U-M’s elite athletes. COACHING STAFF In his short tenure leading the University of Michigan, Clayton has made the Wolverines a force again in the Big Ten conference. A Big Ten alum and Midwest native, he took over the U-M program after spending the previous 15 seasons at Auburn University. One of the nation’s top field event coaches, Clayton has successfully developed individualized Jerry Clayton training programs for the sprints, hurdles and the field events. His work has produced 16 NCAA Head Coach individual champions, 39 international team competitors, 24 qualifiers for the U.S. OlympicTrials and 33 participants in Olympic Games and World Championship competition. He has coached ath- Jumps/Throws letes to NCAA titles in seven of nine field events as well, with All-America honors in all nine events. 3rd Season Overall, Clayton has coached 88 NCAA All-American student-athletes. He has had 158 athletes qualify for the NCAA Track and Field Championships and 115 individual conference champions. In three seasons, the Maize and Blue have claimed five conference titles under Clayton and broken five program records, including both indoor and outdoor shot put records. He also produced the program’s first-ever All-American in the heptathlon, Steven Bastien, who owns the program stan- dard in that event. Last month in Ohio, Clayton helped direct the Maize and Blue to the program’s best conference finish since 2009 (4th), two points shy of a runner-up finish. Clayton’s athletes medaled in the shot put (Sievers; 3rd) and triple jump (Stephens Jr.; 2nd) with a fourth-place finish in the weight throw (Ellis) that broke the U-M record (21.22m; 69-7.50). In his first two outdoor seasons at the helm of the program, Clay- ton has helped guide 23 U-M athletes, including 11 in field events, qualify for the NCAA East Preliminary Rounds, totaling 29 entries. A native of Rushville, Ill., Clayton was a two-time NCAA qualifier in the shot put at Illinois, where he earned his bachelor of sciences degree in physical education in 1980. Clayton and his wife, Becky, a former three-time All-American long jumper at the University of Illinois, have two sons: Zach and Nick. Zach played on Auburn’s 2010 national championship team, while Nick is a 2013 graduate of the Air Force Academy and has been selected into the pilot’s program.

  • Baseball and D-Day Welcome to the 36Th Issue of the Baseball in Wartime Newsletter
    Issue 36 June 2015 Baseball and D-Day Welcome to the 36th issue of the Baseball in Wartime newsletter . This issue focuses on the D-Day Normandy Landings. A similar feature appeared in issue 21 back in 2009, commemorating the 65th anniversary. This is a revised version as we look back on the events of 71 years ago. By the start of the 1944 season, around 340 major league players were in military service, plus more than 3,000 from the minors, and with the vast manpower shortage, just 10 minor leagues were in operation. Every branch of the service had an abundance of former ballplayers helping to fill their ranks and many were in Britain as part of the pre- invasion preparations. Among them were future Hall of Famer Yogi Berra, major leaguers Larry French, Roy Bruner, Paul Campbell, Whitey Hilcher, Earl Johnson, Art Kenney, Ted Kleinhans, Si Rosenthal, Tom Saffell, Lou Thuman, Monte Weaver and Elmer Gedeon; future major leaguers Russ Bauers, Ross Grimsley, Morrie Martin, Eddie Kazak and Bert Shepard; and minor leaguers Lefty Brewer, Syl Sturges, Elmer Wright, Hal Cisgen, John Fessler, Walt Hemperly, Ralph Ifft, Chuck Eisenmann, Joe Rundus, Lloyd Rice, John McNicholas, Joe Marco and Frank Labuda. Six of them would be dead before the end of June. The following pages provide an historical account of D-Day interwoven with biographical details of the ballplayers who were there. I hope you enjoy this account of baseball’s contribution to D-Day. I would love to hear from you and to hear your thoughts on this project, and would especially like to hear of any players that may have been omitted.

  • Gerald Ford, Considered Not Playing in the Game, Citing the Unjust Decision Based on the Color of Ward’S Skin
    a “Providential” PR ESIDENT GER ALD R. FORD AT 100 THE STORY OF A N UNEXPECTED NATIONAL LEADER by JIM KRATSAS Summer 2013 A man’s character is his fate. —Heraclitus he 1934 University of Michigan Wolverines football team en­ dured a dismal season, especially Tdiscouraging on the heels of back-to-back national championships. The team won only a single game in the fall of 1934. However, it was a victory permeated by racism: A good student and great athlete was benched because of the color of his skin, and a fellow teammate’s high prin­ ciples and character was challenged long before this student-athlete would become President of the United States. Michigan and Georgia Tech had scheduled a game for the 1934 season. That summer Georgia Tech’s legend­ ary coach, Bobby Dowd, requested that Michigan bench its best player, Willis Ward, for the contest because the Southern team would not share the field with a black man. In trade, Tech offered to bench its premier player. The Michigan athletic director and former coach, Fielding Yost, reached a “gentleman’s agreement” with its foe to make sure the game was played by having Ward sit out the game. This decision did not sit well with the Wolverines. Coach Harry Kipke protested, and Willis Ward’s best friend on the team, center Gerald Ford, considered not playing in the game, citing the unjust decision based on the color of Ward’s skin. It was a trying time for young Ford, who had waited for three years to start for his school and was now willing to give up a dream to fight a wrong inflicted on his teammate.
