Celia Carroll's memories of the University of Texas Underwater Society were written in 1968.  I asked her if this club patch mentioned above was the one designed by Gary Howsley as a "Sea Steer"?  She said yes, though she had only seen it as a logo on her  dive qualification card from the club.  Her response as to why she wrote the early history of the club is shown below.
