WITH JOHN R. WILSON
John Merck of the Citrus Grove
Merck’s Hunting Club reported
Wednesday he’d heard the redfish
were biting again in the Oyster
Lake area. There were still few
reports of sizeable catches, as far
as we could determine, however.
Howard Campbell has returned
from a deer hunt of several days
duration north of Leakey in the
Edwards Plateau country. All he
would say was that he didn't get
his limit.
Mr. and Mrs. M. A. Ellis and
L. C. Smith caught 68 nice trout
near Oyster Lake Tuesday.
Junior High School PrincipaU. G.
Smith reported good goose hunt'
ing from a clearing in the Colorado
River bottoms over the Thanks-
giving holidays. He and his father,
J. G. Sr., head of the history de-
partment at East Texas State Col-
lege in Commerce, go their limit
there Thursday through Saturday,
he said.
Santa Claus Is
Coming To Town..
Here December 21
Santa Claus is coming to Pa-
lacios. Yes, reindeers, sleigh and
all.
One of his messengers called
Monday at the Chamber of Com
merce and asked them to arrange
for his visit.
Santa is very busy this year and
has to call early at some places
so that h'enca be with the soldiers,
sailors, marines, and airmen on
Christmas Day.
He is scheduled to come down
Main Street at 1 p.m. December 21
with sleigh bells ringing.
Dancer, Prancer, Donder and
Blitzen will be all decked out in
their harness and bells pulling
Santa in his sleigh.
Make your plans now to see him.
Traditional Game
Will Be Broadcast
Thanksgiving Day
The Southwest’s annual Thanks-
giving Day football feature—the
traditional University of Texas-
Texas A. & M. game—will be
broadcast Thursday afternoon by
Humble Oil & Refinipg Company.
Senior rivalry of the Southwest
Conference, the colorful holiday
meeting between the two state
schools has added importance this
year because of the records of the
two teams—as Texas seeks to re-
main undefeated in Southwest Con-
ference play and among the top
handful of the nation’s teams and
A. & M. shoots for a successful
finish to its bright season.
Kern Tips will call the play-by-
play while Alec Chesser describes
color at Austin’s Memorial Sta-
dium, with a packed-house crowd
of over 66,000.
Broadcast time is 1:50 p.m. on
Stations KTRH, Houston, and
KABC, San Antonio.

VOLUME XLVIII NUMBER 48
CHRISTMAS DECORATING MATERIAL
FOR STREET LIGHTING ARRIVING
Manual Assistance For Installation Is
Needed; C. P, & L. Co. Furnishes Current
The first shipment of materials
for the stringring of Christmas
lights in Palacios has arrived and
work on the project is expected to
get under way shortly.
The campaign to finance the
Yuletide lighting is going ahead
at full tilt. Contributions are con-
tinuing to come in.
Planners of the project expressed
gratitude for the splendid cooper-
ation from clubs and civic organ-
izations. Many of them deposited
contributions without waiting to be
called upon.
Some of the people who pledged
money to the lighting program
still have not paid up and are
urged to send checks to Palacios
Civic Association, c/o M. M. Brook-
ing, City State Bank, Palacios.
All schools in Palacios have been
asked to take collections for the
lights and so far the planning com-
mittee has collected none from the
school children. When that collec-
tion comes in, it is expeced to swell
the till, which had reached $738 In
cash and pledges last week.
When work on the stringing of
the lights begins, considerable vol-
unteer labor will be needed. Those
willing to donate time and muscles
to put up the lights may contact
Red Richards at Central Power and
Light Company, which has agreed
to furnish electricity free of charge.
Jimmy Shearer Learns
The Hard Way, Has
Pick-Up Truck Stolen
Jimmy Shearer learned the hard
way that it pays to keep one’s
keys pocketed when leaving ve
hides unguarded, even in Palacios.
A thief calmly drove off in Mr.
Shearer’s pick-up Monday night
when he found it unattended at a
Main Street parking place.
The vehicle was recovered later
on Fourth Street, City Marshal
Lester Bashaw reported, minus a
wheel and tire, battery, and various
tools.
Mrs. John W. Bolling
Is Re-Elected President
Of Church Women
Mrs. John Bolling was re-elected
president of the Palacios Council
of Church Women at a meeting
in her home yesterday as the
group laid plans to "get in touch
with anyone the council can help
to have a brighter Christmas.”
Plans were made to hold a rum-
mage sale at the West Side Ele-
mentary School December 15. Any-
one who has usuable rummage
sale material should contact Mrs.
Bolling by calling 196, Mrs. Lutie
Bruse at 23, or Mrs. G. G. Hope
at 118.
The money raised by the sale
will be used for some good work,
the council said. The group added
that it will submit in January an
annnal report of the money spent
in helping those in need and for
other worthy causes.
Workers to mark and assort ar-
ticles in preparation for the rum-
mage sale will be needed December
14 from 2 to 4 p.m. and more peo-
ple will be needed the day of the
sale to act as sales ladies.
The council invites anyone inter-
ested, whether members of the
group or not, to assist.
Other officers elected yesterday
were Mrs. Earl Price, vice-presi-
dent; Mrs. Guy Claybourn, trea-
surer; Mrs. J. J. Harbison, secre-
tary; and Mrs. Hope, publicity

Fire Siren Means
Go To Curb, City
Marshal Warns
Pull over to the side of the
street and stop until the fire trucks
go by—that’s the warning issued
by City Marshal Lester Bashaw
Tuesday.
Two near-accidents as the vol-
unteer firemen rushed to answer
a call east of town Tuesday mom
ing prompted the marshal to warn
motorists that fines will be meted
out unless fire trucks are given the
right-of-way to which they are
entitled by law.
Cars pulling out in front of fire
trucks and cars that continue to
travel toward the oncoming trucks
despite the whistle and sirens are
the main cause of danger.
Those drivers you see racing
madly toward the fire station when
the whistle sounds are, of course,
volunteers on the way to man the
fire trucks. Despite this well-known
fact, Marshall Bashaw says he
hears that lame “excuse” often
when cautioning motorists to pull
over and stop until the fire trucks
pass.
The marshal issued the warn-
ing with the wholehearted approval
of the Palacios Volunteer Fire De-
partment.
He also added that the fire de-
partment requests those who follow
the trucks to the scene of the fire
to do so at a safe distance behind
the trucks. They are also urged to
stay clear of the vicinity so fire-
men will have every opportunity
to attach to the water mains and
lay the hose.
One car parked In the path of
the trucks or hose might delay the
fire fighters for five minutes and
cost the life of some person trapped
in a burning house, it was pointed
out.
So, when the whistle sounds,
pul] over!
anxious to try out the new pocket
stop-watch the Hornet A and B
football squads presented him Mon
day at assembly.
Enclosed in a handsome silver
case, the timepiece bears this in-
scription on the back: “To Coach
Holst, from the 1950 Hornets—A
and B.”
Hubert Bowers, one of the co-
captains of the 1950 A team, made
the presentation.
It wasn’t all a one-way treatment
though. Coach Holst had presented
blue and white jackets to the A
squad lettermen at the banquet a
couple of weeks ago. Reserve let-
termen received letter awards.
B team lettermen are scheduled
to receive letter certificates short-
ly-
Glendana Jewelers obtained the
watch for the boys at cost, through
the generosity of G. L. Pore, pro-
prietor.
Mr. and Mrs. Tom E. Friery had
as their guests Thanksgiving his
parents, Mr. and Mrs. J. C. Friery,
and Mr. and Mrs. Archie Smith of

Curtis and Wayne, and Mrs Ray-
mond Smith of Houston.

West Side Playground
Needs Manual Aid
Although work on the West
Side playground is now under way,
the sponsoring American Legion
post is issuing a call to West Side

oping the lots.
Those who are interested in im-
proving the facilities for youth

Tidehaven Game To
Be Shown Tonight
Movies of the Palacios-Tide-
haven football game, which the
Sharks won, 14-7, will be shown

Coach Sharkey Shelton announced
Wednesday.
Exceptionally clear and vivid,
the film also includes the Palacios
High School Band’s halftime per-
formance, the coach said. Tide-
haven is furnishing the movie for
the showing here.
The public is cordially invited.
Jr. High Basketball
Team In Doubt, No
Lettermen For Nucleus
Coach George Holst will have a
job on his hands fashioning a bas-
ketball team at the junior high
school this season. He has not a
single letterman among seventh
and eighth graders.
Since no other school in the
junior high district have ninth
grades, Palacios will not be al-
lowed use of its ninth grade let-
termen from last year.
Six teams in the district play a
five-game single round robin and
then engage in a tournament Feb-
ruary 17 at Tidehaven gym to de-
termine the champion.
The only players who have had
a particle of experience at the cage
sport are Alfred Manning and
Dean Blackwell, who played just a
few minutes all last season when
they were seventh graders.
Those two and Neil Blackwell,
Santos Perez, Leroy Smith, Bobby
Bashaw and Jimmy Highberg will
form the nucleus of the A squad.
Thirty-seven boys in all are out
to land a spot on the A or B team.
The Hornets begin the season
Thursday, January 4, at Crescent.
Here’s the remainder of the slate:
January 4—Markham at Bless-
ing, Van Vleck at Louise; January
11—Blessing at Palacios, Markham
at Van Vleck, Crescent at Louise.

test to follow at eight.
Farm Home Burns,
Grass Fires Keep
Firemen Busy
Mr. and Mrs. Paul Kocurek and
their two small children were com-
plete victims of a fire that de-
stroyed their home Monday after-
noon.
Palacios volunteer firemen an-
swered a call to the fire but the
house was completely burned by
the tame the truck reached the
scene, almost a mile beyond the
Turtle Creek bridge on Highway
35.
Mrs. Kocurek and the two chil-
dren were at home at the time
the fire broke out and escaped with
only the clothes on their backs. Mr.
Kocurek was at work at the time,
That call Monday came while
one fire truck was answering a call
to a grass fire on the Tres Pala-
cios River.
Tuesday morning the department
was called out to another grass
fire on the Grassy Point road. Rab-
bit hutches belonging to R. A.
Walker were on fire but the only
victims were some soaked rab-
bits.
Burning grass set afire some
railroad ties north of town Sun-
day and the department put that
out, too, making four calls an-
swered in the past week.
Jr. High Principal
Speaks On Health
Reports At Lions Meet
Principal J. G. Smith of Palacios
Junior High School was guest
speaker at the Lions Club meet-
ing Tuesday to tell of the recent
health examinations conducted
there.
The results of the Lions sight-
saving project among children here
was the point of emphasis in Mr.
Smith’s address.
Ret. O. B. Thompson, stationed
at Camp Polk, La., spent Thanks-
giving with his family and friends.
Mr. and Mrs. Robert M. Neeley
are the parents of a six pound, 12
ounce baby boy, born at the Mat-
agorda County General Hospital in
Bay City November 27. He has
been named David Earl.
Gifts For Those Who
Gave' Being Gathered
By Legion Auxiliary
Local American Legion Auxiliar-
ites are now conducting their an-
nual campaign to assist disabled
veterans in providing Christmas
gifts for their loved ones.
Each year as the holiday season
rolls around, the Auxiliary points
out, there are some veterans who,
through circumstances beyond their
control, are unable to enjoy the
pleasure of giving.
Items which such veterans might
select to send their wives, children
or parents are gathered in each
locality and forwarded to veteran’s
hospitals.
There they are set up for inspec
tion and selection by the veterans.
Tea wagons are used to take as-
sortments to he bedsides of those
unaBleTo 70me to llie display t oomv
The public is invited to partici-
pate in this worthwhile project.
Donors may leave their gifts at
either Hunter’s Floral Service or
at Muriel’s any time before 6 p.m.
December 7. They will be packed
that evening for shipment.
“It is a good practical way to
show our appreciation to those
whose sacrifices for national de-
fense have been greater, in many
cases, than those who gave their
lives that liberty might live,” the
Auxiliary declared.
Mr. and Mrs. Jesse Dismukes
and son spent the Thanksgiving
holidays in Baytown and Houston.
Miss Mary Florip, student nurse
at Memorial Hospital, spent the
Thanksgiving week-end with her
parents, Mr. and Mrs. R. C. Florip.
Mr. and Mrs. Ernest Jones and
Mrs. Lowell Johnson left Sunday
night to visit Mr. Johnson, who is
stationed at Camp Cook, Cal. Low-
ell called his wife and mother from
California Thanksgiving night. Mr.
Jones, a veteran of World War II,
once served at Camp Cook.
Coach Sharkey Shelton’s district
championship football squad will
engage in an intra-squad scrim-
mage here Friday at 7 o’clock to
keep in trim for .the bi-district
clash with Pleasanton, slated De-
cember 8 in Cuero.
After first agreeing to play the
game this Friday, Pleasanton offi-
cials reconsidered and took full
advantage of their prerogative to
postpone the contest unil next
week.
The three-week layoff will be a
long one for the Sharks. Their
mentor will have a job on his hands
to keep his charges keyed up for
the post-season game. The scrim-
mage before loyal home-town fans
is one way of combatting the dol-
drums that inevitably occur in such
long periods of inactivity.
Pleasanton’s Eagles, on the other
hand, will have only a two weeks
layoff. That’s just about the right
length of time for Marvin Young-
blood, star Eagle quarterback and
passer, to recuperate from a pulled
leg muscle.
Long practice sessions without
the relief of full-dress grid battle
were beginning to tell on the
Sharks until Tuesday.
Then “the best blocking and
tackling I’ve seen all season,” Shar-
ky declared, highlighted a scrim-
mage session that afternoon.
The Sharks are all in fine phy-
sical shape and should be rarin’ to
go come next Friday.
When they take the field In
Cuero, the Sharks will have an al-
most all-around advantage over the
Eagles, it appears. Palacios has
tied one game this season while
Pleasanton has lost one by 6-0.
The Sharks’ starting lineup will
boast nine seniors, one junior, and
one sophomore, probably. That
adds up to a lot of experience.
Pleasanton does nearly as well,
though. They will field a starting
lineup sporting seven seniors, two
juniors, and two sophs.
In the line the Sharks will have
a seven-pound per man weight ad-
vantage. Pleasanton’s forward wall
averages out at about 156 pounds
to 162 for Palacios.
Both backfields will have an
average weight of close to 146
pounds to the man. The Eagles’
Clark tips the scales at 122 pounds,
three pounds lighter even than
Palacios’ Rodriguez. Rivers weighs
in at 148, Saenz at 144, and Young-
blood brings the average up with
his hefty 170, 20 pounds heavier
than Gayle, Sardelich, and Bowers,
who all weigh 150.
Local fans are invited to be on
hand to witness the scrimmage
Friday night. It may be the second
to last time they’ll see the 1950
district champions in action. But
all the dope says it will be the
third to last.
DRIVE FOR GIRL
SCOUT FUNDS IS
SHORT OF GOAL
Local Scouts And
Brownies Thankful
For All Donations
Aw, come on, give the girls a
hand!
Latest reports on the Girl Scout
fund drive show that Palacios is
about $270 short of last year’s ac-
complishment.
Only $349 had been collected for
Palacios’ estimated 90 Girl Scouts
and Brownies. That’s just about
$2.76 each.
If the Girl Scouts and Brownies
weren’t so thankful for that $349,
they’d ask you what in the world
they can do on a budget of $2.76
each.
And that’s saying nothing about
the many other girls who would
like to join the two organizations
and would if there were more
adult leaders available.
Contributions may be mailed to
Girl Scouts, Palacios.

Mrs. J. W. Henson, has been named
