  • Rigging Lark 2252
    Rigging Lark 2252 Introduction This booklet was inspired by reading the Wayfarer guide to rigging and racing. The wayfarer guide includes a lot more information than just rigging and is worth a read even if you sail a different class. This guide describes how Lark 2252 is rigged and will hopefully help those new to Lark sailing that has an older boat. It is not the definitive way to rig and some things might change as I gain more experience sailing this exciting and rewarding class. If you have one of the Rondar Larks or are thinking about setting up the control lines and rigging from scratch then consult the rigging guide written by Simon Cox and available from the class website. Lark 2252 was built by Parkers in 1989. Although it is a MK2 much of the rigging is similar to the MK1s. I believe in keeping things as simple as possible and only having adjustable controls you actually adjust on the water. However, if you need to adjust controls they need to be easy to use and fall to hand. While the latest shiny gadgets and brand new sails may look nice, if your basic boat handling and tactics are poor you’ll still sail slowly whatever you spend. After all, what good are those £800 new sails if you’re always in someone’s dirty wind! Finally, join the class association, everyone is very friendly and helpful and you’ll be doing your bit to keep the class alive. Garry Packer 10th July 2004. Hull Make sure your hull is smooth; fill the worst imperfections with gel coat filler or epoxy and microballons and sand wet with 600 – 1200 paper.

    Barker, Parker, Rondar, Ovington Buying a Lark Over the 40 years Larks have been in production over 2500 hulls have been made. Some of which are owned and raced regularly, however many are sitting in dinghy parks or garages providing a safe habitat for an abun- dance of wildlife. The materials used and build quality of the Lark means that virtually all of these hulls could be restored with minimum expense and therefore offer an excellent opportunity for sailors on a budget. This means you can buy a Lark second hand from as little as £50, they regularly come up on sites like E-bay, Apollo Duck and in Yachts and Yachting and Dinghy Sailing Magazine as well as on the lark web-site www.larkclass.org .

  • Downtrodden Yet Determined: Exploring the History Of
    DOWNTRODDEN YET DETERMINED: EXPLORING THE HISTORY OF BLACK MALES IN PROFESSIONAL BASKETBALL AND HOW THE PLAYERS ASSOCIATION ADDRESSES THEIR WELFARE A Dissertation by JUSTIN RYAN GARNER Submitted to the Office of Graduate and Professional Studies of Texas A&M University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Chair of Committee, John N. Singer Committee Members, Natasha Brison Paul J. Batista Tommy J. Curry Head of Department, Melinda Sheffield-Moore May 2019 Major Subject: Kinesiology Copyright 2019 Justin R. Garner ABSTRACT Professional athletes are paid for their labor and it is often believed they have a weaker argument of exploitation. However, labor disputes in professional sports suggest athletes do not always receive fair compensation for their contributions to league and team success. Any professional athlete, regardless of their race, may claim to endure unjust wages relative to their fellow athlete peers, yet Black professional athletes’ history of exploitation inspires greater concerns. The purpose of this study was twofold: 1) to explore and trace the historical development of basketball in the United States (US) and the critical role Black males played in its growth and commercial development, and 2) to illuminate the perspectives and experiences of Black male professional basketball players concerning the role the National Basketball Players Association (NBPA) and National Basketball Retired Players Association (NBRPA), collectively considered as the Players Association for this study, played in their welfare and addressing issues of exploitation. While drawing from the conceptual framework of anti-colonial thought, an exploratory case study was employed in which in-depth interviews were conducted with a list of Black male professional basketball players who are members of the Players Association.

    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 2, Annual (1980) Latrobe LATROBE, PA.: CRADLE OF PRO FOOTBALL By Robert B. Van Atta John Kinport Brallier, who was to become nationally acknowledged as one of the first professional football players, was born at Cherry Tree, Pa., north of Indiana, Pa., Dec. 27, 1876, the son of Dr. Emanuel Brallier, a physician, and his wife, Lucy M. Kinport Brallier. His grandparents were from Alsace-Lorraine in Europe, accounting for the French-sounding name. As a boy, Brallier remembered having worked in a glass factory. His first recollection of football was in 1890, at the age of 13, when he played for the West Indiana Public School team. By 1892, he was captain and right halfback on the high school team as a sophomore, just before his 16th birthday. The year of 1893 saw the youthful athlete, while still attending the public high school, also “matriculating at Indiana Normal so I could play on the team.” The team won three of four games played that year, and among Brallier’s teammates was left guard Alex Stewart, future father of movie star Jimmy Stewart. Brallier quarterbacked the Normal team in both 1893 and 1894. His second year on the team found it winning only two of five games, but against much tougher opposition provided by college teams and teams of former college players. The fourth game that year was a 28-0 loss to Washington and Jefferson, but Brallier’s outstanding play was to have a major effect on his future. E. Gard Edwards, coach of the Wash-Jeff team, wrote from Pittsburgh to John Brallier, Dec.
