Jane Adkins Proud
Of Valedictorian
Miss Nan Hassler
Beaming parents, wives and
sweethearts will be among the au

grees are conferred on the 920
graduating seniors of Texas A&M
College.
Somewhere in that audience will
be a pair of blonde ladies with
especial pride in their blue eyes.
They will be the wife and daugh
ter of the valedictorian of the
Class of ’51, Jane and Pamela Ad
kins.
Jane, a dimutive energetic and
very pretty girl, entered A&M with
her husband, in September 1948.
She was enthusiastic about his
coming back to school and through
three years of living in Aggie-
land is still enthusiastic.
For one yea,r the Adkins and
little Pam “endured the hardships
of the Annex—without complain
ing too much.” Then they moved
to 25-A Vet Village where they
still make their home.
High scholastic honors run in
the family. Jane was valedictorian .
of her high school graduating
class in Abilene.
The Adkins were married in 1945
while Jane was a senior in high
school and Bill was stationed at
Love Field in the Army. From
November until May when Jane
graduated the marriage was kept
a secret.
Their daughter, four years old,
thinks “Daddy is just the most
wonderful person in the world,”
and it doesn't take questions to
see that “Daddy” feels the same
way about his daughter.
Other than, being a full-time
housewife and mother, Jane has
been an enthusiastic worker in the
First Baptist'Church in Bryan. It
pleased her when Bill came back
to college and she is pleased that
they are staying around for a
while longer for Bill to work on
his masters.
