ROTARY CLUB OF ORLANDO COMPLETING A CENTURY OF SERVICE 1995 - 2020 Service Above Self (This page represents inside front cover-blank) ROTARY CLUB OF ORLANDO COMPLETING ROTARY CLUB OF ORLANDO A CENTURY OF SERVICE COMPLETING A1995 CENTURY - 2020 OF SERVICE The continuing story of the Rotary Club of Orlando and the men and women who served their club, their vocation, their community and the world from 1995 to 2020 thus completing a century of service. The creation of this book was managed by Rotary Club members: Bert McCree, Dr. Byron Thames and Jim Stowers Copyright © 2020 The Rotary Club of Orlando All rights reserved. Printed in the United States of America. No part of this book may be used or reproduced in any manner without written permission. Printed by Aloma Printing, Inc. Winter Park, Florida ii Dedicated to the past and present members of the Rotary Club of Orlando who have contributed greatly over the last One Hundred Years in making their community the finest place in the world to live. A NOTE TO READERS It is important to note that most of this book was near completion when the world was struck with what became known as the Covid-19 virus, or Coronavirus Pandemic. It literally infected people around the world and as of this writing on May 19, 2020, more than 4,800,000 cases had been reported with more than 316,500 deaths. In reading some sections you may find reference to this event; additional information may be found in the Addendum on page 91. iii iii INTRODUCTION The first Century of Service to our community and to the world, May 1920 to May 2020, is now complete and what a remarkable Century it has been! It is truly inspiring to think of the hundreds and hundreds of leaders and members who’ve come and gone but, in the meantime, have given of themselves in countless ways along the way. Rotarians – men and women from all walks of life – who truly believe in their core that “He Profits Most Who Serves Best” and that this is not just a nice saying but is a way of life. The Rotary Club of Orlando is proud of the impact we have had on our community over the last 100 years, the lives we’ve helped, the legacy we’ve left and, yes, the fun we’ve had. It is exciting to look back at all that has been accomplished in this past century but it is even more exciting that we can now look forward to the next 100 years, the second 100 years, and imagine the even greater accomplishments that lie ahead for this wonderful club. Yours in Rotary, Jim Stowers ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Without the tremendous effort over the past several years by Bert McCree, RCO club Historian, our book would not have been possible. He spent many hours poring through files in our club office digging and retrieving the data that was then used by the Book Committee to create “Completing a Century of Service”. In 2018, (then) President Pat Phillips and (then) President-Elect Bill Peeper recruited and organized the Book Committee under the leadership of Dr. Byron Thames. The committee was composed of George Huffman, Thomas Tart, Mary Ann Dean, Jon Stine, Byron Thames, Jim Stowers, Heidi Isenhart, Joe Stine, Bob Blackford and Tom Reich. In addition, Bert McCree (Historian) and Doug Doudney (initial Editor) completed the committee. Over a period of many months, important decisions were made by the committee as to the direction, tone and construction of the book as well as the actual writing of the history. In addition, Special Thanks must be given to Bob DeGrilla for his assistance with the club members who have served in the military, to Ron Tyo who has faithfully maintained those members with perfect attendance, to Richard Ungaro whose diligence in maintaining the club member database has been of invaluable help, to David Abrams who gave invaluable technical help and finally to Jason Frazier for his amazing photographic assistance. The baton for the next (and final) phase was handed off to Jim Stowers who became “Ring Master” leading to the completion and printing of the book. iv iv WHEREAS, The Rotary Club of Orlando, the oldest and largest civic service club in The City Beautiful, was founded on May 12, 1920; and WHEREAS, in the ten decades since then, the club and its Rotarians have been committed to serving our community, our nation and the world; and WHEREAS, the foundation of the club’s activity is its five Avenues of Service – club, vocational, community, international, and youth service; and WHEREAS, since its inception, the club has helped young residents thrive through its support of Orange County Public Schools literary activities, food pantry contributions, and holiday gift programs; and WHEREAS, the club and its foundation annually distribute financial grants to local organizations serving the health, humanitarian and educational needs of the community, including Rotary International’s partnership with the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation to eradicate polio worldwide; and WHEREAS, while demonstrating its belief in the Rotary International motto of “Service Above Self,” the club and its foundation have provided innumerable other service projects that have benefited our community; and WHEREAS, the City of Orlando and our residents are grateful for The Rotary Club of Orlando’s 100 years of service and thank the club and its Rotarians for their compassionate role in building a stronger community; NOW, THEREFORE, I, BUDDY DYER, Mayor of the City of Orlando, hereby do proclaim May 12, 2020, as “The Rotary Club of Orlando 100th Anniversary Day” in the City of Orlando.

    The Battles of Germantown: Public History and Preservation in America’S Most Historic Neighborhood During the Twentieth Century

    The Battles of Germantown: Public History and Preservation in America’s Most Historic Neighborhood During the Twentieth Century Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By David W. Young Graduate Program in History The Ohio State University 2009 Dissertation Committee: Steven Conn, Advisor Saul Cornell David Steigerwald Copyright by David W. Young 2009 Abstract This dissertation examines how public history and historic preservation have changed during the twentieth century by examining the Germantown neighborhood of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Founded in 1683, Germantown is one of America’s most historic neighborhoods, with resonant landmarks related to the nation’s political, military, industrial, and cultural history. Efforts to preserve the historic sites of the neighborhood have resulted in the presence of fourteen historic sites and house museums, including sites owned by the National Park Service, the National Trust for Historic Preservation, and the City of Philadelphia. Germantown is also a neighborhood where many of the ills that came to beset many American cities in the twentieth century are easy to spot. The 2000 census showed that one quarter of its citizens live at or below the poverty line. Germantown High School recently made national headlines when students there attacked a popular teacher, causing severe injuries. Many businesses and landmark buildings now stand shuttered in community that no longer can draw on the manufacturing or retail economy it once did. Germantown’s twentieth century has seen remarkably creative approaches to contemporary problems using historic preservation at their core.

    Making “Good” Citizens: Education, Citizenship, and the National

    MAKING “GOOD” CITIZENS: EDUCATION, CITIZENSHIP, AND THE NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF COLORED WOMEN, 1920-1941 by QUIN’NITA FRANSHAE COBBINS (Under the Direction of Chana Kai Lee) ABSTRACT After ratification of the Nineteenth Amendment, the National Association of Colored Women (NACW) experienced a myriad of changes that turned their focus to political education and citizenship. Clubwomen used formal and informal settings to disseminate civic knowledge, create civic programs, and educate women on their newly acquired franchise in order to achieve full citizenship rights and equal access to quality education. In the process, they articulated and practiced tenets of civic republicanism that shaped their concept of citizenship. The clubwomen committed themselves to civic responsibilities such as voting intelligently, respecting laws, pledging loyalty for protection of civil liberties, and actively participating in civic activities to work on behalf of the race and country; which in turn worked for the common good. Ultimately, these civic activists created spaces to achieve some level of political influence and agency within their communities and the government.

    A Home Away From Home: Recreation Centers and Black Community Development in the Bay Area, 1920-1960 By Natalie N Novoa A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Waldo E. Martin, Chair Professor David Henkin Professor Ula Taylor Summer 2019 Abstract A Home Away From Home: Recreation Centers and Black Community Development in the Bay Area, 1920-1960 By Natalie N Novoa Doctor of Philosophy in History University of California, Berkeley Professor Waldo E. Martin, Chair In this dissertation, I argue that recreation centers played a pivotal role in the black community as sites of racial uplift, political activism, and as a conduit to public service agencies in the San Francisco Bay Area. My work links literature in urban history and African American history to demonstrate the unique circumstances the city landscape presented to African Americans and how they not only responded to those circumstances, but also how they shaped them, especially during World War II. In particular, the project examines the ways in which black-founded and black-directed recreation centers acted as an affirmative alternative to the confrontations and humiliations that awaited them at segregated recreational venues as well as public amusements and accommodations. In addition, this work explores why, how, and with what consequences these black recreation centers contributed to the changing geography of the Bay Area. Creating their own agendas separate from white reformers and city officials, who believed structured recreation was a way to control and exercise surveillance over delinquent youth, black leaders viewed these recreational spaces as opportunities to provide community members with the necessary tools to challenge the racism they faced at work, school, and in the streets.

WESTERN NEW ENGLAND LAW REVIEW Volume 42 2020 Issue 3 “NOT AS A FAVOR, NOT AS A PRIVILEGE, BUT AS A RIGHT”: WOMAN SUFFRAGISTS, RACE, RIGHTS, AND THE NINETEENTH AMENDMENT JOAN MARIE JOHNSON* This brief history of the woman suffrage movement shows how various suffragists believed the right to vote for women was a human right that all American citizens should possess, while other suffragists viewed their struggle as one for respect and protection from abusive men. These differences are particularly salient in the fraught role of black woman suffragists, who, while dedicated to the cause, were frequently unwelcome in the white-dominated state and national movements. In January 1910, white suffragist Alva Belmont met with three black suffragists—Irene Moorman, Sarah Garnet, and Maria Lawton—to discuss forming a black branch of Belmont’s suffrage organization.
