All of my six pages were hacked at the end of May, except my personal page. The pages were taken over by someone, removing me as administrator on all of them, and apparently wiping out four of them completely. My SM Football History page is still intact, and while I can post this message, I still have limited functionality.

My Cathedral School for Boys: 1946-1950 page is also still intact. But my Terrill School for Boys, Texas Country Day School, St. Luke's School of Austin, and Brooks Healthcare Solutions pages appear to have been totally overwritten. I've been fighting with FB since then and that is a very difficult, time-consuming, and exasperating thing to do. I've had zero luck with them so far, but I've just now been able to access this page, albeit on a limited basis.

I went so far as to file a formal legal complaint with FB via a law firm to require FB to return my pages to me and to return them fully intact. That just started last week, so I don't have any feedback on that just yet.

Terrill School played against Westminster College twice for sure, but perhaps four times, in the 1930s. The first game was in 1931 with Terrill School for Boys: 1906-1946 winning 39-0, a game played in Dallas. In 1939, Terrill traveled to Tehuacana to play the Wildcats and lost 18-0. In fact, Terrill scored all of nine points that entire 1939 season. It's possible that the schools played each other in 1936 and 1938, as the games were on the schedule, but I've been unable to find evidence that the games were actually played. Westminster closed for good in 1950. There is also information that Westminster was known as the Bulldogs, but Wildcats is the what appeared more often in the research.

The famous Peacock Military Academy building in Dallas is in danger of being torn down. Now known as the Urban Park Elementary School, the DISD is on a path of replacing it with a much larger school building. This is terrible news and hopefully someone can step forward to save it. At a minimum, if it can't be saved, the beautiful Peacock logo on top needs to be saved.

Terrill School and Peacock's Dallas branch, the "Cavalry" division, played each other twice, both in 1933, with the teams splitting the games, 7-6 for Terrill, and then 6-0 for the Mules in the last game of that season, played at SMU Stadium. The Peacock head coach was Bud Price, who had previously been an assistant at Terrill School.
