I want to thank Tommy Ruffino (DHS '70) for posting a link to this article from the Cleveland (Texas) Advocate. (Click on the image below to view the article.)
Notice two things as you read the story. First, the man designated #6 in the photo is L. Hightower. I'm almost certain this is Coach Dugan Hightower's father, i.e., grandfather of Scotty Hightower Bass (DHS '66). The second thing is the reference to a famous series of games against the Sugar Land Blues in the fall of 1915. Since I have a date for The Houston Post article, I should be able to find more info on this epic 7-game battle.
I like the team's nickname, "The Hustlers." My favorite team name belongs to the Longview Cannibals. Click here for more about them.
