When you meet Fred Smiley you are struck by two things: unceasing energy and his work load which, at age 72, would be hard for most people half his age to maintain. To the gangly, Montana State University-Northern professor of education, however, those characteristics are not contradictory but assets of a good teacher. "When I was young I had lots of energy. It's never dissipated," said Smiley. That attitude isn't restricted to the classroom. Oftentimes he can be found in his...

Football has been a journey for Montana State University-Northern's Malcolm Manuel and it's one that he won't soon forget.

By Emily Mayer The Hill County Democrat ran a lengthy article regarding the building of the new Hill County Courthouse in its Oct. 9, 1915 issue. The article states that the building should be done and ready for business in January 1916, and that “the construction of the building is what is termed the Mushroom System composed of pillars and floors slabs, the same being reinforced with steel and it is an interesting fact to know that in the construction of this building that each story of the frame including the placing of f...
“Love your columns,” the email starts. No “Hello.” No “Dear Pam.” Not even a “Hey.” It just jumps right into the middle of a declaration of my awesomeness. Welcome to my beautiful life. A girl dreams, for years, of something like this happening. You work toward the goal, but sometimes you can’t bring yourself to belie— You do know that when I said “girl” I meant that as a nice, light-hearted, casual, way of saying woman, chick, broad or whatever to mean me since I started...

It’s no secret, the Montana State University-Northern Lights want to win, and they want to win badly. Five-game losing streaks will make a team even hungrier for that W. But the Lights aren’t alone in their quest. And Saturday’s opponent, the College of Idaho Yotes come to Havre equally as hungry. The Lights (0-4, 0-5) and Yotes (1-3, 1-4) have a combined one win this season, and C of I’s came all the way back on Aug. 29. So something will have to give when the Yotes make th...
The Montana State University-Northern Skylights aren’t going to be perfect in October. And probably not in November either. But if their second, and unfortunately last game of the Duck Inn Classic is any indication, perfection is exactly what the Skylights are striving for, because even in the season’s infancy, they are looking pretty darn good. On Thursday night inside the Armory Gymnasium, Northern improved to 2-0 on the young season — doing it by blowing out The King’s Univ...

From the very first game this season, new Havre High head volleyball coach Tamecia Jarvis has pushed the Blue Ponies to be better. And so far, it's worked. Havre has already won more games overall and more games in the Central A Conference than it did all of last season, and as the Ponies get ready to take on Browning Saturday on the road, they will be looking to improve their record to 7-4 overall and 4-1 in conference play. "We just need to keep trying to improve," Jarvis sa...
For the Montana State Bobcats and Montana Grizzlies, the objective this weekend remains the same — both teams want to play better than they did last week. But there’s a difference. One team is on a two-game winning streak, while the other needs to bounce back from a stinging road loss. The No. 19 Bobcats (1-1, 2-2) suffered a 49-41 loss at Northern Arizona last Saturday night, but the score wasn’t indicative of how the game went, as NAU rolled to a 42-14 lead by the end of th...
If there is one game that has been marked on the calendar of the Havre High football team all season long, it's Belgrade. And finally, tonight, the Blue Ponies and Panthers will battle it out for Central A conference supremacy. If there is one team that's had the number of the Ponies in recent years it's been Belgrade (1-4. 1-0). Last season, the Panthers knocked off Havre (4-2, 2-0) 42-27 at Blue Pony Stadium, marking their third straight win in the series. The victory also...
Behind every great team is a great quarterback, and when looking at the success of the Chinook football team over the past two seasons, it shouldn't come as a surprise that it has someone like Ian McIntosh under center. McIntosh, who has been the starting quarterback for the Sugarbeeters for the last three seasons isn't just a great player, he is a tremendous leader. He helped lead the Beeters to the doorstep of a Class C 8-Man state championship a season ago and after a 5-0...
