The iobs which occupied The managers' Time varied, and They included disTribuTing sporTs equip- menT and uniforms, checking bus schedules, keep- ing individual records, and performing oTher odd iobs ThroughouT The season. The Teams and coaches were dependenT upon The eTTiciency oT The man- agers, and They were seldom disappoinTed. Even Though The specTaTors never realized iT, The managers worked iusT as hard as The Teams Them- selves. They shared Their Teams' ouTlooks boTh be- fore and aTTer The game.
