If someone wants it, send me a PM with an email address and I'll send it to you ... as long as you post it back here. Open it in your photo program and then "save as" and select jpeg format. Then you can upload it like a picture.

Re: Old Photographs This one is an interesting one I found...only information is it's from 1938 and was archived at National Archives Records Administration in 1947 by the Bureau of Indian Affairs. Standing Rock Agency, captioned "Six-Man Football Squad from Camp 166" (I found this image on the internet).
At one point I remember seeing a 1940s Navy team photo for a six-man football team...can't remember much about that one or find it any more...but I believe I've read that the navy used six-man football as an activity in WWII

Re: Old Photographs PopeBurford wrote: 2 of em better be zebras or I'm throwing a flag... Two things came to mind. 1.Camp 166 is a camp trying to teach them to count. 2.That's what the defense sees when they've been drinking too much firewater.

Re: Old Photographs I welcome anyone who knows where camp 166 was located and what tribe(s) it facilitated...to please fill me in! I've been trying to find out for sure with no luck.

Re: Old Photographs Posting this for Lifegate:
If I remember right, this was from a book that covered the first 10 years or so of Wimberley 11 man football in the mid 90's.

Re: Old Photographs There is an article associated with the pic of Wimberly but I'm having a little problem with file size. If I can get it edited and still be able to read it, I'll post it also.

Re: Old Photographs Awesome stuff! During World War II women teachers in small town schools were called in to coach as males were fighting for our country...several schools stopped playing football for several seasons...I know Blackwell did pretty much...

Re: Old Photographs I remember perusing this book at Hastings shortly after it came out. Had a picture of Jonathon Parsons of Strawn (03 State Defense MVP) scoring a TD in his Soph or Jr year. It cost too much/I didn't have the $ for a coffee table/picture book (40+ of em). Bought it today used through Amazon, "Good Condition", 97% positive dealer rating of 400,000 ratings. We will see. $2.89 + 3.99 shipping.
