This was after a football game in his Senior year at Baylor Prep School in Chattanooga, TN back in 1956 . . .

He was a tough player . . .

My dads helmet wasn't that fancy

Same years

Chief's pop played ball, too. You dad looks like he might have a bit of Indian blood--the bulge is the givaway.

^

That is so wrong...WRONG!!!

What you checking the bulge for? ROTFLMAO!!

A secret Indian password--how we warriors identify each other

Really Neato !

He had a single bar helmet in H/S and College ... Not sure what's up with this helmet, but it was a military prep school ...

My Great, Great Grandfather was Cherokee, chief ... And stop talking about my Dad's package, for crying out loud . . .

Geez . . .

Dude looks really tall...and a little skinny. What position did he play?

LOL!

Offensive Guard . . .

He was 6'0" . . . I'm sure under 200lbs . . .

The guy was about 2/3 legs. Threw me off!

Dunno . . . They wore their pants high on the waist back then . . . At least in a lot of other photos as I've noticed . . .

very nice. I can see the resemblance.

A lot more Chattanooga and Atlanta folks on here than I'd originally thought. You still live in Chatt town jet?

I'm just West of Downtown Atlanta . . .

My g/f's parents are in Chattanooga, though . . . Beautiful City . . .

Good to hear. I'm in Athens now at UGA but I was raised up in Walker County GA and Chattanooga was the nearest civilization so I spend a good bit of time up there. It is a nice city indeed; it'd be nice to live and work there after graduating.

Great pic. BTW,that's my my 1st car in the background,1954 Chebby. X
