Will Have Charge Three
Major Sports To Arrive
" About September 1.
Medford senior high school's
new head football, basketball
'and track coach is 34-year-old
Lorn S. Arnold, director of ath
letics and head mentor for the
past two yean at Yankton col
rlege. Yankton, South Dakota.
Arnold yesterday telephoned
.City School Superintendent . H
. Hedrick hit acceptance of the sal
ary terms offered for a one-year
contract, and is expected to ar-

u on child, on or before Sep-
- tjmbw 1.
The South Dakotan will suc-
ceed J. Russell Acheson, who re
cently entered citizens' pilot

'Lieutenant Bill Bowerman was
' called to t rtive duty last winter,
a nc although his track team cap
tu ed the state championship last
spring he entered cltuens pilot
training without ever having
handled the Black Tornado foot
ball squad.
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. His Yankton college bas
ketball team last year captured
the South Dakota college confer
ence championship with 18 vic
tories and three defeats; then en
tered the national Intercollegiate
tournament at Kansas City
where It lost in the first round
to High Point. N. C. college, 44
to 37 In an overtime contest. Ar
nold's 1843 track team also won
the conference title, and his
1941 football eleven placed sec
ond.
During the 1940-41 season, un
der Arnold's mentoring. Yankton
college's football and track teams
copped the conference champion
ships, and his cagers wound up
in third place. Thus, in two years
at Yankton, he turned out two
track championships, one basket
ball and one football title team.
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. From 1937
to 1940 he was director of physi
cal education and football coach
at Yankton high school, and in
two of those three years his
elevens won state champion-
amps.
Arnold is a 1927 graduate of
Mitchell, (S. D.) high school, at
tended South Dakota State col
lege for a year and a half and
was graduated from Dakota VVes
leyan university at Mitchell in
1932. He received his master s
degree in physical education in
1939, from the University of
Iowa.
. While attending Dakota Wes
leyan he was all-conference full
back, a member of the all-confer
enc basketball team and high
point man in the conference

track teams his last year in
school. In 1940 Arnold was pres
Ident of the South Dakota Health
and Physical Education associa
tlon. and In 1941 was president
of the Yankton Kiwanis club.
