On November 13, 1925, Spindletop produced its second major oil boom when the Yount-Lee Oil Company used new technology to drill on the flanks of Spindletop Hill.
As a result of this discovery – and the wealth that followed, Miles Yount and his wife, Pansy, soon became known as some of the most important breeders of horses in the United States.
Gladys City will celebrate this historically important second Spindletop boom with a historical lecture in the morning.

Spindletop Gladys City, on the Lamar Beaumont Campus, is a great place to learn more... Read More
