- -------- - ---------- - OUR COACH For two years Russell Peters has coached the T. H. S. athletic teams and in that short time he has won the respect and admiration of students, athletes and fans alike. To the athletes whom he has trained, he has been not only an instructor but a pal and can no doubt attribute much of his success to his ability to make 'friends with all. In the face of every obstacle he has developed a team this year from a limited stock of inexperienced material that won a beautiful loving' cup and a shield. The record of honors that his teams have won we cannot here relate but it is enough to say that he has shared with his players the joys of victory and the sorrows of defeat. We feel that the success of the basket ball teams of 1922 and 1924 was due not only to the players but also to the sterling character and expert coaching abil- ity of our coach and friend, Russell Peters. To the Basket Ball Fans We, the Athletic Association, wish to express our hearty appre- ciation to those -of the community who have so loyally supported us in all our athletics of the past. We feel that much of our success has been due to your timely encouragement and unfailing willingness to aid us in all our enterprises. We hope to continue to deserve your loyalty in the future.
