Testimony at the inquest brought
out the following circumstances.
and Christensen, accom-
panied by Orvin Finsaas, had gone
deer hunting east of the Yellow
9tlAle River, and a short distance
north of the Sidney bridge, early
Friday morning. They had hunted
along the high ground and then
went down along the river bot
tom, where they sighted a deer.
The three spread out in a line,
with Christensen in the middle,
FinSaaS on the left, and Miller on
the right, and proceeded to Stalk
the deer. Apparently the ground
which Miller chose, was easier to
travel than that of his two COM
panions, and he got ahead of them,
a distance of about 100 yards.
Christensen saw movement in the
rush, and thinking it was the
deer they were stalking, fired,
striking Miller, who was not
wearing bright clothing. Finsaas
ran to a nearoy farm, where he
found Richard Riggs of Sidney,
doing chores for friends who were
away. They summoned am am
buiance, and Riggs returned with
him to the scene. Miller died in
the ambulance enroute to the
Sidney Hospital. Game Warden
DON Berg conducted am investi-
cation at the scene.
James Donald Miller was borr

Governor Nutter, as the fea-
tured speaker at the luncheon
meeting gave a very straight from
the shoulder report on his admin
istration to date. In the question
and answer period, the Governor
was asked to explain his position
in the proclamation of u. N. Day.
Governor Nutter stated that as he
felt that such a proclamation was
tantamount to endorsing the U.N.,
he could not conscientiously do so.
After stating various reasons be-
hind this feeling, the Governor
also said that he would be the first
to back a group who he felt were
doing a good job of preserving
world justice and peace, but that
he felt the U.N. was failing in this
regard.

Chaffin then addressed the group
on the foundation program giving
the history of the various legis-
lative acts and problems that had
been encountered in getting them
passed. He stated that the found
alton was a means of financing
and not a level of education. The
program is designed to euUaliZe
the tax burden and the cost of
education over the state. He be-
lieves that Montana is doing a
good lob and that we should con-
