Pioneer Montana Doctor Kept in School by Football
Dr. Lawrence S. Packard, Montana pioneer physician in Whitehall and Jefferson valley since 1902, began medical study to stay in school and play football. His rugged practice covered 40 mile summer and winter calls, horseback and buggy, with early hospital absence, primitive birthing, and danger from mines and railroad work. He credits his wife as key nurse and recalls low pay with barter of goods.
