When Roscoe and Tooey leave Fort Benton after their run-in with
Cronkit out in the Little Rocky Mountains, as told in "Roscoe and
Tooey, Montana Runaways," they ride out to Clint Stranahan's place
on the Teton River. There they learn to milk cows, to put up hay
and to irrigate the hay fields. After working hard all summer they
are asked to help with finding some missing cattle for a rancher a
few miles west on the Teton River. They pack their bedrolls and
some gear thinking they'll only be gone for a day or two at the
most.. But when Roscoe hears some men burying something by the
river late at night, their search for missing critters turns into a
more deadly adventure. They follow the Bootlegger Trail into Black
Eagle where they learn to their chagrin what the men were doing out
on the river so late at night.

In June 1965 a group of dedicated professional artists of the
theatre met in Paris, France, to create the International
Association of Theatre for Children and Youth (ASSITEJ). Four days
later ASSITEJ was born, and its story began in "Discovering A New
Audience For Theatre, Volume I (1964 - 1975)." Now Volume II covers
the years from 1976 - 1990 a period of the greatest divisiveness,
which ultimately resulted in a rededication and a worldwide
expansion under new leadership. ASSITEJ now has over 80 national
centers around the world. Its Secretariat is currently in Croatia,
and the members of its current Executive Committee (2008 - 2011)
come from Argentina, Australia, Austria, Croatia, Denmark, Germany,
Finland, Israel, Japan, Korea, Rwanda, Sweden, Switzerland, Turkey,
United Kingdom, USA, and Zambia. Volume III will complete this
history, and will cover the years from 1991 - 2005, completing a
history of the first forty years of the existence of ASSITEJ. Nat

In the early l930s the country is in the midst of a depression and
Prohibition is the law. Stewart Connor, a young lawyer, has come to
Fort Benton, Montana to go into law practice with F.E. Stranahan, a
local attorney. With him have come his wife and his two young sons,
Ronald and Robert, (Roscoe and Tooey). Not yet acquainted with any
of the young people of the town, the boys make friends with Pete
McCall, the elderly caretaker of the fairgrounds. When Pete's old
mare dies, after giving birth to twin foals, Roscoe and Tooey
persuade him to let them raise the young fillies. Two years later,
because of tragic circumstances, they are faced with having to sell
their now well-trained mares and return to the city. Desperate to
stay in Montana, the boys decide to run away with their horses.
What follows is an adventure, narrated by Roscoe, describing how he
and his brother come to be the heroes of the 4th of July Parade.
