Description

The Masonic Home High School football team is trying for their fourth straight district 7-AA Championship. Leading the boys is Coach H. N. "Rusty" Russell. He has a strong team, and has watched the little rascals from the 1940 season grow into a husky, talented bunch. Coach Russell is leaning in a chair at his desk. He is dressed in double breasted, three-piece pinstripe suit over a light colored shirt, a woven pattern tie, and wearing a signet ring and wire-rim eyeglasses. His socks are dark and striped and he is wearing dark Oxford leather shoes. There is a lamp, a Bakelite telephone, clock, and a stack of books on his desk. He is holding a pencil, there are bookends supporting several bound volumes and loose pages and there is a trash can behind his desk. The office where the coach sits has two windows, one of them opaque. A number of metal file cabinets with various sized drawers are behind him, and there is a pencil sharpener attached to the windowsill.
