    Luther Gulick: His Contributions to Springfield University, the YMCA

    144 Historical Journal of Massachusetts • Summer 2011 Luther Halsey Gulick II, c. 1900 (Courtesy of the Springfield College Archives) 145 Luther Gulick: His Contributions to Springfield College, the YMCA, and “Muscular Christianity” CLIFFORD PUTNEY Abstract: Based largely on hitherto unpublished archival sources, this article focuses on the early life and career of Luther Halsey Gulick II (1865-1918). Gulick was among America’s most influential educators in the Progressive Era. He is best known today for co- founding the Camp Fire Girls (CFG) with his wife Charlotte. But before his involvement with CFG he taught physical education for the Young Men’s Christian Association (YMCA) at Springfield College, Massachusetts, in the 1890s. As a professor at Springfield, Gulick achieved a great deal, and this article examines his many accomplishments, including his invention of the YMCA Triangle (the organization’s official emblem) and his role in the invention of both basketball and volleyball. The article also analyzes Gulick’s unconventional childhood, when he travelled around the world with his parents. They were Congregational missionaries who fervently hoped Luther would embrace their brand of ascetic Christianity. He preferred a religion that was more corporeal, however. This led to him becoming a leader of the “muscular Christianity” movement. Muscular Christians espoused a combination of religion and sports, although, in the Historical Journal of Massachusetts, Vol. 39 (1 & 2), Summer 2011 © Institute for Massachusetts Studies, Westfield State University 146 Historical Journal of Massachusetts • Summer 2011 end, Gulick ended up emphasizing sports over religion. Historian Clifford Putney has extensively researched the Gulick family and is the author of Missionaries in Hawai‘i: The Lives of Peter and Fanny Gulick, 1797-1883 (2010).

    The 1927 American-Japanese Friendship Doll Exchange and the Dream of International Peace

    Copyright © 2006 by the South Dakota State Historical Society. All Rights Reserved. The 1927 American-Japanese Friendship Doll Exchange and the Dream of International Peace DAVID B. HARTLEY AND KATHERINE C. HARTLEY In the introduction to his 1929 book, Dolls of Friendship, Sidney L. Gulick quoted an inscription over the gateway to an American kinder- garten in France: "We who desire peace must write it in the hearts of children."' The dream of permanent peace and friendship among na- tions was never more alive in the hearts of Americans than in the decade after the armistice that ended World War I. As seen in count- less sermons, speeches, articles, and women's club discussions fol- lowing the "war to end all wars," the desire for lasting peace resonated in the public consciousness. Never before had antiwar activists and would-be diplomats touched off such a frenzy of activity dedicated to international harmony. The Doll Messengers of Friendship project of Sidney Gulick and the Committee on World Friendship among Ghildren sent hundreds of dolls to Japan in hopes of planting the seeds of peace among its youngest citizens. The project prompted a similar goodwill gesture to- ward the United States, of whom Miss Tottori. a torei ningyo doll in the collection of the South Dakota State Historical Society, is a lovely ex- ample. Although the doll exchange was a remarkable success at the popular level, it had little influence on official diplomacy.^ In the end. 1. Sidney L.

  • From the Triangle to the Cage

    From the Triangle to the Cage

    © COPYRIGHT By Curtis Matthew Harris 2014 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED i FROM THE TRIANGLE TO THE CAGE: BASKETBALL’S CONTESTED ORIGINS, 1891 - 1910 BY Curtis Matthew Harris ABSTRACT As the United States increasingly urbanized in the late nineteenth century, white middle- class Americans faced crises of gender, racial, and class status. Fears of young men and women absorbing improper values and behavior from urban life abounded. Countering this dirty and rough landscape, middle-class reformers developed increasingly sophisticated physical education programs that promoted “clean sport” as a way to inoculate themselves from urban ills. Creating the sport of basketball in 1891 was a calculated attempt by these reformers at rescuing society through clean sport. Nonetheless, by 1910, it was apparent that basketball was not the panacea for promoting middle-class conceptions of clean sport and proper living. As basketball spread across the country, rough play, riots, and professionalism undermined the “respectable” intentions middle-class reformers had invested in the game. ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS First and foremost I must acknowledge my parents and the proud example they set for me. Through Beatrice Luchin, an ardent educator, and Dennis Harris, a firm advocate of parks and recreation programs, I have learned that my life is to serve and do right by others. To them I am forever indebted. Other persons through the years have helped make me the person and scholar I am. Three of my grade school teachers – Mickey Shannon, Gwendolyn Cash, and Jeff Cherry – deserve special praise for furthering my love of history at a young age. Callie Hawkins, Jamie Cooper, and Erin Carlson-Mast at President Lincoln’s Cottage provided my first opportunity to work as a public historian and have continuously been supportive of academic and professional endeavors.

Although it took a long time to hit my stride as a scholar, it was never because I doubted their emphasis on education or their insights into the world.

Cooper Ernest B. Schoedsack Released : 20th March, 1925 1 Merian Caldwell Cooper Date of birth: 24th October 1893, Jacksonville, Florida, USA Date of death: 21st April 1973 Merian Caldwell Cooper entered the U.S. Naval Academy with the class of 1915. He left in his senior year. In 1916 he joined the Georgia National Guard to help track down Pancho Villa in Mexico. After World War I, a new independent Poland was created from territory previously held by Germany, Austria, and Russia. Poland thus regained the independence it had lost in 1795. Almost immediately the new Polish Republic was invaded from the east by the Bolsheviks. In the spring of 1919, as a former U.S. Air Service pilot in France, he was visiting the Polish battle lines as the head of American relief work in southern Poland. When he saw the sacrifices being made by the Poles to defend their new nation, he thought up the possibility of an American volunteer squadron, similar to the Lafayette Escadrille of 1916, to assist them. He immediately went to Paris where he met a friend, Cedric E. Fauntleroy, who had been a combat pilot during the war. Together, they were granted official permission to recruit former U.S. airmen to form a Polish squadron. Seventeen Americans volunteered their services to Poland and they formed the Kosciuszko Squadron, named in honour of Tadeusz Kosciuszko, the Polish patriot who had fought so well in the American Revolution under George Washington.

    Mobility, Contacts, and the Formation of Multi-Ethnic/Racial Empires

    Mobility, Contacts, and the Formation of Multi-ethnic/racial Empires across the Pacific A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Noriaki Hoshino August 2014 © 2014 Noriaki Hoshino Mobility, Contacts, and the Formation of Multi-ethnic/racial Empires across the Pacific Noriaki Hoshino, Ph. D. Cornell University 2014 My dissertation examines Japanese and American intellectual discourses, including discourses by Christian leaders, on the topic of Japanese transpacific migrations, and sets such discourses in conjunction with related Japanese migrant practices from the beginning of the twentieth century through World War II. I focus on how both Japanese and American intellectual discourses with regard to Japanese migration reflected keen interest in the integration of heterogeneous populations in both empires. In particular, I analyze the emphasis in these discourses on the multi-ethnic/racial character of the intellectuals’ own nations and consider Japanese migrants’ responses to such discourses. I argue that the Japanese transpacific migration is an important historical factor in the development of discourses on the broader nation formation in the twentieth century. My study bridges the fields of Japanese studies and American studies and reveals new points at which transnational studies of Japanese migrations and comparative studies of racism in the Japanese and American empires converge. Overall, my study illuminates not only the parallel mechanisms of Japanese and American imperial nation formations but also the role of transpacific Japanese migration as an important site of interaction between the two countries. Such an analysis has not, to the best of my knowledge, been undertaken in either Japanese studies or American studies.
