Views the Athletic Front
It was in 1935 that R. P. (Bob)
Wilder came to Clinton high school
as a coach and teacher.
Footbal) at CHS in 1933 had suf
fered a disastrous season, but the
1934 team under Coach Arthur Mc-
impossible of his teams. He taught
the mthe correct way to do a thing
and asked and expected them to do
their best. He got loyalty and re
sults.
, Two years of basketball under try
ing coditions proved remarkably ^suc-
cessful considering the limited time
for practice and the small squad.

that sport also, in. spite of the im-
expected loss of several regular play
ers. ''
All this and more can be ascribed
_ , . Au jj * • * u _ to Coach Wilder. Two years under
coachin* and pleaa^t associa-
tion with him ever since he came
to Clinton have made us realize his
pionship. Coach Wilder stepped fn;
and took things in stride. His'teams
played smart, consistent bkll and be
gan to attract larger crowds. The
type of football he taught was not
only successful, it was colorful. The
people of Clinton became more in
worth. This is why we say that the
school and the town are indebted
to him.
