Notes
This Alan Winans image shows the Wyeast High School basketball team getting a pep talk from their coach, circa 1953. Can you provide any names for the boys or their coach?

Arlen, Since I did not go to HS in HR, I don’t know if they had class year books, but if they did and someone has the class year book of 1951-53, these guys most likely should show up in it.

When this photo was taken, I am sure the coach was aware of it.
Now days, a video recording can be taken of the coach and he isn’t even aware of it. Makes chewing out your players a little tougher.

I would have suggested going to http://www.wyeasthigh.com, but that site appears to no longer be active. I’ve saved the graduating class pictures on my computer. Unfortunately I couldn’t match those pictures with the pep talk photo.

The class yearbooks are available at the library.
