I have tried Google Images for you and have not come up with anything. However, since he's from Kansas City, MO, you might try contacting newspapers from that city that were in existence in those years. They may have an old photo in their archives. Also, you might try seeing if you can contact any Miami newspapers from that time that covered the fight with Kid Gavilan in Havana. They may have a photo of the fight in their records. Good luck!

EUGENE HAIRSTON\nBoxer\nEugene Hairston was born on July 23, 1930 in Harlem. He became deaf at the age of 1 after a fight with spinal meningitis. He showed talent in art, much to his father’s delight—he wanted his son to become an artist. Art was not what Hairston wanted however, he wanted to fight. He aspired to become a great boxer like Joe Louis, whom he admired. At 15, Hairston quit school to help support his family and went through a series of dead-end jobs before deciding he wanted to start boxing for a living. The Miele brothers, owners of a Bronx gym, met Hairston in 1945 and were dubious of the boy’s handwritten request—he wanted to fight. After six months the Miele brothers finally relented and let him parry punches with some members at the gym. The brothers watched Hairston go against four opponents and were convinced of his potential. They went to work with him as manager and trainer. In 1947, Hairston fought his way through the amateur boxing ranks, winning two distinguished boxing titles. After 61 bouts, Hairston won all but one and made a name for himself: Silent Hairston. From 1947 to 1953, Hairston appeared on television a total of 13 times and fought against the leading middleweight contenders of his time: Kid Gavilan, Johnny Bratton, Paul Pender and Paddy Young. He appeared in Ebony, billed as the only fighter who could beat Sugar Ray Robinson and The Ring, where he was credited as the second-leading middleweight contender in the world. Flashing lights were added to the ring posts of the arenas Hairston fought in, to alert the deaf boxer the end of a round. Flashing lights are now standard equipment for many arenas, along with the bell. In 1952 he fought against La Motta, who later wrote Raging Bull and mentioned the infamous 10-round fight with Hairston. During a bout with Carl “Bobo” Olson, Hairston received a nerve-damaging hit above his right eyebrow, ending his career at age 22.  I hope this helps.

William J. Goebel (January 4, 1856 – February 3, 1900) served as Governor of Kentucky for a few days in 1900 before he was shot by a sniper on January 30 as he walked up the steps of the state capitol. He was sworn into office on his deathbed the next day, January 31, and died on February 3. He was the only state governor in the United States to be assassinated.\n\nThis might not qualify as a "US" (federal) politician since he was a state governor, but it's an interesting factoid!

Cuba did have a couple minor league teams - the Havana Cubans, from 1946-53 (in the Florida International League) and the Havana Sugar Kings (International League) from 1954-1960.  Castro's revolution made the team unfeasible.  Currently, the trade embargo prevents any teams affiliated with US interests from locating there.  Once that embargo is lifted (probably after Castro dies), it's quite possible that a team would locate there.

It is so good to see someone looking for their mother. I am a mother trying to find her daughter. I love her so much and would do anything to see her and tell her. Look in the court house where the last time you knew of her and see if there are any public records. Look in the phone book, or call the information and ask for her name. Did you know any of her family, a brother maybe? I would love to help. There are sites where you can put your name and age where thousands look for lost loves but I quit looking there because there were sooooooooo many of them. I placed a call out here where maybe someone might have heard of her. Her name was Deborah Janean Huff born oct 29 1974 in Kansas City Kansas and raised in kc missouri. Good luck sweetie.

The Cuban Revolution was the overthrow of Fulgencio Batista’s regime by the 26th of July Movement and the establishment of a new Cuban government led by Fidel Castro in the 1950s. It began with the assault on the Moncada Barracks on July 26, 1953, and ended on January 1, 1959, when Batista was driven from the country and the cities Santa Clara and Santiago de Cuba were seized by rebels, led by Che Guevara and Fidel Castro's surrogates Raul Castro and Huber Matos, respectively. The term "Cuban Revolution" is also used to refer to the social revolution after the overthrow in 1959 to present and the adoption of Marxist principles by the new Cuban Government.
