Ok.
Well you tell me, who baptized them, if not Paul? I'm not sure what point youre trying to prove... But just let the text speak for itself. Then you tell me who baptized them.
1While Apollos was at Corinth, Paul took the road through the interior and arrived at Ephesus. There he found some disciples
2and asked them, "Did you receive the Holy Spirit when you believed?"
They answered, "No, we have not even heard that there is a Holy Spirit."
3So Paul asked, "Then what baptism did you receive?" "John's baptism," they replied.
4Paul said, "John's baptism was a baptism of repentance. He told the people to believe in the one coming after him, that is, in Jesus."
5On hearing this, they were baptized into the name of the Lord Jesus
.
6When Paul placed his hands on them, the Holy Spirit came on them, and they spoke in tongues[c] and prophesied.
The only people mentioned in the text are Paul and the former disciples of John. So who baptized them, if not Paul?

How would the Philippian jailer (
Acts 16) have gotten baptized if he didn't hear it from Paul?
