Malvern MCHS Jamboree Showcases Alumni and PE Progress
Friday night at the Community building featured two 6 minute halves in short form basketball games. The first matched top junior high teams, while the second pitted the Oriolettes against an alumni squad from Malvern’s 1962 state tournament group. Alumni included Darrah, Beasley, Turner, Shapcott Slaughter, Wolfe Hatfield, Bass Obrecht, and Jones Donelson. The guard trio of Slaughter, Darrah, and Hatfield posed a tougher back court than the Oriolettes had faced, and a full length rematch would draw fans. The evening’s highlight was a standout PE performance by younger students, underscoring Malvern’s investment in physical education to reduce injuries. Coach Jerry Kindhart of South Page has accepted Ida Grove’s girls basketball post, exiting after a 67-27 South Page four-year run, with strong ties to the Corner Conference and Malvern-South Page relations.

Mass Migration of Snow and Canada Geese Seen in Central Mills Area
Large flocks of snow and Canada geese gathered along the Missouri River bottom and in Nish na lowlands near White Cloud township, with estimates up to a quarter of a million birds. Observers Mark Johnson, Bob Johnson, and Joel Hathaway reported concentrations west and east of their areas, and photographers captured dramatic V formations as the birds moved north. The spring migration along the Missouri flyway has intensified since the 1930s, with geese nesting on Baffin Island and feeding in Midwest cornfields before heading toward Minnesota and beyond.
