  • Social and Political Aspects of the Development of Cycling in Pomorze Zachodnie (West Pomerania) in the Years 1945–1950
    #0# Central European Journal of Sport Sciences and Medicine | Vol. 30, No. 2/2020: 5–14 | DOI: 10.18276/cej.2020.2-01 SOCIAL AND POLITICAL ASPECTS OF THE DEVELOPMENT OF CYCLING IN POMORZE ZACHODNIE (WEST POMERANIA) IN THE YEARS 1945–1950 Ryszard Stefanik,A, B, D Maciej ZawadzkiB, D University of Szczecin, Faculty of Health and Physical Education, Poland A Study Design; B Data Collection; C Statistical Analysis; D Manuscript Preparation Address for correspondence: Ryszard Stefanik Wiosny Ludów 24/67, 71-471 Szczecin, Poland E-mail: [email protected] Abstract The article presents the determinants of the development of cycling in the areas incorporated by Poland in the first years after the Second World War. The biggest contribution into this process was made by people from large cities, pre-war enthusiasts and athletes who undertook the hardships of social activity and the engagement of local youth. Sports organizations were controlled, but also supported, by state authorities that used mass events in the propaganda policy and actions aimed at integrating the Northern and Western Lands with the rest of the country. This was an important task due to the difficult living conditions and marauding groups of criminals for whom Pomorze Zachodnie constituted an area of criminal activity, mainly plundering former German property, as well as attacking. Polish settlers. The development of cycling in Szczecin was favored by the German infrastructure, including a concrete track often used in national championships. At the end of 1949, sport in Poland was reorganized and centralized, making it similar to the Soviet model, where there was no room for social measures.

  • BOP Word Version Module 1
    By becoming knowledgeable about peace, young people will be better prepared to help shape a better future for humanity. These modules challenge students to take a closer look at what peace means around the world, and dare them to find solutions to violence and end conflict throughout their lives. As a starting point, four distinct educational modules have been created. These modules are primarily designed for 14 -16 year old students, but can be adopted to address a wider range of grade levels, and cover a range of curriculum areas. Each module takes a “thematic” approach: An Understanding of Peace – explores the notion of peace as more than simply the absence of war and examines the factors that influence a country’s peacefulness. Peace and Sustainability – helps your students understand the impact of peace on global sustainability, with a focus on water access and management. Education and Peace – examines what “drives” peace, focusing on the role education plays toward a country’s peacefulness. Economics and Peace – investigates the benefits of peace to business and the economy through an exploration of the tourism and retail industries. Each module contains lesson plans to stimulate and challenge the students. While each activity is discrete, they have been designed to build upon one another and support the students to develop an understanding of how peace impacts their lives. All the teaching materials needed are provided, including student handouts, assessment suggestions and extension activities. Thank you for downloading our peace materials to use in your classrooms! 1 Module One Module 1 An Understanding of Peace Lesson Overview 2 This module explores students’ understanding of peace and what we objectively know about global peace.

  • THE FRENCH CONNECTION Houghton CC and Le Tour …………..The Missing Links………………And More(Useless Information)
    THE FRENCH CONNECTION Houghton CC and Le Tour …………..the missing links………………and more(useless information). In this historic year of the 2014 TdF Grand Depart taking place right here in the North of England, The Tootler has collected together a few interesting facts associating our great club with the worlds greatest bike race and some of the heroic riders who make the connection; roughly, possibly.Admittedly they are loose connections but there are worse things than being loosely connected so taking the advice of Ernest Hemingway to “write drunk, edit sober”, in this late night conceived and rambling compilation Tootler will attempt to connect Houghton CC, the late great Chis, the Vaux Grand Prix road race and the Tour de France. Firstly some relevant background information. For the benefit of recent members (and those under sixty five) the great Chis was a Houghton grammar school boy called Peter Chisman who joined the club in 1954 and who, apart from a wonderful career as an amateur and a professional also inspired hundreds of kids to take up bike racing. In the north east, at least in bike racing terms, the ninteen sixties and seventies were the belle epoque, the beautiful era, a golden time. Friday night at the clubrooms would be packed. There was a separate time trial and road racing notice board. The time trialling notices, race details and start times would be displayed on the RTTC notice board; and the BCF notice board would detail all road races, entrants, times, meeting points etc for those members racing on the road that weekend.

    JAMES O. EASTLAND COLLECTION FILE SERIES 4: LEGISLATIVE FILES SUBSERIES 11: INTERNAL SECURITY SUBCOMMITTEE LIBRARY The U.S. Senate eliminated the Internal Security Subcommittee in 1977. In 1977-78, Senator James O. Eastland began transferring his congressional papers to the University of Mississippi. Among the items shipped were publications from the subcommittee’s library. Due to storage space concerns and the wide availability of many titles, the volumes were not preserved in toto. However, this subseries provides a complete bibliographic listing of the publications received as well as descriptions of stamps, inscriptions, or enclosures. The archives did retain documents enclosed within the Internal Security Subcommittee’s library volumes and these appear in Box 1 of this subseries. The bibliographic citation that follows will indicate the appropriate folder number. Call numbers and links to catalog records are provided when copies of the books are in the stacks of the J.D. Williams Library or Special Collections. Researchers should note that these are not necessarily the same copies that were in the Internal Security Subcommittee library or even the same editions. If the publications were previously held by the Internal Security Subcommittee, the library catalog record will note James O.
