Much of the early recollections of Lubbock and the first freight and express depots are lost because of radio interference. As a whole, the interview lacks continuity. But there is some value in it through chance observations by Mr. Bayless on his role in Lubbock’s school board, changes as more settlers came in, and various early community pastimes.
