Doodle pride
Conner Honeyman, left, and siblings Jacob and Andee on May 3 pose in front of a large-scale
version of the 'Doodle 4 Google' design that he made. Conner, a third grader in Markie Toso's
class at DeMores Elementary in Medora, and a son of Dustin and Erika, is the North Dakota win-
ner of the design contest; He received certificates, a plaque, a bag and shirt and a computer. Stu-
dents were asked to create a doodle based on the question: 'What inspires me?' Honeyman
said he was inspired by field trips: 'All the years in school rve been on field trips and I have
had fun on field trips.' His drawing is now in a national competition for a $30,000 scholarship and
a $50,000 technology package for his school or a non-profit organization. The public can vote
to help decide the winner at doodles.google.com until 1 a.m Saturday, May 19. (Photo by

Baesler said in the future, the
committee will set aside two calen-
dar months for North Dakotans to
submit Board of Higher Education

or incomplete applications. The ap-
