I bet we know three couples
who had fun in Houston last Sun-
day night at the circus. Just in
case you would like to know who
they are: Shirley D., Alvin H.,
Babs D., Bill K., Gerry T., and
Gene K.
Phyllis L. and Peggy L. seem-
ed to have had a good time over
the week-end. I wonder why?
Could it be because of Jim Bill
M.?
Did Vivian have fun Friday
nite? Just ask Jack.
Vernon, why so sad? Are those
zeros looking bad?
Frankie couldn’t be the boy
you’re always raving about could
he, Eunice?
Beatrice, don’t wear crepe
when it rains; it might shrink.
Wonder who Joan is always
dreaming about?
Say! Would anyone like to
know what three li’l words can
do to you ?If so, just ask Jean
W. or Elroy H. They know!
Say! Dorris A., you couldn’t be
in the “peanut” business could
you?
Hey! Mr. Props whose the new
girl? Referring to Saturday night,
of course.
Nadine! What hapened to you
Friday night? Tipp, huh?
Dorothy H. did you have a
nice time with Jack C. Friday
night?
Say Joan, Frankie is getting
cuter by the day.
Larry are you making any pro-
gress with Lane?
THE HOMEMAKING CLUB

’50 met the seventh period Thurs-
day, October 13, for the second

ses seventh period our next meet-
ing will be held at the P. E. per-
iod November 10.
PRESS CLUB
The Press Club had its meeting
Monday, at 2:30. We were as-
signed reports and editorials.
Mrs. Sparks dur teacher told us
how to make reports to make
them interesting. She also had
a collegeg paper and a paper in-
titled “The Bear Facts”, a school
paper. Maybe someday we, Sealy
High, will have one of our own.
How would you students like
that? Well, we will tell you
what may help. Everyone’s co-
operation in the activities going
on around S. H. S. What about
that kids????? Let’s start by help-
ing the Press Club members in
their work. This week we are
starting a column “The Senior
of the Week’ ’which will feature
two seniors a week. When the
reporter asks you questions Sen-
iors, answer them; you will be
doing your share. That goes for
everyone.
CAMPUS GAB
Why so gloomy Monday morn-
ing, Alline? Wasnt’ sleeping on
the dance floor enough, or were
you sleeping- It also seems she
has a secret admirer in Waller,
we hear.
How did the burn get on Ro-
bert’s neck? Wonder if some
cowgirl was trying to lasso him?
We haven’t heard much about
the circus. ■ What’s wrong Ger-
ry, Barbara, and Shirley? Didn’t
it prove interesting? If we know
you, it did.
Wonder why the sour notes
were heard on the trombones?
too much week-end boys????

THE HALLOWEEN CARNIVAL
A chilly but happy night mark-
ed the opening of our annual
Halloween Carnival. The won-
derful performance of the High
School Band is to be commend-
ed. The highlight of the occasion
was the Pee Wee football game
which held a victory for the
Public School Cubs. The Cath-
olic School Blue Jays dressed in
their blue and white jerseys
should be praised for their grand
playing. The Blue Jays were de-
feated by the Cubs 21 to 13 but
their spirits were not dampened.
The various booths, operated by
all the different classes-were al-
so a great attraction. The House
of Horrors was the best of en-
tertainment for the Halloween
minded of the crowd, while the
■ picture show rated next. The
bingo stand, glass dishes, dart
board, cake walk, penny board,
milk bottles, bean bag, and the
spinning wheel were also some
of the games which provided
thrills.
Food was not to be forgot-
ten as the P. T. A. served a de-
licious meal of chicken stew.
Hamburgers were also sold. The
different classes sold candy, pea-
nuts, pop-corn balls, and snow
cones.
This carnival was thoroughly
enjoyed by the large crowd which
attended. The students of Sealy
High School thank all who help-
ed make it a success.
NEW STUDENTS
Sealy High extends a welcome
this week to two new students.
They are Deloris Kucera who
joins the freshman class, and Ma-
ry Schoppe who makes the jun-
ior number forty. Deloris is re-
joining her class for the first
time this fall. Mary was a jun-
ior at Tyler High School in Ty-
ler. Welcome to our school De-
loris and Mary. We are glad to
have you among us and hope
you’ll enjoy your days at Sealy
High.
From Mr. Madden’s office this
week we have the request that
students please take more pride
in their school grounds and keep
the papers, gum and candy wrap-
pers, and other trash picked up.
He also expressed the hope that
students would be proud enough
of their new gymnasium to keep
it clean and free from pencil
markings, scratches, and other
signs of mistreatment.
