[Texascavers] Devil's Sinkhole history

2016-03-10 Thread Mixon Bill via Texascavers
From Squire Lewis's journal of 1964 NSS convention:

> June 15, 1964, Monday. New Braunfels, Texas, Cypress Creek campground. Heavy 
> rain in a.m., glad for tent. At Imperial Motel 9 a.m., registered, found out 
> we should have been at Devil's Sinkhole in West Texas. Left, arrived 12:30 
> p.m., ran into Corrie mob in middle of wilderness, hooked up with same. Sara, 
> George, and Bruce Corrie, Ted Will, Forry, Andrea, Tom Smith. Doubled back 
> and ate in Rocksprings cafe, Lacey's—incredible scene, twenty-two of us 
> served family style, all we could eat, huge platters of chicken-fried steaks, 
> pork chops, fried chicken, etc. etc. Cost $2 each. Loafed on village square, 
> no hurry as there was a long line at the pit. San Angelo Times runs feature 
> article on the cavers, referring to us as resembling a "scene from Tobacco 
> Road." Lowered into the pit about 6 p.m., out at 7:30 in time for the bat 
> flight. The UT Grotto has lowered 203 cavers into the pit without a major 
> incident using a climbing rope rigged through a pulley to a car that they 
> drive back and forth. Our group got special permission to camp at sinkhole 
> from Mr. Witworth. Four rappelled in at midnight: Sara Corrie, Bill Kohler, 
> Bill Jasper, and Roger Craig.

Try to get permission to rappel in now. -- Mixon

Every wonder why the Spoetzl Brewery donates free Shiner Beer to TCR and
other Texas caver events?
The short answer is that Bill Steele and Don Auburn ask them for it. The
long answer is that in the early 1970s, Bill Russell funded my UT student
film about the history of Shiner Beer.
Shown to Texas legislators, the low-budget documentary built support for
special legislation that made it possible for Spoetzl Brewery and later
craft brewers to successfully compete with the mass market brands. The
Shiner folks have been grateful ever since.

I have a great, large, framed photo which I took of the breakdown and the steel 
cable ladder from the bottom of The Devil's Sinkhole in the summer of 1955. It 
is much like Jimmy Walker's 1952 shot which appears in "50 Years Of Texas 
Caving" except without cavers. I will bring it to the convention to show but 
can't enter it as I don't know how to submit it for entry consideration.

*Update*: Gregg Williams is running the Map Salon and I am running the
Photo Salon. Please email photos to me at ellie.tho...@gmail.com or bring
photos to the salon before 10am on Saturday, April 23rd. We are only
accepting hard copies of maps and you may submit them to either Gregg or
me.
