The Mass was celebrated by Father Pet~r Scanlon, a curate for many years under Father Connors, and until Father's death always in attendance at our gatherings. His sermon was a collection of reminiscences. He told of many funny things that happened at the rectory that gave us all a chuckle. He also told of Father Connors' kindness, generosity, humor, storytelling, and, above all, his priest­ liness. For the past few years, attendance at our memorial ser­ vice has been between ninety and and one hundred peo­ ple. There were one hundred and fifty at our 50th remem­ brance. I'm sure that many made a special effort to be with us, and it was great to see so many old friends.

    I ¡Qt>. 565 MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL PRINCIPAL PLAY-BY-PLAY ANNOUNCERS: THEIR OCCUPATION, BACKGROUND, AND PERSONAL LIFE Michael R. Emrick A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate School of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY June 1976 Approved by Doctoral Committee DUm,s¡ir<y »»itti». UNIVERSITY LIBRARY 11 ABSTRACT From the very early days of radio broadcasting, the descriptions of major league baseball games have been among the more popular types of programs. The relationship between the ball clubs and broadcast stations has developed through experimentation, skepticism, and eventual acceptance. The broadcasts have become financially important to the teams as well as the advertisers and stations. The central person responsible for pleasing the fans as well as satisfying the economic goals of the stations, advertisers, and teams—the principal play- by-play announcer—had not been the subject of intensive study. Contentions were made in the available literature about his objectivity, partiality, and the influence exerted on his description of the games by outside parties. To test these contentions, and to learn more about the overall atmosphere in which this focal person worked, a study was conducted of principal play-by-play announcers who broadcasted games on a day-to-day basis, covering one team for a local audience. With the assistance of some of the announcers, a survey was prepared and distributed to both announcers who were employed in the play-by-play capacity during the 1975 season and those who had been involved in the occupation in past seasons.

Chairman’s Letter Thanks to all who attended the Business of Baseball Committee’s annual meeting during the Louisville convention. Some developments from the convention: New Co-Chair. A hearty welcome to Claudia Perry, new Co-Chair of the Business of Baseball Committee. Claudia, who also co-chairs the Women in Baseball Committee, has held numerous SABR offices and is our only four-time Jeopardy champion. In real life she’s a pop music critic at the Newark Star-Ledger. Claudia can be reached at 311 York Street, Jersey City, NJ 07302, or at [email protected]. Proposed Business of Baseball Award. At our annual meeting, Don Coffin proposed that the Committee establish an annual award for excellence in research into the business of baseball. The award -- a cash prize of approximately $200, raised through sponsorship or donations -- would be given annually at the SABR convention. Don and I believe that such an award could raise the Committee’s visibility among academics and other non-SABRites researching in our field, attracting new members and encouraging non- members to send copies of their work to the Committee. Some details of Don’s proposal: • All research published or completed during the previous calendar year would be eligible. • Candidates need not be SABR members, and may be nominated by others or nominate themselves.

  • Executive Summary A. INTRODUCTION
    Executive Summary A. INTRODUCTION EPT Concord II, LLC (referred to as “EPT” or the “Applicant”) proposes to develop a master planned destination resort community (referred to as “EPT Concord Resort”) on approximately 1,538 acres of land located in the Town of Thompson (the “Project Site”), Sullivan County, New York. When complete, the EPT Concord Resort will include an 18-hole golf course, Casino Resort, harness horse racetrack, grandstand/showroom, a simulcast theatre, hotels, an Entertainment Village with cinemas and supporting retail, and RV parks. In addition, there will be a Residential Village with a mix of condos, apartments, townhouses and detached single- family homes, a community center, an innovative health care facility, and an active adult residential community. Approximately 45 percent of the Project Site will remain as open space. Upon completion, the Proposed Project will provide approximately 2,642 permanent full time equivalent jobs (FTE). The direct economic activity will generate an additional 1,229 indirect and induced jobs within Sullivan County and an additional 1,505 indirect and induced jobs within New York State. To develop the EPT Concord Resort, the Applicant has initiated several actions. First, the Applicant has petitioned the Town Board of the Town of Thompson for an amendment to the Town of Thompson Planned Resort Development (“PRD”) section of the zoning law (Town Code § 270-27.2) to enable the development of the EPT Concord Resort at the site of the former Concord Resort (“Proposed Action”). The amended zoning law will apply to the entire PRD district, which is comprised of approximately 1,735 acres.1 Second, the Applicant seeks approval from the Town Board for a new PRD Comprehensive Development Plan (“CDP”) for the approximately 1,538-acre Project Site (“Proposed Project”).

    Books: Beautiful decay in the Borscht Belt A coffee-table book provides a peek into the rundown, abandoned ruins of the Borscht Belt. December 1, 2016 Indoor Pool, Grossinger’s Catskill Resort and Hotel, Liberty, NY. Courtesy Marisa Scheinfeld What once were swimming pools for happy and relaxed vacationers are now cement gaps in the ground, some filled with debris, others turning green and damp with moss. Plastic lawn chairs where women once sat to chat and gossip are ripped and cast aside, plates that once served delectable meals have been left behind haphazardly on an empty kitchen counter, paint is peeling off buildings that once housed hundreds of guests. These are just a few of the images captured by Marisa Scheinfeld, the photographer behind the poignant photographs in The Borscht Belt: Revisiting the Remains of America’s Jewish Vacationland. In a photography book that is striking in the stark realism of its images, Scheinfeld pays tribute to the Catskill Mountains, which was known to many as the “Borscht Belt” and sometimes called the “Jewish Alps.” In the 1920s when anti-Semitism in the United States barred Jews from numerous hotels, Eastern European Jews began to flock to the Catskill Mountains to escape the summer heat of New York City. Hundreds of hotels, resorts and bungalow colonies catered to the increasing crowds of vacationers. Grossinger’s, Kutsher’s, Brown’s, Homowack and Concord were names of just a few of the hotels where vacationers came to relax and socialize, splash in the pool, boat on the lake, play racquetball and tennis.
