plus the point of not explaining
the resultant use of exiting fa-
cilities.
Just how much convincing is
necessary to get a fellow to
change his mind is a point of
conjecture When we look back
over the put several months,
we see some changes We have
a new school board which had
not altered ita opinion regard-
ing the need of a new school fa-
cility We have a different archi-
tect which agrees, like the
previous architect, that a new
school facility is needed. We
have a school administration
which held firm regarding
the opinion that Sinton must
have a new high school to meet
the ever-changing demand of
modern-day education
Like we stated before, it all
adds up to the fact that the peo-
ple of Sinton muat rely on their
elected representatives for their
authority. Our duly elected mem
ben of the Sinton school board
have indicated, to a man. that
we need a new school If we do
not have the confidence in them
that we pledged when our votes
were counted, then we have lock
ed the door on their ability to
function
Moat of us are convinced that
good schools we necessary to
good communities We have nev-
er doubted this fact Nor do we
intend to keep a closed mind on
the needs of our young people.
Without the best education pos-
sible for the youth of today, all
is lost tomorrow
Yu, we have changed our
mind about the new high school.
If we must rnaka a few sacrifices
today to preserve our commun-
ity and nation in the future, then
it la our opinion that this oontri
button is worthwhile.
We hope that some of you
have changed your mlnda regard-

payers, too.

CONTINENTAL SOFT DRINK -
Pommac Makes Debut
In Sinton Area Monday
only a tie marring their other-
wise perfect record, Raymond
Cantu, Dennis Troup, Tommy
Green, Ruben Amador, and Ken-
neth Vickers were the offensive
leaders. On the defensive unit,
Donald Offner and Ronnie Sand-
ers were the pace-letters, with
Jimmy Ennis, Jimmy Tracy and
Larry Heliums going both ways
with honors.
The Pirates will enjoy a well
deserved week’s rest nest week,
as the remainder of the District
29-AA teams open the district
race. The Pirates' next encounter
will be October 23, when they
take part in the homecoming
j game at Mathis. Next week's Dia-
I trict 29 AA action will find Taft

POMMAC, the new soft drink
import from Sweden, made its
debut in the Sinton market on
Monday, October 12, it wu an-
nounced today by Jack Preston,
manager of the Sinton Bottling
Co. which will be handling the
new product.
“We are pleased to introduce
this unique and interesting new
soft drink to the people in our
area", uid Preston, “and predict
that it will meet with wide ac-
ceptance u it hu done in all
other areal where H hu been
made available," he added.
In Sinton to auist with the in-
troduction of the new drink will
be Dr. Pepper Company person-
nel. The men have been active
in the Sinton area for several
days handling pre-sale orders to
dealer outlets.
“The introduction of the drink
will be u colorful as the drink
itself;" uid Preston. "Dealers
and consumers in the area are
in for something new and differ
ent when they meet up with this
unusual new product," he stated.
Dr. Pepper Company hu ex-
clusive distribution rights for
POMMAC throughout the entire
Western Hemisphere. Beginning
in October lut year the company
first introduced POMMAC in the
United Statu in four tut market
locations—Benton Harbor, Mich.;
Rapid City, S. D.; Santa Clara,
Calif.; and Denton, Tex. Initial
tests proved highly successful
and distribution wu soon ex-
panded in uch of the areu. Ear
lier this year two large metropol-
itan markets were added to the
tut program comprising Daliu
and San Antonio, Tex. Consumer
acceptance in these two heavily
populated areu hu been equally
utisfactory the company reports.
POMMAC hu been a leading
seller on the Continent for more
than 40 years. Ita flavor is com-
pared to fine light champagne
and, although non-alcoholic, ita
reputation placu it somewhat be-
yond the ordinary soft drink.
Made from a combination of
white grape and other natural
ingredients, POMMAC flavor is
distinctively different from any
other brand of soft drink.
The manufacture of POMMAC
also deviates from the standard
process used by other soft drink
makers. The perfect blending of
the drink is predominantly no-
ticeable through actual tasting.
Its original flavoring, made in
Sweden, is aged in huge oak
casks before being Milpped to'
the United Statu. It is marketed
u a low-calorie drink with lam
than one-third calorie per ounce,
In a July 23rd meeting ot the
Dr. Pepper Company board of di-
rectors held in Della*, it wu
announced that POMMAC would
be taken from the test marketing
stage and opened to national dis-
tribution. “In some ten months of
marketing experience,” stated
Wuby R. Parker, chairman and
president of the company, "we
have learned a great deal about
this interesting product and Ita
potential. Our study and raooorth
indicate that POMMAC hu a
very real place on the American
soft drink market and we’re con-
fident that consumers will enjoy
this fine quality product," ho add-
ed. \
