Good start propels
Bucs over Bulldogs
Manor News By Lorna Holzwarth
BEACH - Coming right out of
the gate, the Running Bucs took a
big bite out of the Bowman
Bulldogs, scoring 12 unanswered
points led by Hailee Farstveet's
three 3-pointers. The determined
Bucs answered the call by getting
off to a good start that hasn't been
their protocal thus far this year.
The home team scored 21 first
quarter points using six different
players ending the first break 21-8.
The Bulldogs were outscored in all
four quarters and the defensive
Bucs never let up, holding Bowman
to only five points in the last quar-
ter.
Again, it was another balanced
attack having four players scoring
in double figures going on to win
64-31. For the Bucs, it was their
second District 13 win of the sea-
son.
Bowman County: 8, 16, 26, 31
Beach: 21,30, 39, 64
Beach scorers: Hailee Farstveet,
22; Bailey Waldal, 15; Kelcee
Dykins, 10; Cydni Stedman, 10;
Taylor Abraham, 3; Channa Clarin,

Schmeling, 1.
3-pointers: BC 3 (Sabe 2,
Woodley 1), Beach 8 (Farstveet 4,
Stedman 2, Abraham 1, Waldal 1).
Fouls: BC 20, Beach 15. Fouled
out: None.
Beach defeats Divide County
CROSBY - Kelcee Dykins and
Hailee Farstveet led the Buccaneers
with double-doubles in an overtime
victory over the Divide County
Maroons last Saturday night.
Kelcee led all scorers with 18 points
and also had a game high of 15
rebounds. Hailee Farstveet also
recorded double figures with 15
points and 12 rebounds.
As one fan put it: "If you
can't throw it in the ocean, it is
going to become ugly." That was
indeed a true statement as Beach
missed countless close shots and
then struggled with turnovers and
was out of sync the entire night.
The Bucs were forced to play
zone defense for most of the game
as their man defense was not able to
sustain the Maroons' interior attack.
The 6' 1" Ellie Gillund scored with
ease establishing her inside appear-
ance. Trying traps in the full-court
also broke down, that led to easy
lay-ups for the 8-3 Divide County
team.
With all that seemed doom and
gloom, and all of the adversity, the
Bucs did keep their composure and
their poise to win their ninth game
in overtime. They did find a way to
win and hopefully learn from that
experience and correct their defen-
sive "woe."

This time we'll learn more about
Frances Kress. She was born
December 15,1915, on a farm
northeast of Golva during a terrible
blizzard. Her father went with a
team of horses to get help and got
stuck. She went for seven years to
the Page School, graduated from
eighth grade in Golva, and from
High School in Beach in 1934.
After graduation she did child
care and helped wives on farms dur-
ing threshing season. She met her
husband Frank Kress while out
walking with a friend to a ballgame
and sat by him at a movie and start-
ed dating and later decided to get
married on Jan. 11, 1938, during
another terrible blizzard. Frank and
Frances lived and worked on sever-
al farms around the Golva area until
they moved into Beach in 1962.
During their farming days Frances
had a huge garden and would can
500 quarts and keep meat and veg-
etables in the root cellar. She
enjoyed making quilts, doing cross-
word and jigsaw puzzles. Frank
was a carpenter in Beach until his
death in 1964. They had seven chil-
dren, six are living. They live in
North Dakota, Pennsylvania,
Colorado, New York and
Minnesota. She has eight grandchil-
dren and 12 great-grandchildren.
She moved into the Manor when she
was 94 on Oct. 24, 2010. She likes
it here because she doesn't have to
shovel, clean off her car or take cfire
of her house. Frances attends all the
activities here and still comes to
exercise three times a week. She is
a delightful person who has a won-
derful smile and laugh and we are
happy to have her with us.

Billings County Zoning Board to con,,;ider landfills
Proposals for two landfills in
Billings County will be before the
Billings County Zoning Board on
Feb. 2.
Waste from oil and gas explo-
ration would be buried in the land-
fills. Both would need conditional
use permits from the county.
One of the permit applications
refers to a 80- to 100-acre disposal
facility/landfill to be located about 6
miles north of Fairfield and on the
west side of U.S. Highway 85. The
property is owned by Chimney Butte
Land L.L.P, which includes Allen
Thompson. Bums Excavating Inc. of
Mayer, Minn., would be leasing the
site, according to the application.
The other application is for a land-
fill spaced on a 480-acre tract north
and west of Fairfield. However, the
size of the proposed landfill isn't
specified in the application, said
Stacey Swanson, the county's zoning
director. Lynette Bushaw of Killdeer
is the applicant, and the landfill would
be on land owned by Kurt Kordon.
Swanson said Billings County
ordinances required that landfills be
licensed and approved by the North
Dakota Department of Health.
Landfills also cannot be within a
mile of a residence or a residentially
built up area, unless the owner of the
residence agrees otherwise.
The county's ordinance also
requires "there is no substantive evi-
dence that the facility will endanger
the public health or the environ-
ment."
For the permit to be approved, 60
percent of all property owners within
a ½ mile of a proposed landfill must
approve of it, according to the ordi-
nance.
The site of the 80- to 100-acre
facility would be in portions of the
sections with the legal descriptions of
W1/2 4-143-99, NE1/4 5-143-99,
SWI/4 33-144-99, and SE1/4 32-
144-99.
The site of ttae other landfill
would be located within property
described as the S1/2 and the NWI/4
31-143-99.
The Thursday, Feb. 2 meeting is
scheduled to begin at 1 p.m. at the
Billings County Courthouse in
Medora.

Harold Schafer's l OOth birthday tribute set
BISMARCK - The Theodore
Roosevelt Medora Foundation has
teamed up with Fargo production
company Prairie Airwaves for a
performance of the monthly pro-
gram Dakota Air: The Radio Show
in special tribute to Harold
Schafer - business leader and cre-
ator of the Medora Musical - in
honor of Schafer's 100th birthday
year.
The tribute will involve a live
performance during TRMF's
annual meeting on Friday, Jan. 27,
at 7:30 p.m., at Bismarck's Belle
Mehus Auditorium. The tribute is
to include a look at Schafer's con-
tributions to the state with music,
interviews, poetry and a bit of
comedy.
Schafer - who was born in
Stanton on Feb. 1, 1912 and died
in 2001 - was an entrepreneur who
created and chaired the board of
Gold Seal Company, North
Dakota's largest home-owned
business which made the brand
names Mr. Bubble, Glass Wax and
Snowy Bleach common household
words nationwide. Schafer also
led and funded much of the
restoration and development of
Medora, one of the state's top
tourist attractions.
Schafer's contributions to busi-
ness and love for youth and lead-
ership in America earned him the
role of the youngest-ever recipient
of the Horatio Alger Award, a
national award presented to a
select few who, as dedicated com-
munity leaders, demonstrate ini-
tiative and a commitment to excel-
lence as exemplified by achieve-
ments through honesty, hard work,
self-reliance and perseverance.
Schafer also founded the TRMF.
Dakota Air's performance of
the tribute show will feature per-
formances and presentations by
regional personalities, including
musicians, and a few members of
Schafer's family. The show will
be hosted by Merrill Piepkorn,
statewide radio personality, and
will include the band The Radio
Stars; visual, literary and perform-
ing North Dakota cowboy Bill
Lowman; a young trio from
Regent; the Waddington Brothers;
and skits by the Dakota Airheads
Acting Troupe. In addition, former
North Dakota First Lady Nancy
Jones Schafer, a musician and
accordionist, will perform.
The show will be attended by
invitation to members of the
TRMF, and a limited number of
complimentary tickets will be
available by call ng the founda-
tion office at (701) 223-4800.
"It is hard tc imagine what
Medora would be today without
Harold's Schafefs passion and
generosity," TRMF President
Randy Hatzenbuhler said. "We
will remember Harold's 100th
birthday throughout the year
beginning with this performance
at the Belle Mehus and during the
2012 Medora Musical season."

Church in Golva on Saturday to
attend the Funeral Mass for Ed
Nistler. He was well known in the
area, having lived here most of his
life. His most recent employment

friends with several people in the
surrounding area.
The family of Paul and Weinie
Barthel gathered at the Beach com-
munity center on Saturday for a
late Christmas celebration. There
was a "full house" since most of

Mary Kay and Josh Barthel,
Candace Murphy and Travis and

on Sunday evening.
Thursday, Steve Raisler drove a
busload of residents of the Golden
Valley Manor to Golva where they
enjoyed having treats at the Golva
Bar, then drove around the count-
side enjoying the nice "summe"
weather that we were having. Jim
and Mary Ann Schillo joined them
at the bar to visit with Mary Ann's
mother, Marion Wosepka, who was
among those enjoying the outing.
Christine Stewart celebrated her
91 st birthday Sunday. Her daugh-
ter Judy planned a party for her at
the Golden Valley Manor. Several
from the Golva area joined the res-
idents of the Manor to help her cel-
ebrate.
On Wednesday, Paul, Mary Lee
and Jason Schmitz were among the
many relatives and friends from
this area who attended the Funeral
Mass for Don Fries in Mott. Don,
who passed away on Saturday from
a long battle with cancer, was mar-
ried to Marge Schmitz from Golva.
Jeremy Schmitz and Jackee Van
Vleet from Bismarck were also at
the funeral.
Dick Knopp had back surgery
this past week. He is back at home
again. We wish him a speedy and
pain free recovery, and hope this
will be the last time he has back
problems.
Marie Kremers took her sister
Katy Zinsli to the emergency room
in Dickinson where she was hospi-
talized for a few days with pneu-
monia. We are happy to report that
she is back home again and seems
to be improving daily.
