Thanks, Brit Ferguson >My father contacted a friend and we got the following answer: > >My name is C. Lee Smith. My Grandfather F. L. Smith operated the Eula Store >from 1911 to 1947. My father G. M. "Till" Smith graduated from Eula High >School, Callahan County, in 1928 and along with several other friends from >Eula High School played basketball around the area. Their trophies were >displayed for many years in my grandfathers store. According to my father >some of those players were: >Shorty Nance, Hubert Farmer, Duke Mackintosh, Vance Stephenson, Hilton >Edwards, and my father Till Smith. The Coach of this band of Eagles was Rush >Harrison. My father has the idea that perhaps Shorty Nance could be your >father since he can account for the other team members. If you can confirm >this I would appreciate it. I hope that this answere your query. C. Lee >Smith, Clyde, Tx > >It turned out that Shorty Nance was the writer's father. > > - Jo Ann Kendrick Robinson (PS) Sorry I forgot ... the name of the team was the Eagle Cove Eagles.
