    HISTORY & RECORDS BISONS HISTORY & RECORDS BUFFALO BISONS RETIRED NUMBERS OLLIE CARNEGIE #6 Carnegie was the most popular player and greatest off ensive performer in the history of professional baseball in Buff alo. He played 12 years with the Bisons (1931-1941, 1945) and is Buff alo’s all-time leader with 258 home runs (2nd in International League behind only Mike Hessman) and 1,044 RBI. Carnegie led the Bisons in home runs and RBI seven times (1932-1935, 1937-1939) and the IL twice (1938, 1939). His 45 home runs in 1938 remain a club record. A lifetime .308 hitter, Carnegie also owns the Bisons records for games (1,273), hits (1,362) and doubles (249) even though he didn’t join the team until he was 32 years old. Carnegie was in the inaugural class for both the International League (1947) and Buff alo Baseball Hall of Fame. LUKE EASTER #25 Luscious Easter was a slugging fi rst baseman whose long home runs and colorful style of play captured the hearts of Bisons fans from 1956 through 1959. Easter, who was the fi rst black player to play for Buff alo since 1888, hit over 35 homers and drove more than 100 runs for three consecutive seasons in Buff alo. He led the International League in home runs at RBI in both 1956 (35 homers, 106 RBI) and 1957 (40 home runs, 128 RBI). All told, Easter hit 114 home runs and drove in 353 runs with the Bisons. Of his many memorable games, Easter will always be remembered as the fi rst player ever to hit a home run over the scoreboard at Off ermann Stadium.

    RENEGADE RACONTEUR. Published by the Students ef 'Ba.kepsfield ]unio1' Collese ISABELLE HANAWALT, Edito7' ORVAL ]AMES, Busineu ManaAer- CJ3AKERSFIELD CALIFORNIA VOLUME II .• It is the purpose of the staff in these pages to in­ terpret the true meaning of "Renegade." To accomplish this end we have compared the qualities of the campus "Renegade" with those of John Charles Fremont, pioneer "Renegade" of California and Kern Coun­ ty. We find that the spirit and qualities of this great chara~ter are closely anal­ ogous to those exemplified in our Junior College "Renegade." The various divisions of the book depict this theme. Th~ picturesque figure in the division represents the "Raconteur" or story­ teller, who is relating to the college "Renegades," grouped about the fire, the spirit and qualities of the man whom they exemplify. But let the story-teller, through the following pages, visualize for us the "Renegade" of the past and present.

The course of John Charles Fremont is a pat­ tern, and his success and encouragement are an in­ spiration to every noble m i n d, which, despising sloth and ease, folly and pleasure, aspires to an hon­ orable usefulness to be achieved b y meritorious exertions.

    -- - - ~.o. l~.fN WE, THE ASSOCIATED STUDENTS of BAKERSFIELD COLLEGE, BAKERSFIELD, CALIFORNIA, proudly present the record of our treasure hunt for education Co-Editors Wanda Weeks, Norma Polston Co-Business Managers Ray Solari, Jack Lollar Art Editor Bob Folger Cover Willard Melton Advisor Duane Spilsbury Photographer Jack Rowe 0 1S53 llaconteur Honors Frost Just as a search for gold and silver is an adventure, our college life is also, for here we are seeking a treasure which cannot be taken from us, a treasure which far outmeasures any material possessions-on education. We find clues to this treasure in many different places: the classroom, the social affairs, the clubs, and the athletic contests. When we have combined all that we have learned from these clues, the treasure will be ours. Like any other adventure, our success is greatly dependent upon the leadership we have. It is because this leadership is so important that we wish to honor one of our great leaders who has been instrumental in helping us to seek our treasure. Since 1934 his leadership on the football field and in the class at Bakersfield College has made Jack Frost loved and respected by all students. He has led the Renegades to many inspiring victories, and has encouraged them after losses. He has built a feeling of sportsmanship and teamwork in the boys who have played football under his leadership. Now after nineteen years of coaching the Renegades, Jack has retired. He will be greatly missed on the field, but students will still have the opportunity to know Jack in his P .E.
