FIRST NATIONAL BANK OF SAN MARCOS, TEXAS
Hallowe’en Party at
Demonstration Cottage
Prominent among Hallowe'en fes-
tivities on the Hill was the delightful
party given by the hostesses of the
Demonstration Cottage, Wednesday
evening, October 31.
Guests were made to enter the Cot-
tage under a ladder placed in. front
of the door, thus defying the spirits
of ill luck. The house was decorated
in the Hallowe’en motif. Silhouettes
of witches, cats, and other spirits
abroad at such a time were scattered
about in profusion. Lovely baskets
of cosmos and beautiful yellow chry-
santhemums were arranged about the
rooms.
After many Hallowe’en pranks,
among which was the telling of the
guests fortunes by a fearful old hag,
and a hair-raising journey through
weird, winding paths, encountering
grotesque images and frightful nois-
es, the guests played bunco and bridge
for the remainder of the evening.
High score prizes went to Faybert
Martin, Linnie Frederick, Miss Lany,
and Leonard Hart.
Delightful refreshments of punch,
apricot ice in orange baskets, chicken
salad sandwiches, cake and olives were
served.
The guest list included Miss Lay,
Lorna Raby, Tressie Magee, Linnie
Frederick, Mildred Taylor, Ruth Lew-
is, Flora Sutherland, Alton Barrett,
Oscar Smith, Boyd Hill, Maurice Mor-
gan, Porter Lancaster, Rex Smelser,
Faybert Martin, Rankin Waldrip,
Leonard Hart, and Kern Sullivan.
The hostesses of the Cottage were:
Miss Rider, Frances Bost, Lois Stam-
per, Betty Garrett, Vada Belle Sim-
mons, Inez Callicut, and Dorothy By-
rom.
Sophomore Class Does
Interesting Work
For the last six or seven weeks
the sophomore English class of S.W.
T.T.C.H.S., taught by Miss Allison,
has been doing some very interesting
work, mainly theme writing. A few
days ago they compiled all of their
themes into books called “My Pic-
ture Gallery.” The class judged the
books for first, second, and third
places. There were a number of at-
tractive covers, and the theme work
of several was considered good.
The decision of the class was as
follows: First place, Kathryn Wooten;
second place, Gwendolyn Henson;
third place, Mildred Ghamberlin.
The books were judged on their
general outward appearance, neatness,
and theme work.

ed everybody, including themselves,
by fighting the varsity to a stand-
still. However, Coach Strahan did not
send all of his regulars into the fray.
The first half was fought on even
terms, the Scrubs getting in scoring
position at the start of the game,
when Vance returned the kick-off deep
into the Regulars’ territory. The
Scrubs broke their drive with some
poorly executed passes, however, and
except for Morton’s spectacular run
in the ‘ second quarter, were never
able to threaten again. In the sec-
ond period Vance fumbled a punt and
a Regular fell on it on the Scrubs’
12-yard line. From here the ball was
plunged over for a touchdown, Fizzell
going over. Clark missed try for
point. The Scrubs evened the count
in the same quarter when Ward Mor-
ton intercepted a pass on his 40-yard
line and circled the field for a touch-
down. Vance missed try for point.
In the second half the Regulars
showed more power, shoving the ball
deep into the Scrubs’ territory where
it remained rather consistently. When
seriously threatened, the Scrubs were
all fight, so the half ended with
neither team registering a score.
