I think the Campellton is probably Campbellton in Atascosa County. The school merged with Pleasanton in 1964.

Driscoll still operates a PK-8 district; they and the Santa Gertudis district jointly operate Kingsville Academy HS on a piece of dirt otherwise known as the King Ranch. Used to drive through there a lot when I had customers in Corpus and Kingsville.
What used to be Chapman Ranch is now the London ISD, which has operated as a PK-8 district until a couple years ago when they started a high school; they play crowded field football ... not sure when they will go full UIL as I think they're adding a year each year.

Also the UIL official lists says that in 1941 District 13 "withdrew from race"...in the official paperwork a line is drawn through the names of the schools in that district...the teams were Bullard, Chandler, Dixie, Winona
1941 was also the first year of UIL six-man playoffs with just one round, Bi-District Championship, being played
1941 was also the first year of UIL six-man playoffs with just one round, Bi-District Championship, being played
Districts 7 and 8 did play. I took that from an article in the Abilene paper. I tried to find the bi-district game for Trent and Divide, but it did not get reported. It was just an announcement they were going to play soon.

I knew that District 7 played for sure...the UIL paper work just said that they didn't report a winner to them...I have a Nolan County News article about District 7 forming.
I don't know why District 8 would report that they didn't play at all. District 8 would have included Bradshaw, Lawn, Ovalo, Trent, Tuscola, Wylie...the list has a circle around the district with a note reading "dist did not play"
It is also wierd that you have Dowell winning distirct 7 in 1942, the UIL official list has these teams in Distrct 7: Blackwell, Divide, McCaulley, Pyron, Sylvester. The Sweetwater Reporter article about District 7 forming "teams in district 7 Blackwell and Divide, Nolan county; Pyron, Scurry county; McCaulley and Sylvester, Fisher county. Dowell and Hobbs of Fisher county were in the league last season but suspended six-man football this year."
You typed Dowell as the winner in the list and then said Divide was the winner for 1942 in your last post??

There are no scores for Trent, Ovalo, Bradshaw, Lawn, Wylie or Tuscola in lonesatrfootball.net for 1942...
