Could these players really pick their team?


Buddy says something about Whit wanting to play for Terhune, the boys at the barber shop seem worried Chitwood will leave, did that really happen in 1950s Indiana at public schools no less?

If you lived on the boundary line between two townships, yes, you could, at least back then. I'm married to a former Indiana farmboy who had his choice of public schools.
