According to articles in the Dickinson Press, this was the first football team formed for Dickinson High School in September 1911.
"The boys are forming a football team and have been practising on the school grounds this week. They were in hopes of getting a town team interested, with J. Allen Clarke and Glenn Nichols at the head so that a few games may be arranged before the season is over. Robert Hill is manager for the high school team." The Dickinson press., September 23, 1911

My brother collected vintage football team photographes. He has a large photo with students names as well as the principal Albert W. Comfort taken in 1911, D.H.S. Football. Iam not sure if it the same high school as your listed on line. Any help appreciated. Thank you,
Charles

Hello Charles,
I cannot find mention of Albert W. Comfort in relation to our school or football team. At this time we had female principals at the high school so I would guess your brother's photo is not related to our school.
