The Lady Bucs' season came to a
close with two games in a row
against Hazen.
On Feb. 13, the Buccaneers trav-
eled to Hazen. At the end of the first
half, the Buccaneers were up 30-16.
The Hazen Bison did outscore the
Buccaneers in the second half, but
they did not gain enough ground to
win. When the final buzzer sounded,
the score was 55-46, ending in a
Buccaneer win. Two varsity players
from Beach scored in the double dig-
its that night. Junior Abby Wilbelmi
scored 17 points, and junior Breenna
Davidson ended the night with a total
of 14 points for the Buccaneers.
A few days later, the Lady Bucs
headed back to Hazen for the first
round of the Region 7 Girls Basket-
ball Tournament. Hazen, ranked No.
8 in the region, hosted Beach, ranked
No. 9. Due to injuries and influenza,
the Buccaneers only had eight play-
ers able to play on Feb. 17. At the end
of the game, the Buccaneers lost 49-
75, ending the 2017 basketball season
for the Lady Bucs. Hazen will move
on inthe tournament, and was to play
against Bowman County, ranked No.
1 in Region 7, on Feb. 20, at Dickin-
son Trinity High School. The cham-
pionship game for Region 7 will be
played on Feb. 23, starting 25 min-
utes after the third-place game ends.
Valentine's Day saw another
game played by the Beach Bucca-
neers boys basketball team. Travel-
ing to Dickinson to play against the
Trinity Titans, the Buccaneers knew
they had a hard game to play, as the
Titans are ranked No. 1 in the region
and have a record of 18-2. Giving the
Titans a bit of a scare, the Bucca-
neers jumpedto an early lead of 7-4.
The Buccaneers lost the lead, ending
the first quarter down 14-27. The
final score was 46-85, with a win for
the Titans. Freshman Gage Swanson
was the lead scorer of the Buccaneers
that game, scoring 20 points.

original clip is always preserved,"
said Larvick. "This year we're ex-
cited to begin our oral history pilot
program, "Homespun Histories."
We'll be interviewing grantees about
their film collection and family and
community history. Those oral his-
tory interviews will also be available
online and at screening events."
Larvick's grandparents taught in
North Dakota until 1957 when they
moved to Oregon, where they taught
until their retirements. A1 Larvick
was an athletic director at Valley City
High School from the mid-1940s
until 1957, and before that at numer-
ous high schools around North
Dakota. He also was a basketball and
football coach and driver's education
instructor. Grandmother Ethel Lar-
vick taught reading and English
classes. She also coached some girl's
basketball teams early in her career.
A1 Larvick was given an 8mm
film camera in the early 1950s. His
son Rockne purchased the camera so
A1 Larvick could film basketball and
football practices to help with coach-
ing and game strategy. "My grandfa-
ther used the camera for those
purposes, but ended up filming much
more," said Kirsten Larvick. "He re-
ally fell in love with recording family
and community and did so for the
rest of his life."
The ALCF if based in New York
City because that's Kirsten Larvick's
residence and where she incorporated
the organization.

elude some aspects of regional or
state history. Milo Thompson said
construction of the Garrison Dam,
parades, rodeos in Wibaux and Dick-
inson are among what was captured.
There also is some footage from his
time as a student at forestry school in
Bottineau.
A few of the films were previ-
ously preserved through the effort of
Milo Thompson's daughters Lindsey,
Alexa and Laura, who had them con-
verted to CDs. Laura also noticed
that the State Historical Society of
North Dakota was telling of the
availability ALCF grants, for which
the family decided to apply. Annu-
ally, the ALCF makes a North
Dakota grant and a national grant.

Angelika Harutyunyan said Armenia is a very old nation, dating all the way
back to the 2500s BC. She attributed this fact to the reason Armenians are more
traditional. "Here in America people are more independent, and that's what I like
here. People are more open and strangers are talking with each other like close
friends."
Kapan and Beach are quite different in their types of school systems as well.
In Armenia, students can't choose their schedule, and all 17 classes must be
taken. Their class schedule is different every day, but the same every week.
Like many other schools, seniors have their classes only with seniors and no one
else. After graduation, students have exams from six classes. Graduates choose
one from science, one from foreign languages, and four others.
Harutyuwan participates in FBLA at Beach High School, and is planning on
joining the track and field team this spring. Her favorite class at Beach is art. She
shared that she didn't know she had a love for art before coming to America.
Harutyunyan will be heading back to Armenia in June. While she will miss
many things about the U.S. when she leaves, she said she will miss her host
family most of all.
"They became my second family," said Harutyunyan. "I proudly can say
that I have two moms and two dads. Also I'll miss my friends here. Hopefully
I'll have a chance to see them again."
• Also known as Choke, Chaiwat Buayai is from Khonkean, Thailand, and he
is staying with Bob and Kelli Allen. He participates in FBLA at Beach High
School, and is planning on joining the track and field team this spring.
Buayai's favorite class at Beach High School is world history. One of the
biggest differences between American and Thailand schools is that students in
Thailand cannot choose their classes.
When asked what he will miss most from the U.S. when he returns home,
i ~i~ ~ Buayai said he will miss friends and teachers.
Mei Ohmura, a foreign exchange student from Iwamizawa, Japan, is also
staying with the Maychrzak family while attending Beach High School.
Her favorite subject at Beach High is nutrition and foods. She loves work-
ing together with other students to make different dishes. Ohmura also plans to

The school style in Japan is much stricter than in America. Eating, drinking
and listening to music in class are all prohibited. All students bow to the teacher
before and after class. In Japan, bowing is a gesture of respect.
