We Dedieate. It was late at night. The football team was ,just returning from its hnal game, victorious lor the sixth straight time - happy and exhausted. The players were anxious to go home after the long busride at the end ol the season, but before the bus stopped, the big man sitting in the front seat stood up and quietly asked the seniors to remain. After all the underclass- men had filed out and the bus almost empty, that big man ex- pressed his thanks to the silent boys who had played their last high school game. And then Coach Dick Lagergren said: HIFI can ever help you. . . The editors of the 1967 Brainonian dedicate this book to the big man who has helped so many boys throughout his years in athletics. As head football coach. assistant track coach, co-director ol the intramural basketball program and Lettermen advisor. in addition to his teaching responsibilities, Dick Lagergren has long played a signihcant role in establish- ing the worth ofa younger generation. The players slowly left the bus on that cold November eye- ning. feeling a certain complex pride - pride in themselves, pride in their team. pride in the school and pride in their coach - Dick Lagergren. 1. , My zff' 5 STANDARB fa 59 f P , 529' 4 a...,.
