Two die in accidents By The Associated Press Two people were killed in separate traffic accidents in 1 Montana on Saturday, raising the yearly toll to 33 still 35 fewer than through April 7 last year. The Highway Patrol said a man was killed about 3:30 a.m. when he stepped into the westbound lane on Montana Secondary 445 about one mile north of Browning and was struck by a car.

The name of the victim was not immediately released. Also Saturday, Sandra Dumont Hope. mailed to Bean at 713 East Towne, Glendive 59330. The Montana Hope Project is modeled after one started by the Utah patrol about five years ago, Kraut said. Kraut and Bean stress that almost every cent that is donated is spent directy on the children, because the project has no paid advisers.

Expenses are mostly for printing flyers, postage and telephone calls either to gather information or arrange for trips. "The expenses last year were a little higher than we expected, about 5 percent of our donations, but this year it looks like it's going to be about half of 1 percent," Bean said. And although the project has about $16,000 in the bank and more coming in, it could be depleted quick- Weather Smith, 25, of Charlo was killed in a single-vehicle accident on Montana 212 about two miles southwest of that western Montana community. The patrol said the woman's car was northbound about 1:30 a.m. at an excessive rate of speed when she lost control on a curve.

The vehicle left the left side of the highway and rolled twice, the patrol said. Both Smith and a passenger, Adele Jones, 18, of Charlo were thrown from the vehicle. Jones suffered only minor injuries, the patrol said. From 1-B Fires ly, Bean said. Tod and Darin's wishes each cost between $2,000 and $2,500, which has been the average in other states, Bean said.

Many donations have come from companies that were approached for help, from community fund-raising affairs and from individuals, often anonymously. "We've had some really crazy ones," Bean said. "Officer Gene Starlin was having coffee in a shop in Missoula with some other patrolmen when a lady walked up and handed him a dollar," he recalled. "She wouldn't give her name. She just said, 'No, I don't have very much money, but this was extra today.
