    I ¡Qt>. 565 MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL PRINCIPAL PLAY-BY-PLAY ANNOUNCERS: THEIR OCCUPATION, BACKGROUND, AND PERSONAL LIFE Michael R. Emrick A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate School of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY June 1976 Approved by Doctoral Committee DUm,s¡ir<y »»itti». UNIVERSITY LIBRARY 11 ABSTRACT From the very early days of radio broadcasting, the descriptions of major league baseball games have been among the more popular types of programs. The relationship between the ball clubs and broadcast stations has developed through experimentation, skepticism, and eventual acceptance. The broadcasts have become financially important to the teams as well as the advertisers and stations. The central person responsible for pleasing the fans as well as satisfying the economic goals of the stations, advertisers, and teams—the principal play- by-play announcer—had not been the subject of intensive study. Contentions were made in the available literature about his objectivity, partiality, and the influence exerted on his description of the games by outside parties. To test these contentions, and to learn more about the overall atmosphere in which this focal person worked, a study was conducted of principal play-by-play announcers who broadcasted games on a day-to-day basis, covering one team for a local audience. With the assistance of some of the announcers, a survey was prepared and distributed to both announcers who were employed in the play-by-play capacity during the 1975 season and those who had been involved in the occupation in past seasons.

Cowan M.A., University of Cincinnati, 2003 B.A., King College, 1999 Committee Chair: Dr. David Stradling Abstract This dissertation examines the growth of tourism as a strategy for downtown renewal in the postwar American city. In the years after World War II, American cities declined precipitously as residents and businesses relocated to rapidly-expanding suburbs. Governmental and corporate leaders, seeking to arrest this decline, embarked upon an ambitious program of physical renewal of downtowns. The postwar “urban crisis” was a boon for the urban tourist industry. Finding early renewal efforts ineffective in stemming the tide of deindustrialization and suburbanization, urban leaders subsidized, with billions of dollars in public finances, the construction of an infrastructure of tourism within American downtowns. By the latter decades of the period, tourist development had moved from a relatively minor strategy for urban renewal to a key measure of urban success.

  • The Postmodern Ballpark As a Leisure Setting: Enchantment and Simulated De-Mcdonaldization
    Leisure Sciences, 23:99–113, 2001 Copyright C 2001 Taylor & Francis ° 0149-0400/01 $12.00 + .00 The Postmodern Ballpark as a Leisure Setting: Enchantment and Simulated De-McDonaldization GEORGE RITZER TODD STILLMAN University of Maryland College Park, Maryland As ballparks have grown in size to accommodate ever larger crowds, they have be- come increasingly rationalized or McDonaldized. However, rationalization brings with it disenchantment, that is, when they are rationalized, stadiums and other sites of con- sumption can lose the magical qualities that attract consumers. Recently, in an effort to attract larger crowds, ballparks have undergone a process of reenchantment whereby the magical allure of the ballpark is simulated to increase the consumer appeal of a rationalized setting. This article explores the applicability to contemporary ballparks of the various mechanisms involved in reenchantment, including such postmodern tech- niques as extravaganzas, simulations, implosions, and manipulations of time and space. We show that the evolution of the ballpark not only supports the reenchantment thesis, but also underscores the increasing commercialization of leisure. We also argue that the apparent de-McDonaldization that accompanies reenchantment is largely super cial and arti cial; it is simulated de-McDonaldization, which remains rational at the core. Keywords consumption, enchantment, McDonaldization, baseball, stadiums, post- modernism, simulation It has always been nearly impossible to draw a clear line between leisure sites and consump- tion settings. Visiting a leisure site always involved the consumption of things like the leisure site itself, the activities, food, souvenirs, and so on. However, in the past, a visit to a leisure site was mainly about leisure, and the consumption that occurred there involved mainly the site and the activities that transpired in it.

    ENTERTAINMENT LAW REPORTER LEGAL AFFAIRS Arsenio Hall Case: The Novel Aspect by Chester L. Migden The decision of the Labor Commissioner ordering X Management, Inc. to reimburse Arsenio Hall over $2 million in commissions (see ELR 14:5:4) is a resounding affirmation of the classic Buchwald case, sometimes re- ferred to as the "Jefferson Airplane" case, some years ago. The basic premise is personal managers operating their business without talent agency licenses may not so- licit employment for their clients. Doing so is a violation of the Talent Agency Act which allows the Labor Com- missioner to order reimbursement of commissions. VOLUME 14, NUMBER 5, OCTOBER 1992 ENTERTAINMENT LAW REPORTER After Buchwald (no relation to Art), the Talent Agency Act was amended to provide a one year statute of limita- tions to integrate the impact of that type of decision. It was one of the gains made by the personal managers in the legislature in the early '80's. Since its enactment no one was sure how the statutory one year rule would work. The importance of the Hall case is that it is some construction! It is more than just interesting. The Act on this point provides: "No action or proceed- ing shall be brought pursuant to this chapter with respect to any violation which is alleged to have occurred more than one year before the commencement or proceeding." The Labor Commissioner's decision says this means that if a violation occurred more than a year before the petition to hear the controversy is filed then the Labor Commissioner has no jurisdiction to hear the contro- versy.
