It was here that The American Legion took many of the important first steps that were to shape the destiny of this great veterans organization. It was here that The American Legion voted to authorize the establishment of an Auxiliary. It was here that Indianapolis, Indiana, was selected as the site of our permanent National Headquarters. The constitu- tion of the new American Legion was adopted here. We still have an American Legion Auxiliary, one of the finest women’s organizations in the world. We still maintain our permanent National Headquarters in Indianapolis, Indiana. The Preamble to the Constitution adopted by The American Legion at that first National Convention exists in its original form today, having been altered by a single letter in the ensuing years. The letter “S” was added to the word war to encompass veterans of World War II, Korea, and now Vietnam. Those things speak well for the stability of an organiza- tion formed for the purpose of further service to God and country, and for the wisdom and foresight of our Founders. Though the ranks of our Founders have been thinned by the relentless march of time, their handiwork endures. The organization they founded is today more than four times the size of The American Legion at the time of that First National Convention. The Legion met in National Convention in the twin city of St. Paul in 1924 and again in Minneapolis in 1959. This 57th history that have been lived in these surroundings, and Annual National Convention is our fourth in this area. pledge ourselves anew to ever greater efforts on behalf of the principles and ideals enunciated so clearly here in November During our busy days here, let us give serious thought to at of 1919. least one matter other than that of the Convention proper.

  • An Analysis of the American Outdoor Sport Facility: Developing an Ideal Type on the Evolution of Professional Baseball and Football Structures
    AN ANALYSIS OF THE AMERICAN OUTDOOR SPORT FACILITY: DEVELOPING AN IDEAL TYPE ON THE EVOLUTION OF PROFESSIONAL BASEBALL AND FOOTBALL STRUCTURES DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Chad S. Seifried, B.S., M.Ed. * * * * * The Ohio State University 2005 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor Donna Pastore, Advisor Professor Melvin Adelman _________________________________ Professor Janet Fink Advisor College of Education Copyright by Chad Seifried 2005 ABSTRACT The purpose of this study is to analyze the physical layout of the American baseball and football professional sport facility from 1850 to present and design an ideal-type appropriate for its evolution. Specifically, this study attempts to establish a logical expansion and adaptation of Bale’s Four-Stage Ideal-type on the Evolution of the Modern English Soccer Stadium appropriate for the history of professional baseball and football and that predicts future changes in American sport facilities. In essence, it is the author’s intention to provide a more coherent and comprehensive account of the evolving professional baseball and football sport facility and where it appears to be headed. This investigation concludes eight stages exist concerning the evolution of the professional baseball and football sport facility. Stages one through four primarily appeared before the beginning of the 20th century and existed as temporary structures which were small and cheaply built. Stages five and six materialize as the first permanent professional baseball and football facilities. Stage seven surfaces as a multi-purpose facility which attempted to accommodate both professional football and baseball equally.

About a year and a half lat- er, we started working on what would eventually become our biggest release, Twin Cities Funk & Soul: Lost R&B Grooves From Minneapolis/St. Paul 1964-1979. What follows is our attempt to share with you some of the amazing stories, history, and photos that have been so gracious- ly shared with us during the course of producing a compilation of soulful tunes from our hometown. ..... R&B, soul, and funk music in the Twin Cities of Minneapolis and St. Paul, Minnesota went through dra- matic changes during the 1960s and 1970s. Predating these changes, a vibrant jazz scene beginning in the 1920s laid the groundwork with several players being instrumental in helping teach young local R&B mu- sicians how to play. However, many of the early R&B pioneers, including Mojo Buford, Maurice McKin- nies, and Willie Walker, came to Minnesota from other states and brought the music with them.

  • Comments for Southwest Transitway DEIS Scoping Document
    From: Todd Larson To: [email protected] Subject: SW LRT Comment Date: 10/14/200808:18 AM Hello, I live a few blocks from the proposed Wooddale station. The proposed alignments that would go through Uptown or Nicollet would be a really slow trip. The 667 bus that I take would be a much faster ride. The Kenilworth route looks like it might be the fastest. Uptown and Nicollet are served by buses every couple minutes, so they really don't need the proposed LRT. Thanks, Todd Larson 3020 Colorado Ave. S. Stlouis Park I. O(~5 From: arthur higinbotham To: swcorridor Subject: DEISInput Date: 10/29/2008 02:05 PM Attachments: SW LRTALTERNATIVE 3C IMPROVEMENTS.doc ALTERNATIVE LRT STATION LOCATION FOR GREENWAY.doc Please consider the attached as input to the DEIS Commentary on the SW LRT. lOlCoS- ALTERNATIVE LRT STATION LOCATION FOR GREENWAY LRTROUTE Ifthe SWAA study on ridership and other factors indicate that the Kenilworth corridor is the preferred route for the Southwest LRT, then the proposed park-and-ride station at Lake S1. is the only feasible location for a stop in the CIDNA neighborhood. If, however, the study shows that an LRT route along the Greenway and then down Nicollet Avenue is preferred and recommended, then consideration should be given to locating the station at Dean Parkway instead ofat the current proposed Lake St. site for the following reasons: 1. The ridership may be greater from a Dean Parkway location than the Lake S1. location, given the proximity ofhigh density residences, such as the Calhoun Beach Club and apartments, Lake Pointe tower, and the yet incomplete Lander and Ackerberg projects, as well as apartments on Dean Parkway and the Dean Court complex.
