Back to Doak and suspension helmets.......just flipped the page of my President's high dollar contributor desk calendar..........and there's "Doak Walker, 1947" in a suspension helmet (can't tell color as photo is black and white) being chased by a fellow in a leather helmet looking very much chagrined to be photographed in such shoddy equipment.
