Elton Jones and Robert Mumpower t eolation It is with a deep sense of gratitude that we express our appreciation to Mr. Robert Mumpower and Reverend Elton Jones for the service which they rendered to our student body and the people of our community during the past three years. When an athletic director was not available,, these men volunteered to coach our football and basket- ball teams. Thus they enabled our boys to gain the valuable training that comes only from competitive sports, when the accent is placed upon the promotion of sportsmanship and the development of stamina. 7 ,
