Patricia and me sporting letter jackets.  Patricia has on Victor's which was a big deal for dating couples then.  The girl wore the guy's jacket so all of the other guys would know they were going "steady".  Me, I'm wearing a jacket with "F" for Floresville which I got as playing on the winning Little League team that year.  I was eleven then.  The next year Poth had their first team when I was twelve.  Poth won the area Little League Chanpionship that year when I was twelve.  I got a jacket with a "P" for winning that year too.  The teams we played were from neighboring towns, Stockdale, La Vernia, Floresville, and Nixon.  I remember girls in Junior High thinking it was "hot stuff" to talk us in to letting them put it on.  I guess they wanted to be like the older girls.  I can remember all of us guys at that age being more interested in hunting, fishing, and all other things besides girls.

It also looks like this was the year I caught my sister in height. She would have been fourteen.
