GHS Owls 1969

I found this photo of the '67-'68 Garland Owls slipped inside my '68 yearbook. I don't remember how I came to have it. It is not the same as the team photo in the yearbook (frankly I think this one is better). I have not seen this photo on any other GHS-related website or Facebook page.

I do vaguely recall the afternoon it was taken, and I also recall that it started raining while they were trying to take the picture. What looks like dandruff on the shoulders of the black jerseys was actually raindrops; in fact, if you look closely, you might see the rain slanting down from right to left.
