Franklin Cunningham Business Mgrs. David Johnson Colleen Treacy FIRST CASUALTY A courageous sophomore, Bill Hamlin by name, was hurt during the first quarter of the Tidehaven game here Friday night. Bill was sent in to relieve Tom Boling and got his leg bone cracked after the third play. He said he felt a little pain but nothing was as important as the football game. Bill kept on playing and intercepted a short pass in the third quarter. He said his leg didn't hurt him until he got home that night. Moral—If you want to play foot- ball bad enough, a broken leg can’t stop you! XisOrtxpt k Knuitixtotx BRANDON'S Dry Goods - Shoes Notions - Hots PALACIOS.

Phone 323 or 324 Junior High Library The library checking counter has been one of the most popular spots in the Junior High School since opening day, on September 13. The seventh graders seem apt in learn- ing to return books promptly so they won’t have to pay a fine of five cents a day which is charged for books when overdue. Will the seventh graders and new students please note that the librarians must know the name of the book, the author’s name, and also whether it is fiction or non- fiction, and if the book is non- fiction they must have the number in order to produce the book in- quired for. The most popular books since school opened seem to be Little Women” with the girls and Black Stallion” for the boys. Results Of Game No. 1 1. Keg, better known as S. Chiles, pooped out 2.

PALACIOS HIGH SCHOOLS VOLUME 1 PUBLISHED BY P. H. S. STUDENT BODY NUMBER 2 F.F.A. CHAPTER HOLDS FIRST REGULAR MEETING SHARKS WIN OPENING TWO GAMES; HORNETS LOSE Black Kittens Down Sharks Win Opener Sharks Defeat With President Tom Boling pre- siding, the Palacios F. F. A. Chap- ter held its first meeting of the year, Wednesday, September 21st, in the Agriculture Class Room. Several important matters of bus- iness were discussed and disposed of. Miss Jeanette Williams was elected chapter sweetheart for the second consecutive year. Jeanette’s picture will be sent the “Future Farmer.” the official magazine of Texas F. F. A. Chapters, for pub- lication. The chapter also decided to start a “pig circle” this year for the first time. Money will be taken from the chapter treasury to pur- chase two registered Duros-Jersey gilts. These gilts will be presented to two F. F. A. boys who will use them for their chapter projects for this year. The only require- ment is that each boy give back to the chapter one gilt from the first litter. The chapter decided to have their regular meeine at night in ♦he future. The meetings will be held at 8:00 o’clock the first Tues- day of every month. WHO DENTED THE GREY GHOST? At a meeting of the Student Council of the Jr. and Sr. High Schools a special investigating Committee was appointed to de- termine who put the dent in the Jr. Hornets 33-7 In Opening Game The Bay City Black Kittens clawed the Palacios Junior High Hornets for 33 points while the Hornets stung for only 7 points at Bay City Thursday, September 22. The Black Kittens scored one touchdown in the first, two in the second, one in the third and one in the fourth quarter. The Hornets got their lone tally in the last quarter after “Red” Harvey had intercepted a pass and returned it to the Bay City 20 yard line.. Then behind good blocking, Pete “the walking arm” Sardelich scored on a right end sweep standing up. Sardelich and his receivers. Clem- ent, Harvey, Shearer, and Ken- nedy, completed 13 out of 15 passes. In the line Clint Wratislaw, Roy Smith, and “Red” Harvey turned in good ball games. Others start- ing for the Hornets were Linton, Bowers. Johnson, Foltyn, Humble, and Bolling. left rear fender of the Grey Ghost. When Mr. Smith and Mr. Shelton were called before the Student Council no definite information could be gathered. As no student had been seen driving the Grey Ghost, it seems that the investi- gating committee narrowed their search to two individuals. Further reports will be given. From Tidehaven By 33-0 Score The Palacios Sharks beat the Tidehaven Tigers 33-0 here Friday September 16. The game got under way when the Sharks kicked off to the Tigers. The ball was re- covered promptly by the Sharks when the Tigers fumbled. From that time on, it was mostly Pala- cios touchdowns and Tidehaven fumbles. Jimmy Kitchen came through with the first touchdown of the game. The try for the extra point was successful. Sam Seale made the second touchdown and John Gayle added another of the num- erous touchdowns just before the half ended. The Sharks kicked off to the Tigers again in the second half. Sam Seale made another touch- down. Shortly after he intercepted a pass and went 36 yards for a touchdown. Charley Warn finally made a first down for Tidehaven in the last quarter. John Gayle, Tom Bolling, Sam Seale, Jimmy Kitchen, George “Lit- tle Doak” Chiles, and Lynn Ram- sey made the first downs for the Sharks. Total yards gained by the Sharks were 192; for Tidehaven 57 yards. Beat the Bloomington Bobcats! Louise In Thrilling 2 To 0 Battle Our Sharks eked out a close 2 to 0 win over the fast charging Louise Hornets, Friday night, Sep- tember 23. The Louise Hornets started the game by kicking off to the Pa- lacios Sharks who after running it back about fifty yards lost the ball. Although the Hornets kept the ball most of the time in the first half they were unable to score. Every time they seemed to he get- ting somewhere the Sharks would hold for downs and kick out. Fate was with us at the end of the first half. The Hornets had carried the ball to our twelve yard line and a first down when the gun sounded ending the half. The Sharks came back into the game the second half with more steam than was shown in the first half. On a booming punt off the toe of John Gayle, which carried to the Hornet goal line, came the only score of the game. Bezdek, who was playing safety for the Hornets, received the ball on his own goal line and ran into the end zone to gain running room. How- ever, before he could again reach the playing field he was tackled bv five or six of the fast charging Sharks. We can feel very fortunate in winning this game from the Hor- (Continued on Back Page) THE SHARKS—Front row, left to right: James Milam, mgr., Roy Wesselman, Stanley Wright, Lynn Ramsey, Carroll Cairnes, Roy Markwardt, Buddy Crawford, and Coach R.

SEPTEMBER 26, 1949 THE EBB TIDE WE ARE BOOSTING FOR THE SHARKS FEATHER SON Insurance English eight Last year’s seventh grade Eng- lish students have reassembled as eighth graders without the loss of a student but with the addi- tion of eleven. We hope to make the newcomers feel at home. The same eight parts of speech are still with us. There have been several boys changed from first period to sec- ond period class. To Bonnie H.’s delight, Bill K. was among them. MATHEMATICS EIGHT The eighth grade girls math class enjoys watching the football boys practice football during the seventh period class. It is work- ing out fine because the lessons have been fairly simple. PARTAIN FOOD MARKET ’Your Family Grocery' PHONE 68 STAPLE AND FANCY GROCERIES • ! YEA, SHARKS ...

D. HOLST. Ill “Old King Football” has really taken over now and he will rule from now until about January 1st, 1950. The Junior High Hornets, now in their second year of inter- scholastic athletic competition, have joined a football conference. Every- one in “the big red castle” is hop- ing they will have a ball club strong enough to win the con- ference, but I know it isn't that easy. Unless we snap out of our slump, the road will be long and rough. The girls physical education class now has 38 students, which is a lot of girls for just one physical ed- ucation teacher. (I’m enjoying it!) The class is divided into three softball teams which will have a play-off for the championship. The teams are the Sluggers, Black Pan- thers and the Yankees, with Judy Broussard, Kay King, and Bonnie Harvey as captains of the re- spective teams. Now to my football predictions of the week: Palacios Sharks over Bloomington 19-12; Junior High Hornets over Vanderbilt, 13-0; Sharks over Goliad, 13-0; Junior High Hornets over Port Lavaca 20-13. HORNETS’ SCHEDULE September 22—Bay City at Bay City; September 29—Vanderbilt here; October 6—Port Lavaca at Port Lavaca; October 13—Bay City here; October 20—Louise at I ouise; October 27—Port Lavaca here; November 3—Edna at Edna; No- vember 10—open; November 17— Edna here. Make it a point to go out and see all of the football games. The Hornets need your support! TEXAS HISTORY SEVEN Look out, the Indians will get you! That’s the way we have felt in studying the first three chap- ters of our Texas History. Names, names, how could anybody have such a name as Cabeza de Vaca or Pineda. We can’t pronounce them much less spell them. Anyway we are looking forward to that trip to Goliad. Hope we get to go next spring. BEAT BLOOMINGTON! JOHN F. BARNETT LUMBER (0.

We had a test over all we have learned about Parts of Speech since the third day of school, last Friday, Sep- tember 16. Miss McGlothlin, our English teacher, has been reviewing us for about two weeks by giving us sentences to tell the Parts of Speech of and giving us words to use as different Parts of Speech We are keeping notebooks this year just as we did last year in which we keep our corrected tests and summaries of book reports. We are now ready to take up the study of the simple subject, com- plete subject, simple predicate and complete predicate. We will likely take up something different after the six-week test.
