Outlaw Partners joined forces with Huntley’s daughter, Sharon Kahn, and Big Sky residents Kristin Kern and Anne Marie Mistretta to produce the 26-minute film that brings this story to life. Kern is Huntley’s niece and Mistretta, who also wrote the film’s script, is the chair of the Historic Crail Ranch Conservators committee. The film consists of a narrated montage of interviews with the Huntley family and key players in the resort’s establishment, archival photographs, historic news footage, and early resort plans and sketches. The film begins with a brief history of the Crail family and other Gallatin Canyon homesteaders then shifts its focus to Huntley, who was also born into a Montana ranching family. “Homesteads to Huntley” follows the iconic newscaster’s path from his youth through his long tenure on NBC’s “Huntley-Brinkley Report” and his return to Montana—where he would live just long enough to see his dream of The Huntley family visited Chet Huntley’s former

Under this designation, a few gentlemen, interested in the study of American History and Literature, propose occasionally to print limited editions of such manuscripts and scarce pamphlets as may be deemed of value towards illustrating these subjects. They will seek to obtain for this purpose unpublished journals or corre- spondence containing matter worthy of record, and which may not properly be included in the Historical Collections or Documentary Histories of the several States. Such unpretending contemporary chronicles often throw precious light upon the motives of action and the imperfectly narrated events of bygone days; perhaps briefly touched upon in dry official documents. The Club may also issue fac-similes of curious manuscripts, or documents worthy of notice, which, like, the printed issues, will bear its imprint.
  • TROY DOWNING Commissioner of Securities and Insurance Montana State Auditor

    TROY DOWNING Commissioner of Securities and Insurance Montana State Auditor

    TROY DOWNING Commissioner of Securities and Insurance Montana State Auditor Troy Downing was elected Montana State Auditor in 2020. As the State Auditor and Commissioner of Securities and Insurance, Downing oversees the crim- inal justice agency protecting Montana’s consumers by ensuring fairness, transparency, and access for two of the state’s largest industries—securities and insur- ance. As Commissioner, Downing is committed to consumer education and advocacy, holding bad actors accountable, lowering insurance costs, and reducing unnecessary regulations for Montana businesses. Due to its favorable regulatory environment overseen by Downing, Montana is one of the largest captive domiciles in the United States. As State Auditor, Downing also serves on the Mon- tana Board of Land Commissioners overseeing man- agement and stewardship of state trust lands for the primary benefit of funding Montana’s public educa- tion system. Downing began his career in education as a research scientist and educator at the Courant Institute of Mathematical Sciences at New York University. In the 1990s, he founded a tech- nology startup company that he successfully merged with Yahoo! Inc. Downing then went on to help other startup companies succeed through seed funding and mentorship. After his career in the tech industry, Downing founded a nation-wide commercial insurance company and a nation-wide real estate firm that creates, sells, and manages real estate investment secu- rities. Downing’s strong sense of public service led him to enlist after 9/11 in the U.S. Air Force/Air National Guard, serving eight years in a Combat Search and Rescue squadron and serving two tours of duty in Afghanistan.

BAERREIS Department of Meteorology, University of Wisconsin, Madison This report summarizes the radiocarbon dates obtained at the Uni- versity of Wisconsin since November 1964; the procedures followed have been described previously (Wisconsin I, 1965) . The counting equipment has been supplemented with a second de- tector of 500 ml volume for which the nominal background at 1 std atm, 298.2° K, is 2.1 cpm as determined with petroleum methane (Phillips Petroleum Co.). The corresponding standard count for contemporary methane derived from NBS oxalic acid 95% Aox, is nominally 2.8 cpm at 1 std atm, 298.2° K. The additional counting equipment was also ob- tained from the Sharp Division of Beckman Instrument Co. The dates reported have been calculated on the assumption of a half-life of 5568 yr for C14, with 1950 as the reference year. Samples have normally been run at 3 atm pressure for a minimum of 15,000 counts. The standard deviation quoted includes only the 1Q of the counting statistics of background, sample, and standard counts. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS This research is supported by the Atmospheric Sciences Division, National Science Foundation, under grant GP-444, and Social Sciences Division, Grant GS-433. We are indebted to Dr. J.

Theler Department of Sociology and Archaeology University ofWisconsin-La Crosse, La Crosse, Wl 54601 . [email protected] Excavations at the Midway Site, located in the city ofBemidji, Minnesota produced an extensive vertebrate faunal assemblage, with over 23,000 remains representing a minimum of 116 individual animals from 55 different taxa. Despite the lack ofa detailed analysis ofthe cultural remains, the faunal data provide impor­ tant information on Woodland subsistence strategies in northern Minnesota. Although fish are numerically most abundant, large mammals, including moose, white-tailed deer, elk, black bear, and caribou, likely provided the bulk of the animal protein in the local diet. Evidence indicates a multi-season use ofthe site, with a fall-winter deer harvest, use ofmoose (probably along with wild rice) during the winter, and spring harvest of riparian animals, spawning fish, and turtles. The representation of large mammal skeletal ele­ ments suggests an off-site processing of the animal carcasses, with the retention of only specific elements.
