IRTLEY J. MILES - MATH AND ASSISTANT PRINCIPAL Nothing like this has ever happened to me before, apologized humbly and unpretentious Coach Kirtley Miles when told that he had been names as Proudly we hail teacher, This country boy who rode a black horse to a small school building each morning kept repeating that his life had been nothing extraordinary as our previous teachers' biographies had revealed.
When asked if he could give a different slant to his life story, he pondered a moment and said, "Yes, Mine was a very ordinary life. The others all did something great in their lives."
Mr. Miles was born into a large family of four older brothers and one sister. He graduated from the old Minden High School building in 1921, where he played center and tackle on the football team. The team went to state, but was defeated 7.0 by Warren Easton in the playoff. "The nearest I got to the All-state team was honorable was mention," revealed the
humorous coach who married high school sweetheart. "She was a good friend of my sister," remebered Mr. Miles. (Maybe thats' the way to catch them, girls! If them have a sister.)
Upon the completion of his degree at Louisiana College, he was offered a head coach position at Cotton Valley where he taught for five years. After fourteen years as principal at
Heflin, he returned to his Alma Mater to teach mathematics. I have a degree in English but I never go around to using it. They needed a math teacher and I've been at it ever since" explaineds this joke telling professor of mathematics in Room 14.
This teacher, often compared with the highly admirable Knight in Canterbury Tales, thinks that athletes ought to do as much or more than other students and not be excused because they participate in sports.
When asked what principle he used in his math classes to teach his students, he answered, "I try to make the students as individualistic as possible. I try to see that each student understands the problems before going on."
A father of two athletic sons, he says that he feels he could better understand girls' problems had he and Mrs. Miles had a girl. He was quick to explain that he was, however quite proud of his boys, Larry and Jack.
And we, the staff, students, and faculty, are proud to hail you, Mr. Kirtley J. Miles, for the
life which you thought dull but which we find very dear and challenging to us every day. It
typically exemplifies all the traits of a character suitable for our Proudly We Hail.
