War of the Classes by Jack London
War of the Classes By Jack London 1 WAR OF THE CLASSES BY JACK LONDON AUTHOR OF "THE SEA-WOLF," "CALL OF THE WILD," ETC. Contents: Preface The Class Struggle The Tramp The Scab The Question of the Maximum A Review Wanted: A New Law of Development How I Became a Socialist 2 PREFACE When I was a youngster I was looked upon as a weird sort of creature, because, forsooth, I was a socialist. Reporters from local papers interviewed me, and the interviews, when published, were pathological studies of a strange and abnormal specimen of man. At that time (nine or ten years ago), because I made a stand in my native town for municipal ownership of public utilities, I was branded a "red-shirt," a "dynamiter," and an "anarchist"; and really decent fellows, who liked me very well, drew the line at my appearing in public with their sisters. But the times changed. There came a day when I heard, in my native town, a Republican mayor publicly proclaim that "municipal ownership was a fixed American policy." And in that day I found myself picking up in the world. No longer did the pathologist study me, while the really decent fellows did not mind in the least the propinquity of myself and their sisters in the public eye. My political and sociological ideas were ascribed to the vagaries of youth, and good-natured elderly men patronized me and told me that I would grow up some day and become an unusually intelligent member of the community. Also they told me that my views were biassed by my empty pockets, and that some day, when I had gathered to me a few dollars, my views would be wholly different,--in short, that my views would be their views. -

AAA Club Newsletter No. 21, June 1968
JOHN FITZSIMONS (Polytechnic Harriers) ISSUE No. 21 JUNE, 1968 Join me in acup of OVALTINE it helps put back what the day takes out Photographs were supplied by Mark Shearman, 23, Lynwood Drive, Worcester Park, Surrey. Some Problems and Pitfalls of Sports Publishing REGINALD MOORE Managing Editor of a. London publishing house OMEBODY, sometime had to make a plea to sports publishers. This is it. In S the main, publishers do a noble job with sport: there is very little possibility that a really worthwhile biography, memoir, instructional or record book—to mention only a few divisions of the subject—could slip through their eager hands and remain unpublished. Moreover, many of the best sports books originate in publishing offices. I have been largely responsible for the sports lists of two publishing houses over the past fourteen years, and it has always been my policy, if I find that for one reason or another my own house cannot take a MS that holds a certain promise, to advise the author where next to submit it. And this has also happened in reverse. So the sports books reach the public, via bookshops and libraries (but rarely in paperback, more's the pity) in an unending flow. Sport is not unique in this respect. Altogether 26,000 new book titles are published in Great Britain every year and the literature of every specialized interest is well served. Nevertheless, there are sure signs that too much run-of-the-mill stuff is having its effect on sportsbook buyers, on those who read the sports pages of Sunday newspapers, too. -

Llewellyn ©2010 Matthew P. Llewellyn Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy May 2010 The dissertation of Matthew P. Llewellyn was reviewed and approved* by the following: Mark S. Dyreson Associate Professor of Kinesiology Dissertation Adviser Chair of Committee R. Scott Kretchmar Professor of Kinesiology James Thompson Professor Emeritus of Kinesiology Garry Chick Professor of Recreation, Park and Tourism Management Martin Polley Senior Lecturer of Sport History University of Southampton, UK Special Member Karl M. Newell Professor of Kinesiology Head of Department of Kinesiology *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School ii Abstract As the cradle of modern sport, Britain‘s rich sporting history contributed significantly to the nation‘s identity both at home and abroad. Through their governance and control of leading bureaucratic organizations and clubs, the British established and maintained a position of leadership both on and off the field. Britain‘s early sporting dominance, coupled with the use of sport as medium for shaping the abilities, values and character of a British governing class, cultivated a belief that sport played a crucial role in the acquisition and consolidation of British hegemonic power. After an initial period of unrivalled dominance, Britain‘s monopolistic position as leader of modern sport eventually came under serious assault. Britain‘s historical sporting supremacy—similar to her imperial and economic power in general—was relative, not absolute; a position predicated more on the weaknesses of her opponents rather than her own strengths. -

There is great excitement and anticipation as to what the next 12 months will hold. At this time it is important that we look backwards and recognise our great history as a sport, and we should also look forwards to future generations of athletes.
