Wayne Nelson, Supt. Nebo School District, 350 So. Main, Spanish Fork, Utah; Dr. George Puckett, Principal Prin-cipal Springville High School. Vice Principal Michael Jacobsen; Mr. Klliolt N. Jordan. Head SI IS Basketball Coach-Springville Coach-Springville High School; Mrs. Jordan and family. Regarding: Statement in support of head SHS Basketball Coach Elliott N. Jordan. Over this past weekend, many of us were contacted con-tacted by telephone by some of the parents of current SHS team members, who : have organized themselves apparently to question the continuance of Mr. Elliott N. Jordan as Head Coach of SHS Basketball Team. In talking with each other, we find that our unanimous reaction was one of disapproval of any such action against Coach Jordan, and we refused to attend the public meeting organized for this purpose at The Springville Middle School last Sunday evening. We felt that this action would suffice in the matter and that it was unnecessary to cause Coach Jordan and his family any further public embarassment by further pursuance. However, it was unsettling of us who were contacted, received a rather one-sided version of details against Coach Jordan. Upon inquirey we learned from school officials of-ficials that this matter has gotten quite out of-i hand and has taken on a very serious nature, we felt it necessary to issue this joint statement in full support of Coach Elliott N. Jordan; We further feel any such matters should be handled by proper, qualified school officials and not arents This statement is' issued and. signed byifformer players and parents of players of the Springville High School Basketball team. While we cannot speak for the opposition, we can speak for ourselves our-selves from our own personal experiences and associations with Coach Jordan both during and since ', our high school years. We would like to state that we stand united in unanimous support of Coach Jordan. We felt it both an honor and a privilege to have represented our high school and . our community com-munity under the direction of Coach ' Jordan. Jor-dan. Each of us is proud to , have served under , the fine coaching ability of Coach Jordan. It is natural in the heat of competition and lips and downs that are an integral part of sports that sometimes tempers will flar and that differences dif-ferences of : opinion in coaching occur; Also personal problems and differences arise. This was the case with our team. '. and had time permitted and we could contact other past teams, it would also be the case with them. However, when these problems arose we looke d to Coach Jordan for leadership to solve these problems and he never failed us. He did not hesitate, but rather proved to be a dedicated leader in giving us direction and unity as a team.. For this, we shall always admire and respect him. Long after the glory of athletic victory and the sting of defeat has faded away, as we continue on with the pursuits of life, the character building values that were instilled in each of us by Coach Jordan are all that remain. ; They . were molded into us through personal dedication and hard work on Coach Jordan's part. They will remain with us forever as our tools for live and its challenges and pursuits. For this we shall always be indebted and grateful to a fine-dedicated-able coach (and also to his wife Jolene . and their children without whose support he could not function). We wish to thank them for making our years in high school sports such a personal, integral part of their lives and for their dedication in our behalf. Many of the attributes instilled in us and shown by personal example of the way Coach Jordan lives his life are: Coach Jordan is respected among his fellow coaches and other schools throughout the state. He has provided Springville with a well coached basketball team who have earned a berth in the State Tournament for the past 13 years. This is an accomplishment anyone would be proud to be a part of, particularly when considering the fact that Springville does not number among the 'largest student body population. Every team member was taught by example and required to maintain a high standard of morality. Coach Jordan insisted upon absolute discipline (no matter the cost and personal problems it may have caused). Discipline is an important ingredient of any teamwork and of life. For honoring this principle, we respect him. Another very important standard was maintaining main-taining the health code contained in the Word of Wisdom. This attribute and good health habits, both mental and physical, are invaluable. Honesty, good sportsmanship sport-smanship and fair play among our fellow players and competitors was a musth with Coach Jordan. Jor-dan. Coach and Mrs. Jordan's Jor-dan's interest did not stop with the end of practice. We were invited to the hospitality of their home and family. Nor did it end with our graduation dates. They have continued con-tinued their friendship and' concern, in the development of our lives. 8 This has been evidenced by their attendance or personal acknowledgement acknow-ledgement at each of our mission farewells, weddings, and other fetes of accomplishments in the lives of "his boys." We deeply regret the actions of so few could have caused such serious problems in the life and career of a dedicated man as Coach Elliott Jordan. We . sincerely hope this will have some influence for good and will serve the purpose of informing "the Coach" how we (and certainly many others had time permitted) as past players and parents really feel regarding his ability and dedication, both as a coach and as a man. We respect him., ' Sincerely, Players and . : Parents of Teams: l!(74. I!)75. 11)76 In , the limited timeframe we have been working, we were able to communicate with eight players and their parents.

Nobody went around with white gloves testing the tops of. my door frames and nobody inspected the top of the refrigerator for that grease-loaded dust that accumulates there, and everybody said the refreshments were "delicious," for which they can thank Mom McFadden. I can write a dozen stories, attend city council meeting, run hither and yon all over town snapping pictures week after week, and stand in the back room for six hours every Wednesday pasting up the newspaper, but I just can't face putting together four pies. I got my front porch swept off, the winter's accumulation ac-cumulation on my front door washed off, and all the old deer skulls and bones gathered up off the driveway and front lawn. , ' My mother, bless her heart, took pity on me and spent nearly an entire day dusting. As I've said before, I'm a collector, and there's lots to dust. If I'm lucky, my 'stuff sees a dust cloth once a year. My windows get washed when they need it ... which is almost never . . . and my floors get a quick once over when the dust balls begin to roll underfoot. I can work without shiney windows, without squeeky clean floors, and without my bed made. But I just can't work with the kitchen cupboards cluttered, newspapers and magazines scattered everywhere, and dirty laundry laying around. Somebody told me once that if the clutter is picked up, nothing else much matters and people think your house is clean. .t My Camera Club friends saw only three rooms. I think they thought my house was clean. too will principal well-received and that their grievances have, been satisfactorily aired and properly recorded. The matter has now been placed in the hands of Principal Puckett and we unanimously support his recommendation.
