ana university.
Both coaches will meet within the
next week with Supt. Murray and
other school officials to work out the
details of their duties during the
coming school term. The two will
take up their work here with the
opening of the fall term.
BLUFFToN GRADUATE
Schmidt was a 1912 graduate of
Bluffton High school. After three
years in the Navy he starred in
football at Bowling Green university,
from which he was graduated with
major in physical education.
For the coming summer he is en-
rolled at the graduate school of
Bowling Green university, and will
also continue with park duties for
which he has been employed at
Genoa.
He will move here in the fall with
his wife and two children. Schmidt
is the son of Mrs. Anna Klapp OF
| Cherry street.
HARRIS A VETERAN
Harris also is a veteran of the
Navy, in which he served three
years. He has had three years of
teaching and coaching experience,
and since graduating from Indiana
university has been taking graduate
work there during the summer va
cation periods.
He is married and has two child
| ren.
Both coaches come to Bluffton with
highest recommendations from the
schools which they are leaving, il

Schmidt's contract as head foot
ball coach and instructor in health
and physical education will be $3.50
annually. Harris will be paid $3,100

addition will receive 5000 for his
coaching duties.

ufacturers after graduating from
high school here in the spring of
1902. Then in 1904 he returned to
Bluffton to organize his own plant
in an upstairs room in the down.
town area. This early location was
the back room of an old brick build
ing which stood on Main street on
the site now occupied by the City
Market.
Initial prducts of the concern were
pocket meters, the first of their type
which had been offered in this coun-
try. The instruments were housed
in cases about the size of watches,
and their design represented an en-
tirely new development in the field.
The principal types of meters
made in 1904 were for dry battery
testing, and shortly after the found
ing of the organization the meters
were destined to be widely used for
testing in the early automotive field.
FOUR EMPLOYEES
The initial force of employees con-
sisted of four persons, and Mr.. Trip
lett did all engineering design work,
handled the direction of production,
purchasing of materials, correspond
ence, was the office force, and in ad
dition served as the salesman.
One typewriter was available and
the company records were kept in
pen and ink. Bookkeeping was done
in long hand; invoices, bills of lad
ing, etc., also were written out.
In the field, as a salesman, Mr..
Triplett soon obtained wide accept
ance for his meters. g In 1905 the
concern moved into a small frame
plant building on College Avenue,
where Triplett Plant No. now is
located and as the business contin-
ued to expand, additions to the fac
tory structure were made, the last
in 1928 when floor space was prac-
tically doubled. In addition, for
many years until 1928, the machine
shop was located in the present
warehouse building on Cherry street.
Dupring the four years following
1923, the company enjoyed one of its
periods of most rapid growth, as the
use of instruments became more wide
ly accepted. At the same time there
proved to be a greater demand for
radio testers, a field in which Trip
lett was one of the pioneers and
made many exclusive contributions,
among them being the design of one
of the first direct reading radio tube
testers.
NEW PLANT IN 1885
In 1882 the Triplett organization
expanded to include the production
of precision measuring instruments,
and the rapid growth of business ne
cessitated the construction of a mod
ern new plant which now stands on
Harmon Road and is designated as
plant No. 1. This building was erect
ed in 1885 and the beautifully land

When the World War ii started,

continuous, requiring the sconstruc-
