The Herald lauds Carol Fraser of Billings for representing Montana well at Atlantic City. She shares Miss Congeniality honors with a New Jersey contestant and earns a $1 000 scholarship for her western manners.
Former Secretary Byrnes says federal programs erode founders' principles and push society toward statism. He calls federal aid an opiate and urges voters to recognize funds come from citizens' pockets to curb dependence on government.
A mosaic of city life set in autumn tones includes a Herald employee seeking a room near work, a Sunday room for rent tip to Northern hotel, and locals ribbing with jokes on gambling bingo and safety. The piece closes with a wry line on a noble cause leader juggling two tough tasks.
The text outlines a long underground nymph stage lasting seventeen years. Upon emergence the insect climbs a tree, molts, mates, and lays eggs in the ground. Adults die after mating while nymphs feed on roots underground before becoming locusts again.
A note about Bolings residents wanting high quality European pictures to diversify local cinema. The piece also mentions Billings gaining a third radio station and community desires for American comics to avoid relying on Denver Salt Lake or Chicago papers. A congressman criticizes Washington for confusion. A man is described as unable to praise himself. Mark Twain quips that water in moderation won’t hurt Rayone.
