Hello List, My Uncle, Jack Ferguson, also attended Eula High School in the early 1940s before joining the Navy during WW2. He didn't remember a semi-pro team but did some checking for me. The following is from William Brock: > I was talking to R. Lee Webb today and asked him about the Eula >Professional Basketball team. > > He thought about it awhile, and then said he believed he had heard >something about it. He said he believed that Littleton Philips was one of >them, and then he thought Hoss Stephenson was one. He said he was to young >for them. He later said that it seemed like Eck Farr might have played some >for them. > > Hope this helps you. > > Brock > This was a most interesting message. Please let me know if you find out anything else about the team. Best regards, Brit Ferguson (great grandson of William Britton "Will" Ferguson, the first postmaster of Eula) -----Original Message----- From: KAYNLINN@aol.com <KAYNLINN@aol.com> To: TXCALLAH-L@rootsweb.com <TXCALLAH-L@rootsweb.com> Date: Sunday, May 02, 1999 7:16 PM Subject: Callahan County Basketball Team >Hi Callahan County, TX list! > >My father graduated from Eula High School, Callahan Co., TX, in 1930.
