1981 Wildcat EDITOR Mark Palmer CO-EDITOR Renee Arivctt UMPIRE HIGH SCHOOL UMPIRE. ARKANSAS Volume II Dedication We, the annual staff, take great pleasure in dedicating this year s 1981 W ildcat to two fine men. Their devotion to coaching and concern for their teams have not gone unappreciated. Jack Thompson has been coaching for 25 years in various places in Georgia and Arkansas. His wife. Patti is coaching at Dierks. Besides coaching the Junior and Senior Boys at Umpire, Coach Thompson enjoys duck hunting. Grover Hill has been coaching for four years. He coached two years at Dierks and has coached two years at Umpire. He and his wife, Ramona, have a son, Dustin, who is one year old. Other interests of Coach Hill arc a partnership in a trucking business and growing chickens. We hope they enjoy being at Umpire as much as we enjoy having them here. 2 LEES TV Dierks, Arkansas AMERICAN FARM AGENCY REAL ESTATE Mena. Arkansas Administration BOARD OF EDUCATION James F. Manasco.
