THE B12-.'S.E... .EQCKET VOL. IV ISSUE I BAKER IUNIOB HIGH SCHOOL NOVQ., 1952 SCHODL Well, gang, it's back to the salt mines again. But you know, it's not really as bad as it sounds. It's really fun! Baker's enrollment surely has in- creased this year. There are just loads of new students here who feel awfully lonely. Let's go all out to make friends with them and make them feel at home! And there BELLS R NG AGAIN are a lot of new teachers at Baker too. lust to name a few there are: Mr. McLemore, Miss Patterson, Miss Mitchell, and Mrs. Farr. Welcome to Baker! Of course, we just couldn't get along in this day and time, Cthe girls couldn't that isl without some cute new boys. Take a gander at that Eddie Kincaid! Also, Leon CHEERLEADERS ELECTED Seems as though there was a little mixup in the business of elect- ing cheerleaders this year. It was to be that each student could vote for one ninth grade girl for cheerleader and one eighth grade girl for alternate. There were five ninth grade groups and three eighth grade groups going out. The girls were on edge all day, waiting to know who the lucky winners were to be. There seemed to be a little talk going around that the election was not fair. A meeting was called by Mr. Dar- nell and Mr. Ieffery, to decide what was to be done. They didn't want anybody to feel like the election was unfair so ,the girls and every- one decided it would be best to have another election. CAnother gray hairl So on Thursday morning the elec- tion began again, and this time the students were to vote on six ninth grade girls and six eighth grade girls. Everyone seemed to be pleas- ed except the groups, who were getting tired of keeping fingers crossed and biting fingernails. The day wore on and seemed as though the girls just had to go to the office to call their mother, or something, anything. Then at sixth period, came the sound, Bong! Bong! And then came the announcement asking all the girls who went out for cheerleader please come to the library. When all the girls were seated and hopes high, Mr. Darnell said, I know you are all anxious to know who your cheerleaders are so here they are! Lizzie Barron, Iocne Ott- mann, Sandra Wade, Bobetta Clay- ton, Gayle Sullivan, and Suzanne Bowling. These are the lucky girls and Baker's proud of them. The alternates are Betty McDan- iels, Lorraine Guerrero, Charlotte White, Martha Smith, and Bettye Sue McGee. Our team is really going to have a big year so let's get behind them and YELL! Campell, Iohnny Garcia, and Mark Beaubien! ! Steady, girls, steady! Now turn about. The boys really couldn't get along without the girls, either, falthough they won't admit it.l Well, there are some real dolls here, such as Mary Ann Goeke, Ianice Stubbs, and Carol Nor- wood. Hubba,, hubba! And that's not half of them! FUTURE HOMEMAKING WEEK November 3rd through 8th will be observed as F.I-I.A. Week.
