Reflector: October 29, 1941

I thought I would share this with you fellas. I found this going through some things my grandfather saved in his lifetime. I have several copies of the reflector from 1941-1942.

That's awesome. It's hard to believe that my high school senior class was larger than the MSU class of 1942.

[Political Hack]

you mean the Mississippi State College class of 1942.

I love that it has the headline about Boo Ferris accepting the pro contract

[Schultzy]

Very cool.

And you're right about the Boo Ferris thing especially if you've ever heard him speak.

Wow that is really cool but eerie at the same time. Only 6 months after Pearl Harbor and 2 years before D-Day. Crazy to think about.

Thanks for sharing, BD.

Thanks for sharing this. Also, I had a friend that played for Boo Ferris at Delta State, and Boo has a set of stools, 4 I believe, that he had someone make that the legs are the bats the Red Sox used in the 1946 World Series.

I've messaged Rick Cleveland and asked him if he wants it for display at the MSHOF. He said he wants it but has to check Boo's display case and make sure there is room for it.
