7-B Clast
Last Tuesday the Junior boys won
a game from the Savages of Oilton.
The score was 12 to 7.
Some of our girls sold candy, pop
corn and soda water.
Mr. Chandler is building an office
in our room. The office will be finish-
ed this week.
We are going to have a first aid
cabinet in our school.
Our Junior High School is improv-
ing more and more every day.
Cira Martinez, Reporter.
6-A Clast
Top soil from Central Texas farms
which was washed down the Colorado
River during the 1934 flood would
raise the level of Bastrop county four
feet if it was spread evenly over that
county, according, to estimates made
by Texas Planning Board flood con.
Irol engineers.
Wednesday we received our report
i aids for the first six weeks period of
our school. Those on the Honor Roll
are Angelica Pena and Isaura Marti-
nez.
We made some geography books
last week. A prize was offered the
student who had the best book. Ange-
lica Pena received the prize, which
was a pretty bluebonnet basket from
the Texas Centennial.
We have another new picture in
our room. It is a large colonial pic-
ture. We placed it on the wall in the
middle of the room. We think it looks
very nice. This picture, along with
some others, was bought by our home
loom teacher, Miss Talkington.
We have varnished our new library
and the shelves in our room. They
iook very nice. We think we have a
pretty room now.
Friday, Oct. 31st, we are going tn
have a Hallowe'en party. We elected
I ilar Carrion as chairman of the so-
cial committee. Other members of
this committee are Zulema Gonzalez
and llda Ramos. They will prepare
some nice games etc., for our party.
We enjoyed the football game
which was played last Thursday by
Oilton and our Junior High team. One
interesting feature was when Marian
Yaeger, who was elected queen of the
football team, presented the captain
with a bouquet of flowers and made
the first kick-off at the beginning of
the last half of the game. The score
was 12 to 7 in favor of Hebbronville.
We are going to play Benavides next
Saturday, over there.
