of the government down without congressional action. The Senate expected thi...
It’s already been an exciting and successful season for the Havre High golf teams. But now, the Blue Ponies’ season gets a little more exciting, a little more intense and a little more pressure-packed. And it all happens on a golf course the Ponies know well. On Saturday, Havre will play host to the 2013 Central A Divisional at Prairie Farms Golf Course. On the line are coveted team and individual spots at next weekend’s Class A state tournament in Polson. The top two boys...
When the 2013 Frontier Conference Football Preseason Poll was released in August, little was expected of the Montana State University-Northern Lights and the UM-Western Bulldogs. The Lights were tabbed to finish fifth this season while the Bulldogs were predicted to finish seventh. But heading into Saturday’s showdown in Dillon, both the Lights and Bulldogs have already proven just how wrong that poll can be. Northern (3-1, 3-1) will meet up with No. 15 Western (3-0, 3-0) S...
Even with steady improvement from the beginning of the season, the Havre High volleyball team struggled in its home debut against a very talented conference opponent. Thursday night, the Central A Blue Ponies hosted the Lewistown Golden Eagles. And while the Ponies are celebrating homecoming this week, it wasn’t the positive homecoming the Ponies were hoping for. The Eagles swept the Ponies in three games by scores of 25-11, 25-23, and 25-11. In games one and three, the P...
It’s been an interesting first four weeks of the college football season. But for the Montana Grizzlies and the Montana State Bobcats, the road to the Big Sky Conference championship officially begins on Saturday. And for both teams, the road to the conference title, and the FCS playoffs begins on the road, against quality opponents. The No. 7 Grizzlies (3-0) visit No. 24 Northern Arizona (2-1) Saturday night, while the No. 11 Bobcats (2-2) pay a visit to the University of N...
Tonight’s Homecoming game between the Havre Blue Ponies and conference rival Livingston Rangers is appealing for several reasons. The last time the Ponies and Rangers met was at the end of the 2012 season. It was the final conference game for the Ponies, and the result determined the road the Ponies took in the Class A state playoffs. The end result was a 64-32 loss for the Ponies in Livingston, a 2-2 conference record, and a No. 3 seed heading into the postseason. But it was...
Homecoming is typically marked on everybody’s schedule, but tonight’s Central A matchup is a game that would have been marked on the Havre High football calendar, homecoming or not. Tonight at 7, the Blue Ponies (1-2-1) will host the conference rival Livingston Rangers (0-4) at Blue Pony Stadium in Havre. Homecoming adds a lot of extra excitement to tonight’s game, but so does the thought of revenge. Last year, in the regular season finale, the Rangers defeated the Ponies 62-4...
For the first two weeks of the Frontier Conference volleyball season, the Montana State University-Northern Skylights went unbeaten and made winning look relatively easy. However, beating the UM-Western Bulldogs turned out to be anything but. On Thursday night, in front of a large crowd at the Armory Gymnasium, the Skylights had to come back from a 1-0 deficit to defeat the scrappy Bulldogs in four sets and improve to 4-0 in league play. Northern knocked off Western by scores...
