We think Buddy Boles and David
Coursey deserve lots of credit for
their work in football this year.
Both of these boys have been: unable
to participate in any scheduled! gam-
es this year because of ineligibility,
but they have worked out with the
squad just the same. They will both
be eligible next year, and we know
they’re going to give; a good account
of themselves.
The team of next year will be
heavier and more experienced
than this years squad. So Ama-
rillo, Pampa, Plainvilew and
Brownfield had better lookout!
'Several Cowhands are going to
make some of the Westerners fight
for first string. They are Johnny
Gamble, Bobby Ketron, John Paul
Jones, and “Dingy” Davis.

Coaches Behind Team

ed by the fact that when he came
here as a member of the faculty,
someone got the idea that he was a
Miss Dixie White. A leading beauty
parlor sent him a letter welcoming
him to Lubbock as a member of the
high school faculty and invited him
to come in and get a waveset.
■Coach Price, also graduating from
Lubbock High, was an outstanding
end on Coach Henry Finka’s team
of 1929. For several years he was
the Cowhands’ bitterest opponent
while coaching at Post, Texas. This
year he came to Lubbock High as
coach of the Cowhands and history
instructor.
The Westerners and the school are
truly proud of their coaches.

plans to enter the army after grad-
uating from school mid-term. But
he looks forward to the day when he
can go to Texas Technological col-
lege and play football and prepare
for his career in engineering.
Wlhe asked about his girl friends
and his ideal girl, he blushed a little
and answered, “I’m not talking.”
Jim as did Cuddles like the Temple
game most. For pastimes Slick en-
joys hunting, and playing football
and basketball. He lettered last year
in basketball. In school hours his
favorite “pastimes” are working
mathematics and reading history.
Watch Slick, 72, and Cuddles, 20,
go; to town on the Plainview gridiron
tomorrow.

Those Good Old Days

and all the “fixin’s.” Another thing
that made your mouth water were
those lovely mince meat pies with
their tender, flaky crust and those
pumpkin pies topped with snowy
whipped cream.
The rippling children’s voices
against the background of the deep-
er chuckles of the adults were heard.
That was when there was % war
to think about, and laughter was
plentiful. Jim, Jo, Tom, and Mary
were home then, so was dad. All
the grandchildren were small and
had to eat in the kitchen, but that
did not change the taste of the nour-
ishing food. A warm glow of happi-
ness filled the hearts of more than
one Mother—glad that her son was
safe.
Times have changed now; but still
in the heart of every red-blooded
American is that warm, friendly
gloiw of happiness and thanksgiving
for all that they have. The tables
no longer groan, but there is laugh-
ter still and always shall be; for
without laugh,terthere would be no
happiness, no peace of mind, and
no America.
