Community Shows Support . . . Anticipation, excitement and curiosity over- came the town as the date neared for the Cardinal basketball team to open its home season in the new high school gymnasium. Most pleasing to the people of Coldwater was the increased seating capacity which made the gym one of the largest in lower Michigan. The playing floor itself was regu- lation size, 84 feet long and 50 feet wide. Although the classroom section of the build- ing was not finished in time, the contractors put the gym floor, walls and entrances into condition by January 20. Thus the class of 1956 could say they really were in the new building. Left to right - Rr Scheidler, R. Picard, T. Short, D, Steffey, B. Weaver Sharon Barnes, Pat Mooi.
