Nadine: This is Nadine Stuth and today is March 24, 1995, and I'm interviewing,
let's see, these people, and if you'll give me your names I'll put you on the list,
their with the Historical Fiction Committee at the Conference Center, College
Station, Texas. This is part of the memory lane oral project at 1300 George
Bush Dr. Let me get everyone to give their name and speak clear so they can
hear.
Frank: My name is Frank Cutter and I've lived in this area twice. Quite a number
of years ago. We went away out of state and we liked it so much that we sold
our house in Tennessee and came back and bought a different house. We live,
well it looks like Holeman.
Knox: I'm Knox Walker. I was born and lived in College Park. I was born in
1937 on campus. When I was six days old, we moved to campus. Needless to
say I've learned alot about College Park, because that's where so many of the
kids were on campus and they wondered about life. Well I've got alot of things to
say about College Park, and we'll get to that.
Dealia: I'm Dealia Fleming. I came here in June 1936. I taught school at
Consolidated Junior High. I've seen many changes. Many of the streets of
College Park and on campus was gravel.
Bill: I'm F.W. Bill Hensel. I grew up on the campus. My Dad was a landscape
architect. Most of my life was spent of campus. I'm familiar with that. However
when they moved everyone off of campus, we built a house on Lee. It is a
winding road.
Dorothy: My name is Dorothy Duke and I am a newcomer to College Station.
We bought an old house on Old Jersey in the College Park edition. I am here to
learn something about the history and help preserve the history. This house was
built by Robert K. and Ruth Fletcher. They signed an agreement on November
16, 1931 to have the house built. The people that lived there the longest were
James and Carol Baitey. Everyone we mentioned this to says, "We knew Mrs.
Baitey," or "We took piano lessons from Mrs. Baitey." We tore down the garage
and are doing some other changes. We want to retain the charm of the old
house but have the conveniences of the 1990's. We're very interested in
preserving the history of the community.
Dealia: I lived on the corner of Old Jersey and Fairview.
Nadine: Did you go the lake that used to be in front of my house?
Knox: Many times. I remember when I was seven years old. I grew up in a
sense of contradiction when I look at campus and College Park. We thought we
had everything because some kids came to school with nothing to eat.
Nadine: You went to this school, right?
Knox: Consolidated, as I understand was built on campus in 1922 on Lubbock
Street. I was a stucco building. they took in all children around the county. The
high school kids went to an old A &M Building called Fives Hall, even Bill Hensel.
The grade school kids went to the stucco building. \ kc(
Nadine: So people who lived in College Park worked on campus?
Knox: Mostly, some were professors, support people, on whatever else.
Nadine: Is that why you moved here?
Dealia: Yes, my husband was in mechanical engineering. I'd like to add
something to Mr. Walker's idea about the lunches. When I came here as a
bride, of course the thing was to go to the grocery store at Luther's in Northgate.
Myself and some of the other ladies made hot lunches and brought them to the
school for the kids who needed food. Mr. Walker's house was where Rudder is.
Knox: Yes, right by the Rudder Auditorium.
Nadine: Dr. McGoo used to live in our house and he was telling me that he used
to like to play in the lake by my house.
Knox: Yes.
Frank: They was a Billy Goat Bridge there.
Nadine: It is still there.
Frank: Oh, it is?
Nadine: Yes.
Frank: I was thinking about the change in the name of streets. There are people
who come here and think that that street is called Welch, it's actually pronounced
Welsh. Where Winding Road makes its turn to Welbourn Rd. was called County
Rd.
Dealia: Yes.
Frank: It was all cattle pasture as far down as C. C. Creations.
Knox: There was a man named Paul McEntire. He left College Station in 1939
and went to work for Harvard. Then he worked for the Rockefellier foundation
and became a world authority on the evolution of corn. He was one of the most
prestigious men from College Station and nobody would have known it at the
time. He went to Harvard, but then noone cared.
Nadine: What about that gazebo?
Dealia: It was on campus on George Bush and Houston St. It was there for
years.
Nadine: What did people do there?
Dealia: Business families would go there.
Frank: Did they ever have concerts there?
Dealia: I don't know.
Nadine: Was campus real distinct then like now it has a Jersey /Bush divider?
Bill: Going back in to the 1920's, the land was owned by the Czechs and the
Bohemians. While they've disappeared, some of their descents remain. The
Kana's own the land now from George Bush to Hwy. 6. The Czech and
Bohemian influence for wanting and having land was certainly in effect and they
also have a bunch of families who own land on the other side of new Hwy. 6.
Nadine: The was the original Hwy. 6.
Knox: Yes, to get to Houston you got on that road.
Bill: Alot of people don't know it, but there also was a golf course down here in
the early 30's. It was a nine hole course with sand and green. My dad would get
off work at 5:00. He would take me down there. It lasted five or six years.
Nadine: I've never heard of that one.
Knox: On Sunday afternoons this man from WW1 came with airplanes and they
even brought Ford Trimotors. When I was three years old my father paid $.75
and I'd fly on a Ford Trimotor. The Ford Trimotors were the first airplanes to
carry people on a commercial basis. That was the first year they would land them
and take people up for rides.
Bill: We flew over Bryan in a Ford Trimotor atleast five or ten minutes.
Knox: Everything vibrated.
Bill: It sure did, but it was cheap.
Nadine: Your father trusted you to go up at three years old?
Knox: My father flew in W.W.I. Both of us went up in the Ford Trimotor.
Nadine: It was the big entertainment then.
Knox: It must have been.
Bill: They also flew along Welbourn Rd. I remember that.
Nadine: Your house was built in 1936? (To Dealia)
Dealia: The first one was the little gray one. The one where I live now was built
in 1941. There weren't very many houses in that area, mainly it was grass up to
here. (she pointed to her waist).
Bill: I was really interested in this. Let me know if I can help again.
Nadine: I'm sure that they'll call you again.
Bill left.
Dealia: There was a house in Beverly Estates that we all thought was such a
monstrosity.
Frank: Probably because it was.
Nadine: Where is Beverly Estates?
Dealia: On Rosemary. Originally on that land was a white farm house.
Frank: Yes.
Dealia: It was the only one too. On Fairview there is a house with a cedar tree.
The people got a divorce. They divided the house, the husband lived on one
side, the wife on the other.
Nadine: He built a garage and library. He lived in the library. I noticed that her
house was sold but I still see him walking the dog.
Dealia: About the school, I'd like to tell about that. Down on the corner of
Fairview and Park Place where they play baseball used to be where Lincoln
school and church was. There was a two room building and I could go out in my
yard and look down the street and see the teacher with a handbell ringing it. The
children would come running up cheering.
Nadine: We got a copy of the deed description for that area for a house. The
only thing it had in it was that the house had to have indoor pluming and face the
original way. That was in the twenties.
Dealia: I met some colored people by the name of Davis who said they thought
there was gold under the ground. I would like to find some of it.
Knox: Speaking of under ground, the only way to hook up in those days, the
1920's, was to hook up to septic tanks that fed into sewer systems that went
south, on each side of the road. They met onto a creek with rocks. There wasn't
any chlorination. What did get purified ran into the Brazos River. That was the
state of the art sewage treatment in College Park in 1921.
Nadine: What about water? Did they get it from a well?
Knox: College Park at that time was hooked up to salt wells on campus full of
hydrogen sulfide. If relatives came to town they'd bring there own water.
Hydrogen sulfide smells like rotten eggs.
Dealia: I remember my first bath. I turned the water on and it smelled and I
thought to myself that I wasn't that dirty and I just turned the water off.
Nadine: When did they change over to something different?
Knox: W.W.I.
Dealia: From Montclaire to Welbourn Rd. was all cow pasture.
Frank: On the corner was a pharmacy.
Nadine: What was the name of the pharmacy?
Dealia: Maiden Pharmacy.
Nadine: What about the bookstore?
Dealia: Yes, it was there and there was a pawn shop.
Knox: And a dentist.
Dealia: Oh yeah, and the first City Hall was upstairs.
Nadine: Upstairs from the bookstore?
Dealia: Yes, it was over Rother's.
Nadine: Did all the citizens vote?
Dealia: They just met. We were there for two or three hours. The man that was
head of the math department became the first mayor.
Nadine: How long has the Presbyterian church that's over there been there?
Knox: After W.W.I. I used to teach Sunday school.
Nadine: What about the Episcopal church?
Knox: Around the late thirties.
Dealia: There's a Christian church on Welbourn.
Knox: There was alot of concern about spiritualism. A union Sunday school that
was supposed to have been independent of the Episcopalians, Catholics,
Baptists, was organized. It was a separate group with its own identity. In the
1920's they got permission to establish it in the basement of Hall.
That union Sunday school seemed to dominate the Sunday school aspect of
Christianity. Professor's kids and kids all around were sent to that Sunday
school. During that time, the college condemned the hall and said it wasn't fit for
meetings. It lasted until the thirties.
Dealia: It was beautiful inside the Hall.
Knox: Not that basement.
Dealia: Oh no.
Nadine: When people were building their houses out there did they have their
own architect or was it a planned community?
Frank: You bought your plans from somebody.
Nadine: In 1936, there weren't very many houses.
Dealia: No, that's why my husband built one, because we would have had to live
in apartments.
Knox: A man named Luke Patrenela opened his heart more than anyone I've
ever seen for the community. He certainly should be remembered for always
giving.
Nadine: He owned a grocery store?
Knox: Yes, he gave speeches too. During Easter time he hid eggs for the kids
to find. He was really there for the community.
Frank: Yes, the entire community.
Knox: My mother used to call the grocery store and say she wanted two fryer
chickens and whatever else was on her list and they'd deliver the groceries.
Dealia: That's right.
Dorothy: Did they keep a running tab?
Knox: They charged it to them. There was also a grocery store on campus in
the thirties, and a filling station, and a dry cleaners on campus. Mr. Shaw owned
a hamburger stand on campus.
Nadine: I heard he used to dress up.
Knox: He sold large bags of roasted peanuts and you'd walk by there and smell
those peanuts.
Nadine: You spoke earlier about Easter egg hunts. Were they are other
activities that went on?
Knox: Yes, in 1933 Consolidated had a carnival. The first one was a big
success. They played bingo at it which was a money making event. But a
preacher raised alot of hell about it. It ran for two years in a row.
Dealia: They changed it to lotto.
Nadine: Oh really?
Dealia: Wasn't the first project house in Russell Hall on campus?
Knox: I don't know.
Nadine: Was it for students?
Dealia: Yes, after the depression. They moved it later. There were also
servants quarters on campus that people lived in and they worked for the people.
Frank: After the depression, you worked wherever you could.
Nadine: What do you know about the house? The back of it is facing George
Bush and the street address is Old Jersey. It's right down next to Beaver Creek.
The Inglis's live there now.
Dealia: Yes as far as I reckon.
Knox: All those houses faced Old Jersey.
Dealia: Old Jersey. The back of it is to George Bush. Kind of pie shaped.
Nadine: Dr. Inglis said that he and his wife lived there about 30 years, and the
house was about 30 years old when they bought it. It's a beautiful house. It
looks sort of like Mount Vernon.
Dealia: Dr. Boonburg died. Back in those days I was probably twenty something
and it seemed like he was older, but he was not an old man, probably in his
fifties when he died and she continued to live there and then William, they had
one son. Then Mrs. Boonburg died and William went off to New York or
somewhere.
Nadine: These were all still professors. Mr. Patrenala lived over there. He was
a business man. Any other business men lived in that area?
Dealia: Most of them were college professors or connected to A &M some way.
Nadine: No reason to live there otherwise.
Dealia: No
Nadine: No industry even in that area. C. C. Creations.
Knox: It didn't boom until after the turn of the century. Nothing became of it.
Dorothy: There was oil. We had mineral rights but never drilled.
Knox: I was looking at abstracts and all that was leased out a long time ago.
Nothing happened in those days.
Dealia: About ten or twelve years ago, maybe fifteen, did you lease to an oil
company in town? Did they contact you?
Frank: No maybe we lived in Tennessee at that time.
Dealia: I bet you were. They gave us about three - hundred and fifty dollars
which wasn't bad. It was while you were in Tennessee.
Frank: We got a letter from somebody up in the panhandle with some land that
come through Elizabeth's family and they made us this magnificent offer of fifty
dollars per acre, and we didn't reply to it. About a month or six weeks later, they
called and said, "You haven't sent back your contract," and we said, "No, it was
too cheap," because in the meantime other people we knew were getting one -
hundred and fifty. Next thing we knew they sent us another form and a check for
six hundred bucks.
Nadine: In Bryan they all get alot.
Knox: We've got two lots over there and got about a thousand dollar a lot just to
sign. Checks came in for a long time. It was a good deal.
Nadine: So they never drilled over in College Station.
Frank: Never did.
Knox: Never drilled.
Frank: Never drilled.
Dealia: We'd also get notices like for ten dollars an acre and we wouldn't worry
about ten dollars an acre.
Frank: Who built the house that we live in there on Holleman?
Dealia: Billy Hensel's in -laws the Eaton's. Now I think they built it. That's the
one I can first remember.
Frank: Didn't at one time it become a preacher's residence. That's what we
were told.
Dealia: The Eaton's were Mr. Hensel's in -laws.
Dorothy: Those housed don't turn over that often. We're only the third owner's
in our house.
Dealia: Houses on Sulfuk, Lee, and Persian, those houses don't even have to
put out a sign, by word of mouth.
Nadine: Were there Tots of children in the neighborhood. You're the one talking
about how lots of your friends lived here.
Knox: In College Park there were alot of kids. Many kids rode the school bus.
Dealia: I think about how everything has reversed when a hear the school bus
outside of my house on Old Jersey. Children used to walk down the street to
school and now they have to ride the bus because the schools are so far out.
Knox: The buses in the 30's and 40's were for kids out west, nobody in town
rode them. You walked or rode a bike, but you didn't ride a bus.
Nadine: And you taught in the school district right here where we are now?
Dealia: Yes, in this building and the one across the street. I taught two years at
Lamar then the high school. We were in the old wooden buildings then cause I
taught Mr. Walker. He was a senior and Mr. Langcaster.
Frank: They tore down the building where Elizabeth taught. She said it was the
most conveniently arranged school that she had ever taught in.
Nadine: Which one was that?
Frank: Around the corner where the new building, not the junior high, not the big
building.
Dealia: Oakwood? Or the last one?
Nadine: There was one with a cafeteria there.
Dealia: We had community suppers with hundreds of people. They had so
much fun. It was just wonderful. Everybody was so close and cooperative. That
was our big money making thing for the year. We made money for the school
because we didn't have much money.
Nadine: Was it a pot -luck supper?
Dealia: I forgot now. We contributed cakes.
Knox: I thought people brought dishes.
Dealia: Well I guess the meat was catered. And then we had the party. We
ordered the costumes from Dallas. It was called the Country School.
Knox: Did you have it at the assembly hall?
Dealia: No, in the old gym. It was fun.
Nadine: Did they do plays every year?
Dealia: The community supper was every year in October. After it wasn't to hot.
We did have air conditioning and the perspiration was just rolling down my back.
Knox: Were you there when the great poisoning occurred?
Dealia: No I wasn't teaching at that time, but I saw the buses pass. Wasn't it
salmon?
Knox: I don't think anyone bothered to find out.
Nadine: A food poisoning?
Knox: This was in the spring of '44. All these kids ate at the cafeteria and by
1:30 or 2:00 they were all running to the bathroom, to the hall, or outside. They
lost control of their bowls and vomited.
Dealia: Oh, it was awful.
Knox: The lawn was just coated with kids and teachers.
Nadine: Oh my goodness.
Knox: I don't know what they should have done, but they should have had an
M.D. out there. There were so many bodies.
Dealia: Some of them had to go to the hospital. I think it was salmon.
Knox: I've never seen something like that in my life. So many people poisoned.
I don't think that they ever knew what it was.
Dealia: The cafeteria was in the old gym. The one that they tore down a few
years ago.
Knox: The local kids that lived in the community also ate at that cafeteria and
they were sick, the teachers were sick.
Nadine: Did they sent you home?
Knox: I remember that somebody tried to get a hold of my parents so someone
could come get me.
Nadine: How old were you then?
Knox: I was sixteen. I also got cramps in my stomach like swimmers are
supposed to get. I never got those before.
Frank: Or sense?
Knox: Right.
Dealia: Well I had an experience similar to that except I think it was a
Thanksgiving Dinner. The night we played Deer Park. Even though I was a
junior high teacher, I volunteered to go to Deer Park, my daughter was in high
school in the band. So I went on the band bus and coming back we stopped in
Hemstead and everybody on that bus was sick. This was after we'd had the
game and lost. Thank goodness it didn't hit me until we got back. That was an
experience to. It was from the turkey we ate at the cafeteria.
Nadine: So your daughter was in the band? (To Dealia)
Frank: Who was band director at that time?
Dealia: Colonel Dunne. The school was so small that Anne started playing in
the band in fifth grade. Of course they couldn't go to contests with the high
school band. They could perform.
Knox: He'd been doing that for years.
Dealia: Yes, six years.
Nadine: Did they have a good band then?
Dealia: Yes.
Nadine: Well let's see what else this says. We've covered where you ate lunch.
Frank: Or where not to eat lunch.
Nadine: We talked about Southside businesses. Your families weren't involved
in any of those?
Frank: No.
Dealia: No.
Nadine: Pruitt's has been there a long time.
Frank: Yes, quite a while.
Dealia: It was long and narrow. You almost had to turn sideways.
Nadine: The cleaners has been there a while.
Dealia: Uh hum.
Nadine: Now they're the only original ones.
Frank: Yeah but the building that's there used to be mainly pharmacy, I think.
Dealia: There was Southside grocery, h's Pharmacy, a barber shop.
Nadine: That was all built after 1936 when you moved here.
Dealia: Yes.
Nadine: So it was all cow pasture before.
Dealia: All cow pasture.
Knox: Cause that was the second edition of College Park. The first edition was
closer to Welbourn Rd.
Nadine: What about the ones on Persian and Lee?
Knox: Mr. Burgeous did that starting in 1930. That was South Oakwood. It was
one of the nicer places to go. In 1937 he went on to build North Oakwood.
That's where we moved to.
Nadine: Now that's in Bryan?
Knox: In the 1940's they got their boundaries extended way south.
Dealia: I was on that development council. Les Richardson was superintendent
of schools and he told us what was going to happen and sure enough Culpepper
and them moved in the back door.
Knox: By 1940 they went way south with their boundaries.
Dealia: Consolidated school district used to be in Beverly Estates.
Nadine: That's now in Bryan.
Knox: For my brother and I to go to Consolidated, my parents had to pay extra
money.
Dealia: That's right.
Nadine: Where did the grocery store owners get their supplies from? Did they
ship them from Houston or Bryan?
Dealia: Probably Houston. You had to go to Bryan to do everything, even bank.
The original bank was where the credit union is now.
Frank: You said the old City Hall was above the grocery store, were there ever
any dentists and doctors?
Dealia: Doctor Andre started out there and after he built the building where
Circle K and Tropicana something on the corner, Dr. Catagard came, the dentist.
Nadine: Describe a good family day and a good school day. We've talked about
a bad day. What time did school start then?
Frank: Eight.
Dealia: About the same. We started in August alot of the time.
Nadine: Even before air conditioning?
Knox: Little boys never wore shoes until it got cold no matter how rich you were.
Then in the spring your shoes were off again. The girls were lady like and didn't
go barefoot. A good day would be to get in the car and take a drive with the
windows down and you'd see someone and wave. We'd see people on their
porch and go and visit someone - things people don't do today.
Frank: That's right.
Dealia: People would call on you on Sundays for visits.
Nadine: Were you expected to have refreshments?
Dealia: We'd get out the silver tray and serve coffee or tea or something.
Nadine: Where was the Bolten House?
Dealia: The big house by South Knoll.
Knox: It had three stories. This guy was the Dean of the College and Dean of
Engineering and here he was renting out part of his house for money.
Everybody did that. You worked the system.
Dealia: Oh yeah.
Knox: My mother rented out our front bedroom for a long time.
Dealia: When I first got here all they had was a big top, I guess you'd call it a
motel. So people would open their homes.
Knox: Later was the Aggieland Inn.
Dealia: It had wonderful food.
Frank: Ya'II are familiar to campus before I got here. What about students with
cars?
Dealia: When I got here students couldn't have cars. They stored them in the
Acme Glass Co. in Bryan.
Knox: They had rules about that. You had to be a Junior before you could have
them.
Nadine: They should go back to that. What kind of cars did they have?
Frank: If they were real wealthy, they had a Chrysler.
Dealia: I remember when you all were Seniors and I rode the bus and the old
bridge was so bad that I'd walk the kids across and then get back on it at the
other end because we were afraid to put to much weight on the bridge.
Nadine: How many were in your class?
Knox: About twenty -five.
Dealia: I hate to leave but I have to go. It's been good to see you.
Nadine: Could you fill these out before you go?
Frank: They won't throw this paper out because I was born in Illinois, will they?
Dorothy: You folks were so interesting to listen to because I just moved here.
Dealia: Well thank you.
