F riendliest . . . Friendly Vera Carter, Allan Rogers and Patricia Hugland, are our personalities for this month. 8th Grade DUM DU DUM DUM, Dragnet is her favorite program and these are the facts. She has brown hair, blue eyes, and weighs 102 poundsg she is 5'2 and is 13 years old. You can find her busy either collecting story book dolls or eat- ing Mexican food. No boy friend for this gal, but Mr. Pine and mathematics are her favorites. You have probably guessed by now that our first 8th grade favorite is friendly Vera Carter. 9'rl1 Grade Get out of the way! That's what the player's of the rival football teams will say when 210 pound Allan Rogers, right tackle for Baker, comes charging down the field. Allan, born in Beaumont, Texas, June '16, 1940, is our first ninth grade personality. To go with his blue eyes and brown hair and on Allan's 6 foot body, he chooses the color pink and black quite often. Mrs. Hart and social studies rate tops with Allan. When asked what he thought about Baker he said, I wouldn't be here if I didn't like it!! BE CAREFUL GIRLS Hey, girls, you'd better be careful with our Baker football boys.-No late dates, no carbonated water and junk during football season. We want our boys to be in tip top shape for our games this year. This is just a little warning to the girls. BE CAREFUL WITH OUR PRE- CIOUS-FOOTBALL BOYS. 7th Grade I love it , was the reply Patricia Hug- land gave when she was asked how she likes Baker Junior High. Patricia is 5'3i'f6, tall has grey green- ish eyes, and brown hair. 'Green and white, fried steak, and apri- cot cobbler rank top on her list. Hey, There , is her favorite song sung by her favorite singer, Eddie Fisher. in '- 'nE if VOGUE SHOE STORE 5 lf Shoes, Bags, and Hose if '1 1 lf 706 CONGRESS ll '1 1, 'V -,,,.,,,,,,,, f,', fQQvfQfgff, la if L.

H Diary of A Fibber SEPTEMBER I3, l834 One day Ah wuz ridin' Poakalong, my boss, at a nice little pace Cabout 55 miles an hourl and we wuz out in the Panhandle when Ah saw a 'hole tribe of Comanche's a comin' at me. Wal, me an' Poaikalong speeded up then and hid behind a big rock 'til them Injuns wuz plumb even with us. Then me an' Wild Bill 'fHickock that is, he wuz with mel let out a wild yell that sounded like a bobcat had jumped onto a buffalo and them thar Injuns turned around an' run so fast they made the dustbowl right-then-an'-thar. Wal, Ah reckon ya'1l have all COh, Ah fergot to date it, Oct. 31, 1837.1 heard how Pecos Bill dug the Rio Grande, but he didn't do it Ah is resp-os-ible fer that. Ah wuz ridin' on the stage one day goin' to Brownwood frum El Paso, when two owlhoots stopped the stage and they wuz a goin' to rob it. Wal one calls out, Everybody out . Ah wuz gentleman like and let them two other passengers git out first. Then Ah steps out. Them two owlhoots takes one long look at me an' way they dug the Rio Grande kicking up so much dust. Ah reckon them owlhoots got to Brownwood afore me but Ah caint say fer sure cause Ah never seen 'em again. Th' next time it rained it filled up the Rio Grande so Texas and Mexico had a nice little stream. Ah reckon the Rio Grande got a little bigger ever time it rained but Ah caint say fer sure since it's been a long time since Ah wuz down there. But, of course, now ya'll all agree that Ah caused the Rio Grande, not Pecos Bill.
