I remember one day at lunch, I was sitting at a table next to a table with a couple of boys in my class. Mr Hanna walked by and they said hi scratch. Mr. Hanna promptly took a hold of their ear lobes and marched them up to Mr. Jargstorf's office. Seems rather funny now thinking back on it because the boys seemed shocked at what he did.

Thomas Wood (1966)

You forget...He was our golf coach.  We called him "HAP" as well.  That was his nickname to the golf team. He coached me from '62 thru '66.  We won both the sectional and regional before losing State in 1964, 65 66.  Biology was his profession, but golf was his passion.
