Carl Busch is pictured here. He is shown seated on a bench in a room, wearing trousers, shirt, a hat and eyeglasses. He was born and reared in Groveton n Trinity County, Texas. Busch not only played tennis 35 years ago, later he served as sheriff and was noted for preserving peace and order during his term with a gun.
