  • Wilmer Lawson Allison Jr W5VV *1904-1977* Wilmer Born in San
    ilmer Lawson Allison Jr W5VV *1904-1977* Wilmer born in San Antonio was an American amateur tennis champion of the 1930's. With all of this, how could our subject find W time for ham radio activities? Allison’s career was somewhat overshadowed by the arrival of Don Budge, but he was both a fine singles player and along with his frequent partner, John Van Ryn, a great doubles player. Right-handed, Allison’s greatest triumph was winning the 1935 U.S. Championship singles, defeating Fred Perry in the semi- finals and Sidney Wood in the finals. He had previously lost to Perry in the fifth set in the 1934 finals. He was ranked U.S. No.1 both years and World No.4 in 1932 and 1935. At Wimbledon, Allison lost the 1930 title to Bill Tilden. As a doubles player with partner John van Ryn, Allison won the 1929 and 1930 Wimbledon and 1935 U.S. doubles championships. Allison’s last major tournament was a 1936 quarter-final loss to Bunny Austin. At the University of Texas at Austin, Allison was the Intercollegiate tennis champion in 1927. In his 1979 autobiography Jack Kramer, who had a fine volley himself, devotes a page to the best tennis strokes he had every seen. He writes: “Forehand Volley – Wilmer Allison of Texas, who won the 1935 Forest Hills, had the best I ever saw as a kid and I’ve never seen anyone since hit one better.” George Lott, who himself won 5 U.S doubles titles as well as 2 at Wimbledon, wrote an article May 1973 issue of Tennis Magazine in which he ranked the great doubles teams and the great players.

  • 1 Regulating Sex Work Adrienne D
    Regulating Sex Work Adrienne D. Davis1 VERY ROUGH DRAFT: please do not circulate or quote without permission Most commentators on sex markets focus on the debate between abolitionists and those who defend and support professional sex workers. This paper, instead, looks at debates among the pro-sex work camp, uncovering some latent tensions and contradictions. It shows that, within the sex as labor camp, some stress the labor aspect, urging that professional sex workers constitute a “vulnerable population,” similar to other laborers who perform highly risky and/or exploited labor, and should be regulated accordingly. In this view, sex work would be assimilated into other labor. Others, though, take a more libertarian approach. They exceptionalize this form of labor, arguing that because it is sexual it should be exempt from state scrutiny and interference. In sum, while both agree that professional sex work should be decriminalized, when one turns from the criminal to the regulatory perspective, the paper shows how libertarians and assimilationists could not be more opposed. The paper contends that neither of these views is satisfactory. Sex work could very well be legalized—if we have the political and moral will to do so. The paper explores a regulatory structure that might govern sex work markets. To do so requires a break with both assimilationism and erotic exceptionalism. The paper proceeds in four parts. The first part explores the discourse and debate over professional sex. It summarizes, briefly, the abolitionist position, often identified as the dominant feminist position. It then turns its attention to the pro-sex work camp, teasing out various strains.
