Few of the 15000 fans left the Fieldhouse until all the awards had been made and the plavers shouted “Hello Mom!” into the various microphones.

Fans heaped credit upon Chadd for the manner in which he directed the destinies of the Anderson agoregation during the season's campaign. Chadd came to Anderson in the fall of 1933. Next year his team succumbed to a great Technical (Indianapolis) club in regional competi- | tion. In 1635, Anderson defeated a previously unbeaten Jeffersonville team for the state championship. Last year Chadd again brought his team to the finals where the In- | gians fell before Frankfort, subsequent champions. The “Little Napoleon,”
