  • THE HISTORY of SMU FOOTBALL 1910S on the Morning of Sept
    OUTLOOK PLAYERS COACHES OPPONENTS REVIEW RECORDS HISTORY MEDIA THE HISTORY OF SMU FOOTBALL 1910s On the morning of Sept. 14, 1915, coach Ray Morrison held his first practice, thus marking the birth of the SMU football program. Morrison came to the school in June of 1915 when he became the coach of the University’s football, basketball, baseball and track teams, as well as an instructor of mathematics. A former All-Southern quarterback at Vanderbilt, Morrison immediately installed the passing game at SMU. A local sportswriter nicknamed the team “the Parsons” because the squad was composed primarily of theology students. SMU was a member of the Texas Intercollegiate Athletic Association, which ruled that neither graduate nor transfer students were eligible to play. Therefore, the first SMU team consisted entirely of freshmen. The Mustangs played their first game Oct. 10, 1915, dropping a 43-0 decision to TCU in Fort Worth. SMU bounced back in its next game, its first at home, to defeat Hendrix College, 13-2. Morrison came to be known as “the father of the forward pass” because of his use of the passing game on first and second downs instead of as a last resort. • During the 1915 season, the Mustangs posted a record of 2-5 and scored just three touchdowns while giving up 131 Ownby Stadium was built in 1926 points. SMU recorded the first shutout in school history with a 7-0 victory over Dallas University that year. • SMU finished the 1916 season 0-8-2 and suffered its worst 1920s 1930s loss ever, a 146-3 drubbing by Rice.

    Paw Print Press Proudly Serving Itasca “The Big Little Town” since 1997 Itasca, Texas 76055 Vol. 2009 Issue #23 June 5, 2009 Community Hosts IISD Employee Appreciation Dinner Itasca ISD employees and their spouses received a thank you and a pat on the back in the form of an appreciation dinner provided by the businesses and citizens of Itasca last Friday night at the Curry Building in downtown Itasca. Approximately ninety people enjoyed the delicious barbeque dinner provided by a citizens group spearheaded by the dinner’s chief cook, Vernon Markwardt (pictured right). Numerous individuals helped Markwardt at every step of the undertaking from collecting the funds to cooking and serving the meal. Markwardt began the project in early April with an open letter to the community printed in the Paw Print Press and circulated to downtown business. In the letter he said, “The community of Itasca is fortunate to have an excellent school system! The system has excelled at a time when many schools have failed. This is in large part due to the dedicated teachers and staff of this district. They have worked hard and continue to work hard, providing the best education they can for their students. The Itasca ISD has been recognized by Texas Education Agency as well as several national publications. These accomplishments were achieved by the dedication and hard work of the entire staff of Itasca ISD.” The district employees were most appreciative of the dinner and the community support that it represented. “We love working with our students at Itasca ISD and we know that the community and parents appreciate what we do,” one high school teacher said, “but the dinner and sentiment meant a lot to us especially after such a demanding year.
