(piqAkirL (PjuaJulMu The Pigskin Warriors of Casey High under the guidance of the coaches—Ott Bay, Jim Tedrick, and Bob Collom—had a successful season. The Warriors were defeated by Robinson, Dupo, and Marshall. They scalped Oblong, Martinsville, Palestine, Charleston, Paris, and Charleston T. C. They ended the season with six victories and three defeats. When the annual pigskin banquet rolled around, Ronnie Gross was awarded the Harris Trophy. The most valuable player award was presented to Gene Shiels. Gene Shiels made the first squad of the All-Star Team of the E. I. League. The team of “48” will miss the playing of Ronnie Gross, Gene Shiels, Leslie Montgomery, Dick Smith, Richard Coons, and Max Brandenburg. However, the remaining twelve lettermen will be a good foundation for the on-coming team.

OTT BAY BOB COLLOM JIM TEDRICK foach A, There are three men on the faculty at C.T.H.S. of whom everyone has a right to be proud. They are none other than the three Warrior Chieftains—athletic director, Myron Tedrick; head coach, Oscar Bay; and assistant coach, Robert Collom. Jim Tedrick is not new at Casey High. He came to C.T.H.S. in 1941 and became assistant coach. Three years later he went to the navy, and he came back to Casey last year. Ott Bay, a St. Louis man, was a varsity man in football and track at college. He spent two years of coaching at Robinson and two at Villa Grove before coming to Casey. Bob Collom, a native of Wichita, Kansas, spent his first year of coaching at C.T.H.S. last year, after obtaining his degree at the University of Illinois. Besides doing a swell job of guiding the Warriors the coaches also have other duties. Mr. Bay teaches English; Mr. Tedrick, history; and Mr. Collom has a biology class and the boys’ physical education classes. Twenty
