  • The Migration of African Americans to the Canadian Football League During the 1950S: an Escape from Discrimination?
    IASE/NAASE Working Paper Series, Paper No. 07-13 The Migration of African Americans to the Canadian Football League during the 1950s: An Escape from Discrimination? Neil Longley†, Todd Crosset††, and Steve Jefferson††† June 2007 Abstract The institutional racial discrimination that existed in American professional team sports prior to World War II resulted in African American players effectively being barred from playing in the major professional leagues. Although the NFL color barrier did officially fall in 1946, to be quickly followed by the fall of the MLB color barrier one year later when Jackie Robinson made his debut for the Brooklyn Dodgers, these events were just the beginning of the struggles for African American athletes. Integration proceeded very slowly during the next two decades, and economists have shown that African Americans continued to suffer from a variety of forms of discriminatory treatment. However, it is the argument of this paper that the literature that examines discrimination during this era is incomplete, in that it ignores the experiences of a small, but relatively significant, group of African American football players who actually chose to leave their own country – and correspondingly leave the racially-charged environment of mid-20th century America – to head north to play professional football in the Canadian Football League (CFL). †Department of Sport Management, Isenberg School of Management, University of Massachusetts, Amherst, Massachusetts 01003, Phone (413): 545-5059, e-mail: [email protected] ††Department of Sport Management, Isenberg School of Management, University of Massachusetts, Amherst, Massachusetts 01003 †††Department of Sport Management, Isenberg School of Management, University of Massachusetts, Amherst, Massachusetts 01003 Beginning in 1946, a steady flow of African Americans began to migrate to the CFL which, at the time, was a legitimate competitor league to the NFL.

  • Canadian All-Stars, 1932-50
    PFRA ANNUAL 1986 1 CANADIAN ALL-STARS, 1932-50 Bob Braunwart and Bob Carroll In Canadian football the Schenley Awards sometimes overshadow the annual league all-star selections. The Schenleys have been awarded to the most outstanding player, Canadian player, lineman and rookie of each season, beginning in 1953. These are not the only talent awards in Canadian football, however. At least since 1932, sportswriters or coaches or combinations of the two have chosen eastern and western all-star teams. Some of the earlier listings have been seldom reprinted. Here is the complete list of official teams from 1932 to 1950. Presumably there were unofficial listings before 1932, but that is a topic for further research. Most of the early eastern teams were chosen by the press. It is not clear how the western all- stars were chosen. 1932 All Eastern (Canadian Press) Flying wing -- Abe Eliowitz, Ottawa Half -- Frank Turville, Hamilton Flying wing -- D.

  • The Peregrinations of Frankie Filchock
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 3, Annual (1981) THE PEREGRINATIONS OF FRANKIE FILCHOCK By Bob Braunwart, Bob Carroll and Joe Horrigan from "Professional Football Researchers Association Annual," 1981. 1946 -- FRANK IS ENMESHED IN A BETTING SCANDAL. World War II had just been brought to a victorious conclusion, but this time there was no immediate return to normalcy. The war had wrought many changes in American life, not the least of which was a strong sense of moral siege. With the Cold War continuing from where the real one had left off, America felt threatened by subversion at home and aggression abroad. As if foreign-inspired political threats weren't enough to worry about, in December the startling news broke that professional gamblers had attempted to fix the National Football League's title game. Although there had been rumors of a police investigation around New York the previous week, the story was first confirmed in radio broadcasts only a few hours before the game. The earliest newspaper accounts appeared December 16, the day after the game. According to the Associated Press: "Alvin J. Paris, a self-styled 'big bettor' on athletic contests, was arraigned on a bribery charge, accused of having offered Merle Hapes and Frank Filchock, Giant backfield men, $2,500 each to agree not to play their best in the championship contest. "Police exonerated both players but Hapes was kept out of the game at the order of Bert Bell, commissioner of the league. Filchock, the key man in the Giants' backfield, played virtually all the game." Later revelations established a more complete story.

  • Mr. Touchdown Evolution of a Canadian Record
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 4, No. 1 (1982) MR. TOUCHDOWN EVOLUTION OF A CANADIAN RECORD By Robert Sproule In the Canadian variety of football kicking has always been the most important method of scoring. In the early days there was no forward pass to complement the run, but when the mass of bodies plugged up the running game there was always the option of kicking over the opponents' heads for a score. Oh, there were occasions when several touchdowns (or "trys" as they were then called) were scored in a game. But they were less common than the times when the great kickers, who could score five to eight singles in a match, were in top form. Kicking was a crucial part of every team's offense, but even in the early years there were players who excelled in lugging the ball over the line, and who did it often enough to earn the title of "Mr. Touchdown." Big-league football in Canada started in 1907, when the four strongest teams in the Quebec and Ontario Rugby Football Unions decided to band together and form the Interprovincial Rugby Football Union, otherwise known as the "Big Four." The first player to become Mr. Touchdown was Julian "Dub" Sale of the Toronto Argonauts. He finished the inaugural Big Four season with four trys in the six-game schedule: two by rushing and another two by fumble returns (a common means of scoring then). Although he played with the Argos from 1905 to 1907, his last year was the first season of the I.R.F.U.
