Nov 26th, 1939, Birmingham News: "Ace Howard Flankman"

While "Ace Howard Flankman" would make a great name for a pulp novel character, in this context it refers to one of Howard College's, now Samford, top players.  

This is the other side of the page on which the spotlighted player from last night, Eugene Pierce, appeared in promotion of the final game between Birmingham-Southern and Howard College at Legion Field on November 30th, 1939. End Ed Richardson was expected to have a significant impact in the game's result.
