MOTEL KITCHEN APTS. 60I0 N. Lamar Phone 5-39013 IAMES FREY SPORTS PERSONALITY Where there's smoke, there's tire and where there's Liz Barron, there's Palooka Frey. Palooka las all his friends call himl is Captain of the football team and plays the position quarterback. Football's his favorite sport, but he's also good at track. Pa1ooka's favorites are Mr. Sallee as a teacher, green and white as colors, and Liz Barron as his one and only. I-le plans to attend A. of M. and later to be a test pilot. It you don't know Palooka, my advice is to meet him. You'll be glad you did. Baseball Fever Around October lst every year there is a great event in the lite of every true sports fan. It is called the World Series and caused such comotion in Baker this year the teachers were wishing they could lay their hands on the guy that in- vented baseball. Why just the other day I heard one teacher ask the other if she owned a knife and the address of Abner Doubledays lthe guy that invented the national pas- timel address? All kidding aside the world series carries a lot of excit- ment from Maine to California and Washington to Florida and is still considered one of the sports ever invented. Iapan has also adopted this sport as their National Pastime. .' 4 Baker-Allan Game The largest crowd in history, 3,500 fans attended the lunior High School City Conference Football race on Thursday, October 2. . ' Allan made the first touchdown in the first halt. The score was than Allan 6 and Baker U. V Baker didn't manage to cross the double stripe, until the second halt, made by Lester Kitchens, going from the nine yard line. A The drive started on the Allanf 32. Palooka Frey kept the ball andgot it to the 22. Don Keeling swept on to the nine were Kitchens took it over for the score. Kitchens also made the extra point. Allan came through with a clean, clear run and a long pass, for an- other touchdown, this made the score Baker, 13 and Allan 12. That was the final score. Lester Kitchens, Clyde Boling and lames Frey played a fine game in the backfield, while Irvin Rawls, David Warner, lack Secord, and Wiley Wyman really looked good in the line. We have Eddie Kincaid, Terry Scarbrough, lohn Fowler, and Lanny Nelson to thank tor making the Way clear, Also Myles Brandon, Bill I-Iamilton, lohnny Kennedy, and Bob McFarland all of whom we are proud ot. i010I0i0illiilitlillitllibilllillllltbl Q Whities Fried Chicken I I Fon eooo Foon i Best Fried Chicken in Austin i Phone 5-I433 6Il4 N.

HE AKER ROCKE The Eyer and Em of Baker VOL. IV ISSUE II BAKER IUNIOB HIGH SCHOOL NOV. l952 BHBEFHUSIEYS Student llnunnil Elactinns Did you see that girl? You didn't! I don't know how you could help but notice her. I guess she was half asleep this morning. Somebody should tell her that she has her dress on wrong side out. It would be very embarrassing to her if you did, though. She would feel like crawling in a hole and I don't blame her. I would love to see the bright red her face puts out when she does find out. See how everyone is look- ing at her? Poor girl. If I could only tell her how silly she looked. But I guess it's none of my business. Did you hear a silly conversation like this a month ago? No doubt you did. It really wasn't that bad though, for it was only initiation day for the eighth grade F.l-LA. girls and what an amusing day it was. lt seems that Mrs. Walden and Miss Patterson, our two pep-squad leaders, were thrilled to death when the cheerleaders gave them two flowers to wear to one of Baker's football games. Politics seem to be a popular sub- ject in Baker, these last months, with having cheerleaders election, student council, and all. lf you heard two little girls, by the name of Linda Willoughby and ludy Ty- son, sitting in a drugstore booth, arguing over lke and Adlai, you would know that a presidential elec- tion was held, too. lf ever you are walking through the hall, and you hear an S.O.S. call, you will know it is limmy Woody in Miss Acklin's second pe- riod class, dinging the bell on his typewriter. Many Ohs, ahs, sobs, and slang words could be heard around Baker all day, Wednesday, October 22nd, as the students received their report cards. Guess Who? By Peggy St. Martin Do you know a girl named Mutt who goes around with a boy named left? No, there're not those fictional characters from the comic books but one of the cutest couples in Baker. The reason for their nicknames is very obvious for left is number 61 on the football team and is quite tall. But cute little Mutt is only five feet tall and has blonde hair and twinkling blue eyes. Her favorite school colors are green and white. She was born in Waco on October 20, l939 which means she just turned thirteen last month. Mutt seems to thrive on hillbilly music, Mexican food, basketball and skat- ing. She is on the pep squad and is a member of the F.H.A. I-Ier fa- vorites include Amateur in Love, gym, Miss Thigpen and, of course, leff. The answer to last month's Guess Who was lack Secord. You will find this month's answer in next month's issue in the Guess Who column. By Carolyn Peterson The student body elected the offi- cers of the student council in the assemblies October IU, 1952, after the nominations and campaign speeches were given. lames Frey was elected President. He was nominated by Lester Kitchen. The other candidate was Liz Barron nominated by Suzanne Bowling. lay Arnette now takes over the Vice-president's office. I-lis competi- tor was Emily Flachmeier. lay was nominated by Greg Martin and Emily was nominated by Bobetta Clayton. Voted into the position of Secre- tary was Frances Fisk. The other candidates were Barbara Norwood, Martha Smith, lo Eickman, and Martha Ann Peaugh. Frances was nominated by Mary Ann Goeke, Barbara by Donna Peck, Martha by Sandy Wade and Martha Ann by Melba Allman. Two of the officers are in Mr. Posey's advisory. Two student council representa- tives were elected by each seventh, eighth, and ninth grade social studies class. B HER SLANG By Suzanne Bowling Have you ever been given e, esyay, yay tango, onay or nay tango as an answer to a question? Well, that person doesn't belong across the street, it's just Baker slang. I'll interpret for you. E, esyay and yay tango sim- ply mean yes. Onay and nay tango mean no. I traced the origin of some of these words and it seems that Mary McGuire originated e while lane Ottmann made up yay and nay tango. Esyay and onay are plain pig Latin. u
