Spring Break weather in March is a crap shoot some years, but it’s looking good this year. Spring temperature averages range from a high of 69.9 degrees Fahrenheit (21.1 degrees Celsius) in Florida to a low of 24.7 °F (-4.1 °C) in Alaska. For the entire United States, excluding Hawaii and Alaska, the season averages 52.0 °F (11.1 °C). Overall, March features above-normal temperatures on average in most areas with cooler-than-normal readings limited to the western United States, Quebec, and British Columbia. March 27 March 18 March 19 March 20 March 21 March 22 March 23 Texas is loaded with Spring Break spots Texas ranks No. 5 in the United States for great Spring Break weather with an average tempera- ture of 69F. That’s not exactly plunging in the Gulf of Mexico in a bikini type of weather, but warm enough to spend a week in the sun before returning to the classroom for a few more weeks of school. Living near the Gulf is a big advantage when it comes to Spring Break. There are many miles of beach shoreline in Brazoria County and Surfside for those who want to combine the beach with dining. And, the world-famous Galveston Island is only an hour’s drive away. That should satisfy anyone’s Spring Break cravings. Stroll down the Seawall, hit up Schlitterbahn Water Park, or explore the exhibits and attractions at Moody Gardens. Other spots are Corpus Christi, home to the Texas State Aquarium, South Texas Botanical Gardens and the USS Lexington, all of which are great places to explore. Corpus is about three hours from Brazoria County. If you are going there, you might as well stop by Port Aransas with a beach perfect for building sand castles, sunbath- ing, fishing, bird watching and shell hunting. And for hard-core spring break- ers, there is always South Padre Island, about seven hours by car from the county. Sunshine should be abundant everywhere. www.mybulletinnewspaper.com (979) 849-5407 March 16, 2021 THE BULLETIN Page 3 Strange but True By Bill Sones (We sure didn’t.) visitors to become better stewards and Rich Sones, Ph.D. Happy zoo animals of the Earth.” Having a blast with grapes Q.

    The Hall of Honor and the Move to Tier One Athletics By Debbie Z. Harwell rom its earliest days, the University of Houston rose to Fthe top in athletics—not in football or basketball as you might expect, but in ice hockey. The team competed for the first time in 1934 against Rice Institute in the Polar Wave Ice Rink on McGowan Street. It went undefeated for the season, scoring three goals to every one for its opponents. The next year, only one player returned, but the yearbook reported that they “represented a fighting bunch of puck- pushers.” They must have been because the team had no reserves and played entire games without a break.1 The sports picture changed dramatically in 1946 when the University joined the Lone Star Conference (LSC) and named Harry H. Fouke as athletic director. He added coaches in men’s tennis, golf, track, football, and basketball, and a new director of women’s athletics focused on physical education.

The old Stephen F. Austin Hotel, where I stayed for the first five years at the tournament was remodeled and renamed. The cost became outrageous there, so we no longer enjoyed staying downtown. Today the Hotel is called InterContinental Stephen F. Austin. Visiting Sixth street became popular and I continued to eat at the Waterloo Ice House. The main attraction in those days was playing at Gregory Gym on the campus of U.T. We always had great pickup games at the student activity center, located right next to Gregory. Jogging was also another passion of mine. Town Lake provided great running trails just south of downtown Austin. Coaching clinics became the norm, as I continued to learn the game. Great times. The person who had the greatest impact on my life was my brother-in-law. This book is dedicated to him. At the age of 10, he began coming over to the house dating my older sister. He was like a family member. For the next twenty years he influenced all aspects of my life.
