Chuzzy Jenkins had these clippings in his scrapbook. The pre-game article covers the Bi-District Championship Game Sugar Land played against Alvin at the end of the 1938 football season.
You'll see that Chuzzy was an integral part of the team, as was Herb Shelton. You'll also note that the team was undefeated and unscored on over the whole season. In fact, no team got within their 30-yard line.
I have post-game accounts of several games played that season, but not one for this game. The Gators lost, so maybe Chuzzy and his teammates weren't really interested in keeping mementos of the game. Regardless, they were the first Sugar Land High team to win a district title.
