‘He is just so positive’ Community turns out for Killdeer teen, as he recovers from attack By Bryan Gallegos DC Herald Publisher

DUNN CENTER – Two weeks ago, Dakota Brekke didn’t know if he was ever going to see out of his right eye. He was brutally attacked in Turtle Lake and suffered severe facial injuries that affected his vision and required surgery. But his outlook on Saturday was much more clear after about a hundred people attended and participated in a fundraiser for the 2016 Killdeer High School graduate at DC Pub & Grub here. He was showered with happy high-fives, hearty backslaps, and tender hugs as hordes of people helped raise funds to help defray Brekke’s rapidly rising medical expenses. “I feel greatly appreciated and cared for,” Brekke quietly said, as people came from all around the area to be with him. “A couple weeks ago I couldn’t see because I couldn’t open my eye.” But what he saw Saturday, the people with their genuine well-wishes and warm smiles, brought tears that temporarily affected his vision. He blinked a couple of times to

Some came from across the street and other from across the state to support the soft-spoken Brekke. Austin Freborg, a 15-year-old freshman at See Positive Page 4

trees,” said Bogers. The firefighters were also concerned about a gasoline tank near the shop. Fire had actually spread to grass under the tank, but firefighters were able to keep the danger from escalating. They cooled the tank down and then extinguished the fire under the tank, Bogers said. Two vehicles that were parked outside the shop were also saved, Bogers said. But the shop and contents inside the shop were a total loss. Among other things, there were a couple of vehicles inside the shop, as well as a boat, several all-terrain vehicles, tools, welder and tanks, tires and oil inside the building, he said. The fire started inside the building and authorities are still trying to figure what started the fire. The firefighters battled the blaze well into the night, leaving the scene at 12:30 Sunday morning. They used three tankers of water during the incident, totaling about 25,000 gallons of water, Bogers said.

A fire destroyed a ranch workshop and everything in it at 8819 1st St. NW near Halliday on Saturday night. The shop belonged to John Rhode. There were no injuries in the fire and the damage was limited to the shop and some bales of hay, said Halliday Volunteer Fire Department Chief Joey Bogers. Authorities received the call about 7:20 p.m. and firefighters from Halliday and West Dunn departments in Dunn Center and Killdeer arrived on the scene about 7:35 p.m. But when the fire-fighting force – which included 18 firemen, six trucks and grass units from the three departments – arrived, the shop was already engulfed, Bogers said. The firefighters, along with neighbors and friends, took defensive tactics to keep the blaze from spreading to the house, which was about 50 yards from the shop, and surrounding vegetation. “We concentrated on keeping the fire out of the

KMM supplies parts for the F-15 fighter. The deal has been awaiting approval for more than two years. Its supporters say the three countries could buy fighters elsewhere if the delay continues.

Thousands protest at Cannonball River By Jennifer Strange

For the Dunn County Herald Flags and banners from over 90 Native American nations were draped on a fence along Highway 1806 north of Standing Rock Sioux Reservation Sunday afternoon. The flags have been delivered from all over the country to symbolize tribal solidarity with the Standing Rock Sioux’s resistance to the Dakota Access Pipeline project. Over 1,500 people are now camped on the shores of Cannonball River as part of the pipeline resistance movement. Demonstrators say sinking an oil pipeline

beneath the Missouri River is against treaty agreements, threatens water safety and compromises the long-term welfare of land, animals and people. A steady stream of Native and non-Native visitors stops at the flag parade. Some search out their tribe’s seal, some take photos, some walk the long and colorful path in quiet contemplation. Here, Killdeer resident Terry Moore stands near a cement barricade that blocks access to the pipeline construction site. “I feel honored to be here, to witness this gath-

ering,” Moore said. “The sense of inclusiveness is palpable.” In the background is college student Nathan Manuel (Tohono O’odham). Manuel traveled from Salt Lake City to be part of what he called a historic moment in tribal unity. “I brought with me prayers to protect Mother Earth,” he said. “Protecting our water should not be a crime.” Pearl Tiger (Standing Rock Sioux) has been at the camp off and on for several weeks. She has met new friends from other bands of the Sioux tribe and people from distant nations while walking the parade of flags. “The flags represent the convergence of nations as one,” she said. “The water is uniting us.”

Turtle Lake, drove 200 miles with two other friends to support Brekke. “I like being around him,” said Freborg. “He’s just so positive,” added 20-year-old Shelby Olson, also of Turtle Lake, who has known Brekke for nearly a decade. “He bounces back.” Kind words, ones that brought a smile to Brekke. That’s his style. He wasn’t smiling, however, on July 23. He and his girlfriend, Brookelynn Larkin, were visiting Brekke’s family when his life seemed to be turned upside down. Brekke, his sister, and Larkin were walking in town. Brekke’s sister was playing Pokemon, a popular electronic game on her phone when the trio

walked past a group of five boys in a parking lot. Brekke knew the boys, including a couple with whom he had some runins. They allegedly began harassing Brekke and the girls and reportedly shoved the two girls. Brekke said they tried to induce him into a fight. After they shoved the girls, Brekke said he stepped forward and put his hand up to stop the boys from shoving the girls. Brekke said he was hit by a punch that he didn’t see coming and another boy jumped into the fray. The other three boys watched. “I started to cover my head and knealt down to make it harder to hit me,” he said. “I have no idea how many times I got hit.” Brekke’s sister called 911 and the boys stopped and ran away. Brekke just wanted to go home. However, home was in the same direction in which the attackers went.

They had to walk past the boys, and one of them allegedly asked Brekke “are you back for more.” Shortly after he arrived at his mom’s house, the ambulance showed up. And soon after that, the police arrived. As he was receiving medical attention, officers interviewed the trio as to what happened,. Brekke was taken to the hospital and the two attackers were later arrested. After their preliminary hearing, the attackers were confined to their homes until their upcoming court case. He suffered a cheek bone fracture, fractured temporal bone and right eye socket was shattered. For a week, he couldn’t open his eye, until he had surgery in Bismarck, where doctors put in a metal plate on the cheek bone. Now comes the rehab, which should go into early October. And the waiting, which will seem like years,

he chuckled. Brekke can’t work – he has a job with Charging Eagle Enterprise – and he can’t ride his motorcycle. Brekke has been competing in motocross for the past two years. He is currently ranked in the top three in the state in 250C and Open Class. This summer he’s competed and done very well in events in Bismarck, Mandan, Dickinson and Jamestown. “I can’t put a helmet on because I can’t put any pressure on my cheek,” he said. Brekke expects to be cleared, he said with a smile, on Oct. 3. He flashed that smile, that positive outlook, even after all that he went through. “I’m mad, but at the same time, I’m not because I’m going to be able to do the same things I would before,” he said. Larkin, beaming with pride, shook her head in amazement at the matu-

Rest of the Story The Rest of the Story, editorial, by Pat J. Merriman: On July 27, 2016, all charges against Baltimore Police officers in the death of Freddie Gray were dismissed. Quietly and with nary a peep. So, to recap, the officers had nothing to do with the death of this miscreant from the jump. That didn’t stop the Obama Administration from “releasing a blistering report of racial bias” at BPD. The NY Times reported that the dismissal is “closing the book on one of the most closely watched police prosecutions in the nation without a single conviction — and few answers about precisely how the young man died.” Or, why it was ever charged either! As if there EVER was anything to debate, “National Guard troops rumbled through the streets, with Baltimore under curfew and residents tense after looting and riots that broke out…” And, the prattling of Barrack Obama as he “pleaded for racial healing after five police officers in Dallas were gunned down by a black Army veteran.” Mr. President you caused, or contributed to cause, this carnage by pretending, despite overwhelming evidence to the contrary, that there was any truth to this mob’s rambling in the first place! And, to states attorney Marilyn Mosby, you violated your oath,

By Pat Merriman

persecuted innocent officers and, the fact that you still hold office leads to the inevitable conclusion that race trumps justice in Baltimore, Maryland. And, in an even more telling example of elitism, Mosby even brought her heel down on the juries who rejected her claims, “Without real substantive reforms to the current criminal justice system, we could try this case 100 times and cases just like it, and we would still end up with the same result.” Translation: you jurors are just too stupid. The fact remains the innocent walked free so Mosby should stop trying to blame the system for her own incompetence. The blood on her hands belies what my contemporary Bob McCulloch had the guts to do in Ferguson, Missouri. Let the grand jury hear the evidence in lieu of simply filing charges to grandstand for the media. Attorney Ivan Bates nails it, “You can get a conviction against the police, whether a bench trial or a jury trial, if you do an investigation but, if you

quickly want to automatically say that the officers are guilty because they’re the police, then you perpetrate that fear that’s already there and that’s dividing our country.” Oh, and FYI, the judge who tossed her cases? An African-American who didn’t let race cloud his judgment. The Times continues, “even in a majority-black city, with a black mayor and a black prosecutor…The case featured a black victim and had a black judge. And three of the six officers are black, as is the defense lawyer who spoke on their behalf Wednesday.” So, at the end of the day, justice prevailed, race didn’t play any part but, dead officers still littered the streets across this nation in the name of this fake cause. I guess the only good news is that Baltimore Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake has declined to seek reelection. And, the Black Lives Matter candidate DeRay McKesson also lost his bid to replace her. The only way to stop this nonsense is, indeed, at the polls. But, don’t forget, ex-Mayor RawlingsBlake “called the roll that resulted in the nomination of Hillary Clinton for president.” Yep, she’s still the Secretary of the Democratic National Committee. Lest we forget, this is a national disgrace not just a blight on the city of Baltimore.

Hello, As ranchers, we spend a lot of time around horse people. Whether it is rodeo friends, ranch friends, or horse traders. Growing up, horse sales were something that you didn’t miss. If you were a young cowboy with a saddle, you could hang around a horse sale and make pretty good money riding horses through the ring for their owners. Or as a young cowboy, you might be able to pick up a horse that you could start riding and turn a little profit after a month or two. And you also had a chance to see some great horse traders or hear stories about horse trades. One of my favorites was the rancher who was holding a production sale. The first colt that came through was selling pretty high. The owner stopped the sale, and announced, “This colt isn’t worth near this much money”” He then proceeded to give the

By Dean Meyer colt to a young boy who had bid on the colt early but had quit bidding when it got too high! The rest of the rancher’s colts sold like they were the last colts in the world. At Ekalaka a couple weeks ago heard a story about a guy that was selling a horse. The potential buyer went along for a ride to try the horse out. As they were leaving the yard, the horse stubbed a toe and stumbled. The owner looked over and said, “He’s never done that before!” A little later the horse stumbled again, “Damn! He’s never done that before!” Just as they rode into the yard the horse flat out

stumbled, fell completely down, and dumped the rider off. The owner calmly looked down at the once potential buyer and calmly announced, “That is what he usually does!” Then there was the guy that was going to try this horse that was for sale. The owner, being more honest than many horse traders, told him this might not be the horse for him. “He may buck. He spooks at his tail. If you walk up on him unexpected, he may kick you. But if you can get by him for a couple hours, he’s a pretty dang good ranch horse and will put in a days work.” The buyer looked the horse over and asked, “If I ride him hard for a month or two, or maybe a year or so, do you think my wife or son would be able to use him?” “Absolutely not”, the rancher said. “Good,” the buyer exclaimed! “I’ll take him.”

That's Life ROUND BUNKER, MCINTOSH COUNTY, ND— Greetings from McIntosh County, where we are are fearfully clinging to our guns and religion. With a Native American protest a mere 158 miles away, we are on Major Super High Alert, as declared by Governor George Armstrong Dalrymple. If we were still on the Homeland Security color code system, it would be Trump Orange. Or maybe, Baboon Butt Red. The point is, this is a major crisis. Thousands of Native Americans and Leonardo DiCaprio have amassed on the shore of the Missouri River to protest a pipeline being built by Texas oil barons to transport oil pumped by other other Texas oil barons. You would think this would be an upgrade, because instead of exploding oil trains, we could have exploding pipelines. Progress! But no, here come the nattering nabobs of negativism. Some of these pessimists complain this pipeline will eventually leak. First, they complained about exploding oil trains and now they are complaining about leaks—like the one in South Dakota in April, or the 865,000 gallons Tesoro spilled in 2013, near Tioga. But I’m an optimist. Some people see a leak. I see free oil. Practice makes perfect and supporters say this 30-inch pipeline will be so safe you won’t believe it. It will be the safest pipeline in the world. They build the best pipelines. Believe me. It will be so safe, you’re going to get tired of how safe it is. It will be so safe, they should put a daycare in it. Originally, they were going to run the pipeline under the river, north of Bismarck. When the One Percenters there learned just how safe this pipeline was going to be, they thought, “There is no way we should keep all this safety to ourselves.”

By Tony Bender

It was moved south, close to the Standing Rock Indian Reservation, so the Sioux tribe could be safe. For a while, officials thought the throngs were there to admire the awesomeness of Texas technology. Eventually, they figured out from the signs—“We Are Here To Protest”—that the crowd didn’t actually support the pipeline. Republicans in Bismarck, having never experienced actual dissent, got so worked up, Dalrymple declared a State of Arousal. Fortuitously, the statement was amended to “State of Emergency” by the North Dakota Department of Nomenclature before it was released. For the record, the Homeland Security Warning color for an actual State of Arousal would have been a soft pink. Maybe mauve. And the sirens would play Marvin Gaye songs. It was an impressive effort by the NDDN, whose budget was slashed in the last legislative session, in order to feed the starving children of oil barons. The NDDN’s punctuation department alone was was cut in half. Without commas, the Legislature still isn’t sure if the budget deficit is 300 dollars, or $300 trillion. When commas are funded again in the next session, we will know whether nursing home residents will be sleeping in tents, under bridges, or just humanely euthanized. Meanwhile, back in the bunker, we hear things are somewhat under control, thanks to members of the North Dakota Highway Patrol. The troopers haven’t been called into action this quickly since

someone tried to say a Muslim prayer in the legislative chambers. Even though the Highway Patrol has blocked the road to the casino, it hasn’t stopped the rampant gambling. Bookies are taking odds on how soon the pipeline will leak. Leonardo DiCaprio has 500 bucks on next Tuesday. Despite the relative calm, Rep. Kevin Cramer, who these days moonlights as Trump’s pool boy, wrote a letter to Dalrymple to let him know it would be just dandy if they brought in the National Guard, or called in a drone strike. Fightin’ Kev, they call him in Congress. This protest has a lot of people fired up. On conservative talk shows and on social media, we heard from upset People Who Are Not Racists Just Because They Support Donald Trump. These are the same people who tell African-Americans and Hispanics they should go back where they came from. In this case, they were struggling en masse with messaging. Even around here, in an informal poll at Willie’s Service, the sentiment was strongly in favor of the pipeline. Until I told them our rural water comes from an inlet near the pipeline. After that, sentiments were still in favor of the pipeline, but only because the guys gathered at Willie’s mostly drink beer, anyway. As for me, I am hunkered down, watching Alex Jones on YouTube. I have enough batteries to keep my radio going a few months if we lose power. I’ve got my AR-15, a case of Cheetos, and a bathtub full of Missouri River water. Before I go to sleep each night on my Army surplus cot, I pray to the Great Spirit, as well as Neptune, Esther Williams, Aquaman, Poseidon and Ryan Lochte. Because if that thing leaks, it’s going to suck.

Bender,

LETTER TO THE EDITOR To the Editor: Well, well, well, they’re at it again! The idea of annual sessions of the ND State Legislature is once again surfacing its ugly head. Of course that liberal idea is cooked up by Democrats and Rinos(Republicans in name only). These people want more and bigger government. We keep hearing about how 80 day sessions every two years just aren’t long enough to do their work. If they wouldn’t continually keep trying to restrict our right of Initiative and Referral to the point that it is unusable they would have time. They have had time to increase state spending over 200 percent in the last 10 years or so! If they would’ve spent our money like it was their own, They wouldn’t have needed a special session. Quoting former Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher: “Socialism works great until you run out of other peo-

ples money.” Fits, doesn’t it? If we go to annual legislative sessions, we will just grow more and bigger government, a government that will distance itself even further away from the people they are supposed to represent eliminating accountability. They say that by having annual sessions they would convene for only 40 days instead of the current 80 days like now. Ha, Ha, Ha. We all know better, don’t we? That would be just a foot in the door. It would eventually become an 80 day annual session and maybe longer. We need to keep things the way they are. We also need term limits. Karma Hanson, vice president of the ND Republican Party, said in a letter a while back: “Term Limits are a thing of the past.” Karma’s Rino thinking is a thing of the past. Ralph Muecke, Gladstone

MDU will be checking to see if they can get Killdeer School on a separate lighting contract. This also means that the lights will be separated from the existing concession stand and press box electric circuitry. If this can occur, Killdeer School will be able to drop the demand charge on meters and use a straight lighting kilowatt charge. Light replacements are ordered and hopefully will be completed by first ball game. Supt.

Killdeer youths shine at North Dakota State Fair By JANET WANEK

For the Dunn County Herald The North Dakota State Fair held July 22-30 proved to be a great time for some Dunn County 4-H. This year two youth showed animals up at the state fair with success! Iris Dukart took 6th place in the Intermediate age division in Western Pleasure. Ian Dukart won Grand Champion with Savanah Full Blood Doe Goat. Both Iris, Ian as well as Faith Norby also participated

and earned points by doing the State Communication Arts Contest. These three 4-H youth advanced to the state competition after the Southwest District communication arts contests back in June. These kids did awesome and represented Dunn County well in the communications arts contest which is a great way for youth to work on public speaking and presentations. Faith Norby also had the opportunity to compete at the State Consumer Choice Judging Contest which

is a competition where youth are making informed decisions on consumer-related classes and then tell the judge their reasons for ranking the classes for instance things like binoculars, jeans, cereal have been judged in the past. Faith Norby beat out over 30 youth to place first in this competition at state. She worked hard at practices leading up to the state competition and placed all the classes in correct order and got top scores in her reasons she presented to judges. Congratulations Faith on this

wonderful accomplishment on first place. Also I would like to thank our Dunn County 4-H youth who showed static projects up at the fair. These youth included Megan Dahlen, Ian and Iris Dukart, Chesney and Kazanne Gjermundson, Brayden Klym, Shelby Lindemann, Faith and Tate Norby, and Jayne, Colten and Mariska Krank. The 12 of them together sent around 40 projects up to the state fair and some had a very successful show. Brayden Klym won Grand Champion on

his horticulture project of lettuce, and also received a reserve champion in Baking and Cooking for his sauerkraut cake which took him three tries to get it to his liking. Kazanne Gjermundson won reserve champion on her Health Display of lotion bar, Tate Norby won a Grand Champion with his wheat sheaf, and an award of excellence went to Shelby Lindemann’s Ecosystem project Congratulations to all of these participants who did such a great job at representing Dunn

Local writers reflect on their Labor Day memories By Jennifer Strange

For the Dunn County Herald Everyone remembers their first job, or at least their first difficult job. Maybe it was a newspaper route or shoveling snow around the neighborhood. Some kids grow up on a family farm or ranch, where work is woven into the very fabric of growing up. Other folks might recall after-school jobs at a local mall or restaurant or entering the job market as a young adult, eager to pave a path to the future. Members of the literary nonprofit Dunn County Writers were asked to write about their “Worst Job Ever” during a March 2016 workshop led by writing teacher Craig Lesley. Even though these jobs seemed undesirable, nearly every experience reveals a silver lining. This Labor Day weekend, take a moment to talk with friends and family about your work history: The good, the bad, the valuable. Birth of a Neatnik by Shirley Oja, Dunn Center One of my early jobs as a teenager was working in a grocery store in a small North Dakota town. It was tedious but necessary work. I cleaned and stocked shelves. Continual dusting and organizing was required, as items would get moved around by customers. Over time, I learned to be responsible and dependable to my employer. Plus, I guess that job is why I am a cleaning freak to this day.

knew I could do the work and the thought of all that money rumbled over and over through my greedy brain. Two days in, I thought, “I cannot do this. Yet I must.” I tried hard to make the best of my post. I was basically tied to a two-footsquare space, hanging onto a “Slow/ Stop” sign in the middle of oncoming traffic. For a country girl used to wide open spaces and the freedom that comes with it, this was pure torture. One minute, the sun beat down. The next, rain dripped off my hat. The brutal North Dakota wind whipped my face and lips into a dry desert. I counted the days, then counted the day into half-days, then into hours, halfhours, quarter-hours and finally I even broke the minutes into halves and quarters. It was a test of patience to stand and endure the elements, crazy drivers and my own imprisonment of space. Years later, I understood I had learned some of life’s great lessons in that very short span of time: • Not all jobs are pleasant • Money isn’t everything • Quitting isn’t an option • Think carefully about what and where you want to spend your time • A job is not work if you are doing what you enjoy The greatest lesson, though, came from my hard-found appreciation for the work that is done every day by so many people, simply in order for the world to keep going around and around. Every generation has had such hard-working souls doing jobs that are not pleasant or fun, but still must be done. For that I say: Thank you and God bless the working man! Hardest Job I Ever Had by Verna Wolf, Killdeer

On Working by Julee Gartner, Killdeer The summer I was 22 years old, I found myself broke, homeless and in desperate need of some quick income. A helpwanted ad came my way for a highway construction sign-holder job. It was a short stint—only two weeks long—but it paid $15 per hour! I wanted that job. I

Worst Job = Best Job by Jennifer Strange, Killdeer November, 1985. I was 18 when I left my hometown of Sioux Falls, South Dakota, armed with a steamer trunk full of clothes, new towels and sheets that were supposed to be for college and a guitar I still don’t know how to play. I hitched a ride with a friend. We headed south and west 1600 miles, landing in Santa Fe, New Mexico. I’d never seen the desert before. The Sangre de Cristo Mountains, terra cotta sunsets and Frida Kahlo culture instantly bewitched me. We moved into the middle unit of an adobe triplex on Fulton Lane, right off busy Agua Fria Street. The low, sprawling building was owned by two spinster sisters. Eleanor and Pamela liked to sit opposite each other in front of a picture window, hooking the same rug. “Come look, Jennifer,” they’d say. “It’s a litter of kittens! We’re giving this one to our nephew for Christmas.” Rent was $400 a month and I only had a few weeks before the second month was due. I pounded the pavement; filled out applications at a tire store, a gas station, a fancy women’s boutique. Rejected. Finally, I got hired at the Pizza Hut on Cerillos Road. It was the busiest franchise in the state, feeding a flow of families, sports teams and wandering souls. The restaurant was about a mile from our place. Every morning, I pulled

on a greasy black uniform, tied my hair in a ponytail and mounted a creaky Raleigh three-speed I’d picked up at a yard sale. In rain, snow and searing sun, I pedaled that old green bike to the Pizza Hut. Monday through Friday, from 6 a.m. to 2:30 p.m., I held court over a triple stainless steel sink pushed up against the back wall of the sweltering kitchen. No automatic dishwasher in sight. That’s where I came in: The Duchess of Dishes. I washed three-foot-tall stacks of oily black pans, towers of tomato-y plates, ginormous industrial mixing bowls plastered with hardened dough. The grossest were the 5-gallon buckets, heavy with forks, knives, spoons and spatulas. Leftover food and mouth particles floated on the tepid, sudsy water. My pay? $3.85 an hour. But I was free. I was my own woman, surrounded by Latino languages and a jukebox that blared The Temptations’ “Papa Was a Rolling Stone” and Janis Joplin’s “Piece of My Heart.” When I left the Pizza Hut for a job at the mall a year later, it was with a handful of new friends, a pocketful of new words, and a thumb that got sliced all the way through while chopping mushrooms in the industrial food processor. The blood loss was totally worth it. Babysitting by Pat Bailey, Dunn Center Five children. One weekend. I was 12 years old at the time and the children were ages two months to eight. The eightyear-old was a know-it-all. Her favorite saying? “I’m going to tell Mom.” The older ones didn’t like what I cooked for supper. They ate the food anyway or went to bed hungry. That was the order left by their mother. When nighttime came, the four oldest kids fought like mad not to go to bed on time. They shared a room and kept one another up. They were so tired the next day it made for an easy rest of the weekend. They survived and so did I.

transferred from schools not as advanced as North Dakota’s. The wide discrepancy in backgrounds and learning, combined with the huge number of students in a single classroom, meant that discipline was also an issue. Add to this mix a group of parents who’d moved to North Dakota from the south. They were constantly excusing their children from going outdoors because of the cold so there were students in the classroom at all times. No break. Now add a principal who was not supportive and you’ve got a recipe for frustration and a constant desire to be anywhere but there!

didn’t need it until Tuesday. But he didn’t want to make the same mistake he made last year. “I forgot about Labor Day,” said Duran, an oilfield worker living in Killdeer. “I needed to make my car payment. I waited until Friday afternoon to mail my

payment. It didn’t get there until Tuesday afternoon, and I had to pay a fine.” So, you need to get something in the mail on Monday? You can forget it. Want to talk to somebody at the County Courthouse on Monday? No way. Got business at City Hall on Monday? Not gonna happen. Volunteer at the school. Pick another day. Why? Monday is Labor Day, a national holiday. It’s time most people will kick back in the shade, head to the lake or hit the links. Most local, state and federal offices and services will be closed in observance on Labor Day. They will return to their regular hours on Tuesday. Many private businesses will be closed on Monday as well. Labor Day is recognized on the first Monday in September. It is a

creation of the labor movement and is dedicated to the social and economic achievements of American workers. It constitutes a yearly national tribute to the contributions workers have made to the strength, prosperity, and well-being of our country, according to the U.S. Department of Labor. However, the first Labor Day holiday was celebrated on Tuesday, Sept. 5, 1882, in New York City, in accordance with the plans of Central Labor Union. According to the Labor department, in 1884 the first Monday in September was selected as the holiday, as originally proposed, and the Central Labor Union urged similar organizations in other cities to follow the example of New York and celebrate a worker’s holiday on that date.

Tag-team tandems

Teamwork helps Killdeer boys take second; girls tie for third at Killdeer Relays By Bryan Gallegos DC Herald Publisher

Killdeer High School senior Colby Dukart waited not so patiently for his partner during the cross country seasonopening Killdeer Relays at Medicine Hole Golf Course. It was Dukart’s last first race of the season and he wanted to end it with a bang. He was teamed with Stephen Westarp in the unusual cross country event. “Come on Stephen,” urged Dukart to teammate Stephen Westarp. “Push it in. I think I can make up some time.” The five cross country teams had three tandems for the relay race. The first runner of the tandem ran a mile and then handed off to the second runner, who then covered the same distance. Each runner ran a total of three miles. Team scoring was based on the placing of each tandem.

Westarp, whose face was flushed and breathing heavy, struggled to get to the exchange zone. He swiped at Dukart’s outstretched hand, and the senor bolted after his competition. He didn’t make up any ground, however. But it didn’t matter to the soft-spoken senior. His tandem placed eighth in the event and it helped the Cowboys place second in the team race. The Cowboys were scheduled to compete in a traditional cross country event on Thursday at the Bowman County Invitational and then at the Hettinger/Scranton meet on Sept. 6. Dukart can’t wait. He smiled when somebody mentioned the “team race.” It’s something he had never been part of during his prep career because the Cowboys never have enough to score as a team. Beulah/Hazen won the boys team title with 13 points after placing four teams in the top seven spots. The Cowboys was sec-

ond with 27 points, followed by Southern McLean with 28. Parshall, despite having the top-placing tandem, was fourth, followed by Stanley. On the girls side, the Cowboys tied for third in a nip-and-tuck affair that saw the field separated by just 10 points. Southern McLean won with 21 points, while Stanley was second, two points behind. Killdeer and Parshall tied for third with 24 points and Beulah/Hazen was fifth with 31. “Everybody seemed to enjoy it,” said Killdeer head coach Nathan Horgeshimer said. “Overall, the first meet, it’s kind of nice to get it done; this is where we’re at, this is where others are at.” Dukart, who has been running cross country since the fourth grade, he likes where his team is at and expects to open some eyes this season. “This is fun. I look forward to a good year with our team,” he said. “We might surprise some people.”

Perhaps the biggest surprise was Killdeer seventh-grader Jace Anderson, who was teamed with Dakota Bowen. Anderson kept pace with the bigger, stronger and more seasoned varsity runners in the field. He and Bowen placed fourth with a time of 35 minutes, 28 seconds. Parshall had the top time of 34:15. After Dukart and Westarp placed eighth in 36:34, Orion Bowen and Garrett Calkins placed 15th with a time of 42:30. “The boys had a really good race,” Horgeshimer said. The girls were pretty good, too. Danielle Benz and Shawnee Hanson led the firth-ranked Cowboys with a fourthplace finish in 42:57. Parshall had the top tandem time of 39:01. Hannah Benz and Jaylynn Hicks combined for a time of 44:46 for eighth place, just one second behind a Beulah/Hazen team. Katelynn Lane and Corrie Dobitz placed 12th with a time of 47:57.

DICKINSON - Entering Thursday night’s season opener against Dickinson Trinity, there were two questions. Would Killdeer find an offensive playmaker with Dillan Jepson hurt? And how would Alex Sadowsky’s quarterback debut go? Killdeer didn’t find a consistent playmaker and Sawdowsky struggled connecting with his receivers, going 5-for-15 passing. Trinity won the game 32-8 at Dickinson State University. The game started with costly mistakes for Killdeer. Trinity senior running back Dawson Kram ran the first carry of the game in for a 59-yard touchdown. They missed the extra point attempt because of a bad snap. Killdeer’s first drive lacked execution. It started with a fumble and a four-yard loss at the 30yard line, followed by a penalty and missed plays, which forced the Cowboys to punt. Killdeer’s defense forced a 3-and-out, highlighted by two forceful tackles on run plays. The defensive stand gave the Cowboys a shot of momentum, it was doused when Sadowsky fumbled on a third-down

play while he was struggling for extra yardage at the 42-yard line. Trinity took advantage of the turnover when Kram scored on a 47-yard run at the 4:02 mark in the opening period. A successful two-point conversion made the score 14-0. Trinity made only one mistake in the quarter – fumbling the ball. But Killdeer couldn’t take advantage. The Titans came up with another big play early in the second period when quarterback Lucas Jones hooked up with Noah Sickler for a 41-yard touchdown pass. Trinity missed the extra point attempt, but held a comfortable 20-0 lead. Later in the period, Trinity put together a methodical 60-yard drive that culminated on a nifty 15yard run by Kaden Kuntz, which featured a lot of jukes and missed tackles. Kuntz’s run gave Trinity a 26-0 lead. Things continued to unravel for the Cowboys when Garrett LeMiuex fumbled after making a catch and Noah Sickler returned the ball 40 yards for a touchdown, that made the score 32-0. The second half was better for Killdeer. The Cowboys didn’t give up any big plays and eliminated their mistakes, and avoided a

shutout when Sadowsky completed a 12-yard scoring strike to LeMieux, before running in the twopoint conversion in the fourth quarter. “Our offensive line needs to play better. So, we have to get some first downs. Overall our guys who are touching and taking care of the football need to take care of the football. That didn’t happen the first half, second half we played better – we did,” said Killdeer head coach Lewis Dobitz said. “We talked about some things at half time to get better. They did play better. Defensively, especially in the second half, we played better but overall we played better. The Cowboys’ struggles in the first half were evident, and Dobitz said there were many mistakes and pointed to youth and inexperience as two keys for the team’s struggles. “There was many things poor tackling, kids out of position. Young guys because of that, they are still learning and two of the kids on defense are brand new. We are going to learn,” Dobitz said. Killdeer will try to improve its execution tonight when the Cowboys host Des Lacs-Burlington, whcih comes in after posting a 33-32 victory over Stanley/Powers Lake last week.

Killdeer volleyballers fall short in opener SCRANTON - The Night Hawk volleyball team opened their 2016 season with a win over Killdeer at Scranton, a fellow Region 7 opponent. They jumped out to a quick 4-1 lead in the initial set but Killdeer came back on their serve and took the lead and maintained it as they pulled out a 25-22 win. The rest of the match belonged to the Night Hawks as they fought back to win set two by a 26-24 score and easily won the next two sets by the identical scores of 25-15. The Night Hawks hustled all the way and made some difficult digs as well as keeping loose balls alive on their side of the net. Killdeer managed to stay with them at times but the Night Hawks were relentless in keeping many volleys alive until getting the point. The Night Hawks are not a tall team as their main spikers were Abbie Kludt and Molly Holt, both probably around 5’7”. But this team hustles constantly and leaves it all on the court. If you haven’t been to a volleyball match for awhile, come out and check this team out. You won’t be disappointed. They are a relatively a young team as they start three seniors, two sophomores and one freshman. The “C” squad won their match by scores of 25-14 and 25-12. I felt Ebony Musonda, Talia

ability to tap the ball to an area where the opposing team could not return it.

The Junior Varsity squad lost their match by scores of 26-24 and 25-

24-21 but Killdeer scored the next five points to pull it out.
