Although she has them, her nickname is Baba , I even know her favorites: pink and grey, ham- burgers, Hancock, Rosemary Clooney, and the rest I'll tell you about later. The reason I'm writing you is to see if you could help in making her ambition a true one rather than just a dream. She'd like to be an airline hostess. This is a good profession as her hobby is boys and her favorite song is Pledging My Love. Here is a list to help you know her better through things she likes. 1. Bop Records 2. Texas 3. Flight 6 4. Three Coins in a Fountain -the movie 5. I Love Lucy -TV program 6. A visit to Rome 7. Debbie Reynolds 8. Tab Hunter 9.

Page 4 BAKER ROCKET First Impressions Are Important Have you ever noticed two dogs get- ting acquainted. It's either a snarl or a fight or a friendly whine and they're off romping and playing together as if they had known each other all their lives. All animals are the same in getting acquainted. Their first impression is the deciding factor. Even the timid rabbit will sometimes attack another that he doesn't like. Man is not unlike an animal in the fact that he has an instinct deep inside of him that tells him whether he likes a person or not. Even though neatness and personal appearance have a lot to do with a first impression, there is one other item of great importance. That is your attitude and the way you accept a new acquaintance. The next time you are introduced to someone new your attitude may win or lose friendship! Reserve Your Space Who said that our halls are crowded? Don't let them fool you, kids! That's an understatement! Everyone in school should know that by now. If you don't, wake up to the facts. It's more or less like Grand Central Station on a national holiday than school. However, there are a few things we con do to help the situation. Remember that the halls are crowed and everyone has to get to class in one piece. Take it easyg you have plenty ofltime to get where you're going without knocking everyone down. If a poor soul puts his foot outside the classroom door, it is Can You Pay? FRIENDSHIPS ARE EXPENSIVE Did you speak to that girl back there? You didn't? Why didn't you? The way to have friends is to be a friend. A friendship can do more for most people than the finest and richest gifts in the world. A friendship holds dear the warmth of love and security, for with- out a friend there is a lost feeling of being unwanted. - As a friend one must be willing to give and share, accept the differences between himself and friends, and offer the love and help his friend needs. Rambler said, There can be no friend- ship without confidence and no con- fidence without integrity. If we have no friends it is our fault, no one else's.. H Friendship is an education. It draws the friend out of himself and all that is selfish and ignoble in him and leads him to life's higher levels of altrui.sm and sacrifce. Many a man has been saved from a life of frivolity and empti- ness to a career of noble service by find- ing at a critical hour the right kind of friend. -Unknown Writer The Baker Rocket Staff Co Editor-in-chief ,.,,,t, Dee Dee Williams and Mary Sue Schwartz News Editor .....,.......,,......... Peggy Moore Customs, Stories And Symbols Accompany Easter Many Easter customs are quaint and full of meaning. Just as the earth is dressed in a new cloak of greenery, peo- ple too are expected to wear bright new clothes. Wonderful customs and stories complete the enchantment of the season. Older than Christianity is the Greek story of the earth's awakening-the myth of Demeter and Persephone. Eggs were considered pious gifts because they were emblems of the resurrection. Long ago a noblewoman dyed the first Easter eggs. Children finding them in the woods, believed they were left by a rabbit they had seen run by. Another symbol of Easter is the cross present to remind us of the day's reli- gious meaning. The white lilies decorate every church altar as a symbol of purity and light. In many of our churches Easter is pre- ceded by a season of prayers and fasting called Lent which is observed in memory of the forty days Christ spent in the desert.
