PROPOSAL- I propose that we cease writing
anymore probing, pot shoting articles in the BUZZwhich are simplex or 1-way. I suggest we have further
discussion and questioning in the next Covenants
Owners meeting on the 20th- that can be duplex 2-way
conversations. The information offered by ALL sides of
the issues will be more meaningful.
APPRECIATION- I do want to say that I was
impressed with Merrill Frantzs responses. I acknowledge
and respect Frantz and Terry-Lees willingness to speak
out publically. Their Candid Talk is stand up, unlike
the little weasels threaten liable and slander and wont
speak of their thoughts, plans, and actions as they relate
to St Marie. (Aint that A HOOT!)
MAIN FOCUS- My main focus is the question asked
over and over: DEFINE the DOLLARS, can you IN
PERSON answer that? What is your simple BUSINESS
PLAN as a developer/investor as well as a Village
BUSINESS PLAN as an ASPIRING LEADER of the
Village Association? Need help? ....look at the current
SMCA and VILLAGE association budgets that are
OPEN TO ALL. Simple business plans with associated
specified planned work, planned expenses, percentages
of planned monies spent (including INSURANCE
COVERAGE on all properties), and balance sheet with
reserve funds. All necessary for sustained work to
maintain the condo units ..... Defined Obligated
Dollars disclosed- no exemptions, no exceptions, no
loop holes for anyone.
COUNTY TAX RECORDS- Uncollected taxes in St
Marie as of 6-6-14:
1. Kelly, SMDC, VPI- 84 condos- $665,000
2. EMS, GTMS- 152 condos- $206,000
3. NSM-Mitchell- 370 condos- $79,000
4. Bakken-Base Exchange- $5,000
5. DTM- 133 condos- $2,300
TOTAL- 740 condos- $957,300
NOTE: It appears that DTM is in the best shape
and possibly capitalized to do some DEVELOPING.
As long as they DONT bother other owners in ANY
way, do whatever they want with THEIR property and
money- I WISH THEM WELL.
Again, I will CEASE FIRE on my writins
for awhile....until after some meetings and more
information comes out.

But, as her Daddys trainer, she didnt miss any trips to
the big tracks, either. And Dr. Pat, who made it to the finish
line in first place more often than not with Louises guidance,
continued to win, place and show.
From the Regina Leader Post, July 30, 1954, with the
headline, DR. PAT SPRINGS SURPRISE: A bay three-yearold that came out of nowhere (the good people of Scobey,
Montana, might object to the expression) took the spotlight
at the Regina Exhibition Racing Meet Thursday by virtue of a
great photo-finish victory in the $1,200 Queen City Handicap.
With a third-place finish in the $1,000 Saskatchewan Handicap
on Monday, the colt, Dr. Pat has made his only two starts on the
Western circuit notable ones after getting in some practice licks
at the country fairs...
... Dr. Pats fine victory, a new track record in the mile and
one-eighth third race, and double-figure payoffs in ever race
made Thursdays program a memorable one.
Dr. Pat kept on capturing headlines with exciting wins.
Louises mother, Ann Halverson, responded to a Canadian
newspaper while her husband was on a 28-day racing tour:
Heres some more dope on Dr. Pat...
Irvin calls me every Sunday and writes once a week.
In the last race Dr. Pat ra he had $10 worth of tickets on him
which returned $57. He asked me if he should sell Dr. Pat so
he isnt gone horse racing for a month at a time. I asked him
if he wanted to sell him and he said no, not very bad. So I said
keep him. We can run this spread without you for awhile, but
hurry home. He expects to start both horses twice more and
then they will be returning home.
Dr. Pat continued to be a major force in 1955. From the
Daniels County Leader: That Dr. Pat is still runnin like hell!
Owned by the Irvin Halverson family, ranchers in the Peerless
community, the four-year-old gelding has been seeing lots of
action this summer. He has six victories in 13 starts, which is
substantially more than adequate for any participant in the
broomtail activities.
Considering that the competition was at Winnipeg,
Regina and most recently at Calgary, Alberta, carrying the
colors of this county and the Scobey Saddle Club, we can
see where if it were like football and basketball teams of
comparable skill some places, there would be a caravan of cars
and torchlights from here to the border upon the homecoming
of the Halversons and their winged steed...
... Those Canadians have been getting more enthused
each year about the ponies, and this season its a horse from
Daniels County thats really setting them on their ears. Saw
Irvin yesterday who reports Dr. Pat was a winner again last
Saturday at Calgary for 7 furlongs on a heavy track, carrying 11
pounds of lead bringing the big geldings season record on
the Western Canadian Circuit to seven wins in 14 starts, and
his track earnings this year to more than $7,000.
All in all, Dr. Pat was a very impressive investment for the
Halverson family, and it was a pretty little lady named Louise
that got Dr. Pat off to the races in grand fashion.
