TO THE MEMBERS OF THE CORPORATION: The Report which I present to you to-day is the seventh annual Report which I have addressed to you. One year ago I presented to this body my resignation as President of the Institute, in order to undertake a work which, as it seemed to me," has the prospect of being far-reaching in its effects on American education. At that time nothing was ft/rther from my thought than that I should stand before you to-day as youi" President. This arrangement has been continued at the wish of the Executive Committee in order that certain problems should be advanced a little nearer completion, and in order that full time might be taken for the selection of a successor. The Executive Committee hopes to present to you, within a very brief pel'iodl a President of the Institute in my place; and that which I say now must therefore be said in the capacity of one who lays down the work rather than in the capacity of one who expects to carry it on. CHANOBS IN CORPORATION AND FACULTY. J During the past year there has been a number of changes in the Corporation of the Institute. We have 16st by death Charles Merdam and Samuel Cabot, the latter called away in the midst of health and comparative youth. By resignation we have lost George A. Gardner and Thornton K. Lothrop, two men who have served the Massachusetts Institute of TeCh- nology long and well. IO MASSACHUSETTS INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY. This year has marked the beginning Of a new policy; that is, the election of members of the Alumni as term members. The following nine men have been by this means added to the Cor- poration: Frederick iI. Newell, Richard H. Soule, Eben S. Stevens, for three years; Frcderick K. Copeland, Joseph P. Gray, Frank L. Locke, for four years; Thomas C. du Pont, Charles T. Mainl Frederick W. Wood, for five years." In the Executive Committee there have been two resignations, those of Mr. A. Lawrence Lowell and of Mr. Howard Stockton. In the place of Mr. A. Lawrence Lowell, Mr. Charles A. Stone has been elected. The vacancy left by Mr. Howard Stock- ton remains yet to be filled, x In the Faculty there have been the following changes: As- sociate Professor William L. Puffer in Electrical Engineering has resigned. The following associate professors have been appointed full professors: William O. Crosby, Frederick S. Woods, and Harry M. Goodwin. The following assistant professors have been appointed associate professors: Augustus H. Gill, Arthur G. Robbins, Frank A. Laws, Charles E. Fuller, William A. Johnston, Charles F. Park, and Frank P. McKibben. The following instructors have been appointed assistant pro- fessors: Nathan R. George, Archer T. Robinson, Charles E. Locke. Two new appointments have been made of more than usual significance. The first is that of Professor Dugald C. Jackson to be Professor of Electrical Engineering and head of the Elec- trical Engineering Department. Professor Jackson comes to us from the University of Wisconsin, where he occupied a similar place and where he has built up the very successful school of electrical engineerin.g which now exists

Full Time 246 Chapter 1 Wembley 1967 S dream starts to new jobs go, even Carlsberg would have struggled to improve on Bobby Brown’s. Appointed A Scotland team manager only two months earlier, on 11 April 1967 he oversaw his team beating England, then reigning world champions, at Wembley, English football’s impressive and emblematic stadium. It was his first full international in charge and England’s first loss in 20 games. To defeat the world champions, Scotland’s most intense and enduring rivals, in these circumstances was an outstanding achievement, like winning the Grand National on your debut ride or running a four-minute mile in your first race. The date is enshrined in Scottish football history as one of its most memorable days. In fans’ folklore, it was the day when Scotland became ‘unofficial world champions’ by knocking England off their throne – and what could be sweeter for a Scottish fan? As Brown said, in his understated way at the time, ‘It was a fairly daunting task for your first game in charge.

  • Secret Societies and Subversive Movements by Nesta Webster (1924)
    SECRET SOCIETIES AND SUBVERSIVE MOVEMENTS BY NESTA WEBSTER (1924) In addition to covering modern conspiracies, this book traces some of the oldest secret societies for which any history is known, including the ancient mystery religions, the Assassins, the Knights Templars, the Jewish Cabalists, and the Alchemists of the Middle Ages. Webster is an excellent researcher, but her extensive footnotes have been reduced in this volume to increase readability. Her well researched commentaries on the Knights Templars are especially helpful, given the common misconceptions about the society.

  • How Football Began Brings Range, Precision and Sources to Bear on the Matter
    ‘The origins of football’s many codes and their complex relationship to each other has been one of sporting history's great grey areas, dominated by hearsay and invention. No longer. Tony Collins’ cool and illuminating How Football Began brings range, precision and sources to bear on the matter. As is often the case, the truths that emerge are infinitely more interesting than the myths they dispel.’ David Goldblatt, Author of The Ball is Round: A Global History of Football and The Game of Our Lives HOW FOOTBALL BEGAN This ambitious and fascinating history considers why, in the space of sixty years between 1850 and 1910, football grew from a marginal and unorganised activity to become the dominant winter entertainment for millions of people around the world. The book explores how the world’s football codes – soccer, rugby league, rugby union, American, Australian, Canadian and Gaelic – developed as part of the commercialised leisure industry in the nineteenth century. Football, however and wherever it was played, was a product of the second industrial revolution, the rise of the mass media, and the spirit of the age of the masses. Important reading for students of sports studies, history, sociology, development and management, this book is also a valuable resource for scholars and academics involved in the study of football in all its forms, as well as an engrossing read for anyone interested in the early history of football. Tony Collins is Emeritus Professor of History in the International Centre for Sports History and Culture at De Montfort University, UK. His previous books include Rugby’s Great Split, Rugby League in Twentieth Century Britain, A Social History of English Rugby Union and The Oval World – each of which won the Lord Aberdare prize for sports history book of the year – as well as his global history Sport in Capitalist Society.

  • The Origins of Working-Class Spectator Sport: Lancashire, England, 1870-1914 John K
    11. John Walton_Articulo 11/01/2013 22:21 Página 1 The Origins of Working-Class Spectator Sport: Lancashire, England, 1870-1914 John K. WALTON Ikerbasque / Universidad del País Vasco (EHU) [email protected] Recibido: 6 de abril de 2012. Aceptado: 24 de abril de 2012. Abstract This article examines the development of working-class commercial spectator sport in the English county of Lancashire, especially the areas where the cotton industry dominated in the south and east, during the late nineteenth and early twentieth century. It argues that the growing popularity of profes - sional Association football, coupled with similar developments in other sports, made this pioneer industrial area the location of a new kind of sporting culture, as part of the wider development of a working-class consumer society, and that this has global implications. Key words : Sport; spectators; consumers; industry; working class; Lancashire. Los orígenes del espectador de clase obrera en el deporte: Lancashire, Inglaterra, 1870-1914 Resumen Este artículo investiga el desarrollo de los deportes comerciales para la clase obrera en el condado inglés de Lancashire, sobre todo en los distritos dominados por las fábricas de algodón en el este y el sur, hacia fines del siglo XIX y a principios del siglo XX. Propone que la popularidad creciente del fútbol, combinado con las innovaciones parecidas en otros deportes, construyó un modelo nuevo de cultura deportiva en este distrito industrial pionero, formando parte del desarrollo más amplio de una sociedad de consumidores de la clase obrera, con consecuencias de ámbito global. Palabras clave : Deporte; espectadores; consumidores; industria; clase obrera: Lancashire.

    Scotland 2020 2/23/05 3:22 PM Page 1 About Demos Demos is a greenhouse for new ideas which can improve the quality of our lives. As an independent think tank, we aim to create an open resource of knowledge and learning that operates beyond traditional party politics. We connect researchers, thinkers and practitioners to an international network of people changing politics. Our ideas regularly influence government policy, but we also work with companies, NGOs, colleges and professional bodies. Demos knowledge is organised around five themes, which combine to create new perspectives. The themes are democracy, learning, enterprise, quality of life and global change. But we also understand that thinking by itself is not enough. Demos has helped to initiate a number of practical projects which are delivering real social benefit through the redesign of public services. We bring together people from a wide range of backgrounds to cross-fertilise ideas and experience. By working with Demos, our partners develop a sharper insight into the way ideas shape society. For Demos, the process is as important as the final product. www.demos.co.uk Scotland 2020 2/23/05 3:22 PM Page 2 First published in 2005 by Demos and the Scottish Book Trust © Demos Some rights reserved – see copyright licence for details ISBN 1 84180 138 0 Copy edited by Julie Pickard Typeset by Land & Unwin, Bugbrooke Printed by HenDI Systems, London For further information and subscription details please contact: Demos Magdalen House 136 Tooley Street London SE1 2TU telephone: 0845 458 5949 email: [email protected] web: www.demos.co.uk Scotland 2020 2/23/05 3:22 PM Page 3 Scotland 2020 Hopeful stories for a northern nation Edited by Gerry Hassan Eddie Gibb Lydia Howland With a foreword by George Reid MSP Scotland 2020 2/23/05 3:22 PM Page 4 Open access.Some rights reserved.

  • University Microfilms
    INFORMATION TO USERS This dissertation was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again — beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation.

Statement of use of third party for editorial help I can confirm that my thesis was copy edited for conventions of language, spelling and grammar by Transformat Ltd. 1 Abstract This thesis sets out to explain the limited representation of English players in Premiership football. As a nation, England appears to be producing an insufficient number of players who are believed capable of playing at the highest level of the game. Available data has suggested that less than 40% of footballers who started Premier League games in recent years are English.

WE DEMAND A PUBLIC INQUIRY! SATANIC VOICES 3 "Roses are Red, Violets are Blue. I'm Schizophrenic, and so am I." SATANIC VOICES 4 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Most of the people who have helped in this enterprise have done so posthumously; and in some cases, inadvertantly. Nevertheless they deserve recognition. Nesta H. Webster deserves a very special mention. Her courage in taking on the occult 'Establishment' is an inspiration to us all. Other sources are provided in the bibliography, and the rest mentioned in passing. Some important contributors do not appear in this particular work, and warrant an entire book dedicated to them, and their selfless dedication to justice and the establishment of a benevolent system of government. Foremost among these is Abraham Lincoln whose 1864 'Islamic' monetary policy caused him to be assassinated, by the owners of the 'Satanic Purses'. For his tireless efforts in trying to expose the corruption and institutionalised fraud in our occult banking and judicial system, a special thank you goes to John Derek Pett, co-founder of The National Association for Victims of fraud and Banking Malpractice; along with Mr and Mrs Alfred Cullinane, Paul Jenkins, Robert Owen, J.
