University of New Mexico Press 800.249.7737 • unmpress.com One Nation One Year a navajo photographer’s 365-day journey into a world of discovery, life and hope Photographs by Don James with text by Karyth Becenti 128 pages 213 illustrations; 14 x 10 ISBN 978-1-890689-99-5 ($24.99) (Trade paper) 2010 Best New Mexico Book, New Mexico Book Awards “One Nation, One Year” is a photographic journey that tran- scends borders, languages, distance, time, and cultural barriers. For one year, Navajo photographer Don James drove from one side of the Navajo Nation to the other documenting arts, tradi- tions, sports, and people. He travelled by dirt road, horseback, on foot—even as a hitchhiker— for more than 10,000 miles and took over 105,000 photographs. The Navajo Nation and its people have been extensively photographed over the last centu- ry, but never from the eye of one of its own. Because he’s native, and knows the land and people, James embarks on a journey to show the world a different view of his culture, through his eyes and his Nikon lens. His understanding of the Navajo gives us a glimpse at a people previously off-limits to outsiders. Edited by Navajo writer Karyth Becenti, the narrative that accompanies the images are succinct and enlightening, offering the viewer the chance to at once see the Navajo people and feel a small piece of their lives.

    A Summer Wildfire: How the Greatest Debut in Baseball History Peaked and Dwindled Over the Course of Three Months

    The Report committee for Colin Thomas Reynolds Certifies that this is the approved version of the following report: A Summer Wildfire: How the greatest debut in baseball history peaked and dwindled over the course of three months APPROVED BY SUPERVISING COMMITTEE: Co-Supervisor: ______________________________________ Tracy Dahlby Co-Supervisor: ______________________________________ Bill Minutaglio ______________________________________ Dave Sheinin A Summer Wildfire: How the greatest debut in baseball history peaked and dwindled over the course of three months by Colin Thomas Reynolds, B.A. Report Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of the University of Texas at Austin in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts The University of Texas at Austin May, 2011 To my parents, Lyn & Terry, without whom, none of this would be possible. Thank you. A Summer Wildfire: How the greatest debut in baseball history peaked and dwindled over the course of three months by Colin Thomas Reynolds, M.A. The University of Texas at Austin, 2011 SUPERVISORS: Tracy Dahlby & Bill Minutaglio The narrative itself is an ageless one, a fundamental Shakespearean tragedy in its progression. A young man is deemed invaluable and exalted by the public. The hero is cast into the spotlight and bestowed with insurmountable expectations. But the acclamations and pressures are burdensome and the invented savior fails to fulfill the prospects once imagined by the public. He is cast aside, disregarded as a symbol of failure or one deserving of pity. It’s the quintessential tragedy of a fallen hero. The protagonist of this report is Washington Nationals pitcher Stephen Strasburg, who enjoyed a phenomenal rookie season before it ended abruptly due to a severe elbow injury.

I lusted after the various sports games advertised in the magazines until my mom finally relented and bought Strat-O-Matic Football for me in 1972. I got SOM’s baseball game a year later and I was hooked. I would get the new card set each year and attempt to play the in-progress season by moving the traded players around and turning ‘nameless player cards” into that year’s key rookies. I switched to APBA in the late ‘70’s because they started releasing some complete old season sets and the idea of playing with those really caught my fancy. Between then and the mid-nineties, I collected a lot of card sets.

    July 15, 2007 Hall of Fame Committee Members Orlin Pederson-Chairman, Joe DeBaker-Secretary, Steve Conradt, Tom Kristof, Pete Kucksdorf, Rick Otto and Roger Peterson, Sr. Leopolis Baseball Hall of Fame Frank Klement July 15, 2007 Frank Klement Born August 19, 1908, Frank Klement was the second of five sons and three daughters born to Jacob and Barb Klement. The Klements farmed where Rita and Carol Kristof now reside. Frank went to school in Leopolis and later went on to teacher’s college. After graduating he came back to Leopolis to teach and became the principal at Leopolis. As far as records go, it is believed Frank started his baseball career in 1928. Records also indicate the cost of admission to a game that year was also raised to 55 cents. That was later reduced to 25 cents in 1931 due to the depression. Hall of Famer Alex “War Horse” Sousek acknowledged Frank was the best shortstop the team had in this era of Leopolis baseball history. Alex stated, “Frank had an excellent range of coverage and could easily get a ball behind third base and throw out the runner with his strong arm.” Frank’s career spanned at least eleven years. The last records do not show him playing past 1938, but what a career and what a team. During that time, Leopolis won championships in 1929, 1930, 1931, 1933 and 1937. Records (although scarce) on batting averages show Frank finished the 1938 season with a .429 batting average. It is believed his career average hovered around the .400 mark.
