Baylor Student Finds Gold and Earns Trip Home
Baylor University student Jack Bowler found $1,000 in twenty dollar bills in the Union Building. He delivered the money to Assistant Dean Dr. Walter H. Juniper, who arranged a ten day hold and split the funds if unclaimed. The bills were later traced to Norma Heubner, secretary at the Baylor Athletic office, and Bowler received a Baylor Wake Forest Dixie Bowl trip for his honesty. Bowler joked that he will have a severe crick in his neck from searching for another gold mine.
