G. N. Employees Pick City for 'Vetville'
II Acre North
Plot Bought for
I28 Families

Columbia Falls will become the
home for an additional 1913 families
as. the result of establishment on the
city's north side of the Great North
ern "Vetville for Vets"
For year this Great Northern
employees group has been attempting
to purchase suitable land in the
Flathead valley for their suburb.
They wanted location near city
facilities, convenient to hunting,
fishing and the Glacier Park recre-
ational areas, and yet within whistle
distance of the main line trains, all
of which stop here.
Whitefish Land Too High
At first they attempted to buy
land near Whitefish. The property
they wanted was held at too high a
price. Whitefish lost out. Local men,
D. w. Greene and Bernard Tracey,
contacted them, and Saturday, Con-
ductor E. M. Boyles, Minot, their
secretary, completed the transaction
for 70 acres of land across from the
Plum Creek lumber company.
The new plot will be divided into
half block homesteads and center
around a lubbock civic area. The
big lots will be assigned members at
a value received" price of approx
imately $500.

Mr.. Raaen said the city would do
everything it could to make the
railroaders welcome, and Mr.. Mar
antette commented that Columbia
Falls felt honored in the Great Nor
thern employees picking location
near the city. He added "they chose
a good spot in an ideally located
outdoor area"

cludeS Great Northern employees
from Minnesota through Montana is
II. CT Jimmy" Kreis, conductor,
Havre; other officers are A. A. "Son-
ny" Barke, yardmaster, Williston,
and Levi Nelson, switch foreman.
Members of the association are eth
er retired or eventually to-be-retired
railroaders. Many of them will live
in Columbia Falls the year around;
others will have summer homes here.
In writing to members of the as
sociatidn, Mr. Boyles referred to
Columbia Falls being within walk
ing distance of before-breakfast trout
fishing; the proximity of Glacier
Park; and the beautiful mountain
setting. MIR

Wildcats to Tackle
Tough Libby Team

Columbia Falls Wildcats are in q
tough spot. In their first home game
of the season, they tackle Libby
Friday at pm. But they'll have the
town behind them, and packed
bleachers as business firms close fol
the event.
Libby became the heralded team
of early season western Montana

Glass A Kaispell team 20 to 0. Col
umbia Falls, which has had excellent
prospects of becoming good team
hasn't found itself yet They were
trounced by Choteau 26 to 0, Sep
TENDER IA, and then last Saturday,
beaten by the Kalispell Reserves, 6
to O.
But there is a story behind last
Saturdays game. The locals made
Il first downs to Kalispell's three,
and twice the local boys were within
three yeards of their opponents
goal. It was Kalispell, however, who
scored two minutes before the end
Libby's team is heavier, though
Columbia Falls has some big boys
with Kenneth Cummings weighing
205 pounds, Ted Sloan, 1875, and Ell
ton Johnson, 40.
The Lincoln county school is OPP
imistic about their game here. Per-
haps so optimistic that well-sup-
ported Columbia Falls team in their
first home game of the season will
give western Montana football fans
to really talk about.
Tickets for the game are at last
years prices: 40 cents for adults, 80
cents for high school students, and
20 cents for the grade pupils.

Fire Department
To Start Fund
Drive Friday

A iness-to-business and house
toulouse canvass of the entire city
and adjacent area will be started
Friday by Columbia Falls volunteer
fire department.
They need money to buy ladders,
hoses and other fire-fighting equip
ment. Last winter through dances,
the department raised $1,000. The
War Assets administration in August
froze a new truck for the city but
there's still the matter of buying es-
sential gear, and paying the balance
on the unequipped truck.
At a town meeting Tuesday night
around the barrel stove in the fire
hall, it was decided to solicit the
support of every family who benefits
from Columbia Falls volunteer fire
fighting activity. Chief Boots Scho-
enberg says that for IS years, the
department has protected the town
and vicinity without asking for dona-
tions. Now it must purchase new
equipment in order to do its job.
Fighting fires with 1912 Thomas
FLYER and a 1929 Model A chemical
truck and other equally antiquated
equipment is too much for the boys,
added Boots
A population increase in the city of
80 per cent in the past year, and the
building up of outlying communities
has made fire-fighting bigger job
in Columbia Falls The Is men who
give their time in training for fight
ing fire, want help from the homes
and businesses they are protecting.
