LONG VIEW LOBOES HERE
The Longview Loboes will invade
Mineola Friday afternoon hord-
ing for victory. It will be hard
to drive these hungry wolves
from our door, since Longview
Gilmer and Mt Pleasant are tied
for district chamoionsliiD honors.
County, of which Super-
intendent E. J. Hood of Quitman
is chairman, met in Quitman last
Sftuiday. The purpose of the
meeting was to discuss proper
Usi
ar, yet is must oe rememoered
that the- Y. J.'s was the only team
to score on the L-cboes last sea-
son. This is the first time in the
three years that the howling
Loboes have invaded Mineola.
Longview is doped to win, but the
Yellow Jackets are playing their
last game at home and will fight
the Loboes to the end. Eleven
men will be seen in action for
their last time on the home lot.
This season closes the high school
football careers of Shipp, Trigg,
Humphreys, Carraway, Whitten,
Beasley, Moore, Rogers, Black,
Alexander and Chaney.

ON TO WINNSBORO
On Thursday of next week,
Thanksgiving Day to be exact,
Coach Copass and his Yellow
Jackets cohorts journey to Winns-
boro to meet the Winnsboro Wood
chucks in the final grid game
of the current season. To say that
I it will be a battle from kickoff
I to final whistle contains as much
truth as to say that water seeks
its level.
This has been a rather disa-st-
S rous season for both grid teams
i so far as td .rYg victories, but
h.Yn ibe~ "To teams, meet an-
(nualiy c fvYndly rival? as they

j local grid field for which the
Wii as. . i boys ere .isekeag re-
| venge this year. The Winnsboro
J team is much heavier and more
| experienced than the Yellow
Jackets, and playing in their own
pasture, before their home people,
and with a big debt to pay, the
Woodchucks are given the edge
over the Yellow Jackets. But
you never can tell, anything can
happen in football.
The Yellow Jackets will be ac-
companied to Winnsboro by the
Lions Club Band, The Pep Squad,
and scores of foot ball fans. On to
Winnsboro. May the best team
win.

SHIPP RETURNS TO SCHOOL
Warren Shipp, a senior, and-
playing tackle on this year's Y. J.

ren missed the Armistice Day cele
bration, and was out of the two
games with Grand Saline and
Troup. Warren returned to school
Monday. He may see action a-
gainst the Loboes Friday; certain-
ly he'll be in there against Winns-
boro next week.

—THAT TRIP TO TROUP—
The Pep Squad, filled with the
enthusiam which two 'months of
eager waiting caused, marched
down on Troup to show their new
tricks. About fifty uniformed
girls steered themselves in the pot
of praise that hung at the end of
the football game. M. H. S. ,was
highly represented even though
the gods of best fortune deigned
to smile at the husky hustlers of
the Troup grideon. After the
game the smiling vanquished went
to raid the fair city of the East
with the proud drummer Tacy
Bruner, sponsored by Miss Bean.
Tlte thrill of a high school career
comes when on feels that he is
doing something good for his
school, so it was the Pep Squad
that famous day. And so it will
always be, for the Orange Jackets
take great joy in boasting their
school and the secret of it all is,
the letters that coming saying how
well they do their stuff."

Many of the teachers from both
schools are planning to attend
the 50th annual meeting of the
State Teachers Association which
convenes in San Antonio Thanks-
giving and the two days follwoing.
