Left rear is City Manager Malcolm Yancey. Rainey Cawthon is in the wheelbarrow being pushed by "Red" Coleman. Chief of Police John Montgomery is at the right front. This was the result from a wager between Cawthon and Coleman (of Coleman Faulk Construction Company) in which the loser was to give the winner a ride down Monroe Street if the paving around Doak Campbell Stadium was not completed for the opening game of the season. Red lost by 2 days and used a decrepit wheelbarrow with a wheel that was flat on one side. Chief Montgomery is giving Cawthon a traffic ticket for using a non-registered vehicle.
