College Station really enjoyed
the day. For awhile, several
of the Aggies were looking for
a lost baseball. Wonder what
could have happened to it?
Laurie Sawyer has made up
a new kind of noun. She calls
it a "romantic" noun.
The basketball team played
very good games against Cush-
ing and Brownsboro. Even
though we didn’t win the
last game, we were given a
beautiful trophy and are very
proud of our team,
students and teachers, may not i Got lots of compliments on

We Are Proud
Of Our Team
By LUCILLE CROUCH
The students of Fairfield
High School are very proud of
the basketball boys. We, as
we are indeed very proud. Our
boys have helped to give Fair-
field a good record, not only in
the games they have played but
by their dress and manner.
We have five boys on this
year’s team that we are espec-
ially proud to have. They have
played their last game for Fair-
field High. These five boys are
our Senior boys; Don Daniel,
who has served as their man-
ager, James Cherry, Danny
Robertson, Huey McLeod and
Johnny Cole. No team is com-
plete without a good coach. We
must congratulate Coach Madi-
son on the fine job he has
done in guiding and assisting
Senior boys were quite flat-
tered by the little song put up
in the English room by an
"anonymous” Freshman girl.
Nothing like being chased.
Everyone enjoyed the pep
rally Friday afternoon. It
brought back memories of foot-
ball season and really stirred
up school spirit again.
The Texas history class is
glad to have Mr. Whitaker back
after his long illness. He would
like to thank Rev. Peacock for
teaching the past six weeks.
Six weeks tests are here |
again and groans can be heard |
from all quarters as students
try to catch up on vocabulary
lists, "things I've done” list!
and correcting papers. It's an
unwritten rule that you always
wait until the very last minute
for these things.
Everyone enjoyed the pro-
gram given Monday afternoon
on science. We especially were
pleased to learn lion Daniel is
such a strong boy.
The FFA boys had freshman
initiation Monday night. No
wonder the hoys were hiding
all day so they would stay out
of trouble.
Saw the boys working out
for track this week. We really
should have a good team.

Board has been introduced by
Hep. David Read of Big Spring.
The appointive Board has
been under severe criticism for
several years, especially since
it suddenly increased insurance
rates on motorists, based on
traffic violations.
Bill is patterned after the law
requiring the election of the
Railroad Commissioners. It is
the sponsor’s belief that the
public would be given more
consideration if the insurance
posts were elective positions.

AUSTIN.—Both pro- and anti-
sales taxers declare they’re in
a better position now that Gov.
Price Daniel has dropped his
support of the payroll tax plan.
Pro-sale taxers say this will
leave the Legislature practically
no choice but to pass a general
sales tax. But opponents say it
dears the way to getting down
to “numerous other plans.”
In his message dropping the
payroll tax, the governor also
said that he felt neither a sales
