To the Jackets’ credit, they absolutely never quit. Their resolve to rally was the reason they turned what would have been a bad setback into a 27-24, Homecoming victory over winless Salado.
But…did they ever escape. In another era, you could have walked by a couple of guards and swam out of Alcatraz easier.

The book fair will be open each day from 7:30 A.M.
Kim Roberti, an accomplished artist, will be presenting a demonstration on figures in oil at the Llano Fine Arts Studio on October 5 at 10:00 a.m.

Kim claims painting has become her life.

SB 7 was passed in response to a 1992 Texas Supreme Court ruling that the Legislature needed to create a new school finance system in order to comply with the constitutional provision for an “efficient system of public free schools.” Since property-poor school districts had fought for funding equity amongst sch ...
