  • The Other Bill
    © Copyright 12/1/2017 Phil Sutton The Other Bill By Phil Sutton, OTC member Special to the Oregon Track Club Track and field fans know the names Bill Bowerman and Bill Dellinger. They both made their mark on the sport while coaching at the University of Oregon. Well, there was another “Bill” in sports at the University of Oregon. Bill Hayward coached at the UO for 44 years (yes, over four decades!). He was Oregon’s first full time track coach. He laid the foundation for the University Oregon’s track and field program and molded it into a national powerhouse. He is considered the grandfather of today’s Duck program. Historic Hayward Field is named in his honor. William Louis Heyward was born in 1868 in Detroit, Michigan. His last name was Heyward with an “e” but he changed the spelling to Hayward in the early 1890’s. His father was English and his mother Canadian. When Bill was ten, his parents moved to Peru to manage a rubber plantation. They left Bill, his brother and three sisters with grandparents. They raised the children for the next ten years, first in Detroit and then in Toronto, Canada. As a young man Bill lived in Vancouver, Canada. He was employed as a fireman in one of the city’s firehouse brigades. Bill and his wife also owned a fruit and cigar stand. The photo of Bill Hayward above was taken in the 1940's.

  • A Brief History of Civc Space in Portland Oregon Since World War II Including Origins of Café Soceity
    A Brief History of Civc Space in Portland Oregon Since World War II Including Origins of Café Soceity In post World War II Portland, Portlanders were in love with their automobiles, while civic leaders and engineers planned freeways and expressways and vacant land in the central city was paved over for parking lots. Robert Moses came to Portland in 1943 and laid out a blueprint for the future of Portland, one hatch marked with freeways and thoroughfares slicing and dicing the city into areas separated by high speed cement rivers. Freeways completed during this period, such as Interstate 5, tore through minority and poor neighborhoods, such as Albina, with little collective resistance. It was a good time to be a road engineer, a poor time if you were African American. Portland was proud of its largest mall, Lloyd Center; for a short period of time the largest mall in the country. It was a sign of progress. Teenagers spent their time driving between drive-in restaurants and drive-in movies, or cruising downtown streets to be seen. Adults spent their time at home in front of that marvelous new invention, the television, or often in private clubs. Nearly a quarter of all civic associations were temples, lodges or clubs. During this period, civic leaders in Portland took pride in early urban renewal projects such as the South Auditorium project that required the demolition of 382 buildings and the relocation of 1,573 residents and 232 businesses. The project effectively terminated one of Portland's Jewish and Eastern European enclaves, and dispersed a sizable gypsy population to the outer reaches of southeast Portland.
