Work on Libby
Golf Course
This Week
Tuesday evening about 40 golf
enthusiasts turned out at the site
of the Libby Golf course and by
their labors brought the course a
bit nearer completion. The course
is located seven miles south of Lib
by on highway No. 2 on land do
nated last year by the J. Neils Lbr.
Co. A start was made a year ago
by Bob Rubier who donated two
dozers for a days work and con
siderable clearing was started.
This year the golf committee has
had several turn-outs and done
quite a bit more clearing. Tuesday
evening considerable work
done in gathering up and burning
fallen trees, stumps, etc.
Leo Kyser donated a tractor shovel,
a weed burner and a crew of men
earlier this spring to get the work
started. The Libby Transfer do
nated gravel for a' turn off, and
Tuesday, furnished two trucks with
drivers for hauling debris. The
City of Libby furnished its patrol,
driven by John Baggs, with fuel
donated by the C & H Service
Station and a start was made in
leveling off the three fairways
which it is hoped will be ready
for use by this summer. Libby
Motors brought out their wrecker
for pulling stumps and furnished
three barrels of waste oil for start
ing fires. J. Noils furnished two
trucks to haul trash and the tables
which were used for serving an
enjoyable lunch prepared by Dr.
Roy Sherman and his civic im
provement committee.
With the aid of the above
tioned equipment and the willing
hands of the forty persons present
a good start was made and much
accomplished. All burning must be
done by May 1, so it is planned to
have another turnout Friday
ing beginning at 5:30 p. m. fol
lowed by another shift commencing
at 1:30 o'clock. The presence of
all interested is requested at either
or both of these gatherings. The
committee is trying to line up a
dozer before this time to get out
the stumps which at present are
the major items remaining to be
gotten out of the way. The com
mittee would also like to point out
that while this golf course is being
sponsored by the Chamber of Com
merce it is by ho means restricted
to members of this organization. It
was
men
even
a undertaking which when
completed will be a credit to the
community and membership will be
open to all citizens of Libby. Any
one interested is urged to start tak
ing an active part now. It will
take a considerable amount of work
to complete the course and the
more help which can be obtained
the sooner it will be ready for
use.

GREAT NORTHERN REVENUES
REACH ALL-TIME HIGH
St. Paul, Minn.—Gross revenues
of Great Northern Railway ? reached
an all-time high'* in 1948—21616
million dollars compared with 193
millions in 1947— F. J. Gavin, presi
dent, advises in the company's 60th
annual report to stockholders.
Mr. Gavin attributed the rail
way's largest gross income to the
record peacetime volume of freight,
moving under higher rates neces
sitated by continually increasing
wage and materials costs.
While last year's net income of
slightly more than 27M: millions
was 5 millions greater than in 1947,
Mr. Gavin emphasized the neces
sity for substantially increased
working capital because of higher
payrolls and greater costs of ma
terials, replacements and improve
ments.
The report says the 1948 dollar
bought 80 per cent as much Great
Northern freight service and 65 per
cent as much passenger service as
in 1938, although the same dollar
bought only 36 per cent as much
wheat and even smaller quantities
of beef cattle, hogs and butter as
it did ten years ago.
The railway's fixed charges of
IVz millions, in 1948 were the low
est in 50 years. Operating expenses
of slightly more than 162 millions
were nearly 19 millions above 1947,
due chiefly to higher wage and ma
terials costs.
The railway's directors last year
authorized expenditure of 37 mil
lion dollars for additional locomo
tives and freight and passenger cars,
including a fleet of new Empire
Builder passenger trains .

loveable drama, a story of "Aver

Brings Three-Co.
Chase to End
James L. Whalen, 20, wanted on
counts of grand larceny at Wallace,

This ended a manhunt which cov
ered three Montana counties, Lin
coln. Sanders, and Flathead.
Whalen described as armed and
dangerous, had two automatics,
.22 and a .32 in the car which he
had obtained by fraud. The guns
he had obtained by trading stolen
guns for them. All roads of Lin

afternoon.
Put Oui Wrong
In discussing the tourist trade
with Myron Tinker a few days ago,
Mr. vTinker told a representative
from The Western News tourists
vie^e coming through steadily and
in feöod numbers for the time of
the season until a few weeks ago
when this travel practically stop
ped without warning.
The tourist trade being highly
valued by service stations. Tinker
did a bit of checking, and two ex
amples of what he discovered
should prove enlightening to Libby
business organizations that wish to
oromote travel across U. S. No. 2
between Kalispell and Sandpoint.
Duahe Delzer before coming
home for Easter called for road
information in Sookanc. asking the
condition of U. S. 2 between Bon
ners Ferry and Troy. He was in
formed the road was impassable.
Doubting the accuracy of this in
formation Delzer called home,
I learned the road was open and
came through Bonners Ferry and
Troy. He reported the highwav in
as good condition as he had ever
seen it.
A Great Falls salesman was in
Libbv a few davs ago. Before leav
, nR Great Falls in thp
morning he
j asked for hichwav information and
,, as mformod that u. S . 2 was
r j osed between Kalispell and Sand

came in all during the earlv days
of the summer season of 1948. The'
writer, himself drove over good
roads to Kalispell one day last sum
mer and was informed that high
wav authorities in that town had
reported U. S, 2 in bad condition
between Kalispell and Libby, and
impassable between Troy and Bon- !
Travel was coming

Whitefish Club
Wins 5-Team
Rifle Match
Thirty-four riflemen competed
Sunday afternoon in shoulder to
shoulder shooting competition at
the Libby Rifle & Pistol Club's
new indoor range,
here from Eureka, Whitefish. Kalis
pell and Lakeside to enjoy the com
petitive shoot and inspect the new
range.
High honors for the match were
taken by Whitefish with Libby
placing second. Lakeside third, Kal
ispell fourth and Eureka fifth. The
match was fired in three positions,
offhand, sitting and prone,
highest individual score was shot
by D. Tibbits, Whitefish who shot
a 294 out of a possible 300. Second
high went to A. Dunagan, White
fish and B. Walker of Lakeside, the
men tying each other for a good
score of 284. Libby's high man was
Ted Polette, who shot a 282 score.
Owing to the fact Kalispell only
had four men shooting, the com
petitive shooting was limited to an
equal number of men from each
team. While the range has 10 tar
gets, the firing was done in groups
of nine, it taking from 1:30 till 4:00
o'clock p. m. for each of the 34
men to shoot their 30 rounds. Many
favorable comments were made by
the visitors who were unanimous
in declaring the Libby range the
best indoor range in Northwest
Montana.
The Libby club has asked The
Western News to express its ap
preciation to the ones who took part
and helped in various ways to
make the shoot a success.
It is not probable there will be
any more shoulder to shoulder
matches held in this section again
before fall but the club hopes to
hold many more matches here in
the future.
Following are the scores of the
various teams and others who shot
