Editor's Note:
H. Allen Smith (1907-1976) was an American journalist, novelist, humorist and participant of the first ever Chili Cook-Off in Terlingua, Texas in 1967 and he also claimed to be the first man to unofficially take the first drink after prohibition ended. His writings were popular during the 1940s, 1950s and into the 1960s whether he wrote fiction or non-fiction. His most popular novel "Rhubarb" was about a cat that inherits a baseball team, the book led to two sequels and a Hollywood movie starring Ray Milland and William Frawley. For many years he was America's best-selling humorist, with lines such as "On Monday mornings I am dedicated to the proposition that all men are created jerks" and "Put it back in the horse" (on tasting some lousy-tasting American beer). In 1967, he competed against famous Texas Chili master Wick Fowler ( who at the time was a Dallas journalist himself) in a two-man chili competition. The idea for the Chili Cook-Off began when Smith wrote an article entitled "Nobody Knows More About Chili Than I Do" for Holiday Magazine. Fowler was one of many young Texans who couldn't let that statement stand without challenging Smith. The Cook-Off ended in a tie after a melee between the judges began. Beyond a doubt, Smith was a very colorful character,
