The high school F. F. A. Chapter

eral plan of a signpost, the exhibit

management, Phosphorus, potash,
iron calcium and manganese were
very low or absent in (he tests con-,
ducted to date. ;

Special Pep Rallies Held.
Last Friday night's game was pro-
ceeded (at early morning pep rallies
and on Friday afternoon) by a series
of talks by some of this year's squad.
Tuesday morning the speakers were
Weldon Bonnot, Perry Campbell, and
Victor Rodriquez. Wednesday’s speak-
ers were L. J. Korenek, Babe Me
Dowell, and Putter Putnam. At the
Friday morning rally Dick Cos-
per, Warnie Flournoy and Ed Knopp.
The afternoon pep rally had a series
of speakers. Included were Coach
_Zim, Mr. Hayes, Howard Mascheck,
Arlan Crisp, Claude McDonald, Roht.
Nairn and Boh Stovall.
The Friday afternoon pep rally
was made especially good by a band
concert made up of special request
numbers for members of the foot-
ball team.
Kominents From Tli’ Korrml.
Although that Jackson County dew
(for the benefit of foreigners we mean
rain) nearly washed the football en-
thuiasts out of their seats and the
players off the field, the Cowboys
managed to wade through to a 27 to
0 victory over Karnest City. And
for this feat, our salute of the week
goes to Coach Zim and Ills fighting
Cowboys.
What Hire* freshmen girls lost
their why while riding with fonr ex-
students and finally wound up in a
secluded cemetery? Now everyone
knows that accidents like that don’t
just happen. It seems one of these
fish girls had to retire early and so
missed some of the adventure.
A certain senior girl, not long ago,
stated that she wouldn't ever go
steady like other girls; but it seems
the excuse she gave when asked for
a date was that her steady wouldn't
approve. Of course, the IJndberg
lass wouldn’t know anything about
this. (*',
It looks as If “Tootsie” Templln and
D. Madero have rekindled an old ro-
mance with their Sunday night date.
Incidentally, Lu-Lu Watson isn’t
out of the picture.
“Sleepy” Jordan will probably be
caught sleeping through all " his
classes this week. It seems he woke
up this week end and was
awake long enough for a Saturday
night whirl with Alice Green, and a
Sunday night ride with Patsy Pow-
ers, a fish babe.
Alice Green declared our-rlgh’t that
she didn't miss' Sleepy at all Sun-
day night. Could this be because
she was escorted by P. Campbell?
Could he.
ATTENTION BOYS; If you are
afraid to walk your girl to her door
alone, call 103. Phil Thomasson will
he glad to come to your aid. For
references, ok Eudie Coward and
“Red”, Wiegand.
Vernon Sowell seems to have miss-
ed something Wednesday night. Bil-
lie Rue Cadwell was seen with a
Cowboy ex-guard (Fred Pseneik.)
When Russell Seller was asked
where his class ring was, lie blushed
and stuttered, “aw, I ‘jest’ left. It at
home.” We bet!
Gladys Ilessong has been walking
on clouds this week. Maybe It’s be-
cause she adores black convertibles
and a boy from Lolita.
Continuing his cradle rocking,
Phil Thomasson had a date with
Patty McDowell Saturday night. She
may come from a cradle, but what
a load bawl she packs.
Dr. Ii. W. Wells was a Sail Antonio
visitor the last week end.

H Team Runs Over Ganado
B Team.
The hard-fighting, hard-charging Ed-
na B team, last Wednesday night de-
feated Ganado's B team 12-0. Cana-
da's only serious threat came when
one of their players ran 67 yards,
only to be brought down by Cole on
the 8 yard line. The Edna line stif-
fened and’ held for downs.
Edna’s first touchdown came when
Cole ended a long drive by going
over for the touchdown. The try for
point was ao good, la the third
period Edna scored the last time
when Jones ran 57 yards behind
beautiful interference.
Although everyone played a good
game, the outstanding defense men
were Campbell, Gandy, Thompson,
Coward and Jordan.
Tlie 1! team showed very good
Mocking and running. They ran, In
most of tlie second half, consistently
against a nine man line. Coward
averaged about 0 yards every time
he got the ball.*
Except for a few mistakes, the B
team played good bull, and every-
one should he proud of them for hav-
ing beaten Edna’s old rival, Ganado.
Rustlers Lose to Termites in
Double Header.
The Rustlers went down in defeat be-
fore the strong Termite teams last
week on Wednesday afternoon. The
first game ended with the Termites on
the very large end of the score 34-0.
The second game was different, how-
ever. The Termites really had to
fight for what they got. The second
gnme ended with Victoria 13 and Ed-

lie Dugger invited Mr. Tinker to
have charge of the Rotary program.
Mr. Tinker ,in turn, invited two of

BIoop! Bleep!
There! They’ve done it again ! Led

ing drum major, “Phyllis” Thomas-

It Band presented another of its epic
making performances at the half
during the gnme between the Edna
and Ganado 15 teams.
Among their more accomplished
feats was an Indian War Dance and
a solo duet by “Phyllis,” I. T. Tay-
lor, and Joyce Price. With Dot Den-
arii and Joyce Kennedy trying to run
away, Carolyn Constant blatting the
bass, and Ann Walker at the dedouble
bass drums, the band swooped down
and around the field to beautiful
melodies, for a truly inspirational
performance.
