DAVIS (Under the Direction of John Weaver) ABSTRACT In this study, I write about the emotional journey of high school athletic coaches’ experiences as they move through their day as teachers, coaches, and spouses/parents. The examination of the emotions and transitions high school coaches experience has been largely unresearched. There have been examinations of teachers, the impact coaches have on athletes, and a coach as a parent, but there is not extensive research on all three roles experienced by one person. High school athletics is a tremendous part of high school, and coaches have a tremendous impact not only on their players, but on the students they teach in the classroom as well. Coaches are often more visible and identifiable than the administration.

    Win, Lose, or Draw Tribe By FRANCIS E. STANN latsWip KncfgMg Oooooh-Day for the Autograph Hounds Probably the first toumairient at which the genuine, bug-bitten golf fan* were outnumbered turned out to be one of the bigger and more democratic social events of the season. Mingling with Secre- tary of the Navy Porrestal, Gens. Eisenhower, Grove and Bradley, Admiral Nlmitz, Senator Taft and Attorney Gen- eral Clark, among others, were upward of 7,000 other guests of the Columbia Country Club, com- posed chiefly of autograph hounds and camera fiends. And who do you suppose most of the guests came to see? Der Bingle. Harry Lillis Crosby. As far as the people were concerned Bing was the biggest celebrity in the Celebrities Tournament. Bing Crosby is owner of a major league baseball team and there were two other baseball owners on hand, Clark Griffith and Del Webb. But neither owns a set of pipes like Crosby. That was the difference. That was the difference between Bing and Jack Dempsey, Gene Tunney, Bobby PMaeb BUnn Jones, Gene Sarazen, Babe Didrikson and even Baseball Commissioner Happy Chandler, a well-known tenor. It was the star-gazer’s dream come true. It was manna from Heaven for the camera shop*, whose cupboards must be empty of film. It was Oooooh-Day for the bobby soxers and autograph hounds. And for the comparatively small number of old-time golf fans the glorious pages of time were turned back when Jones, Sarazen, Bobby Cruick- shank and Walter Hagen played in the same foursome.

  • J. Ross Opening Ennouncement Boys and Girls, Did You
    10/3/48 - J. Ross Opening ennouncement Ni Boys and girls, did you ever hear the famous legend of the Trojan Horse? It's a story that goes way back to ancient times. Thousands of years ago, the Greeks and the Trojans had a war, For ten yeare the Greeks besieged the city of Troy, but they couldn't force their way inside. Yinally they resorted to trick- ery, They built this phony horee. It was a huge statue, made of wood and hollow inside. In the hollow part the Greeks hid their best warriors. Then they told the Trojans "Hey, we're your friends. See, here a nice present for you, Open your gates and take it inside the city." Well, the Trojans were a bunch of saps. They fell for the gag. They couldn't resist this beautiful statue that their enemies were handing 'em for free. Rut the minute they dragged the horse inside the city, out popped the Greek soldiers. And that was the and of the city of Troy. Even today, boys and girls, we still use the expression 'trojan horse". When an outside enemy poses as a friend and tries to beat us by means of a iy trick, we say he'a using "trojan horse taotics". For instanoe, the troublemakers who want to weaken our country. They use very special trojan hone tactice. They invent a lot of falsehoods about the different racial and religious groups who live in our country. They dress up these falsehoods vith fancy oateleword slogans. Then they sidle up to some unsus- pecting fellow and pretend to have his welfare at heart.

  • Triple Plays Analysis
    A Second Look At The Triple Plays By Chuck Rosciam This analysis updates my original paper published on SABR.org and Retrosheet.org and my Triple Plays sub-website at SABR. The origin of the extensive triple play database1 from which this analysis stems is the SABR Triple Play Project co-chaired by myself and Frank Hamilton with the assistance of dozens of SABR researchers2. Using the original triple play database and updating/validating each play, I used event files and box scores from Retrosheet3 to build a current database containing all of the recorded plays in which three outs were made (1876-2019). In this updated data set 719 triple plays (TP) were identified. [See complete list/table elsewhere on Retrosheet.org under FEATURES and then under NOTEWORTHY EVENTS]. The 719 triple plays covered one-hundred-forty-four seasons. 1890 was the Year of the Triple Play that saw nineteen of them turned. There were none in 1961 and in 1974. On average the number of TP’s is 4.9 per year.
