    MINNESOTA TWINS BASEBALL CLUB METROPOLITAN STADIUM HOME OF MINNESOTA TWINS /EprP.1n/inf/ /I , AMERICAN LEAGUE _j1,, i'; , Upp er /'ZIweoi Year of the Great Confluence For the big-league starved fans of the Upper Midwest, the Big Day came on October 26, 1 9 d6a0t,e of the transfer of the American League Senators from Washington to the Minneapolis and St. Paul territory, and the merger of three proud baseball traditions. For their new fans to gloat about, the renamed Minnesota Twins brought with them three pennants won in Washington, in 1924, '25 and '33, and a world championship in 1924. Now, their new boosters could claim a share of such Senator greats as Clark C. (Old Fox) Griffith, Wolter (Big Train) Johnson, Joe Cronin, Lean (Goose) Goslin, Clyde (Deerfoot) Milan, Ed Delahanty, James (Mickey) Vernon, Roy Sievers, and others. Reciprocally, the Twins could now absorb the glories of 18 American Asso- ciation pennants - nine won by St. Paul and nine by Minneapolis - in 59 seasons. They could be reminded of the tremendous pennant burst by St. Paul in 1920, with the Saints winning 115, losing only 49, posting a .701 percentage, and running away from Joe McCarthy's second-place Louisville Colonels by 28 1/2 games. Mike Kelley, the American Association's grand old man, managed that one and four other Saints flag winners before buying the Minneapolis club and putting together three more championship combinations. The pattern for winning boll in St. Paul was set early, in the first year of minor league ball, in fact.

    LINE DRIVES THE NATIONAL COLLEGIATE BASEBALL WRITERS NEWSLETTER (Volume 44, No. 6, Dec. 16, 2005) The President’s Message By NCBWA President Todd Lamb Holiday Greetings to everyone! Did the holidays sneak up on you this year? Somehow, I was able to find time to write this before I start my holiday shopping. Of course, don’t tell my wife. We still have a while before the season starts. Thank goodness because as I write this, Columbus is getting between two and four inches of snow. Forgive me if I have a difficult time thinking about college baseball right now. I keep trying to remind myself I’ll be traveling with our baseball team to Florida four times in February and March so my winter won’t be quite as long. By now you should have received the NCBWA Preseason All-America teams we announced Tuesday, Dec. 13. Congratulations to everyone who had a student-athlete named to one of our three teams. We released the preseason All-America teams early so SIDs have time to include them in media guide bios and media members can include the information in stories. The teams are included in this newsletter. I know I’m plugging away at our media guide this week and next before we head off to our bowl game against Notre Dame. In the near future, we’ll be sending out information about how to make nominations for the second annual NCBWA Stopper of the Year. Dave Fanucchi with USA Baseball will be heading up the award this year.

    Southern News Summer 2013

    A letter from the president FSC Is Making Entrepreneurship Part of Our Mission Whenever I speak with people about Florida Southern College, I always emphasize that our mission is to prepare the highly talented young people entrusted to us to make a positive and consequential impact on our nation and our world. Our graduates do that in so many ways: in the classic professions of law, medicine, science, and religion, and also by starting their own businesses. As a land of unparalleled opportunity, America has been a place where entrepreneurs thrive, and we believe that FSC has helped our graduates take advantage of that opportunity. Over the years, the Barney Barnett School of Business and Free Enterprise has had outstanding faculty members who have inspired their students to dare to accomplish great things. Some of our alumni, through the training they have received here as well as through skill and courage, have taken the risk of becoming entrepreneurs and succeeded in building businesses that have provided essential goods and services to millions of Americans. I hope you will read the inspiring stories in the following pages of nine of our alumni who are proud entrepreneurs and business owners. They represent many more FSC alums who are admirably fulfilling our mission. That mission goes on, and the Barney Barnett School of Business and Free Enterprise is building on its legacy of excellence. You will also read in this edition of Southernnews about ground being broken for the new, state-of-the-art Becker Business Building that will be the future home for the Barnett School.
