1850 Brought Two
New Businesses To
Browning Area

The year 1860 brought two new
businesses to Browning - the
Coin-o-Matic self-service laundry
and the Park Bowling Lanes,
about seven new residences on
government square and a half
million dollar addition to the
Blackfeet hospital.
One business went out, the
Browning Shoe Repair and in
its new location gained a new tel
evision shop, the TV Center
A recreation area was built at
the Methodist church.
The Two Medicine Co. moved
from its quarters back of the Tri-
bal Store to a new building south
on the highway towards the Lee
giOn Club.
Bob SERVER added a new sec
ton to his Museum of Montana
Wildlife that will soon be open
to tourists.
The management of the Hag-
erty Hotel and Bar changed
hands from Wright HagertyS to
Mr.. and Mrs. Edward ALBERT.
The Lions Club placed tables
at the Museum of the Plains In
dian grounds for the use of tour,
lists.
The old city park has now been
abandoned and plans are under
way to make a parking lot of the
area.
The year 1860 appears to mark
the birth of an idea for a new
public park. The Lions Club has
initiated proposals for such a
new park to be situated either
at the area west of the tribal Of
flee or at some area along the
highway towards East Glacier
Park, somewhere near the snow
shed over the Great Northern
Railway tracks.

The shooting, according to a
statement to authorities from
Ray Trafford who fired the shots,
stemmed from an argument and
fight at the Trafford home short
ly before 6 am. when the two
wounded men and two other per
sons entered the home and asked
for drinks. One OF the party,
a juvenile whom Trafford knew
to be under age, was refused the
drinks and then put out of the
house by Trafford. Upon return
ing to the house TraffOrd was
attacked by the two men who
fled when TraffOrd went for his
high powered rifle.
According to the story as told
to authorities by TraffOrd, he
fired three shots at their car
to scare them. All three shots
hit the car, one penetrating the
gas tank and the other two into
the car body, one striking Black
man in the back and the other
hitting Butterfly in the leg.
Trafford repeatedly called the
city police at 600 and reported
the incident
Upon arrival of police officer,
Clayton Cobell, Trafford gave his
story and Cobell followed the
trail of gasoline about a ~blOck
and a half where he found the
car with Butterfly and the two
other occupants. Blackman had
already been taken to the
U.SP.H.S. hospital by Darrell
Blackman.
After notifying Chief of Police
Bernie Wilson, who with officer
Dan Gillian, took Butterfly to
the hospital, Cobell returned to
the Trafford residence and took
Trafford to the police stat p
and later the case was ttrne3
over to special officer, Rankin
Brown.
The next day Trafford was
charged with assault with a dead
ly weapon and taken to Cut Bank
where he was lodged in the
county Jail until Wednesday when
he was released on $1,000 bond
after appearing before Justice
of the Peace Alex Hathereu in
Cut Bank.
Latest report from Great Falls
states that Blackman's injury is
not as serious as was first pre-
sumed and that he is out of i'm
mediate danger. Butterfly is still
hospitalized here where he is
being treated.
According to local authorities,
the FBI is investigating the case
to complete details and either
verify or discount several con-
flicting stories.

a MINUTE
WITH MI

We Just talked with county al
torrey Dan WEIGH and inquired
as to any late developments in
the shooting case that took place
here early Monday morning Dan
says to classify ii in the don't
worry" department as the fed
eral authorities are investigating
il thoroughly TO decide whether
or not il comes under their juris-
dictiOn. II il does, they will take
il 10 federal court: If not, il will
be handled by the county. There
are a lot OF angles and a lot Of
circumstances involved that must
be run down, but il will be han
died properly. he assured US.
sHs
While the shooting caused a lot
OF excitement and expert advice
was given over practically every
cup of coffee, we look forward
TO far more excitement and {
thing Of general interest to the
cn:irc community. If not the
state.
Possibly some of our readers
will recall that in this column
we have several times predicted
an oil well would be brought in
near the old Morning Gun loca-
ton Due. possibly. to our sew
eral predictions and insistence
that we are sitting on top of an
untapped pool, we have occasion
ally been asked why we don't
carry more news about the oil
operations
Well. the answer is simple:
There just hasn't been anything
new or startling. We could re-
hash the same old story. as is
often done. but our readers
wouldn't be any better informed
than they are now, and they
would soon get tired of re-read-
ing the same old stuff.
Now is the time. we believe, to
give out what we have Sifted
from the many reports and ru-
mOrs There Is oil and gas az
the Great Northern location near
the old Morning Gun and in
productive quantity. We believe
this will be verified this spring
when operations are resumed.
We Understsnd the gas potential
will be frem 10 million 10 100
million feet and that our predie.
ton will come true. "A new pool
has been tapped"
Don't get all excited. Our word !
is no guarantee but we will
take reasonable" bets TO back
up our statement
Just say. a little birdie told
US"
Somehow Christmas just didn't
seem like Christmas this year
what with no snow. 4 call from
Wisconsin relatives gives the
same story.
However. Santa did get here
and he was rather generous. He
brought a jet-lOad of fine gifts
for all of US but left instruc-
lions TO pay the bill within Sol
days because he isn't sure what
the American buck is going to-
be worth after inauguration.
Seems everyone is a little wor-
ried about the buck now days!

And, Of course, we are looking
forward TO the new year. regard
less of how Santa feels. We don't
know exactly why we are look
ing forward to il, but we are.
The last year wasn't the worst
we have seen. nor was il the best,
but guess it's only natural to
look forward TO some improve
ment. Business was good as a.
whole. our health wasn't too bad

managed to pay our taxes and

are still broke. That is the story
of 1860 for US Now what?

Right after he was appointed
to the Senate District Com

Hartke took a walk around
Washington and started ask

The Indiana Senator has

The Senate District Commit

hearings next year on the city's

staff will investigate the urban

preliminary hearings.
Senator Hartke started it all

Injunction Asked
For Restraint of
Glen Echo Guards

A hearing has been sched-
uled for 2 pm. Monday in a
Baltimore Federal court on a
request by Negro demonstrators
at Glen Echo Amusement Park
for an injunction to restrain
park guards.
The Negroes contend it is il
legal for the guards to use
their authority as deputy sher-
ifs to preserve segregation at
the park.
Since demonstrations began
June 80 at Glen Echo, the
guards repeatedly have ar
rested Negro pickets who at
tempted to enter the segre-
gated facility.
Defendants in the injunction
suit are Francis j. Collins, head
park guard; Luke j. Bennett,
Montgomery County sheriff
and the two corporations which
own and operate the park.
Representative Porter, Demo-
crat of Oregon, yesterday in
vited his fellow congressman
to join him in picket line to
protest segregation at the park.
In a letter to his colleagues,
Mr.. Porter said he plans to
take a brief turn on the picket
line next Wednesday night and
hoped others would join him.
