The Original Upper Arlingtonian In this month of first things, our thoughts go back to the question: "Who was the The NORWESTER first resident of our district?" The series included the Messrs. Thompson, J. F. Born- hauser, then back to Jas. T. Miller; those landowners who preceded him and on to the OFFICIAL PUBLICATION Indians and Mound Builders. If, however, we were to name the first citizen of the community after it came to be known as Upper Arlington, James T. Miller is the OF Till'. man. And so Upper Arlington history will always begin with him. UPPER ARLINGTON COMMUNITY We are glad indeed of the privilege of here recording a few of the good things that have come to the Norwester concerning this gentleman. Ol'H IDEAL: " The,finest resiilenee district and the must cordial com mini it;/ ,n Ohio". Mr. Miller was born in Columbus, at the northeast corner of Rich and Sixth Streets August 14th, 1846. The firmly built little brick house is still standing. Mr. Miller Vol. I JtiHmiru 1U18 So. 3 says that it was old when he first knew it. James T. Miller with two brothers and two sisters made up the family of Henry and Almeda Miller. The children attended the old Mound Street School in their early days. The site of this building is the same as the one built in 1876 of which the writer of this sketch happens to have charge. Later the family moved to the State Street district. Mr. Miller is still connected with this school by his membership in the active organization of State Street School boys. In 1856 Henry Miller bought 850 acres, the larger part of which is represented in the present plat of (J. A. A portion of this land extended below Fifth Avenue. In 1862 the house which has since been known as the Miller home, was erected. Additions have been made from time to time as the needs of the family required, but this well constructed house is still a splendid example of the house types of the middle of the 19th century. There were not more than six houses in Columbus outfitted with plumb­ ing when this system was installed here. People came in large numbers from long dis­ tance to see this feature. The present structure is 100x42 ft. in dimension and con­ tains 22 rooms. When the Miller family moved from Columbus to the farm much of this section was wooded land. The present quarries were then in operation, but the stone was transported by wagon only. Later the railroad tracks were laid into the quarries. The Pennsylvania Railroad was then in existence but the cars and engines used were far different than present ones. Mr. James Miller married Miss Esther Everett in 1869. To them were born eight children. Samuel Huston, Henry, Eliza (Mrs. E. D. Howard), Grace, Nancy Almeda, Jessie and Ella. "Hugh" is now in the Medical Reserve Corps of the U. S. Army. Mr. and Mrs. Henry Miller lived to ripe useful old ages to enjoy the suburban life the farm afforded. For many years prior to their passing, James T. Miller had active charge of the place. General farming was carried on with perhaps special interest in the raising of good horses and shorthorn cattle. In addition to the operation of the farm, Henry and James T. Miller along with Samuel Huston entered the shoe business with stores in Columbus and Pittsburg. This business was conducted successfully for twelve years. Mr. James T. Miller has lived to see many changes in and about Columbus. He has seen it grow from a town whose center was High and Main Streets to a city of many square miles; from a few thousand inhabitants to a population of 250,000 people. Columbus was a neighboring town. Now the city, indeed the cream of the city has come out to him. A part of his farm has become the Scioto Country Club; the larger part of the remainder is the site of the most promising building site in the world. Through it all he has been a most happy even-tempered genial gentleman. A splendid host, a generous neighbor, the head of a splendid family—a community leader and a genial gentleman are some of the college degrees he carries. The Norwester Building Show Number wishes him the best the world affords, a long life, and a complete realization of his dreams of a model city, on the broad acres that were once his harvest fields.

    VARSITY O 2019 FALL NEWS LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT Fellow Varsity O Members, Happy Fall! Autumn officially means many things: students back on The Ohio State campus, the crisp air with crunchy leaves beneath each step, our fall-sport Buckeyes taking their respective fields and courts, Saturdays in The SHOE, and… Varsity O’s most exciting time of year! In early September, we celebrated our 42nd year of The Ohio State University Athletics Hall of Fame. Our incredible inductees were legends in their sport, Olympic medalists, international icons, and can I just say, “Amazing human beings that were fun, kind, humble, and gracious to be awarded with such prestige!” As we roll into October, I want to remind all of you of our Homecoming Tailgate which will be at the French Fieldhouse on October 5th from 4-7pm prior to the Michigan State game. This is a great opportunity to join Varsity O and fellow Buckeyes for a food buffet, cash-bar, music, corn-hole, photo booth, and other fun surprises we have planned. We will also be celebrating our Jim Jones Career Achievement Award and Varsity O Loyalty award winners as well! Through the 2019-2020 academic year, the University is celebrating its storied and proud history of 150 years. We are calling it, “The Sesquicentennial Year of Celebration”. And although our Athletic Department does not date quite that far back, certainly the contributions and traditions of OSU Athletics has played a storied role in the history of the BEST university in the country.

  • An Inventory of Its Dairy Trade Hearing and Docket Files
    MINNESOTA HISTORICAL SOCIETY Minnesota State Archives AGRICULTURE DEPARTMENT An Inventory of Its Dairy Trade Hearing and Docket Files OVERVIEW OF THE RECORDS Agency: Minnesota. Dept. of Agriculture. Series Title: Dairy trade hearing and docket files. Dates: [ca. 1957] – 1976 (bulk 1957-1976). Abstract: Hearing and docket files documenting the department’s role in regulating unfair trade practices in the dairy products industry, particularly the under pricing of products. Quantity: 12.1 cu. ft. (11 boxes and 2 partial boxes). Location: See Detailed Description section for box locations. SCOPE AND CONTENTS OF THE RECORDS In 1961, the administration of the Dairy Industry Unfair Trade Practices Act of 1957 was transferred from the Department of Business Development to the Agriculture Department. The purpose of the law was to stabilize prices on selected dairy products and to prevent unfair trade practices in marketing those products. It required manufacturers, wholesalers, and distributors of milk and selected dairy products to file schedules of prices at which sales would be made wholesale to retailers and governed unfair trade practices, particularly the under pricing of products. The hearings files (ca. 1960s-1976, bulk 1957-1961) consist mainly of hearing transcripts, most often with company employees; while the docket files (ca. 1957-1976) contain transcripts, assorted legal documents, and facilitative correspondence. Mainly dealing with under pricing claims, the files cover wholesalers and retailers statewide and a few in neighboring states. ARRANGEMENT OF THE RECORDS Arranged in two series: a set of numerical hearings files (ca. 1960s – 1964) and a set of docket files (ca. 1957-1976). The latter is divided into alphabetical (ca.

  • 82Nd Annual Convention of the AFCA
    82nd annual convention of the AFCA. JANUARY 9-12, 2005 * LOUISVILLE, KENTUCKY President's Message It was an ordinary Friday night high school football game in Helena, Arkansas, in 1959. After eating our pre-game staples of roast beef, green beans and dry toast, we journeyed to the stadium for pre- game. As rain began to fall, a coach instructed us to get in a ditch to get wet so we would forget about the elements. By kickoff, the wind had increased to 20 miles per hour while the temperature dropped over 30 degrees. Sheets of ice were forming on our faces. Our head coach took the team to the locker room and gave us instructions for the game as we stood in the hot showers until it was time to go on the field. Trailing 6-0 at halftime, the officials tried to get both teams to cancel the game. Our coach said, "Men, they want us to cancel. If we do, the score will stand 6-0 in favor of Jonesboro." There was a silence broken by his words, "I know you don't want to get beat 6-0." Well, we finished the game and the final score was 13-0 in favor of Jonesboro. Forty-five years later, it is still the coldest game I have ever been in. [ILLUSTRATION OMITTED] No one likes to lose, but for every victory, there is a loss. As coaches, we must use every situation to teach about life and how champions handle both the good and the bad. I am blessed to work with coaches who care about each and every player.

  • They're Gone a Decade, but Vince Lloyd's, Red Mottlow's Voices Remind of Eternal Friendships
    They’re gone a decade, but Vince Lloyd’s, Red Mottlow’s voices remind of eternal friendships By George Castle, CBM Historian Posted Tuesday, February 19, 2013 Both great men are gone nearly 10 years. But I still consider them my friends, present tense, because I still hear their distinctive voices loud and clear, whether in memories of being on the air, offering wise counsel or only skimming the top of their encyclopedia of stories and ex- periences. I’ve got to keep their memory alive, because gen- erations who never heard them or knew them de- serve the benefit of their output as men and all- time sportscasters. Vince Lloyd and Red Mottlow had great influence on me growing up. As I got to know them closely as their senior-citizen days ap- proached and progressed, my only regret – a big Red Mottlow pounding away at his type- one -- is not getting more decades with them in writer with some of his broadcast corporeal form. awards on the wall behind him. Longtime baseball announcer Lloyd should be a recipient of the Ford C. Frick Award, honoring a great voice of the game. Pioneering radio sports reporter Mottlow should have gotten his shot on the air at WGN. Subtracting these goals doesn’t take a shred away from their lifetime achievements. There was Lloyd’s rich baritone, hardly cracking when he bellowed “Holy Mackeral!” for a Cubs homer, intersecting with Mottlow’s staccato, rapid-fire “Red Mottlow, WCFL Sports” on mid-20th Century 50,000-watt Chicago-originated frequencies. There were kind, encouraging words amid the most political of businesses – sports media -- where negativity and a childish caste system still rule.
