Back in the days when Iowa not only had pheasants, but each town had its own high school, the town of Mallard had "Ducks" as their mascot.

Laurens, showing the quality of its English department, was the "Elks".

I was always disappointed that Newell didn't go for "Posts".

No crap, Monroe? We'd always go up there for the drive-in movies and cheese.

Well, its not a mascot... but a cute story Dad always told. Supposedly for the time, it was innocent enough for sure, circa 50s probably IIRC. And evidently a true one...

Local small town had a good pitcher. Val Jean Peters (SP?). They were going into play offs and he was injured.

So the tiny community paper had the headline. Cubs play with Peters out.

Thought it was worth a grin.

I went to Robert E. Lee high school, so we were the
Generals. Band wore CSA uniforms, waved the battle flag, and the school song was, of course, Dixie.


Now it would be the Roberto Eduardo Lee fighting Mexicans, and their favorite general is probably Santa Ana.

Same goes for the Robert E Lee HS Rebels from Midland, TX. They went from 4 consecutive (big school) 5A Football State Championships to suffering with the IBM (itty bitty mescins) disease.


It is irrelevant what you think. What matters is the TRUTH.

We were the Highlanders. The coolness and historical significance of which, were over the heads of both our opponents and most of our own student body.

Frisco, TX used to be home to the Fightin' Coons. Sadly, Dallas encroached on it, the place grew and they had to change the name a few years ago.


There is no way to coexist no matter how many bumper stickers there are on Subaru bumpers!
