ColUMbUS CoUGaRS football
By Ron FaustSpecial to the News
Much has changed for the Columbus Cougar football team since last year. And its not just the usual graduation losses. The big news is the shake-up in District 4B where long-time Cougar rivals Huntley Project and Shepherd have departed to join District 3B - a result of Broadus moving down to Class C. What’s left of 4B is Columbus, Red Lodge, Joliet, Roundup, and Big Timber, which has moved from 5B.
Facing that new district landscape will be a young Cougar team that lost 11 seniors to graduation including stalwarts Tyler Ostrum, Brady Wiggs, Daniel Wiggs, Dusty Sobrero, Chase Kent, Colter Gibson, Braydon Beer, Lukas Washington and Quinton Edeler.
But the cupboard is not bare. Junior quarterback Kade Osborne is back after throwing for over 1,700 yards and 16 TD’s a year ago. Senior Brandon Clouse caught 18 passes a year ago and will likely be Osborne’s primary receiver. Junior Brady Exner ran for over 200 yards in spot backfield duty last year and will likely get the majority of carries as the Cougars switch to a single back spread offense. Senior Justin Meier also saw duty in a variety of spots.
Despite the inexperience - the Cougars return no starters to the offensive line - there is optimism that the Cougars will reach the playoffs for the fifth straight year behind veteran Coach John Smith, who returns for his 24th season. To do so, the Cougars will have to get by Red Lodge, who ran the table in 4B a year ago and are among the 4B favorites.
The Cougars’ next game is an away contest against Townsend on Sept. 20.

Renegade football gave fans some thrilling moments last season.The 5-3 squad won its final conference game to advance to the play-offs. In that play-off game against the Hysham Pirates in Hysham, the Renegades held a 1-point lead in the final minutes when the Pirates took possession and scored with two seconds remaining on the clock, giving them the win 27-22.It’s a loss the RPR squad is looking to avenge. And with five return-ing starters, optimism is high.

Red Lodge Rams Cross Country coach Matt Schrowe feels the “team returned a lot of very good runners this year.”“For the boys, seven of the nine varsity runners are returning and for the girls, six of the nine var-sity runners are returning from last years State team,” he said. “Each of the teams, boys and girls, worked hard through the summer months. In fact, twelve runners spent four days at the Whitefish Running Camp in Big Fork, in June. With this type of off season dedication and a lot of returning runners, the Red Lodge Running Rams look for-ward to another great season.”
They have five returning seniors this year, all on the boys side: Cesar Beiber, Isaac LaRowe, Will Haman, Eric Dye and Mi-cah Ballard.
“All are on track to have a great season and are really good role models for the under-classmen,” said Schrowe.
In addition, they have a new assistant coach, Dylan Zizter.
“Zizter ran cross country for Concordia College in Portland, Ore., and is really excited about bringing his running experi-ence to the kids,” said Schrowe.

To say the Absarokee High School volleyball squad was young last year would be an understatement.Comprised of two juniors, a smattering of sophomores and several freshman, the squad gelled rela-tively quickly and posted a 6-6 regular season record, finished fourth at the district tournament and earned itself a trip to divisionals.Named to last year’s 4C all-conference teams were senior outside hitter Haley Fallang and sophomore setter Emma Chandler, both of whom are returning this year.Also back are Maisey Sheppard, Kylee Gullings and Makayla Peterson.Coach Kathryn Fjare said the squad has strong leadership from its two seniors and is looking forward to hitting the court.The team’s next match is Sept. 19 at home against in-county rival Reed Point-Rapelje.

They have so much drive and a love for the game. It will be fun watching everyone grow,” said Webber.

The roof of the Meadowlark Assisted living center is set to receive a new roof due to an approved proposal signed during the regularly scheduled commissioners meeting on Tuesday, Sept. 10.Commissioners received two proposals, one for over $25,000 and a second from Curt Rob-bins Reliable Construction (of Columbus) for $20,322.49. Robbins proposal was unanimously approved. Commissioner Jerry Dell said the project has been in the works for a few years, but did not elaborate. When commissioners didn’t further explain the cause for the repair to the roof, Human Resource & Finance Spe-cialist Joe Morse said the project is a result of hai l storm damage from a few years ago. Although unsure of the exact distribution of funds, Morse said the project will be largely covered by an insurance claim.
Disaster and Emergency Services Coordina-tor Carol Arkell presented a proposal from D y n a m i c E n v i r o n m e n t a l A s s o c i a t e s , I n c .
(DEA) to begin a National Environmental Poli-cy Act (NEPA) study at a Columbus repeater s i te . Th e $ 5 , 5 5 0 s t u d y, w h i c h i s f u n d e d through a homeland security grant, is the start of the second phase of the project said Arkell, and will ultimately conclude with a new build-ing and tower. The study was approved. Also approved by Commissioners was an amendment to an existing streetlight contract with Nor thWester n Energy. The contrac t , which Commissioners originally approved in late January will now change the location and type of pole in the Park City lighting district.
ElEctionsClerk & Recorder Pauline Mishler reported in a Sept. 5 letter to Commissioners that the Absarokee Water and Sewer District will be the only distr ict to hold an election this N o v e m b e r. C u r r e n t A b s a r o k e e Pr e s i d e n t Mary Anna Espeland has not re-filed for her position. There are three seats up for election, and six candidates have petitioned for the spots. K ar l G austad and Wi l l iam K ampfer (Bill) are both running again and are the cur-rent incumbents. Previous board member
Mike Borseth will also be on the ballot. The remaining three names on the ballot will be Pete Gaustad, G. Michael Reynolds and James Tryon. The Absarokee election will be a mail ballot, and 532 ballots will be sent out on Oct. 18 said Mishler. Park City, Reed Point and Rapelje water and sewer districts will not hold elections. Accord-ing to Mishler ’s letter, the three Park City incumbents (Robert Lowman, James Elmore and Gary Schanck) have opted to continue their positions, without opposition.
Similar ly, the two posit ions avai lable in Reed Point were filled by incumbents Marcie Haines and Denise Wright. The two open posi-t ions in Rapel je were not f i l led, and the remaining members will need to appoint indi-viduals to fill the vacancies.Proclamation
The week of Sept. 22 through 28 is now “National Employer Support of the Guard and Reserve Week” due to a proclamation signed Sept. 10 by the commissioners. The proclama-tion recognizes that “employers provide criti-
cal support to members of the National Guard and Reser ve; a l lowing Cit izen Warr iors to serve whenever the Nation calls, often forego-ing financial gain and making sacrifices in the process.” salariEs
Commissioners approved salaries for Still-water County personnel for fiscal year 2013-2014. Those employees will receive a 2.1 per-cent cost of living adjustment, as well as $1.50 of longevity pay per pay period for each year of service. FirE sEason
Assistant Fire Warden Carol Arkell provid-ed the fire season update, and recommended that the county remain in Stage 1 restrictions. She said that although Columbus received rain over the past week, other parts of the county are still dry. rEPorts oF notE
The following fees, fines or forfeitures were collected for the month of August: Clerk & Recorder, $7,592.75; Sheriff, $850 and Justice Court collected $13,780.

Stillwater Billings Clinic celebrates 1-year milestone
By Jillian ShoemakerSCN Editor
The one -year anniversar y of the creat ion of the St i l lwater B i l l ings Cl in ic in Columbus was this past Tuesday, Sept. 10. The event wasn’t
marked by any large signs or spectacles, but CEO Tim Russell was happy to reflect on the progress the Clinic has made and to look to the future.
The new 37,000 square foot, $16 mil l ion cl inic opened it ’s doors in 2012 with a clinic, emergency room, 10 hospital beds and supporting lab facilities. I t has state of the art CT scan machines, digital x-rays and dig-ital mammography equipment, is cer-tified as a trauma receiving facility, and just received approval of a three-year license as a critical access hos-pital. Add to that an “integrated facility” with the Billings Clinic network and electronic medical records, and visi-tors to the clinic should have what Russell called a “seamless delivery of services.”
The facility sports a dedicated heli-pad, which Russel l explained is a huge upgrade for accessibil ity and safety instead of landing in an old
football field they way it used to. And safety is key at the new facility, with clearly marked entrances, and spe -cial accommodations to support the 24-hour emergency room. The partnership with the Bill ings Clinic (which was recently named a member of the Mayo Clinic Care Net-work) enables patients at the Stillwa-ter Billings Clinic to access special-ists and additional resources.
The Clinic is more than just a hos-pital, it is a “cornerstone of communi-ty wellness” said Russell; the staff of doctors enable the clinic to be prima-ry care providers for the communi-ty.
As the year has g o n e by R u s s e l l s a y s t r a f f i c h a s increased drast i -c a l l y , w i t h t h e
c l i n i c s e e i n g bet ween 650 and 700 pat ients a month, and a record 218 patients in the ER in July. The building has room to potential-ly expand services including operat-i n g r o o m s a n d a d d i t i o n a l b e d s , although they are currently just pos-sibilities that Russell is considering. In the meantime, the facility is run-ning smoothly and Russell hopes that local people will continue to grow confident in their local health servic-es. And of course Russell said the new clinic was made (and continues to be) possible thanks to the foundation, members of the capital campaign and all those who will help in the future. The facility is located just behind the Town Pump at 710 N. 11th St., Columbus.
July was a record month with 218 patients in the
emergency room.
Stillwater County Commissioners approve new roof for Meadowlark, salaries
Joseph Smith is also suspected is similar scams in Sweet Grass and Gallatin counties
By Marlo PronovostSCN Reporter
A Bozeman man is behind bars on charges he alleged-ly bilked 10 Columbus businesses out of $2,350 in an advertising scam.Joseph Smith, 45, is being held at the Yellowstone County Detention Facility on $25,000 bond. Last Thurs-day he appeared in district court and pleaded not guilty to one felony count of Theft. His defense attorney had asked for a $5,000 bond, arguing the total alleged loss in the case amounted to around $2,300 and that Smith had a family and job in Bozeman.
According to court documents, a Columbus business contacted the Stillwater County Chamber of Commerce in October 2012 regarding a man named J. Smith was selling advertising claiming to be affiliated with the chamber. The chamber made contact with Smith, who said a few months prior, someone at the chamber had
granted him permission to do so, according to court documents.The chamber called the business back and told them to stop payment on the check.Smith was selling “business card advertising” to bor-der a map brochure of the Columbus area and was told by the chamber to stop telling business owners he was affiliated with them. The Columbus Police Department was contacted and through an investigation, found nine additional businesses that had also been allegedly scammed out of money by Smith, who used three dif-fered types of business logos and invoices during the transactions, according to court documents. When contacted by police, Smith said he was a legiti-mate businessman who worked with a partner. A busi-ness owner later identified Smith as the man who had introduced himself to her under the name of that alleged business partner, according to court documents.Columbus police also learned during the investigation that a similar scam had been pulled in Sweet Grass County. At last Thursday’s hearing, Chief Deputy Still-water County Attorney Nancy Rohde said Gallatin County businesses were involved as well.

#1493 chapter of The Questers
presented framed 9/11 artifacts
to Red Lodge Fire Rescue, Sept.
9. While visiting Red Lodge in
August 2011, Terence Scott, a
9/11 volunteer recovery worker
from Staten Island, gave Red
Lodge Fire Rescue these arti-
facts from the Sept. 11, 2001 ter-
rorist attack on the World Trade
Center. Scott recovered a large piece
of metal from a fire engine
beneath the rubble. He cut
many small pieces of the metal
to give to New York area police
and firefighters, survivors, and
families of victims of the tragic
event. In 2011, he and his wife
took a cross county trip, taking
along a few metal fragments
and several photographs that
Scott had taken as he walked
back to the ferry after working
all day at Ground Zero. People
often refer to the bubbles in his
photograph as “spirits rising
from the ashes.” For the first
time in ten years, he decided to
give some of the metal frag-
ments to those with no direct
relation to the event. If he felt a
special connection with a person
he met on the trip, he gave a
photograph; if he felt a special
connection to a town, he gave a
photograph and a metal frag-
ment to the local firehouse.
Scott speaks fondly of his
unplanned visit to Red Lodge
where he won a first place tro-
phy for his motorcycle during
the Antique Car and Motorcycle
Show. He also recalled having a
fabulous dinner at the Elks. In
addition to the photograph and
metal fragment given to Red
Lodge Fire Rescue, he gave pho-
tographs to two local residents;
Pamela Todd, and Tim Buck-
stead, owner of Bone Daddy’s.
The Questers is an interna-
tional antiques and historic
preservation organization. The-
atorium #1493 was chartered in
Red Lodge in 2011 and currently
has seven members: Karen
Hergenrider; Bonnie McKown;
Tera Reynolds, Chapter Presi-
dent; Lynn Schmaltz; Pamela
Todd, Montana State Organizer;
Warene Wall; and Colleen
Winchell. Questers are encour-
aged to participate in historic
preservation projects in their
local communities. Members of
Theatorium #1493 chose the
framing of the 9/11 artifacts as
their first preservation project.

Firefighter goes beyond call of duty
By Eleanor Guerrero
CCN Senior Reporter
In the aftermath of the Rock
Creek Fire, one firefighter talked
about his mission to help his commu-
nity beyond fighting fires.
“I work for the Jefferson County
Sheriff ’s Office in Conifer, Colorado,”
explained Scott Halladay recently on
a break from 12 hours of fire fighting
up at the Carbon County Fairgrounds
Incident Command Post. When called
to the Rock Creek Fire he said he was
just pulling a hose off of a Jefferson
County fire. His number one concern
is fighting fires. Halladay has major responsibility
in a fire for communications. He sets
“repeaters”(transmitter relays).
Working with fire behavior analysts
he sees where a fire’s heading and
jumps ahead to prevent communica-
tion “dead spots.” With a fire in the
rugged Beartooths, he cannot simply
drive there. Instead, a helicopter flies
him up to mountaintops where he sets
up the equipment and is picked up.
Steep canyons and drainages are big
challenges for safety. “If you can’t
have adequate communication, it can
shut down an operation. Communica-
tions wants everyone on the same fre-

The Beartooth Elks Lodge #534 honored the Late Bill
Alberta Sept. 8 with the Grand Opening of the Bill
Alberta Veterans Center situated in the basement of
the Lodge building. Alberta’s widow Norma received a
plaque from Glory Mahan, Leading Knight, which will
hang permanently in the center. The inscription reads ‘Bill
Alberta Memorial Veterans Center Dedicated Sept. 8, 2013,
in memory of William M. Alberta US army 1947-1951.’
Warene Wall, the Chair for the National Government
Commission for the Lodge, opened proceedings by welcom-
ing all, before Exalted Ruler Joel Todd, spoke of his
“respect” and “appreciation” for Alberta, and his “enjoy-
ment” of being called “kid” by him because Todd owns a
Medicare card. Todd thanked the VFW, American Legion, and the VFW
Auxiliary along with a host of others who donated items
and volunteered to help create the center.
“I thank everybody. The financial resources of this
lodge and the contributions from the public made it possi-
ble to thank our veterans.” Norma also received a print of her 60th wedding anni-
versary photograph courtesy of Flash’s photography.
Gary Race, Chair of the Lodge’s Veterans Committee,
said, “On behalf of the Elks Veterans Committees and the
other four veteran organizations in the area who contribut-
ed; the VFW, the American Legion, Operation Second and
Carbon Stillwater Yellow Ribbon Community…Veterans
this is your room, created for you to use.”
As to the honor, Norma said, “I feel fine, I’m really sur-
prised and honored for him, he was always for the veterans
and being an Elk, and spent a lot of time here. This place
looks so much different.”

A deployment of armed police personnel (below)
from both the Red Lodge City Police and Carbon
County Sheriff's Department descended on a resi-
dential home at Mountain Springs Villa on Satur-
day after dispatch had received a call from a con-
cerned person who had talked with the resident at
the house in question. The incident ended peaceful-
ly with the resident “cooperating completely” with
authorities said Police Chief Richard Pringle.
Pringle commented that the incident was a mis-
understanding with a third party whom the resident
was talking to on the phone. The third party then
called Red Lodge dispatch concerned about the hom-
eowner’s welfare. “He had taken some meds,” Pringle said.
The resident was allowed back into h i s home a f t e r b e i n g checked by med-ics.

“It was a non event,” he said.
