Tribute to Mr. Mullen Life's race well run. Lifeis work well done. Life's victory won. Now cometh rest. Edward Hazen Parker What a fitting eulogy for the late Mr. Edward F. Mullen, head hockey and football coach at Hope for many yearsl He passed away un- expectedly in September after he returned home from coaching football. Mr. Mullen, a native of Lowell, taught phys- ical education in Ayer, Mass., before coming to Hope High School. He was assigned to Sackett St. School. Laurel Hill Ave., and Gilbert Stuart Jr. High as a physical education teacher from 1929-1942. At Hope he was a coach of football and hockey and until three years ago a baseball coach. He helped to found the schoolboy scholar- ships program inhockey. Mr. Mullenis Hope hockey team won the Rhode Island Interscholastic League championship in 1960 and 1961. In 1953 and 1959 they were runners-up in state tournaments. The passing of HEddie Mullen has been a great loss to the school, the community, and the state. He had been an in- tegral part of Hope High since 1942. He will be missed by the faculty, alumni. and students of this school. Mr. Mullen had done much to foster, implement, and perpetuate the best tradition of physical education instruction and coaching. His influence and understanding affected many young men of this school in the years that he was here. We remember Mr. Mullen. as an outstanding person who left an everlasting impression onthe school.
