tending a bituminous road confer
ence in Yellowstone National Park
this week returning Saturday.

him will be Thomas c. Vint, Wash
ington, D. c., chief design engineer
for the National Park Service.

for the annual road maintenance
inspection in the park.
Bids for bituminous paving of
9.689 miles of Sun highway from
Logan creek to Logan pass up the
Garden Wall have been rejected
as too high. Mclaughlin, Inc,
Great Falls, was low among the
three bidders, asking $448,113 at
the Bureau of Public Roads open
ing in Portland.
Plan now is to split the con-
struction into two or three con-
tracts. One would include rock
scaling and perhaps aggregate
stockpiling and the other surfac-
ing. A new call for bids is ex-
pected.

Sun Highwoy Goes
On DuY Shift

WEST GLACIER = September's
dash of winter for Montana re-
suited in Glacier National Parks
Going-to-the-Sun highway going
on day shift.
Traffic during the day finds the
Logan pass section, wet but clear.
At night it is icy.
Result is that highway will be
closed to through traffic from 4
pm, to 9 am, for the rest of the
season.
Monday and Tuesday saw the
pass area get snow drifts up to
two feet.
Keeping the road open were
Dave Selke, Andrew Stewart and
Robert Sagen operating plows,
and staying at Garden Wall road
camp. Also keeping an eye on the
situation is Clarence Bengston,
Glaciers general road foreman.
The pass section usually stays
open to traffic until we'll in Oc-
tober, but travel on the day shift
often starts by early October.
Checking stations at West Gla-
cier and st. Mary were manned by
rangers for the last day Sept. 80,
and no entry fee into the park is
now charged. Total traffic for the
season stands near 100000 and is
slightly below a year ago when
record 633, ,480 was reached. Last
with blue sky saw a total
of 1,466 visitors enter the park.

Grain Nearly off
FIufheud Fields

The Flathead's grain harvest of
1854 is considered over go per
cent completed. Weather last week
favored the harvest with cloudy
sky with threat of drizzle return
ing late Monday.
Most fields went into the har-
vest wet from near record Aug
ust precipitation. Result was wheat
with Is to II per cent moisture
content, too wet for safe keeping
in bins. Loss in dollars as a re-
suit of the delayed harvest and wet
grain was viewed as exceeding
$500,000, and from 20 to 80 per
cent of the crop.
Harold Tolley, Hungry Horse
News printer, had IL acres of
wheat harvested Monday after
noon by Troy Thacker that was
dry enough to be sold without
going through the dryers.
Further cool weather will see
the potato harvest underway. First
freezing temperatures over the
valley occurred Thursday morn
ing.

Group Recommends
On School Issue

KALISPELL = The Flathead
County Transportation committee
Tuesday evening recommended
that district 10 Canyon View
pay tuition and transportation for
four families to attend school in
Columbia Falls.
Three of the four families live
near the Blue Moon in district 10.
Members of the county trans
portation committee are superin-
tendents and board member rep
resentatives from over the county.
Supt. Dulane Fulton and F. P.
Fleming, district clerk, did not
vote on the question.
Canyon View has situation
with part of its students attending
school in Whitefish, part in Col
umbia Falls and the rest at the
school near the Stoltze mill.
On one hand when the students
do not attend school in their own
district there is loss of state ap-
portionment funds to the local
district. On the other whatever tut
ton is paid plus added state funds
does not aid the large district with
its problems of providing school
buildings. Whitefish brought this
point out at the meeting.

Whitefish Mon Buys
Lost Bureau Prefub

HUNGRY HORSE-Ross Arm
strong, Whitefish, was successful
bidder at $811.99 for the last Bu-
reau of Reclamation prefab houses
offered for sale. The former Bu-
reau photo lab brought the lowest
price of any of the so prefabs or
25 duplexes.
Other bidders were Wallace
Getz, Kalispell, $8O5.25; Arnold
A. Sandefur, Whitefish, $806.75
and Mrs. Earle Hollingsworth,
Martin City, $500, The prefab was
worn more than the others.
Flathead National Forest bought
two Bureau houses this month as
did the Bison range at Moiese.
Federal agencies have first chance
at surplus houses. This reduces
the number at Hungry Horse from
Sc to 81, and few more may go
next year.

Boord to. Discuss
Federal Grant

District 6 school board members
at their October meeting Tuesday,
are scheduled to discuss plans for
spending $130,207 received by the
district as construction money for
schools.
The grant under public law 815
is an additional payment on the
$640,000 allotment that was indi-
Gated at the time construction of
the new Columbia Falls grade
school was first planned and ap-
proved by the government. Federal
funds of $326,400 came through,
and with an additional $34,-
061 of district funds the new grade
school was erected. The full $780,
900 would have meant tearing
down Talbot school and the an
mex.
The board can proceed with
building more rooms on Columbia
Falls grade school, which pres
emily houses about half the 658
grade students. 1t can seek fed
eral approval of projects for con-
Struction of a new school at West
Glacier or elsewhere.
The board last summer budget
ed for construction of a new one
room school and teacherage at ES-
sex. Delaying construction plans
are land prices at Essex viewed as
too high.
The federal grant comes as a
result of Hungry Horse Dam con-
and cannot be spent at
Essex.
Further details on the federal
grant and its alternatives were
printed on page l in the last
Hungry Horse News. The federal
money cannot be spent for land
purchase any place.

To ST. Lawrence

However the upper road to the

Quoted seven days a week with
the May and September schedules
down to Saturdays and Sundays,
keeping the same eight-hour day.
So far this year total of 36,52S
adults have taken the 35-minute
trips through the powerhouse. In
addition there were 1,102 persons
in special educational and civic
groups and 1889 children under

Bod Rock IS sU
Heads Towurd Vote

AS it stands today, the proposed
Bad Rock school district annexa-
ton to district needs no further
action by the board in Columbia
Falls.
The proposed annexation pend
ing favor by Bad Rock voters was
approved last winter by the dis
trict 6 board, and the annexation
stands approved in the minutes
unless further action is taken.
Meanwhile Ed Schroeder, Flat
head county attorney, has ruled
that the Bad Rock petition re-
questing an election for annexa-
ton is legal. Schroeder conferred
on the question with the office of
Arnold H. Olsen, attorney general,
The Bad Rock board asked
Schroeder for a legal opinion.
AS soon as the Bad Rocks board
two oppose annexation and one
favors the issue-is satisfied as to
adequacy of the petition, it is to
be presented to Lulu Barnard,
county superintendent.
The new petition contains 40
names, compared to % names on
the old.
She likely will consult the dis
trict board again on the ques-
ton. If district board continues
to be willing to have annexation,
there is a time limit of an election
to be held between 20 and 80 days
after the district 6 approval.
Feb. 4 saw Bad Rock vote 81 to
54 favoring annexation.
After considerable sparring,
Judge Shea called in from Glas-
Cow ruled that the election was
Illegal. He based his decision on
the Bad Rock board not being
asked to determine the sufficiency
of signatures on the petition. After
the record vote turnout, it was
found that the nominating petit
ton did not contain 20 per cent
of the eligible voters as required
by law.
This fall saw 13 students enroll
at Bad Rock school, and parents of |
28 Bad Rock students request that |
their children attend school in |
Columbia Falls and pay tuition.
The issue appears headed for the
polls again in about month.
