MARY’S RESEARCH TIP Coal mining has been a part of Madison County for its entire history. The Illinois State Geological Survey has 15 pages of mines listed in its directory of coal mines in Madison County. This information (maps and data) for every coal mining county in Illinois is available free at http://www.isgs.illinois.edu/research/coal/maps/county. Another good (and free!) resource for coal mines and miners in Illinois is the website “Wayne’s World of History & Genealogy” located at http://www.gillespieil.com/ilcoalmines.html. One section lists coal mines by county, which can include both the history of the mines in that county and also an alphabetical list of fatalities in the mines.

  • Whitey Ford and the Best Marketing Event Ever by Charles B. Wendel
    Whitey Ford and the Best Marketing Event Ever By Charles B. Wendel Maybe not the best, but close. And joyful. It was the fall of 1995, 40 years after the one and only time the Brooklyn Dodgers won a World Series. In fact while I don’t remember that event, but some people of a certain age would say it was the greatest day in Brooklyn’s history. Manufacturers Hanover Bank, whom I consulted to when I was at McKinsey had combined with Chemical (now Chase). While the name changed, its Middle Market unit remained the leader in serving New York’s mid-sized companies. In the pre-digital era foot power and personal relationships differentiated the bank from others. They also had close ties to baseball; if I remember correctly, Tom Seaver appeared in ads for them. Time for a party to celebrate one of the greatest days in Brooklyn history. It should have come as no surprise that the marketing group at the bank, then headed by Andy Parton who now runs the Cradle of Aviation Museum in Long Island, helped come up with the most memorable event possible. They brought together dozens of former New York City big leaguers from the Giants, Dodgers, and Yankees of that era. Names that the mostly male business owners who attended the event had grown up rooting for and were excited to meet. When I read of Whitey Ford’s death last week, I was sure he had attended that dinner. Even more, I thought I had gotten his name on the baseball that the bank gave to each attendee as they signed in.

  • The Newsletter of the Atlanta 400 Baseball Fan Club February 2021
    The Newsletter of the Atlanta 400 Baseball Fan Club ________________________________________________________________________________ February 2021 By Dave Badertscher The 400 Fan Club was able to keep its consecutive Gameboree streak alive by hosting the 55th annual gala as a free virtual event on Zoom on Wednesday evening, January 20. This year’s theme was appropriately “2020: A Season Like No Other.” Due to COVID considerations our traditional cocktail reception, silent auction, raffle, and dinner were not offered. Food and beverages were on you own at home. Approximately 80 attendees and special guests participated in the session. After this enthusiastic, 90-minute celebration of Braves baseball, we could definitely lay claim to hosting the best virtual Eddie Glennon Gameboree ever. Emcee Wayne Coleman opened the Gameboree by introducing the evening’s producer, Harlow Lisak, and Fan Club President Howard Evans. Howard welcomed the attendees and talked about the work of the Club’s Board of Directors, much of which had to be done virtually in 2020. The Board is planning activities for 2021, which will include more monthly Zoom meetings, pre-game socials at Truist Park, a Major League trip to Denver during Labor Day Weekend and, pandemic permitting, minor league trips to Gwinnett and Rome and hopefully to the Braves new affiliate, the Augusta Green Jackets. For more details on the Club’s activities and the evening’s agenda, Howard referred folks to the Deluxe Gameboree Souvenir Program, which can be accessed by clicking here. Before starting the program, Wayne began with remembrances for the loss of two of the Fan Club’s biggest supporters—Bill Bartholomay on March 25, Phil Niekro on December 26—as well as Braves trainer Dave Pursley on October 21 and announcer Don Sutton, who passed away the day before the Gameboree.

My forte is identifying ballplayers in old photos, and my special interest is the Dead Ball Era. Team president Donald Grant approved the deal, but he wanted to hold off announcing it until he explained the transaction to the team owner, Lorinda de Roulet. Trout finished second in MVP voting. What came next was one of the most amazing seasons any reliever has ever had. Oakland converted a pretty good starter into a dominant Hall of Fame closer. The experience of the Toronto Blue Jays would suggest an approach closer to the former than the latter, though taking place in a National League East Division that has been an easier nut to crack than the American League East.
