On pages 6 and 7 you will find your information. BAKER BUSTERS By Yvonne Platt This article was extremely hard to get any dirt for simply because all the teachers at Baker are clean and they don't leave any dirt lying around. But with my little shovel I managed to dig up some pretty good information. First of all, one smart little character popped off when a teacher told her class to get out of their notebooks so they could have a test. He remarked that he was too large to get in it in the first place. - Another funny incident occurred when she told her class to buy at least a five cent notebook. The next day she asked her students if they all had their five cent notebooks. Everyone held up his hand except one boy. The teacher asked him where his five cent notebook was, and he told her that he had a ten cent notebook. Student Council Elected By Delbert Moberg The student council elected their representatievs on Septem- ber 29. Two representatives and two alternates were chosen from each social studies class. As the paper went to press the names had not been tallied because of the change of the social studies classes. The student council will elect their own officers. The stu- dent council put on the first sev- enth grade dance, which was well attended. ll. , Vice Principal's Report Mr. Cowan reports that Baker has many new students this year, and that he has enjoyed meeting them. Of course, our school en- rollment has decreased by about 246 students, but we are off to a good start. Mr. Cowan is also well pleased with the student body and thinks we will accomplish much this year. Let's try to keep it this Way, throughout the year. By Carol Wyckoff Ever since September 8, school activities have gotten into full swing. Football games have be- come popular along with drama, music, student council, F.H.A., and pep squad. Homework has now become cr daily routine and tests are be- coming a little more difficult to pass than they were at first. Also staying in has kept most of us from at least one other activity. Many more school activities will develop as the year goes on so look in the paper for the new activities and try to take part in them. BIH Elects Cheerleaders By Carol Wyckoff Been going to the games? No- ticed our cheerleaders? Most peo- ple would answer yes to both of those questions. Now that we have started our football games and that old ri- valry is here, let's get to know our Baker Cheerleaders. The six cheerleaders and five alternates were elected by the student body in September. Although there were supposed to be only five cheerleaders chosen, two girls tied. It was de- cided that both girls become cheerleaders rather than call an- other election. This year's cheer- leaders are Nancy Dement, Bar- bara Grice, Yvonne Platt, Nancy Hamm, Martha Smith and Carol Wyckoff. The alternates are Patricia Foreman, Sandy Hitchcock, Ianice Kuhn, Patsy Parr, and Dee Dee Williams. l..et's all get in that old school spirit and go to theigames and pep rallies and support our team. This year we'll yell our lungs out and yell louder than any other junior high in Austin. Be a loyal Bakeritelll
