    Prunepicker is probably trying to figure out where Grant was....He was a little distracted while in Highschool I believe.....O.K. we all remember the Rifle Range (except '78) how about the two years that Grant had a winning football team and all of them could speak english fluently....Tracy Norwood was the coach and they had players that were touted all over the state... Mike O'Shea, John Suggs, Ernie Freshour....USG60 probably knew these guys as it was '59 and '60 twe had major winning teams and '61 had the likes of Ronnie Rose and the rest of that gang....'62 the legacy disappeared except in Basketball and Coach Brown held your feet to the fire and the paddle to your rear..Huh Guys////????

    Do any of you remember Ms. Carter? Mr. Coffelt, Mr. Nees, Mrs Nestlerodes, Wallace Smith????? come on now did back and start asking questions......How about Connie Hahn....(Sheesh) man she was good looking...and then of course Janice Treichler.....Saw her not long ago and I Love my wife but I still think I have a crush on Janice....Never mind.....

    I never remember a winning season at Grant, but it was so much fun to attend the games back then. You would attend a social gathering with all your friends and family and a football game would break out. Remember where 4 corners was? Remember where the Ropers and the Dopers hung out?

    Also how about TORONADO foosball joint?

    I was married and had kids when all that was going on. But, my young friend, Grant DID have many winning seasons.....they were terrors on the Basketball court. and the late 50's through early '60's they were good.

    I remember Coach Virgil Miliron and the wrestling teams. I also remember the
    swats. He was my gym instructor, too. Leave a towel in the dressing room
    and get a swat. Walk on the basketball court with street shoes and get a
    swat. Complain about getting swats and get a swat. I think there was some
    education doled out here and there.

    Mrs. Nestlerodes rings a bell, but she wasn't my teacher. C.D. Chase on
    the other hand... extricate the quadrapod from the vehicle... my head still
    hurts. Mrs. Baker was the attendance secretary, is that what it's called?

    My science teacher was Mr. (Ron?) Cable. He spent a lot of time telling me
    to get a haircut. He was a great guy. Coach Wooden was my history
    teacher. I came in late everyday and got a swat. It came to the point
    that I'd walk in and grab the ankles. He'd have his board and book in his
    hands until I made it to class. Did I mention C. D. Chase? Mrs. Kelly was
    algebra. A kind lady. Then there was Printing class. About a month into
    the class the teacher advised me and my friend to take study hall.

Coach said catch dat truck, so I took it up to 85! He's over the saying left off of it. I guess coach Savage has past away by now. He sure was a nice fella.

    Semrad never thought it was funny if anyone was running anywhere. I often
    thought of him as someone who would patrol the halls with a 12ga shotgun.
    Not that he ever did. I'll bet it crossed his mind every time he caught me
    without a hall pass.
