Coach and Cleorge Coarh-How’drd Lee Allen, ihe coach at M. IL A. for ihe past twelve years, is one of the most well-known ami well-liked persons at M. IL A. He graduated from here in 1929 and went to college; after four years he returned to the Academy as coach and athletic director. In 191-1, when Headmaster Jim Farrell went to the armed .services, Cloach stepped in to fill the position of headmaster pro Icmpore. W ith the arrival of Mr. .Sager, Coach was able once again to devote all of his many talents towards the thing which he most enjoys, that of coaching any kind of sports that you can name. Proof of his ability at the coaching game can be seen in the scrapbooks he keeps which have jKiper clippings of M. B. A.’s record dating from 192.5 until now. We sincerely hope that Coach Allen will remain with M. B. . . for many, many years to come.
