VALLEY, at Vcmon, I9-7, REGIONAL, November 28. Baird took the long ride to Vemon the clay after Thanksgiving to try to get their fill of Turkey. Baird was the underdog by 14 points and was playing the national record-holding quarterback in Kurt Saul. Saul had thrown 54 touchdown passes up until the Baird game. The first half was a defensive battle on the most part. Baird did move the ball but never could seem to get the ball into the end zone and went in at halftime tied 0 to 0. Baird pulled out all stops in the second half by faking a punt with a pass from Parkhill to Bums to set up the first score. Parkhill went the final one yard to give Baird an early lead. Morrison kicked the extra point for a 7 to 0 lead. One minute later, Bums caught Saul's last touchdown pass for a touchdown for Baird giving the Bears a 13 to 0 lead. Valley came back to score making it 13 to 7. Parkliill threw to Payne for the last points of the game giving Baird a 19 to 7 victory and the f'u'st Regional Cham- pionship for Baird in the history of the school. Parkhill and Bums led the team in tackles, but the whole defense should be congratulated especially Bell and Gilliland for containing Saul. Baird had 439 yds. total offense to 224 for Turkey Valley.

He taught in the Marathon, Eula, Clyde and Baird Independent School Districts. He was deeply loved and respected by all who knew him. . Give us men. Good men. Men with true faith, strong minds, heroic hearts and ready hands. Men whose feet have a way of sticking to the path of duty. Men who are as hard as a rock and as soft as a flower. Men who are as steady in their pursuits as the sun is in the heavens. Honest men to whom bribes have no appeal. Men who have a will, who refuse to be putty, shaped and fashioned by the world's fancy. Men who are willing to stand up and be countedg who though the odds are against them still stand. Because they are men.
