See my earlier comment -- it's Maryville College from Maryville, TN; the Maryville Scots -- "MS"

#49 is definitely Truman State. The "MS" helmet is represented well in the 1968 Truman State YB. I would post some awesome pics if I could.

Maryville wore white helmets w/ a single dark stripe in 1967
(again, if I could post pics...)

So, yes, I see the same helmet in the NEMO (Truman State) yearbook too. The picture I found in the Southwest Missouri State yearbook for 1968 was mislabeled because the caption clearly says that the SWMO player is about to tackle the Maryville ball-carrier, and the ball-carrier has on that exact Truman State helmet, so it was a NEMO ball-carrier. And yes, the Maryville helmets are as described, with the single stripe. Mystery solved!

Agreed. That caption on the Missouri State photo threw me off also! Then a few pages later you see the football schedule for Missouri State in that same YB and they didn't even play Maryville that year! Awesome job on that #38 Sewanee. Some of these are frustrating to find for sure! I think I found some others but it is more of a process of elimination.

Also Maryville could have been referring to Northwest Missouri State whose located in Maryville, MO.
