ROY STOCKTON PRING TRAINING serves many purposes for the great American S game and business of baseball. The primary objective, of course, is to get the players into the best possible physical condi- tion for the arduous, 154-game pennant races during which the championships of the two major leagues are decided. During this conditioning process young players and others who may have been obtained in trades are inspected and tested in practice sessions, squad games, and exhibition contests. During the off-season each major league club is permitted to carry a maximum of 40 players on its roster. There are modifica- tions to this rule. For instance, returning service men may be carried for a specific period without counting as members of the 40-man squad.

  • History of Barbershop
    HISTORY OF BARBERSHOP By David Krause and David Wright Definition of barbershop harmony. Read: Definition of Barbershop Harmony, from the Forward of the Contest and Judging Handbook. The Purpose Of This Course. We will attempt to trace the roots and the evolution of barbershop harmony from well before its actual beginnings up to the present. We will try to answer these questions: What were the tides of history which spawned the birth of the barbershop quartet, and what environment allowed this style of music to flourish? What were its musical forerunners? What are its defining characteristics? What other types of music were fostered contemporaneously, and how did they influence the growth of quartet singing? Which styles are similar, and how are they similar? How did the term "barbershop" arise? How long did the historical era of the barbershop quartet last? What other kinds of music sprang forth from it? Why did the style eventually need preservation? How was SPEBSQSA formed, and how did it become a national movement? What other organizations have joined the cause? How have they coped with the task of preservation? Are current day efforts still on course in preserving the style? How has the style changed since the Society was formed? We will spend the next few hours contemplating and attempting to answer these questions. Overtones. As barbershoppers, we are very conscious of the "ringing" effect which complements our singing. We consider it our reward for singing well- defined pitches in tune. The fact that a tone produced by a voice or an instrument is accompanied by a whole series of pitches in addition to the fundamental one which our ear most easily detects has been known for centuries.

Every year we gather in April at NYTB’s Awards Banquet to celebrate the racetrack achieve- ments of the New York Thoroughbred Breeding and Racing Program from the previous year. Our video program will showcase all the 2018 equine nominees as we crown the 2018 New York-bred divisional champions one-by-one and finally announce the New York-bred Horse of the Year. At 12 racetracks from coast to coast and beyond, New York-breds combined to win 106 stakes races – 80 on dirt and 26 on turf – worth $19.5 million in 2018.
