Everett Case (1900-1966) was the North Carolina State University basketball coach from 1946 to 1964. Case led the Wolfpack to win nine straight conference titles in his first nine years, six straight Southern Conference titles, and four Atlantic Coast Conference titles.
Leif Valand (1915-1985) was a prominent Raleigh architect from the late 1940s to the 1970s. He was born in Norway and immigrated to New York as a boy. Valand attended the Pratt Institute in New York City and then practiced architecture in Scarsdale, New York, prior to moving to Raleigh in the late 1940s to work on the Cameron Village Shopping Center. In his heyday, Valand was the most prolific architect in Raleigh. Some of his other works include the Cameron Village Office Buildings and Apartments, Enloe High School, the Federal Building on New Bern Ave, North Ridge Country Club, North Hills Shopping Center, the Velvet Cloak Hotel, the Central Raleigh YMCA, the State Administration Building, St. Michael's Episcopal Church, the Raleigh Women's Club, and many private residences.
