7.21.23 "Who Am I"

[UNTLifer]

I continue this little project now:

  * To help pass the time between now and fall practice 

  * To continue to teach our fans/new fans about our past

  * To push the smuT topics off the front page.

 

Clue#1: A four year letter winner in football and three time conference champion as an offensive back.

It's like this Silver.  I was nine years old when he played and I'll be 92 before this season starts.  I vaguely remember the name as a track star.

Disclosure: the hint is googleable. Penn Relays were a really big deal back in the day. North Texas State shows up a few times in its records.

Ran track ‘38 - ‘41. I assume the same for football where he played as an offensive back.

I was just trying to figure out how he was a four-year letter winner. In the 60's you couldn't play varsity sports until you were a soph.
