40 YEARS AGO: NOT FLAGGED — A violation for delay of game Friday night drew no flag....instead an official escorted (better still carried) the offender off the field. It was one of the dogs that frequent the CHS campus. The whistle-toater (instrument in mouth) carried the friendly pooch off the field, necessitating a delay in the contest that was not chargeable as a violation to either team.

As educators, we don’t measure success by the money we make or even by the degrees we collect, though many of us achieve a lot academically. For me, after 19 years of teaching and several college degrees, what fills me with the most pride is the impact I’ve had on my students.
