  • Aspects of Moral Reform in Early Nineteenth-Century Pennsylvania
    Aspects of Moral Reform in Early Nineteenth-Century Pennsylvania ILLIAM WARREN SWEET, the noted historian of religion in America, epitomized a popular view of America's moral Wfiber during the early national period in the following words: "The unanimous testimony of all religious leaders of all the religious bodies following the close of the [Revolutionary] war was that there was a rising tide of iniquities fast sweeping American youth to the brink of ruin; that the people were indulging in vices hitherto unknown among them . there was a 'lamentable decay of vital piety,' a prevalence of vice and a degeneracy of manners 'that called loudly for repentance and reformation. / "* Independence created many changes and spawned many new ideas which gravely concerned religious leaders in the new Republic. Economic gains caused the upper classes to move away from spiritual interests toward the more mundane. The rationalism of French and English freethinkers led to the common-sense philosophy in America which questioned everything from the Diety to the devil. Deism, a logical outgrowth of rationalism, became prominent in America during its early history. Troubled and perhaps threatened by the apparent degeneration of religion and mounting secularization of American life, certain individuals believed it their duty to reform society by reshaping America in "heavenly form." These reformers were convinced that they had an obligation to save their fellow man because they saw themselves as the guardians of mankind and the stewards of society. They attempted to bring America into the heavenly fold by elimi- nating beliefs and practices which they considered immoral and corrupt.

  • PA Guidance for All Sports Permitted to Operate During COVID
    Guidance for All Sports Permitted to Operate During the COVID-19 Disaster Emergency to Ensure the Safety and Health of Employees, Athletes and the Public Issued June 10, 2020 Intent The virus that causes the Coronavirus 2019 Disease (“COVID-19”) is easily transmitted, especially in group settings, and it is essential that the spread of the virus be slowed to safeguard public health and safety.

It can also be spread by touching a surface or object that has the virus on it and then touching your mouth, nose or eyes. This guidance document addresses the procedures sports organizations and teams must follow to limit the spread of COVID-19 to the extent they are permitted to conduct in-person operations. This guidance is preliminary and will be updated as more public health data and other information is available. Organizations Subject to This Guidance The Commonwealth is employing a regional and industry-specific approach to reopening non- life sustaining businesses. For more information, and up to date county designations, please refer to the Commonwealth’s Phased Reopening website.

Sports organizations and teams may only conduct in-person operations if they are able to do so in accordance with all applicable guidance. They are not required to reopen per this guidance. Significance of Red-Yellow-Green Phases for Sports in Pennsylvania No sports (professional, collegiate, Pre-K to 12, recreational or amateur) are allowed in counties designated as being in the Red phase.

    LEVEL PLAYING FIELDS: THE DEMOCRATIZATION OF AMATEUR SPORT IN PENNSYLVANIA by W. CURTIS MINER B.A., INDIANA UNIVERSITY OF PENNSYLVANIA, 1984 M.A., UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH, 1989 Submitted to the Graduate Faculty of Arts and Sciences in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Pittsburgh 2006 UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH ARTS AND SCIENCES This dissertation was presented by W. Curtis Miner It was defended on 11/20/2006 and approved by Kathleen M. Blee, Professor, Department of Sociology Laurence Glasco, Associate Professor, Department of History Van Beck Hall, Associate Professor, Department of History Dissertation Advisor: Edward K. Muller, Professor, Department of History ii Copyright © by W. Curtis Miner 2006 iii Level Playing Fields: The Democratization of Amateur Sport in Pennsylvania W. Curtis Miner, PhD University of Pittsburgh, 2006 This dissertation examines how amateur sports once dominated and controlled by Pennsylvania’s Leisure Class became accessible to non-elites over the course of the twentieth century. Rising standards of living and increased leisure time were pre-requisites for broader public participation. But this study argues that the democratization of amateur sport depended on the active intervention of the state and, to a lesser extent, the market, both of which broadened access to privately controlled playing fields. In hunting, state game management restored wild game populations, thus ensuring a bountiful supply of game for all Pennsylvanians, irrespective of social class. Likewise, the first municipally owned golf courses, often situated in public parks, offered the only alternative to the private courses which up to that point dominated the game and regulated participation.

  • 1 in the UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT for the EASTERN DISTRICT of PENNSYLVANIA NOREEN P. KEMETHER : CIVIL ACTION : V. : : PENNSY
    IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF PENNSYLVANIA NOREEN P. KEMETHER : CIVIL ACTION : v. : : PENNSYLVANIA INTERSCHOLASTIC : NO. 96-6986 ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION, INC. : MEMORANDUM AND ORDER Re: Post Trial Motions YOHN, J. November , 1999 Plaintiff Noreen Kemether brought this action under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972, and the Pennsylvania Equal Rights Amendment (“ERA”) alleging that the Pennsylvania Interscholastic Athletic Association, Inc. (“PIAA”) discriminated against her based on her gender by refusing to give her the opportunity to officiate high school boys’ interscholastic basketball games. After trial from December 7 to December 18, 1998, the jury returned a verdict against the defendant on all counts and awarded damages in the amount of $314,000. Presently before the court are defendant’s post-trial motions for judgment as a matter of law under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 50(b) or, in the alternative, for a new trial under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 59. Because defendant failed to move for judgment as a matter of law at the close of all of the evidence as required under Rule 50, and thereby failed to preserve its right to renew the motion post-trial , I will deny defendant’s motion for judgment as a matter of law. Furthermore, as the verdict is not against the great weight of the evidence, I also will deny defendant’s motion for a new trial. 1 I. BACKGROUND After a jury verdict, the court cannot substitute its view of the evidence for that of the jury; accordingly, all evidence and inferences therefrom must be taken in the light most favorable to the verdict winner.
