Mr. Shultz' boo Happiness Is a Warm Puopy —a best-seller last year —was an attempt to pin down assorted definitions of what makes up happiness for young-'uns. The 65 BUFF raises this question: What makes up high school happiness? Try it on for size: happiness is . . well—what is it? On'the following pages, try your luck with us: do any of our definitions hit the mark? Have we isolated any elements of high school happiness? We've tried!! Our thanks to Mr. Shultz, who kindly gave his permission for us to use his idea, his approach —and his name. '65 BUFF I Here it is: your '65 BUFF. It's the result of an effort to pin-down, microscopically examine, anc establish specific items: the items lhat go together to make up high-school HAPPINESS—and more specifically, HAPPINESS at Bake High. For your 65 Buff staff, HAPPINESS has come from the production of this yearbook, despite the problems involved and the anxieties encountered during its creation. Staff members (reading left to right) Linda Barrow, Lyr West, Matt Eilis, Mike Nutt, Beth Venable, Lady Richa-d, Sue Wilson, Robert Mil'et, Gay,on LandryT Susan Brown. Lynn Cox Nancy Mixon, Cathy McVea, Sandy Pike, Joan Green, Fran Allen, editor. Anna Ruth Store, and Jan Hagan (as we I as John Ellis, Patrica Potts, and Marty Schlicht, who arc not shown) hope you en joy this yearbook, this inauest into the problem: What makes high-school happiness? Hint: Relax and make yourself comfortable. Take lots of time to browse. Read the continued sentences (which sometimes run from page to page). And suddenly you’ll find that you are happy. For, as we have found in working with it. and as you will find in reading it, Happiness is a '65 Buff! 2 he Buff Published by the Buff Staff of Baker High School Anna Ruth Stone Lyn West Editor-In-Chief Picture and Managing Editor Fran Allen Copy Editor and Advertising Manager Lynn Cox Business Manager Robert Millet Mile Nutt Sports Editors Jan Hagan Class Editor Gaybn Landry John Ellis Matt Ellis Photography Joan Green Senior Class Editor Staff—Susan Brown.

Happiness involves a sense of assurance, and a fee ing of satisfaction. And to be satisfied is to be free from uncertainty. Every student at Baker High can have the certainty that his school system is functioning smoothly under the capable hands of Mr. Gene Simmons and Mr. Cyril Landry. Therefore happiness can be, and is, a smooth-working administration. With Mr. Simmons and Mr. Landry on the job, students know that assemblies will be ivcly. pep meetings will be peppy, and other activities wi.l prove snappy and sharp. Like the fine-tuned motor in a new Thunderbird, its smooth power-flow apparent in the happy hum under the hood, the hand-in-g!ove functioning of an effective administration is apparent at Baker High —quietly stimulating the Happiness of all.

Besides aiding students with problems, Mrs. Lucille Bond. Mr. Jerry Boudreaux, and Mr. James Mackey also prepare and adjust schedules, give out occupational information, and advise on the choice of a college or a career. They prepare students fer graduation and help them p on their futures. Being a stranger in a new school can often be a frightening experience. The counselors ease the newcomer into his new life by introducing him to the school campus and students. Though busy as bees, our guidance counselors are on call and arc ready to assist anyone in any way. Mrs. Bord emphasixes rhe advantages of early apslication for admission lo college.

With the aid of the student office wor ers. they answer the phone, check students in and out of school, type and file records, and perform many other tasks that would otherwise occupy cur principals' time. For Baker's office staff, happiness is making sure the administration, faculty, and student body are contented. Mrs. A. B.

Our language is traveling! It has gone out to at least 400.000.0CX) people, who use English almost as well as (and sometimes, better than) we do. For this reason, we can't afford to miss the boat: v e have to take advantage of our English classes and learn as much as we can. The first grader starts his cruise of the language in the alphabet canoe.” He really sets sail when he learns to combine sentences into paragraphs. By the early years of high school, he is at full steam writing essays and themes. And before his high school years are over, the crew on his internationa ocean liner includes William Shakespoare, Charles Dickens, and many of their fellow literary geniuses. The tide which carries these vessels is provided by none other than the English teachers. At Baker High we ride at high tide! Loaning ©vor a student's desk.

History tells us that . . . the Aztec God was Quetzalcoatl, the Spanish American War becan with the sink-irq of the battleship Maine, and the found'ng of Jamestown was in 1607. But history goes beyond this. It is the study of how our government works, the study of how man gets a ong with other men, and the record of nan's progress on earth.

The study of facts and theories ccr cerning the world around us is offered on ever grade level at Baker High School, all the way from 7th grade general science to senior physics. And what do Baker’s students learn in a typ cal science course? In general science, the elementary fundamentals of electricity. In biolog', the anatomy of the frog. In chemistry, the ’how's and what's of chemical equations, in physics, the theoretical principles of light and sound. The door of science at Baker is wide open; a I the student has to do is walk in. Mrs. West poses the question. How many atoms do we obtain by adding sulfur to iron? as Melody Trapman. Jimmy Matichek. and By helping Mike Dickerson and John Kar- Kenny Sumrall ponder over the possible onswers. ras set up and operate an elementary telegraph, Mrs. West teaches her class the fundamentals of electricity. 20 e gateway to the future.

Each mountaineer has a guide—a trained professional in the art of teaching. Here at Baker High, we have the best: every one of them giving willingly of their time and knowledge so that the mountaineer will be better fitted for climbing ever higher after graduation. Trig functions maybe represented as line segments.

Those are the ones who love to sit by a stereo listening to the mellow music of Pablo Casal's cello those who enjoy spending hours at an art exhibit of Picasso's paintings; the ones who find pleasure in a dramatic reading by Lawrence Olivier; and these who relish the flexible voice of Robert Merrill. And where can a high school student find the key to the door of understanding of cur culture? In the fine arts department of Baker High School, of course. In art, the student learns the designing principles essential to composition: through long hours of practice, the chorus and band student increases his appreciation for music; and after master-:ng the fundamentals of acting, the speech student takes an active part in the school p ay. These four—chorus, art, speech, ard band—provide the foundation for fuller, richer, and happier living through the know'edge of fine arts.

One of Shakespeare s most celebrated plays is The Taming of the Shrew, in which Katherine, the shrew, becomes a wonderful wife and homemaker, under the direc;ion of her husband Petruchio. At Ba er High School, we have two tamers, Mrs. Roberts and Mrs. Boudreaux, who turn out capable young ladies, destined to become an integral part of society, though starting as not-so-capable school cirls.' However, in the case of Mrs. Roberts' and Mrs. Boudreaux's pupils, the girls arc not as opposed to the idea of becoming gracious as Shake-soeare's Katherine was. Baker High's students of home economics learn about French seams, cream of tartar, Danish Modern furniture, and many other topics touched on in Home Ec. I-IV. In the end, Petruchio had a prize for a wife: and so will the lucky young men who get these products of Home Economics. All girls know tho thrill of showing off their new spring outfits.

If one should unknowingly wa k into the Industrial Arts ba lding, he would undoubtedly be amazed by the large variety of machinery and tools displayed here and there. The more he observed the more he would see how these tools aid the students who schedule Industrial Arts. Whether it be mefal craft, woodworking, mechanical drawing, or ceramics, these people, under the able instruction of Mr. Champagne and Mr. Bowman, learn many skills which will help them succeed in the fast-moving world in which we live. Mr. Bowman assists Toby Lanqlois in lacing a comb case in leethorcraft class. Mr. Willie Bowman 27 Carl 3rou$$ard works diligently to make a wallet from a strip of leather. Mr. Joseph Champagne Physical Education has a unique job - building sound bodies. Down-two-three four, up-two- three-four . . No. this isn't the count to a new dance step. It s the count to a new exercise that Miss Bovard is using to get the girts at Baker into excellent physical condition. If you should happen to accidentally walk into the boys gym during class, you would probably see the boys doing what they call the 'killer-exercise, lifting the feet six inches from the floor and holding them there for thirty seconds. And how about that shrill whist e Mrs. Ritchie uses when her 7th and 8th grado girls are playing an exhilarating gome of volleyball! As all the students at Baker High School can sure'y tell you, the physical education program at dieir school is a particularly strenuous and invigorating one, but is reole with a number of funsies,” like boxing, basketball, archery, football, soccer, swimming and recreational genes. These along with calisthenics and subjects like first aid and health, go into the making of a well-rounded physical education program. Certainly the ingredients are all there—useful equ’pment, interested teache'S, and a cooperative student body. Do you have problems, Miss Bovard? Some of thoso tost papers are harder for her to grado than for the studont to ta co. Miss Bovord instructs her class on how to string o bow, while Ramona Wolls, Cynthia Dyer and Mary Lou Eckert look on.

Can ycu understand the above? if you don’t, you could take a trip fo Spain or France, but it would be quicker and cheaper to sign up for a Spanish or French course at Baker High School. Then after completing one of these courses, you rea'ly could go to France or Spain and have a lot of fun and have a sense of security. (What would you do if you were lost and didn't know how to say Help!') Study a foreign 'anguage and you’il feel at ease: you'll be a man of the world.''

And when Hey transpose the letter on a typewriter, even Casca would understand it. Keeping organized books and records may seem, to the uninformed, as complex os President Johnson's job. But not to Baker's students of commerce. Of course these students are not commercial wizards. Under the ab'e direction of Mr. A. B. Allday, typing instructor, Miss Mary Allison, shorthand and bookkeeping teacher, and Mrs. Earline Roberts, typing and shorthand teacher, these students are getting exce'lent preparation for their command performance before the business world.

Hundreds of Baker High students agree with this statement. For evidence, just poke your nose info the library at any hour during the school day. and observe the diligent students reading (perhaps for a boo-review) such books as Lad, A Dog or maybe taking notes from the Encyclopedic Britannica. Notice Mrs. St. Julien as she directs a new seventh grader to t-e biography section of Carl Sandburg s analyses of Abraham Lincoln. And pee-around the corner through the opon door, and see Mrs. Barrow (our new librer assistant) industriously typing cards and book envelopes so rewly arrived books can get into circulation soon.

That's what you must have to survivo in this hjstling, bustling world full of speeding maniacs. And that's just what the studon's in Drivers’ Education are being taught —self de;ense. Besides keeping the art of being a safo driver through practice, they havo six-weeks of book work, in which thoy are taught the various rules and regulations they must follow when behind •he wheel. 8ut, just as important, they find that the other fellow doesn't a'ways know what he’s doing, or can't always account for his actions. Then, it becomes the responsibility of tho good driver to watch out for these people. Seem like a lot of material to learn and prac'ice in just one course? Sure it is. But, with firo teachers like Mr. Boudreaux. Mr. Jon-nings, and Mr. Blockor, our studonts will be able to go out onto America's speodways, secure in the knowledge that they aro defensive drivers. Mr. Jerry Boudreaux Not only does Mr. Boudreaux teach defensive driving, but he encourages tho use of seat belts. (By the way the Driver's Ed. car won't start until tho belts are hooked—they're wired to the ignition!) 34 Happiness a varieti 1 SSJ CLASSES 35 At last a Senior - What was it like? What did you do?

Honor Qociety promotes leadership The Pinnacle Chapter of the National Honor Society is so called because its membership consists of Ihose who have outstanding achievements in the fields o: scholarship, leadership, service, and character. To be eligible a student must have a 3.5 average or higher at the end of three semesters of high school work or by the sophomore year. The Honor Society is not a service club, but rather an organization to honor outstanding students. The officers of the local chapter are as follows: David Rogillio, President; Cyndi Dyer, Reporter and Vice President; Sharon Bradley, Secretary and Treasurer. National Honor Society Presiaont David Rogi lio discusses with Mr. Simmons a method for promot ng better study habits throughout the school. 88 Dolira Jackson receives a r'bbon from Sandy Pike for maintaining a B average for the si weeks. Beta honors outstanding students. members from the junior and senior classes, demands a B average or better from them, and makes the stipulation that they must be first nominated by a teacher and then voted on by the club? The answer, of course, is the National Beta Club. The Beta Club is a national student organization pledged to uphold schoo' standards by helping to promote superior achievement in scholastic activities, character, and leadership.

Of what club are you reminded by the word service? Service is the midd'e name of this organization—service to both school and community. Next, take the word boys—that's what this club is made up of—boys in the -enth through twelfth grades—except for the sweethearts, of course, who are Susan Kline. Lyn West, Sharon Boyd, and Pam Cayton. Now you arc getting closer to the answer? For another hint try the word quality. The members of this club must possess excellent qualities of leadership and character. For the final clue use the word procedure—that procedure which must be followed to become a member of this organization. A student must be nominated by a member and then voted on by the entire organization. It is only after this action, if he is fortunate, that the nomi-ree attains membership into one of the greatest service clubs at Baker High School—the Key Club.

Thus the original copy of the Constitution of the Industrial Arts Club states its purposes, and the Baker High School c ub this year under the competent leadership of Mr. Champagne has fulfilled these objectives, while at the same tirro helping the entire school to p'ogress.

A rew club can make a place for itself among the old stand-bys. For proof, just look at the Baker Hi-Y Club, formed the later part of the 63-‘64 school year. It is a public service organization sponsored by the Y.M.C.A., having a platform emphasizing clean speech, clean living, good sportsmanship, and good scholarship. It strives to promote and extend throughout the home, school, and community high standards of Christian character. One of their many projects, the rostorbeard. can be seen hanging over the door of the Boys’ Gym. For sell ing the most candy in East Baton Rouge Parish during the v orld-wide Hi-Y candy sale, the club was presented wtih a beautiful trophy. The money they raised was given to the Y.M.C.A. to support its many service programs. Despite being a newly organized club, the members •lave worked to make their club one of the most active and aggressive clubs in the school. Their work hasn’t oec i in vain, for these members say.

These two clubs provide a variety of projects, ranging anywhere from sewing and ccoking to farming and landscaping. Those who do exceptional work in their heme clubs compete at the State Fair in Shreveport. If given a high enough rating there, they are eligible for ration-wide competition in Chicago, Illinois.

Because she s the sponsor of the Art Club, which has been very active this year keeping the bulletin board in the lobby lively and attractive, doing the Christmas play scenery, and catching the spirit of each season on the glass window in the library. Some of the members even decorated win-dosvs in Delmont Village for Halloween. But the big accomplishment came when the Baker Art Club took honors in parish competition on fire prevention posters. However, as Mrs. Hopper will tell you, art is more than drawing and painting: it is a creative approach to living. This Is shown by the threefold purpose of the Art Club: to become a definite part of Baker High School and its activities, to train high school students in the art fields, and to promote creative thinking that will enable the student to prepare for the future. To live up to these purposes means a lot of hard work. And the Art Club has really been busy. Don't you think? Officers—Jo nice Holl. Linde Boll. Grelcten Himmel.

Singing means music; music means the chorus Ta ent! That's what the Baker High School chorus has. And loads of it, too. Its members are al! dedicated young people—dedicated to the art of transforming the human voice into fine music. They attain this g eat feat at every one of the several functions they attend, whether it oe an informal program at school or a Christmas show for television. They brighten up many a concert and hold their audiences spell-bound by their delightful harmony. Under the able leadership of Mrs. Mar'orie Becker, director, the chorus is steadily improving itself and striving toward perfection. The officers of the Chorus are Jackie Duffield, President; Jackie Vickers, Secretary-Treasurer: Anna Ruth Stone. Librarian.

Ho belongs to tho Industrial Arts Club and plays football and runs track: he was selected as class favoriro during his sophomore year.

Studont Council President. F.H.A. Beoj. Jr. Class Roportor. Sr. Class President. Red Cross, ond Annuol Staff Photographer. And besides this, he finds time to look his best. Who a guy! And. just glance at Linda Boatman, looking just as neat and sweet as can be.

Thoy'ro tho wittiest coucle at school being witty. Actually, they're poking a bit of tun at Stanley Johrson and Mary Lou Eckert, the most athletic boy and girl. It seems as ‘hough Stanley and Mary Lou can't quite make it up the tree. Their goal? Those bananas Mike and Joan are eating. But wha they don't know is that Stanley and Ma Lou are extremely active, both in sports end other events. Besides playing football, basketbell. baseball, and track our most athletic boy is a member of Key Club, of which he is secretary. ond the Stjdent Council. Ho was also enosen Mr. 8.H.S. and. how about Mary Loj? Besidos serving as Captain for the Girls' 3askotbal Team ana playing softba I. she is a member of tho Speech Club. She has serve- as Secretary-Treasurer of the tenth, eleventh and twelfth grades and secretary of the Student Council. She is olso the ceptain of the Cheerleaders. She has been the queen of many functions, including Baker's Homecoming. East Baton Rouge Parish Homecoming, the Carnival Ball, and Miss B.H.S. But. Joan and Mike aren’t lazy-bonos themselves. Mike is active n the High -Y. hc Industrial Arts Club and the Student Council. Joan serves as Senior Class Editor on the Buff Starr and plays volleyball for the school team. She was also elec‘ed Homecoming Honor Ma:d. But. most important, they possess that extra little something that makes people want to throw back thoir heads and laugh—wit! And here it looks as though everyone is hav'ng mo-e fun than a barrel full (tree rull] of monkeys. A plethora of personalities abound in the junior high section of BHS Guess who's the cream of the crop in the Junior High this year! Why. the Junior High Personalities, of course. Essentially, there's no difference between the seniors and tho seventh and eighth grade's when it comes to selecting personalities—the methods of election ore identical: the categories are the same. Selection comes from a popular vote of the entire Junior High student body. The catego'ies ore: Most Intelligent, Prettiest and Most Handsome. Wittiest. Most Talented, Cutest, Best Dressed, Most Athletic, and Most School Spirit. Now, let's spotlight each category and see who's who in the Junior High. Most Intelligent - Best Looking Shorry Wales and Clifford Copen—the Most Intelligent girl and boy in the junior high—are bo ding e huge dictionary between them. Although having begun to read only a few minu es before this p'eture was taken, they aro almost through which goes to prove that to bo the most Intel igort at school. you need brains—end dash. 3ut, what does it toko to be the Most Handsome bey or tho Prettiest girl? That's easy: good looks. And. from the looks of things, it seems as though Larry Debate: and Sandra Arnold are we I dosorving of their respective tit’es. 118 Wittiest - Most Talented Jack be nimble. Jack be quick. Now. let's see. Who's got the most wi ? In the olden days the court jester was the little fellow who made up rhymes and songs so that he might please the king. But today, and here at our school, it's Peggy Antoline and Jimmy Spruell, the wittiest girl and boy in the Junior High— thoy plcaso all! Along with the court jester, there were wandering minstrels, who camo in and played their flutes or lyros for tho palace members. But times have changed since then. The flute is now a ukulele: the lyre is a guitar, and the minstrels at Baker arc Callio Winn and Wayne Hagg—the most talented couple in th9 Junior High. Here they play a mourn:ul dirge while Peggy and Jimmy have a little fun. II9 Cutest - Best Dressed Have you heard about Mona McCulloch and Keith Kennedy? They're the cutest girl and boy in the seventh and eighth grade. They possess all the qualifications necessary to male the claim to their title valid. And who are the two best dressed s’udents in the Junior High? Why. Bennie Noblos and Debb:e Owen, naturally. A. anyone can plainly see these two are certainly qualified for tho-title. A neat appearance and a pleasant personality—That's why Bennie and Debb'e were chosen. Most Athletic - Most School Spirit Can anyone gjess what Deedie Pugh and Milo Wost are doing? Thoy're cheering the team of Karen Singleton and Jimmy Schilcht on to victory. Deedie. an active cheerleader and Mile, an avid sports fan, wero chosen by popular vote of their classmates, as the two sludents with the most school spirit, while Karen and Jimmy, a team for which there is no match, have the distinction of being the most athletic couple in the Junior High. Decisions by the judges - Among the tremor and excitement of the beauty pageant, there sit three seemingly calm people—the judges. But, their outward appearances don't accurate!y tell of the activity within their minds. They are the ones to decide who shall be queen; their decision must be made with extreme care and consideration. Judges for this year's beauty pageant we'e Mrs. Jean Wheeler, of Midday in Louisiana; Carolyn Berthelot. a former Miss Louisiana, who owns and ooerates a music studio in Bator Rouge, and Mr. John Boudreaux. These people kindly consented to put out their time and effort to judge our best beauty pageant and, from the looks of things, did an exce lent job. Dobbie Mixon, second runnor-up in the junio- hiqh division, surveys tho situation sentimentally— How wonderful it was to bo a part of all this!

Mrs. Jean Wheeler, and Miss Carolyn Berthelot. Presenting . . . Her Majesty Mirror, mirror on the wall, who's the fairest of them all? In the o d fairy tale it was Snow White. But here, at Baker High School, it is Deiira Jackson, Senior Queen for 1965. B'ue eyes, auburn hair, and a fair complexion are only three factors in Delira's great beauty. She transforms any dress into a ball gown with her beauty. She likes people; people like her. Her friends jokingly refer to her as D. J.‘ or Stonewall. Beauty and a pleasant personality—these features constituted the basis on which the beauty pageant was judged, so surely Delira, can lay a very good ard valid claim to the Queenship. Delira is active in and out of school. She is a member of the Beta and Speech Clubs, the F.B.L.A., the F.T.A., and the F.N.A. She’s an avid surfer and loves anything out-of-doors, especially horseback riding and swimming. She craves the Beatles and sports cars.

To go places and meet new people. But, her interest in people is a two-way deal: people are interested in her too. Certainly the judges were because they chose her as queen, a- But. people research isn’t her only pastime. This petite, hazel-eyed brunette also loves to swim and ride horses. She is an active member in the Junior High 4-H and. like most girls, she doesn't relish homework. She really does prove that good things do come in small packages! Whot does she like io read? Good things do come in small packages! whether to make fudgo or brownies. Beauty sparkl What would a beauty pageant be without a lovely court to add to its alluring radiance? The court adds glamor to the queen's beauty: the maids o: honor share all the glories and honors of being chosen an ou standing beauty. Just as the cueen herself does, the maids of honor possess a title; they rank just a fraction behind her. Without the contribution of the 1965 court to the splendor of the ceremonies, the B.H.S. Annual Beauty Pageant would have failed to make its usual impac: on the calendar for '65. CYNTHIA DYER 128 JACKIE DUFFIELD KATHY ROBERTSON es throughout B.H.8. Cynthia Dyer ...

JUDY HARLESS I ! 129 ANN BAILEY DEBBIE MIXON The glamorous highlights the football season is the homecoming court. Being a member of the Baker High Homecoming Court is a special honor for those selected. To be a member of this court, a girl must be judged by those who know her best—her classmates. The queen and her honor maids are nominated from the senior class; the junior maids are nominated from homerooms and then voted on by the entire student body. The court chosen sparkles and glitters in the Homecoming Parade with its many colorful 'oats. As the evening wears on, and the festivities continue, the queen holds her court at attention as the football team fulfills its obligations. Then after witnessing a hard fought game, the queen waves her magic wand to begin the climax of the day's captivating joility— the Homecoming Dance. Hacpincss is being a Homecoming Queen like Mary Lou Eckert. 131 Picture ou' photogenic crowd—Queen Mary Lou Eckert and her court: Cynthia Dyer.

Here at Baker—the winning team may net have evolved in 1964, but every single player was a wirer —a stick-with-it-, gritty young man, cr a driving, striving young woman. And one guess as to who's responsible or this—the coaches! Whether it's in victory or defeat, Baker's coaches have demonstrated their perspicacity.

With eleven lettermen and a group of enthusiastic seniors, juniors, and sophomores reporting on August 15th for spring training, Coach Jennings and his assistants began to put the Buffs through rigorous physical training. Although they made superb performances throughout the season, overpowering odds such as numerous casualties and unfortunate circumstances continually caused the tide to turn on the Buffs. The saying goes, You can't keep a good man down. and the Baker Buffs, having every reason to let their feelings of despair overpower their desire to represent their school, forged ahead to complete their season as true patriots. ' It has also been said that It is not whether you win or lose, but how you play the game.' If one group of boys ever upheld this old adage, it was the Baker football team, for these boys not only played the game well, but did so under trying circumstances. They completed the season with hardly any area or district recognition, but in the eyes of most Baker students these unsung heroes performed like state champions.

What's the best way to become a Baker High School Track star? Any track member will tell you come up through the ranks by starting in Jr. High school and practicing long hours for three or four years. Thus the 65 Jr. Varsity track team led by Coach Ralph Davis, is on its ay to fame, and m.gH well make it.

We always seem to wonder such things when one of our 65 Buff men comes up with a spectacular play, such as pitching a nc hitter, plucking that bn I out of mid-air just at the moment when everyone thought another point was oeing scored against Baker, making the double play that will win the game for us. or may'oe gambling on the chance to steal a base and making it. But why wonder— we know this year’s team are pro's: the only difference is that they get paid with satisfying gratitude from the avid baseball fans at Baker and the sense of a job well done instead of money. The former payment is the best because money can't buy everything espec ally the fame shared by all members of the team among their fellow students and supporters. Who knows, we just may have another Babe Ruth on our team. Typical of tho integrities of the officionada of baseball (playing it. not only watching it), is Bobby Phillips. The expression on his face clearly shows his determination to get out end get into the game. This year ' baseball team is pictured as follows, from left to right: (bottom row) Bobby Phillips.

The Best Who ore the lively ones ? At Baker High, they are the members of the cheering squad. These eight girls went through o vigorous training period last summer, preparing themselves to keep up with the charging Buffa’o Spirit. During the football season, they worked up pom-pom routines, stunts, and skits and organized their yells to the peak of perfection. Among the very spirited ones are Mary Lou Eckert, captain; Lyn West, co-captain; Suzi Eckert; Dyan Laird; Debi Fontenot; Linda Gail White: and Linda Barrow.

If all the facts were known and all the votes were counted, the results would probably come back unanimously in favor of the Baker High Pepsters. Under the able leadership of Miss Pat Bovard sponsor, the Pepsters participate in a wide diversity of activities which help to belter the school, the community, and themselves. They can be seen in the stands at every fcotbs’ game, cheering the team on. The pep squad sells tickets for various benefit programs and serves as guides at P.T.A. meetings. They hold an annual Easter egg hunt for children in our community, and give Christmas parties at a local orphanage. Parades are spiced up a bit by these lively lassies, and homecoming festivities have been graced with their prize-winning floats. Each year they present to the school and community several innovations, such as the drum corps and the dance squad. Also they sponsor spirit week and improvements needed to be made around the school. Meetings are held throughout the year which feature guest speasers who present tips on hair care and clothes fashions; tips which help the girls, both individually and as a whole. So, as anyone can readily see, the Pepsters are busy ard versatile bees, serving the school and community in any way they can. Officers for this year are Captain—Cynthia Dyer: Co-Captain—Susan Kline; Secretary-Treasurer—Cathy McVea; Reporter-Historian—Diane Higginbotham; Squad Captains—Gail Anglin, Martha Pugh, Cheryl Ccsteilo, and Lady Richard. 170 Af.or wests of ha-d wort, the Pepstors captured third place wlrh this on your side.
