Every year the Junior Chamber of Com<br />
merce of <strong>Linton</strong> presents a trophy to a<br />
member of the basketball and football<br />
teams. This trophy is awarded on the<br />

lE:adership, and character.<br />
These awards were won this year by Bob<br />
Keller in football and Tom Dudley in<br />
basketball.<br />
Gold footballs and gold basketballs were<br />
also presented to the Senior lettermen in<br />
both football and basketball.<br />
ROY WILLIAMS has been our head football coach for the past five years. In that length<br />
of time his t eams have made an admirable record. In his second year here, in 1942, his team<br />
won the Wabash Valley championship; and again this year, after developing talent for<br />
the last two years, he brought his boys home in front in the Southern Indiana Athletic<br />
Conference race. Mr. Williams' years at <strong>Linton</strong> High have truly been worthy ones. Besides<br />
coaching the football team, he has helped develop <strong>Linton</strong>'s track until it is now one<br />
of the finest in the state, and he is very much interested in the betterment of our schoo!.<br />
He is well liked and admired by all students and ranks highest in the minds of his players.<br />

COACH GARLAND LADSON: Garland Ladson has been basketball coach at <strong>Linton</strong> High<br />
for five years. In those five years his teams have won five Wabash Valley preliminaries,<br />
foul' state sectionals, one Wabash Valley championship, one state regional. In addition<br />
to this his 1944-45 team won the first West Central Conference championship. These<br />
many victories constitute truly a remarkable record. Mr. Ladson is very popular with<br />
the student body who feels that he is probably the finest basketball coach in this part<br />
of the country.<br />
