Armco's Semi-Pro Teams
THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 10, No. 2 (1988) ARMCO'S SEMI-PRO FOOTBALL TEAMS Courtesy of Armco Corp. The fervor for sports which pervaded the Ashland and Middletown communities in the twenties caused the Armco Associations of both cities, in the fall of 1924, to sponsor and develop semi-professional football teams. The majority of the players were in the employ of the Company. It was an era when the Canton Bulldogs and the Ironton Tanks were nationally known for their prowess in the professional football field. The Portsmouth Spartans and the Dayton Triangles were also severe competition. From 1924 to 1929 the Ashland and Middletown teams were maintained at high efficiency, and their home matches drew large crowds. The rivalry between Ashland and Middletwon was keen, and the records show that Ashland won six to Middletown's two over the years. Some understanding as to the semi-pro calibre of Armco football can be gained from the roster of college players on the Middletwon "Armco Blues" during the five years it was promoted. They included: Forest McGuire, Swathmore; Johnie Becker, Dennison; Dal Gardner, University of Illinois; Pick Reiter, Miami; Joe Cox, Ohio State; Wyatt McCall, Miami; Johnnie Schott, University of Cincinnati; Jerry Tobin, Purdue; "Pude" Beatty, St. Xavier; Wendell Tussing, Georgia Tech; Ad Strosnider, University of Dayton; Buford Potts, University of Missouri; Mat Alger, St. Xavier; Ward Brashares, Miami; Mark Crawford, Purdue; "Swede" Fredirckson, Miami; Pup Graham, Chicago Cardinals; Howard Heavy, University of Cincinnati; Pat Marts, Ohio State; Tom Mincher, Miami; Jim McMillan, Purdue; Clifford Morgan, University of Missouri; Don O'Brien, Purdue; Earl Sullivan, St. -

NFL 1926 in Theory & Practice
THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 24, No. 3 (2002) One division, no playoffs, no championship game. Was there ANY organization to pro football before 1933? Forget the official history for a moment, put on your leather thinking cap, and consider the possibilities of NFL 1926 in Theory and Practice By Mark L. Ford 1926 and 2001 The year 1926 makes an interesting study. For one thing, it was 75 years earlier than the just completed season. More importantly, 1926, like 2001, saw thirty-one pro football teams in competition. The NFL had a record 22 clubs, and Red Grange’s manager had organized the new 9 team American Football League. Besides the Chicago Bears, Green Bay Packers and New York Giants, and the Cardinals (who would not move from Chicago until 1959), there were other team names that would be familiar today – Buccaneers (Los Angeles), Lions (Brooklyn), Cowboys (Kansas City) and Panthers (Detroit). The AFL created rivals in major cities, with American League Yankees to match the National League Giants, a pre-NBA Chicago Bulls to match the Bears, Philadelphia Quakers against the Philly-suburb Frankford Yellowjackets, a Brooklyn rival formed around the two of the Four Horsemen turned pro, and another “Los Angeles” team. The official summary of 1926 might look chaotic and unorganized – 22 teams grouped in one division in a hodgepodge of large cities and small towns, and is summarized as “Frankford, Chicago Bears, Pottsville, Kansas City, Green Bay, Los Angeles, New York, Duluth, Buffalo, Chicago Cardinals, Providence, Detroit, Hartford, Brooklyn, Milwaukee, Akron, Dayton, Racine, Columbus, Canton, Hammond, Louisville”. -
The Rock Island Independents
THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 5, No. 3 (1983) THE ROCK ISLAND INDEPENDENTS By Bob Braunwart & Bob Carroll On an October Sunday afternoon in 1921, the Chicago Cardinals held a 7-0 lead after the first quarter at Normal Park on the strength of Paddy Driscoll's 75-year punt return for a touchdown and his subsequent extra point. If there was a downside for the 4,000 assembled Cardinal fans, it was the lackluster performance of the visitors from across state--The Rock Island Independents. But the Independents were not dead. As a matter of fact, their second quarter was to be quite exciting--and certainly one of the most important sessions in the life of their young halfback, Jim Conzelman. It would be nice if we only knew in what order the three crucial events of that second quarter occurred, but newspaper accounts are unclear and personal recollections are vague. Certain it is that the Islanders ruched the ball down the field to the Chicago five. At that point, Quarterback Sid Nichols lofted a short pass to Conzelman in the end zone. After Jim tied the score with a nice kick, the teams lined up to start all over. At the kickoff, Conzelman was down the field like a shot--the Cardinals were to insist he was offsides. Before any Chicagoan could lay hand on the ball, Jim grasped it and zipped unmolested across the goal line. Another kick brought the score to 14-7, as it was to remain through the second half. The third event of that fateful second quarter was the most unusual, but whether it happened before Conzelman's heroics to inspire him or after them to reward him is something we'll probably never know. -

THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 15, No. 3 (1993)
THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 15, No. 3 (1993) IN THE BEGINNING Famous (or forgotten) firsts for every NFL franchise By Tod Maher The following is a comprehensive listing of various first games played by every member, past and present, of the National Football League; its predecessor, the American Professional Football Association; and the American Football League, which merged with the NFL in 1970. Each team's first game ever, first league game, first home league game, first league win and first playoff game are listed. In some cases, one game fills more than one category. A few historical notes are also included. When first ever is in italics, that means it's the earliest known game for that team, but there are earlier games that aren't documented yet. The years of a team's APFA / NFL membership are given in parenthesis, as are the scores of the games involved. AKRON PROS / INDIANS (1920-25 / 26) First ever, Oct. 3, 1920, vs Wheeling Stogies (43-0; first league, home, and win, Oct. 10, 1920, vs Columbus Panhandles (37-0).

ST. LOUIS GUNNERS by Bob Gill
Fourth PFRA Annual (1983) 1 THE ST. LOUIS GUNNERS By Bob Gill In the early years of the N.F.L., generally low interest in pro football often made it difficult to keep the league's poorer teams afloat, and it was not at all uncommon for clubs to drop out in the middle of a season. With scheduling not particularly regulated in those days, other league teams who had lined up games with the dropouts were left to find other opponents to replace them, or take a Sunday off. But since the split of the N.F.L. into two divisions in 1933, only one team has been forced to close up shop during the season -- the 1934 Cincinnati Reds. By that time the league had achieved a sufficient degree of stability to make it rather embarrassing just to cancel the Reds' remaining games. Instead, for the first and only time in N.F.L. history, a team was admitted to the league in mid-season to complete the defunct club's schedule: the St. Louis Gunners, unquestionably the strongest independent pro team in the country at the time. Though the St. Louis franchise folded after completing the 1934 season, it still -- by virtue of its unique entry into the league -- is an interesting footnote to N.F.L. history. * * * The Gunners had not been the first pro team in St. Louis. Back in 1923 a team called the St. Louis All- Stars had played a season in the N.F.L., winning only one game, though holding several good teams to respectable scores. -

Judicial Biographies 1912
The Judicial Biographies Of The Municipal Court Of Cleveland 1912 to 2017 487 Joseph N. Ackerman Joseph Nathan Ackerman was a state senator and a judge, and was best known for being the father of beer in Ohio. Ackerman was born in Austria-Hungary in 1889, and came to Cleveland in 1912. He attended law school through Baldwin Wallace College, graduated in 1915 and was admitted to the Ohio bar. In 1918 and 1920, he made unsuccessful runs for state senate. Undeterred by his second place finishes, Ackerman would make a successful run at the state senate as a Republican in 1925. He would go on to serve four terms in total, continuing to 1933. Ackerman gained widespread fame for introducing to the State Legislature the bill which legalized beer in Ohio. He received the greatest reception ever given a returning legislator when he arrived from Columbus on May 31, 1933. The passage of his “Beer Bill” assured everyone in the state had an opportunity to have a drink the next week. A huge crowd assembled in Union Terminal to greet him as he emerged from his train. A band blasted out the tune “Wien Bleibt Wien” (Vienna remains Vienna) and a parade route lined with revelers went up and down Euclid Avenue. As the parade kicked off, fire rose from barrels on pretzel-factory trucks, beer trucks and on old-time, horse-drawn beer wagons. Fireworks shot off on East Sixth Street. “We want beer! We want beer!” shouted revelers on Euclid Avenue. Ackerman rode to the Hotel Hollenden in a convertible, waving like Charles Lindbergh, home from his trans-Atlantic flight.
