Description
Photograph article dated November 15, 1962 partially reads, "Pierce College football coach Ray Bishop did Valley College a big favor two years ago, and his name is Al Crawford. The likeable Monarch signal caller left Los Angeles High to start his college education in Woodland Hills, but the drive was just too much, and he decided that it would be Valley. Crawford, 19, has quarterbacked Valley College's team for two years, and has turned in a good job despite overwhelming odds." Photograph caption reads, "Al Crawford and his mother - Mrs. Ames Crawford avid football fan."
