ACT OF KINDNESS: Whitehall eighth grader Bryon Betts recently performed a random act of kindness and generosity when he donated his own personal computer to an Anaconda youth who was injured in a traffic accident. The Anaconda youth, whom Betts had never met, was hurt in a school bus collision and will be in a partial body cast for a while. "If I was in his place, I'd like someone to donate a computer to me. It's just a nice thing to do," said Betts.

The Whitehall Town Council had a busy agenda during its March 13 meeting. By the time the council adjourned, it had hired a town attorney, given initial approval of a community decay ordinance, heard an update on the street paving project, and then decided to get tougher with abandoned and unlicensed vehicles. A decision was made to buy two new doors for the ambulance and police garage.
According to information released this week from the Local Government Center at the University of Montana Bozeman, Whitehall's population increased by 10.2 percent from 1995 to 1998, making it the tenth fastest-growing town in Montana.

He is the son of Roger Chadwick and Shelly Gustin. Nathan, a junior, has college plans after high school and enjoys driving, sleeping, and computers.
