I JUST GOT ONE STRIKEI! Those were the words of Kelth
Reese as there seemed to be some question as to the
number of strikes he had during a game last week. It
seems the umpire thought for a moment that the young
player had three strikes, but a quick check wlthReese
showed that only one was a strike and the others were
balls. Guess who won the argument? (Press Photo by Will

Vada Waldron honored here
Miss Vada Waldron, former missionary to Argentina, was
honored by friends at several occasions during her visit
her Sunday and Monday.
Sunday Miss Waldron, who was a guest in the home of Mrs.
F. L. Goldsion, was introduced at the services of the First
Baptist Church.
A mid-morning coffee was held on Monday for Miss Waldron
in the home of Mrs. F. O. Hodge. Attending in addition to
the special guest and the hostess were Mines. Barbara
Brandon, Beulah Carlile, Jessie Cook, Jennifer Scoggin, Em-
ma Shannon, Barbara Helms, Tom Tucker, Pauline Heath,
Allene Leathers, Sam Lowe and Rev. James Brandon.
The Baptist Women entertained Miss Waldron at a covered
dish luncheon in her honor Monday noon.
For 32 years Miss Waldron was a missionary for the
Baptist Church in Mendoza, Argentina, which is located in
the foothills of the Andes Mountains. Her primary respon-
sibility in the town of 200,000 was as director of the Baptist
Goodwill Center. The Center offered classes for adults, young
people and children. Miss Waldron specialized in working
with pre-school children.
In addition, Miss Waldrondid missionary and general church
work throughout Argentina. All of her work was carried on
in the Spanish language which she learned after arriving in
Argentina.
Every five or six years during her tenure as missionary,
Miss Waldron would receive a year long furlough. She
spent that time in the States resting, visiting family and
friends, attending World Missionary Conferences, travelling
and speaking about her experiences. It was during her fur-
lough in 1970 that Miss Waldron decided to retire.
Miss Waldron was born in Munday, Texas, and moved to
Donley County when she was one year old. She started to
school in Hedley and then attended Clarendon HlghSchool and
Clarendon Junior College. Miss Waldron received her Bach-
elor of Arts degree from what was then West Texas State
Teachers College at Canyon.
ARer teaching elsewhere for four years, Miss Waldron
returned to Clarendon where she taught first grade in the pub-
lic school. When she had taught for eight years, she de-
cided to become a missionary.
Before going to Argentina Miss Waldron received her
Master of Religious Education degree from Southwestern
Baptist Theological Seminary in Ft. Worth. During her
years as a missionary, she considered First Baptist Church
in Clarendon as her home church.
According to Miss Waldron the highlight of
Argentina was leading people to know Jesus as
sonal Saviour. She values deeply the frindships she
and the people she left in Argentina.
Since her retirement Miss Waldron has been living
pa and is a member of the First Baptist Church.
