Nope the Houston Press was there in the 1950s.
They were three papers in Houston.
The Houston Post (which was very good until bought by a Canadian company and later bought by the Chronicle and shut down).
The Press was only a 6 day paper (no Sunday edition)was
bought by the chronicle and shut down.
A friend of mine here in Huntsville was the Press outdoor editor.
I found the new Houston Press on the web.

Thanks for that info. As someone who didn't move to Texas until 1980, I never had heard that before.
The Houston Press of 50 years ago would bear no resemblance to today's edition.
