Preferred Citation San Diego Union-Tribune photograph collection, C2, San Diego Historical Society Acquisition Information In 1957, Larry Booth, photographer and photograph curator for Union Title Co., acquired thousands of negatives slated for destruction by the San Diego Union. In 1979, these were transferred to the San Diego Historical Society. A second gift of negatives spanning 1945 to 1981 were donated to the San Diego Historical Society by the San Diego Union-Tribune Publishing Company in 1984. Together, these accessions form one collection. Biography / Administrative History The San Diego Union began publishing in 1868 when San Diego's population was barely over 2,000 citizens. Industrialist John D. Spreckels purchased the newspaper in 1890. The San Diego Evening Tribune was founded in 1895. In 1901, Spreckels also purchased the Evening Tribune. In 1928, Colonel Ira C. Copley of the Copley newspaper chain purchased both the Union and the Evening Tribune. The two newspapers operated separately until 1992 when they merged to form the San Diego Union-Tribune. The San Diego Sun was founded by editor Horace Stevens in 1881 and purchased by E.W. Guide to the San Diego C2 2 Union-Tribune Photograph Collection Scripps of the Scripps-Howard chain in 1892. The newspaper published until 1939 when it was merged with the San Diego Evening Tribune. Between 1939 and 1950 the paper was entitled the San Diego Tribune-Sun. The newspaper reverted back to the name San Diego Evening Tribune in 1950. 1868 San Diego Union began publishing. 1881 Editor Horace Stevens founded the San Diego Sun. 1890 Industrialist John D. Spreckles purchased the San Diego Union. 1892 E.W. Scripps of the Scripps-Howard chain purchased the San Diego Sun. 1895 The San Diego Evening Tribune was founded. 1928 Col. Ira C. Copley of the Copley newspaper chain purchased the Union and the Evening Tribune. 1939-1950 The San Diego Sun merged with the San Diego Evening Tribune and was entitled San Diego Tribune-Sun. 1950 The newspaper reverted back to the name San Diego Evening Tribune. 1992 The San Diego Union and the San Diego Evening Tribune merged to form the San Diego Union-Tribune. Funding Information The San Diego Newspaper Photograph Cataloging Project was made possible by a generous two year matching grant provided by the National Historical Publications and Records Commission to the San Diego Historical Society. The grant provided funding for employee salaries and supplies to describe and preserve more than 150,000 negatives in the San Diego Union-Tribune photograph collection dating from 1910-1975 (bulk 1915-1957). This represents a portion of total collection which spans through 1981. Processing Information From July 2003 through July 2005, a team of project archivists worked on-site at Historical Society to accomplish these goals. The Project Director was John Panter. Project Archivists were: Therese James, July 2003-June 2004; Jessica Silver, July 2004-June 2005. Project Assistants included Rebecca Gerber, Robert Ross, Miranda Nighbor and Emily Posedel. Project staff were assisted by Project Consultant Gabriela A. Montoya, an intern, and more than twenty volunteers from the San Diego community. Images were first cataloged in the Historical Society's in-house catalog using SydneyPLUS software. Selected descriptive information was then exported to the Online Archive of California to form this finding aid. Scope and Content of Collection The San Diego Historical Society's holdings of Union-Tribune newspaper photographs consist almost entirely of original photographic negatives of San Diego news events taken by staff photographers between approximately 1910 and 1981. This guide addresses images taken primarily between 1915 and 1957. These files contain more than 150,000 images submitted by photographers from their assignments, and are not limited to images actually published. Physical formats present include chiefly 4x5 inch glass plates, 4x5 inch film negatives, 120 film, and 35mm film, and photographic prints. The vast majority of negatives are black and white. Copy negatives are also present throughout the collection, presumably made from photographic prints loaned to the newspaper or for internal duplication purposes. Also included are photographic assignment sheets and newspaper clippings. The collection is organized into five series: Series 1, Newspaper subjects, 1910-1947 (bulk, 1915-1942); Series 2, Newspaper subjects, 1912-1975 (bulk, 1950-1957); Series 3, Activities and individuals, 1910-1951 (bulk, 1922-1948); Series 4, Activities and individuals, 1940-1960 (bulk, 1946-1957); Series 5, Photographic prints, ca. 1915-1957. Subjects present in the collection document the history of San Diego and in turn, California and the nation. Images depict local and national politics including relations with Mexico, air, rail and automobile transportation, housing and urban development, the tuna fishing industry and other business enterprises, and tourist attractions including the San Diego Zoo and San Diego's 1915 and 1935 Expositions. Also extensively documented are San Diego County community events, locations, residences and other buildings, social and religious organizations and clubs, recreational and professional sports, municipal services, education and health services, the arts, and crime. Throughout the collection are images of prominent residents and visiting dignitaries. Portraits predominate throughout all series. The extent of the images encompassed by the collection allows in-depth examination into the rapidly changing cultural, political and social mores of the region, state and nation. Arrangement The San Diego Historical Society holdings of the Union-Tribune photograph archive described by this guide are arranged in five parts, as received by the library. Series 1-4 consist of photographic negatives, and Series 5 consists of photographic prints. Series 1-4 each represent a different organizational approach employed by the newspaper when these were the current, working photographic negative files. Series 1-4 break down along roughly chronological lines, with Series 1 and 3 containing the earliest images, and Series 2 and 4, the latest. There is some date overlap amongst the four series. The Guide to the San Diego C2 3 Union-Tribune Photograph Collection internal arrangement of each series is generally alphabetical by subject or by personal surname rather than chronological. A unique local control number corresponds to each negative and identifies the series to which it belongs: Series 1. UT1 - UT8238, UT8241 Series 2. UT84:21715 - UT84:35539 Series 3. UT8326 - UT25683 Series 4. UT84:1 - UT84:21714 Series 5.

  • On the Shady Side: Escape the Heat to San Diego's Coolest Spots by Ondine Brooks Kuraoka
    Publication Details: San Diego Family Magazine July 2004 pp. 28-29, 31 Approximately 1,400 words On the Shady Side: Escape the Heat to San Diego's Coolest Spots by Ondine Brooks Kuraoka During the dog days of summer, it’s tempting to hunker down inside until the temperature drops. Cabin fever can hit hard, though, especially with little ones. If we don’t have air conditioning we hit the mall, or stake out a booth at Denny’s, or do time at one of the wild pizza arcades when we’re desperate. Of course, we can always head to the beach. But we yearn for places where energetic little legs can run amok and avoid the burning rays. Luckily, there is a slew of family-friendly, shady glens nestled between the sunny stretches of San Diego. First stop: Balboa Park (www.balboapark.org ). The Secret is Out While you’re huffing a sweaty path to your museum of choice, the smiling folks whizzing by on the jovial red Park Tram are getting a free ride! Park in the lot at Inspiration Point on the east side of Park Blvd., right off of Presidents Way, and wait no longer than 15 minutes at Tram Central, a shady arbor with benches. The Tram goes to the Balboa Park Visitors Center (619-239-0512), where you can get maps and souvenirs, open daily from 9 a.m.. to 4 p.m. Continuing down to Sixth Avenue, the Tram then trundles back to the Pan American Plaza near the Hall of Champions Sports Museum.

    San Diego Public Library TÇÇâtÄ exÑÉÜà 2000/01 The Mission of San Diego Public Library is to . Respond to the information needs of San Diego’s diverse communities. Ensure equal access to local, national and global resources. Anticipate and address the educational, cultural, business and recreational interests of the public. Develop and provide welcoming environments. DIRECTOR’ S MESSAGE Looking back on the past two years reminds me of the many accomplishments we've achieved for the San Diego Public Library. We moved forward on three capital improvement projects, beginning construction on the Mission Valley Branch Library and receiving generous donations from community members to expand both the Point Loma and the La Jolla/Florence Riford Branch Libraries. We held a variety of popular cultural events, from author presentations to concerts; welcomed chil- dren to our libraries and inspired their love of reading and learning; and reached out to the public through community events and media partnerships. Additionally, extended weekday hours were added at seven branches and Sunday hours were added at four. All were signif- icant advancements for the Library as we entered the new millennium. These achievements make us even more excited for the year to come. The new fiscal year also brought great news for the Library system. The new City Council, led by the efforts of Mayor Dick Murphy and Councilmember Jim Madaffer, showed great support for the library system on July 30, 2001, by unanimously voting to transfer $1 million to the newly formed Foundation for San Diego Central and Branch Library System as seed money for fundraising efforts.

  • Casa Del Prado in Balboa Park
    Chapter 19 HISTORY OF THE CASA DEL PRADO IN BALBOA PARK Of buildings remaining from the 1915 Panama-California Exposition, exhibit buildings north of El Prado in the agricultural section survived for many years. They were eventually absorbed by the San Diego Zoo. Buildings south of El Prado were gone by 1933, except for the New Mexico and Kansas Buildings. These survive today as the Balboa Park Club and the House of Italy. This left intact the Spanish-Colonial complex along El Prado, the main east-west avenue that separated north from south sections The Sacramento Valley Building, at the head of the Plaza de Panama in the approximate center of El Prado, was demolished in 1923 to make way for the Fine Arts Gallery. The Southern California Counties Building burned down in 1925. The San Joaquin Valley and the Kern-Tulare Counties Building, on the promenade south of the Plaza de Panama, were torn down in 1933. When the Science and Education and Home Economy buildings were razed in 1962, the only 1915 Exposition buildings on El Prado were the California Building and its annexes, the House of Charm, the House of Hospitality, the Botanical Building, the Electric Building, and the Food and Beverage Building. This paper will describe the ups and downs of the 1915 Varied Industries and Food Products Building (1935 Food and Beverage Building), today the Casa del Prado. When first conceived the Varied Industries and Food Products Building was called the Agriculture and Horticulture Building. The name was changed to conform to exhibits inside the building.

Our mission is to research the experiences of Japanese Americans in World War II Arkansas and educate the citizens of Arkansas and the nation about the two camps at Jerome and Rohwer. Major funding for Life Interrupted was provided by the Winthrop Rockefeller Foundation. We share the story of Japanese Americans because we honor our nation’s diversity. We believe in the importance of remembering our history to better guard against the prejudice that threatens liberty and equality in a democratic society. We strive as a metropolitan univer- sity and a world-class museum and to provide a voice for Japanese Americans and a forum that enables all people to explore their own heritage and culture. We promote continual exploration of the meaning and value of ethnicity in our country through programs that preserve individual dignity, strengthen our communities, and increase respect among all people.

  • The Creative Society Environmental Policymaking in California,1967
    The Creative Society Environmental Policymaking in California,1967-1974 Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Robert Denning Graduate Program in History The Ohio State University 2011 Dissertation Committee: Dr. Paula M. Baker, Advisor Dr. William R. Childs Dr. Mansel Blackford Copyright By Robert Denning 2011 Abstract California took the lead on environmental protection and regulation during Ronald Reagan‟s years as governor (1967-1974). Drawing on over a century of experience with conserving natural resources, environmentally friendly legislators and Governor Reagan enacted the strongest air and water pollution control programs in the nation, imposed stringent regulations on land use around threatened areas like Lake Tahoe and the San Francisco Bay, expanded the size and number of state parks, and required developers to take environmental considerations into account when planning new projects. This project explains why and how California became the national leader on environmental issues. It did so because of popular anger toward the environmental degradation that accompanied the state‟s rapid and uncontrolled expansion after World War II, the election of a governor and legislators who were willing to set environmental standards that went beyond what industry and business believed was technically feasible, and an activist citizenry that pursued new regulations through lawsuits and ballot measures when they believed the state government failed. The environment had a broad constituency in California during the Reagan years. Republicans, Democrats, students, bureaucrats, scientists, and many businessmen tackled the environmental problems that ii threatened the California way of life.

    Trails and Tales of Balboa Park Linda Bradley Dowdy and Anne Stephens Vafis “Wherever you live, wherever you grew up, wherever you first loved horses, the Balboa Park story will ring familiar bells for you. For those of us of ‘a certain age,’ this is how we learned to ride and love the Saddle Horse.”1 Until 1960, when a freeway interchange altered the southwest corner of Balboa Park, horse stables and 17 miles of bridle paths attracted equestrian enthusiasts, young and old. The county boasted an estimated 9,500 riding horses and 33 organized clubs.2 This article describes the people, events, and activities enjoyed by generations of San Diego horse lovers and their friends. Balboa Park’s first stable was located next to the San Diego Zoo, in the vicinity of the current Spanish Village. Dr. Harry M.
