TUSCARAWAS - James L. Rogers, 67, Tuscarawas High School's "duration" athletic coach, announced today that he will turn his coaching position back to Charmis Davis, the school's former mentor, at the close of the present school term in accordance with an agreement with school officials when Davis enlisted in the armed forces. Davis, the oldest coach in point of service in the County Class B League was discharged from the service last fall and returned to the faculty at Tuscarawas.
During his 3 years as Head Coach in Davis' absence, Coach Rogers produced highly successful teams. In 3 season, his 6-man grid teams lost only one game. He organized the school's first 11-man grid team last fall and the club won 2 of 4 games. Rogers' basketball team the past season won 25 of 29 games, losing all 4 tilts to Strasburg's Tigers and the preceding year won 25 of 31 games.
Mr. Rogers will handle the Broncos' track team which is scheduled to participate in the county B meet next month.

NOTE: Having the ability to look into the future at this point, I can say that Davis will hand back the basketball team coaching job to Jim Rogers for the 1947 season.
