Murphy, 1 Dan Murphy Professor Aronson and Professor Cahill Senior Thesis 5 December 2010 There’s No Crying in Baseball: Feminization, Sport, and Spectacle in the All American Girls’ Professional Baseball League Flipping through the television channels or browsing on the internet, people more and more are coming across advertisements for a new sports attraction: The Lingerie Football League (LFL). This women’s league began as a Super bowl halftime side show but has exploded in popularity and viewership. The LFL features all-female athletes, who wear helmets, shoulder pads, lingerie, and little else. The League’s Mission Statement sets out the image it would like to create for itself: “The Lingerie Football League has become the ultimate fan-driven live sports phenomenon—blending action, impact, and beauty.” 1 To obtain viewers, the league posts advertisements that exploit the sexuality of its players, sometimes having them pose with no clothes on at all.

After all, she spent years of her life exploring the Town of Milwaukee Union Cemetery, tucked away north of Bayshore Mall in Whitefish Bay. She remembered running through the cemetery as a girl "to scare ourselves on Halloween". Years later, as a neighbor and a historian, she began tending the little cemetery and quite literally, uncovering its history. Bird died of emphysema Thursday at the Glendale condominium she called home the last four years. She was 69. "She really died from cigarette smoking" said husband John D. Bird. "That's what did it." She was born Miriam Young in Milwaukee. When she was 4, her parents moved to Whitefish Bay. That was where she grew up and spent her adult life. It was also where she became the undisputed expert on local history, both in the village and the greater North Shore area. In her earlier years Bird had worked as a secretary. She met her husband when their mothers—concerned about their two twenty-something children remaining unmarried—managed to fix them up for a date.

  • A Journey Chronicling Memories of Grief and Loss
    † Designated as an Exemplary Final Project for 2017-18 A Journey Chronicling Memories of Grief and Loss Maryanne Shanahan Margaret Sartor Center for Documentary Studies April 2018 This project was submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in the Graduate Liberal Studies Program in the Graduate School of Duke University. Copyright by Maryanne Shanahan 2018 ii Abstract Storytelling is a natural and necessary human behavior. Stories connect us to our past, our present, and, most importantly, to each other. They tease our imaginations and stir our emotions. Certain stories are gifts to those who listen. Such is the case with those gifted to me on this journey exploring the grief and loss of motherless daughters. Inspired by a photograph of my grandmother, the story of her death after childbirth, and my own mother’s lifetime sadness over having lost her mother when she was very young, I conducted audio interviews with women in similar situations. I interviewed women, like myself, whose mothers lost their mothers. I also interviewed women who themselves were left motherless at a young age. In this paper, these separate stories are connected within the overarching story of my personal journey to find, listen to, and document them. I also include my own reflections on grief and loss in the context of the story of my mother and grandmother. Within the stories, I have interspersed treasured photographs and written memorabilia. I conclude the paper with a description and analysis of my process: the preparatory research, the training in audio interviewing and documentary, my approach to the interview process (including the failures, successes, and surprises along the way), and my conclusions about what I learned and accomplished as I pursued and completed the project.

  • Who's on First?
    Sue's on First Lessons learned from the oral histories of women baseball players Who's on First? An Honors Thesis (HONRS 499) by Joy Schmoll Advisor: Mark Kornmann Ball State University Muncie, Indiana May 2004 Graduating Spring 2004 Abstract , . :.!'r The girls who played in the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League of the 1940s and 1950s are often credited as pioneers whose accomplishments continue to have far- reaching effects for women. The purpose of this project is to bring new relevance to women's baseball. The current era of professional baseball has been challenged by conservative fans as lacking the strategy, the respectability, and the significance of earlier periods. I propose that by applying an understanding of the history of the AAGPBL to Major League Baseball today, the spirit of the game can be revived. The issues highlighted in this paper as a springboard for considering men's and women's baseball include fan relations, player attitude, and team organization, which are discussed within a framework of historical literature, scholarly journals, scrapbooks, and personal interviews. Acknowledgements I would like to thank Mark Kommann for advising me during the course of this project. His unending flexibility and support allowed the project to unfold naturally, and I could not have completed it without his connections in the Ball State and baseball communities. I am extremely grateful for his encouragement throughout the semester. I would also like to thank the former players of the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League, Isabel Alvarez, Shirley Burkovich, Helen Hannah Campbell, Audrey Haine Daniels, Jane Moffet, Beans Risinger, and Dolly White, for taking the time to share their memories and stories with me.

  • Women in Baseball Is a Crucial One to Understand Because It Parallels the Rise and Fall of the Women’S Liberation Movement Throughout the History of the United States
    TOMBERG RARE BOOKS PIONEERS IN THE HISTORY OF WOMEN’S BASEBALL PHOTOGRAPHIC ARCHIVE AND EPHEMERA; with a focus on the Racine Belles of the All American Girls Baseball League OVERVIEW The history of women in baseball is a crucial one to understand because it parallels the rise and fall of the women’s liberation movement throughout the history of the United States. Women’s participation in baseball is a result of social, political and economic factors that provided women the opportunity to step outside traditional roles and to participate in baseball. WORK URL 2 SCOPE AND CONTENT The Pioneers in the History of Women’s Baseball Collection dates from the early mid 1800s to the 1970s, and includes photographs, press photos, team photographs, game programs, scorecards, tickets, postcards, schedules, posters, newspaper articles, magazines, and a note, all highlighting the many women and teams that were an integral part of the history of women’s baseball. The ephemeral nature of the primary sources of the collection are rare and quite scarce due to the quasi- neglect in which women’s baseball was held by commercial and media channels. 3 PIONEERS IN THE HISTORY OF WOMEN’S BASEBALL: PHOTOGRAPHIC ARCHIVE & EPHEMERA; with a focus on the Racine Belles of the All-American Girls Baseball League $8,500 DETAILS 14 black and white photos of pioneering women in early baseball.

Throughout this issue of FOCUS, you will be introduced to alumni, faculty, and students who are making an impact as teachers, artists, healers, and philanthropists. The work of OCU has always been important. Not only do we prepare people for a wide range of career opportunities, but we instill a tradition of servant leadership that inspires our graduates and employees to “Do all the good they can.” That spirit of giving back is only strengthened by a quality, rigorous education that grooms our students for success.
