Arnold's appointment to guide the destinies of Tiger athletic teams for the ensuing school year climaxed a two weeks' period of negotiations between local school heads and coaches who might have been available for the local position. One of these was Or ville (Red) Bailey, present Marsh- field high mentor, but he was eliminated as a possibility when hit school board refused to re- leas him from his present con tract. Hedrick pointed out that many boards were reluctant to release coaches at this time. Record Strong The new coach comes here with a brilliant record, not alone as a coach but as an athlete him self.

Prior to going to Yankton col lege Arnold coached basketball, football and track at Wessington bprtngs, (S. D.) high school from 1832 to 1937. his grid teams there enjoying a string of 23 games without defeat.
