The Facepack and Baseball Reference image for Betts actually pictures Huck Betts. I only had time to do a quick search with this rather poor photo from the 4/23/1904 edition of the Binghamton Press and Sun Bulletin being all I could find of the real Betts. He attended Christian Brothers College in St. Louis in 1902 and 1903 so if someone finds the yearbook for that he should be in it. It's also possible the Betts listed in the 1904 Newburg, NY team photo in the Spalding Guide could be him but I couldn't confirm it.

** Thanks to prewinter's lead, Betts is pictured in a family portrait on Ancestry. I'll forward this to Baseball-Reference.
