I don't think the baseball style hats came in to use until the 50's. Before then, it was the white Ben Hogan type hats. Flags didn't start until the late 40's/early 50's. Before then it was a penalty horn.

Hi Jim,

My Father played @ Baylor University from 1948 - 1950. I have a photo of him with the Official behind him. The official was not wearing a hat, but he did have that V - neck sweater on.
