COACH .IEFFERY Libbey was very fortunate this year in having Al Jeffery to take over the iobs of head football and basketball coach. Jeff, who has long been connected with Libbey athletics, worked very hard to develop our football team, and was very successful until mid- season iniuries somewhat thwarted his fine efforts. When the basketball season started, Jeff was found clown in the gym almost every night working and drilling the teams. His eFForts were well rewarded as the varsity team was led through a successful season and on into the district finals. Then as spring came on, Mr. Jeffery coached the baseball team for the first time in several years. He was always encouraging and helping the boys to greater heights as the team went through its schedule. We wish to thank Mr. Jeffery for his hard work and untiring interest in our athletics. Managers Karchner Qulnlivan McDermott Kuiawa, Saccucci, and Honeck check equipment.

DR. WILLIAMS More than ever during the past year have we ap- preciated the friendship of Dr. Charles H. Williams, the brother of our principal. Continuously loyal to Libbey and all of its traditions, Dr. Williams has with his customary generosity provided the beautiful trophy awards so much coveted by athletes and also the very fine cups that are presented each year to the outstanding senior girl and senior boy. Dr. Williams resumed again this year his presentation of the Door Prize Show, which provided delight and entertainment as well as worth-while gifts. But more than for his gifts do we respect and venerate our patron, Dr. Williams. To Libbey he is the epitome of graciousness and cul- ture. His interest in and affection for our school merits our constant gratitude and in the thoughts of all of us he is, in truth, a perfect gentleman.

' 1 . CHARLES R. MARTIN Director of Athletics ADMINISTRATION The backbone of a sports program is its administration department and because this division is so important it is necessary to have capable leaders. Charles R. Martin, director of athletics, has finished another efficient year super- vising the many activities that come under the iurisdiction of the sports department. As in years before, Mr. Martin produced the football programs which were a great credit to the school. These programs were in addition to the splendid schedule of sports for 1945-46 arranged by him. Aiding Mr. Martin this year were two assistants, Orville Henrion and Herbert Ramsdell. Among their many duties has come the task of keeping books and supervising the equipment. Although this trio has made no eltort to claim rewards for their achievements, everyone at Libbey recog- nizes their value and thoroughly appreciates their work. 5 I .,,, . . , ,, 5 .
