. Has Outstanding ll-3 Record In all sports there is a period of training before the time of glory. The junior varsity is no excep- tion to this rule. Because of their interest and hard work, Flora students will always have a var- sity team good enough to represent their alma mater. The junior varsity coach, Mr. jerry Redman, has led his team to an envious record of eleven wins to only three losses-winning very decisively over our closest rivals. This is concrete proof that our future varsity will have the strength and experience to overcome any and all obstacles it will encounter.
