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.

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.

DECEMBER 5, 1949 THE EBB TIDE WE ARE BOOSTING FOR THE SHARKS FEATHER SON Insurance R. C. and B. H. seem to be fight- ins: it out for the hand of J. Me. We still think she gave her hand to a certain S. S. True, Johnnie? P. S. didn’t do as well as usual on the basketball court Monday night. Maybe he had his eye on some Seventh Graders. Reports have it that G. J. and D. K. walked in from out of town recently. They said his car had a flat. (A poor excuse is better than none!) Since when are the Seventh Gra- ders better in math than the ninth graders? N. F. W. ought to know. George McHaney and Colleen Treacy were seen at the Edna vs. El Campo football game Friday night. Very interesting game, wasn't it. PARTAIN FOOD MARKET Your Family Grocery PHONE 68 STAPLE AND FANCY GROCERIES CttO jy NOW OPEN Western Auto Associate Store HOME OWNED and OPERATED by D. M. GREEN — PHONE 6 Hornets Chalk Up 2nd Win Against Van Vleck B 33 To 20 The Hornets blasted the Van Vleck High “B” team for the sec- ond straight time. Starting off cold, the Hornets made only six points in the first quarter. But then they broke loose. In the second and third quarters they averaged over a point-and-a- half-a-minute by scoring 27 points. The fourth quarter the boys were held to a “goose egg” as far as scoring was concerned. The Hornets really played as a team by showing a very good de- fense and much better passing throughout. Clint Wratislaw, Pete Sardelich, and Charles Harvey were the de- fensive keys. Bill Kennedy led the scoring with 10 points, Charles Harvey was next with nine, Pete» Sardelich third with eight and Clint Wratislaw, and Bill Cogburn each racked up four points. Van Vleck Junior High defeated the Hornet “B” team 18 to 7. Sophomore Party The sophomore party was well attended. There was only one thing wrong for a weiner roast. The weiners were forgotten. Some questions that were asked are: Where were Johnnie McDaniels and Sam Seale ? What happened to Billy H. when he tried to find a girl? Did George and Coleen enjoy the “Pickle Dogs”? Was it mustard on pickles that made Peggy sick—or was John mad at her again? Who forgot the weiners? Peggy said, “Some dumb Junior caused it all.” What did Betty and James miss by staying in the front seat? Coleen, was James P. hunting dear or deer? What happened to the hay? When everything was quieted down who had the hat, Joanna or Stanley? Was the moon so bright that it caused Howard to propose? Who was holding Melba's foot last, “Red” or Billy H.? Did everyone enjoy the pickle roast ? Around The Hornet Clubhouse By COACH GEO. D. HOLST. Ill Jumping off to a flying start the Hornet Court Team already has two scalps dangling from their belts. If they can keep up their pres- ent pace of sacking up a point a minute they will win a few ball games this season. We have two tournaments com- ing up before the Christmas hol- idays. We go to Bay City Decem- ber 10th and to West Columbia on December 16th and 17th for a big 14 team tournament. In the girls intramural volley- ball league, three teams are out in front with 1.000 per cent. They are the Bobby Soxers, Mustangs, and Rough Riders. The games will continue until the last week in January. The girls tumbling team put on a very nice half-time show at the Van Vleck game last week. They should be putting on several good shows before the basket ball season is over. Theory—No one ever actually kissed anyone because Mr. Orr proved that two objects will never touch ? ? ? ?
