Officials used to leap off the ground when signaling TD. Also, the wing would signal with a fist (much like punching back a backward pass) toward the EZ that the runner had crossed the GL, then the R would give the TD signal.

Prior to the stripes, at least in Texas, they wore white long sleeved shirts. They threw red flags. We have a picture of my dad in this uniform around 1960.
