SERENADE FROM A FLAT-FOOTED FULLBACK Will you love me and remember, In the sprightly month of May, As you did, dear, in December, When I made that touchdown play ? Or will you forget that story And your fickle fancy swing . . . To the dope who wins the glory At the track meets in the spring? H. E.

Roy Wratislaw And Tom Bolling Named On District Grid Team Tom Bolling and Roy Wratislaw were placed on the 40-B all-district team, both representing the Center position. The coaches from the district school did not know which player played the most as the two boys split the offensive time with Wra- islaw playing the most, but Bolling playing all of the defensive line- backing. The Palacios center-post received every vote in the District. Hats off to Mr. Stevenson and his Ag. 1 and 2 boys for their splendid work in building our two shuffleboards. Also to the boys and girls who stood guard while the cement was drying. The H. E. I Girls gave a foot- ball banquet honoring the Junior High football boys on Tuesday, November 22. The menu served to the 50 guests present consisted of meat loaf, can- died sweet potatoes, stuffed celery, orange fruit baskets, coffee and lemon pie. The meal was served on a highly decorated table carrying out the color scheme of blue and white. Small helmets on which the menu and program was written, were placed at the side of every plate. Place cards were tiny goal posts with each boy’s name placed in the center. The Center piece was made up of fall flowers and leaves arranged on each table. The program was carried out very nicely by Marilyn Johnson, mistress of ceremonies. Mr. Burton gave the invocation. Speeches were made by Coach Shelton. Charles Johnson, and Coach Holst. Bob Lowry, who was unable to play this season, was presented a foot- ball signed by the 15 lettermen. In all, we believe our banquet was very successful. We hope ev- eryone enjoyed it as much as we io ed giving it.

THE EBB TIDE NOVEMBER 21, 11 Shuffle Board For AG I And II Classes Two shuffle board courts are be- ing built south west of the high school by the Ag. I and II classes. The foundation and forms are ready for concrete on the first court, and the second is under con- struction. Work would progress much faster if students would quit walking on the forms. The courts will be 52 feet long and six feet wide. Part of the Ag. II class was out of working condition one day last week because of “chewing tobacco.” It seems the boys were trying to be real farmers. Moral: “A good thing can be carried too far.” Another handicap is that we have too many engineers and not enough workers. What have the Eighth Grade girls done to make Bill K. so angry at them? Maybe they stole one too many boys for their own good. PALACIOS CLEANERS ELI MAYFIELD BRANDON'S Dry Goods - Shoes Notions - Hats PALACIOS, TEXAS KED’S TENNIS SHOES SCHOOL SUPPLIES MADDOX MOTOR CO. Phone 323 or 324 3BB8HBBBR8EBBn We Killed The Jinx! Thursday night—if you weren’t with us when we burned the jinx you sure missed something. It sure looked good seeing “Port Lavaca going up in ashes.” The band, pep squad, and foot- ball boys and anyone else that wanted to come along, started out from the high school and marched down town. The parade was led by the football boys carrying the huge jinx which had Port Lavaca writ- ten all over it. When we reached town we marched from there to the bay- shore, where we built a huge bon- fire. Amid the crackling of the flames our old school yell rang out and then Roy Wesselman, one of our “Sharks,” made an ash out of Port Lavaca. It sure looked good to see it burning. It must have done some good too, because the Sharks real- ly held those Sandcrabs down Fri- day night. After some more yells and songs the band played “Tiger Rag,” and the majorettes presented a tricky little twirl and that was that. We think the rally was really a success and we want to tell the Sharks that we’re really proud of them. If ever you played a good game of ball it was definitely Fri- day night. Since this is some of the Sharks and Shark Boosters last year in school and I think they’ll all want me to add— Good Luck Sharks of 1950! CORRECTION, PLEASE The Beacon is on bended knee to the Ebb Tides. Last week we omitted tjiree of the Hornet foot- ball lettermen from the paper. They are Charles Harvey, Robert Linton and Jimmy Shearer. Could it be that Sonny Chiles is taking Commercial Law because the word “Sue” is ued frequently? On him we gaze, and our surprise Increases every minute. That Mr. Stevenson’s skull. Which seems so full. Should have so little in it. Gloria J. and Boyd F. sure were having a good time in the show Saturday night! Huh, Tiny? PETERSEN’S CAFE 416 Main St. WEDDING BELLS . . . Wedding bells will be ringing soon for two of our beloved high school students. The surest way to win a woman’s heart is to take aim, “Neeley.” It seems as if Mary Evelyn has already begun to think about the grocery bill; she put Robert to work in Partain’s Food Market. Seems like old times again for Marilyn M.—No boyfriend! Too late to study now! GREEN LANTERN INN MR. MRS. CLIFFORD MORI HUMBLE SERVICE STATION “PAT” LOWRY HAMLIN'S I. G. A.

THE EBB TIDE DECEMBER 5. 1« THE POOP FROM THE GROUP I guess Irene was thrilled Mon- day night, wasn’t she Buddy? Joyce and Sue have been study- ing the constitution in American History, but they haven’t been able to find any thing that said it was against the law for Carol C. to flirt with their boy friends? Everyone was surely glad when Jack Nelson decided to come back to Palacios to go to school. We wonder what kind of a meet- ing the Midway boys are having at De Costa Saturday night. Maybe Sam S. would know. Is Mr. Carvin going to change his profession. He told his “clase de Espanol” that he was going to write a book. Goody. You’ve got me wrong, my heart belongs to daddy. Signed Dimples. Seems like J. S. and L. M. C. like to work physics problems to- gether at home. How about it James ? We are beginning to wonder how L. G. and the Bay City boys are coming along, especially Ronnie L. Stay right in there, Lynn, you might get one yet. On December 1 we had a very boring plane geometry class be- cause Nelson (there’s another way) Thompson and Ralph (Perpendic- ular) Robinson were not there. Peggy M. really enjoyed her air- plane ride with Bob Trull. The first thing she said when she got down was. “He’s not old, Mr. Sullivan, just bald.” John Merck really gets mad when Colleen T. goes to Collegeport, be- cause then James P. won't go coon hunting with him. Wonder what COMPLIMENTS OF STEPHEN'S STUDIO FAMOUS QUOTATIONS (Answers In Next Issue) Who s?id? “I don’t care whether all the girls are crazy about me or not; I don’t claim to be any Humphrey Bogart.” “Okay, folks, let’s open our adop- ted text to page 137 and get the jest of today’s lesson.” “Well, I don’t know what to tell you, Bates.” “As a matter of fact, I was thinking of that very thing.” “You worry too much. It’s not good for you.” “I’ve got his dog tag.” those two do? Dora Lee S. is still going with Raymond B., aren’t you, Dora? Jack N. hasn’t seemed to notice any girls yet. Don't get discour- aged, Jack, just because they aren’t all Lana Turners. In Bible class. Rev. Harris has just been named a new name. He is now “Ecclesiastes,” isn’t he E. N.? Jerry N. reads the Song of Sol- omon and tries to learn verses to quote to Ginger S. Coy R. and Dora Ann S. com- pare grades. I wonder why they both make the same. We wonder who Evelyn T. is al- ways sitting around thinking about. Wake up, Evelyn. Say Bobby H. we hear you love to go horse-back riding at Midway. We wonder why? Poor Charles G. is bemoaning because he can’t be intelligent as well as good looking. We feel for you Charles. It has been heard that Betty H. is moving to Orange. What is poor James M. going to do? Classified Section WANTED—An “A” in Algebra. M. J., J. Me., C. T. WANTED—A high school boy, jun- ior or senior, blond or brunette. A passionate frosh. (That’s a hint.) WANTED—A very bashful boy He must play basket ball and be willing to take a wallflower from the ninth grade to the show. WANTED—Any kind of a boy! The writer of this ad is desper- ate. I am willing to pay all ex- penses on dates. I am true and loy- al. It’s really a bargain. WANTED—One horness and collar for Joan Claybourn. This is for good usage. It will be used to keep her away from loose boys. Please notify Peggy Miller and Johnnie McDaniels in case you have one not in use. This is a worthy cause. NICKNAMES MAKE AN AFTERNOON DATE AT THE Palacios Pharmacy PHONE 151 Palacios boys seem to like GI haircuts. What is the reason? At last the Ninth Graders are getting revenge on the Eighth Gra- ders! J. A. M. has B. H.. and V. W. is still wondering what happened. Valerie, is your so-called ro- mance still budding with Bobby H.? (What? Valerie with a boyfriend?) Judging from the poor grades on report cards, the family car and most Ninth Graders will stay at home for awhile. Jo Ann M. says there is only room in her heart for one boy, Bobby H.
