The sixth graders from St. Rose of Lima Catholic School in Schulenburg enjoyed a wonderful field trip to the Texas Czech Heritage & Cultural Center in La Grange on Tuesday, Oct. 1. They enjoyed learning about Czech traditions, the language, and culture. After touring the TCHCC Main Building, Museum, Library, and Wallachian Belfry, they toured the Czech Music Museum and SPJST Hall. Then they enjoyed eating some famous homemade czech-style chicken noodle soup, sandwich, kolache, crackers and bread. Closing out the day, students toured the Czech Village, observed a working printing press, shelled and grinded corn, and finally watched a hay press and Sawmill run. What a fabulous day it was.

Stymied for 44 minutes, the Weimar Wildcats blew La Grange’s Leopards apart with two passing bombs at Weimar on Friday to produce a shocking 14-13 victory that left them perched atop the District 25AA standings with a 3-0 record. It was the burly Wildcats’ sixth straight win for the season and by far the closest they came to losing a game. Early in the game, the Leps dominated the field, scoring twice on passes from Neal Miller to Johnny Johnson. The La Grange team stonewalled the Wildcats throughout the second half as Weimar repeatedly got good field position. The clock showed 4:37 when Wildcat Steve Anders intercepted his second pass. Otis Henry took a handoff, dropped back and heaved a mighty throw to Larry Henry, who simply took the ball away from three La Grange defenders down at the 36, making a pass that travelled at least 50 yards in the air.
