For years, one of the projects that I wanted to undertake was to go to the UC Davis library and research the 1951, 1953 and 1954 Aggie football teams. I know that my dad played football for UC Davis in those years, but really don't know much esle.
In the last month, I stumbled on the fact that the California Aggie, the college newspaper, is now on-line. I have started to organize all of the articles that I can find that mention Dick Heringer. It turns out that he is mentioned in articles beyond the football team. Additionally, I have started to find a few articles that mention my mother, Joyce Abbott.
A work in progress index of this project is here.
