Winona Board Terminates Coach Dean Brown Contract
The Winona School Board terminated Winona High Football Coach Dean Brown's contract for the 1976 season after 29 hours of testimony and a 25 point resolution. Brown allegedly used unreasonable force pushing quarterback Larry Ekholm into gym lockers after an Oct. 8 argument. Ekholm was not found at fault. The decision, 5 to 1, keeps Brown's social studies teaching post intact and allows an appeal in district court. Brown may apply to coach in 1977, with board action pending.
