  • Glenn Killinger, Service Football, and the Birth
    The Pennsylvania State University The Graduate School School of Humanities WAR SEASONS: GLENN KILLINGER, SERVICE FOOTBALL, AND THE BIRTH OF THE AMERICAN HERO IN POSTWAR AMERICAN CULTURE A Dissertation in American Studies by Todd M. Mealy © 2018 Todd M. Mealy Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy May 2018 ii This dissertation of Todd M. Mealy was reviewed and approved by the following: Charles P. Kupfer Associate Professor of American Studies Dissertation Adviser Chair of Committee Simon Bronner Distinguished Professor Emeritus of American Studies and Folklore Raffy Luquis Associate Professor of Health Education, Behavioral Science and Educaiton Program Peter Kareithi Special Member, Associate Professor of Communications, The Pennsylvania State University John Haddad Professor of American Studies and Chair, American Studies Program *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School iii ABSTRACT This dissertation examines Glenn Killinger’s career as a three-sport star at Penn State. The thrills and fascinations of his athletic exploits were chronicled by the mass media beginning in 1917 through the 1920s in a way that addressed the central themes of the mythic Great American Novel. Killinger’s personal and public life matched the cultural medley that defined the nation in the first quarter of the twentieth-century. His life plays outs as if it were a Horatio Alger novel, as the anxieties over turn-of-the- century immigration and urbanization, the uncertainty of commercializing formerly amateur sports, social unrest that challenged the status quo, and the resiliency of the individual confronting challenges of World War I, sport, and social alienation.

  • Of Kappa Kappa Gamma Winter 1970
    OF KAPPA KAPPA GAMMA WINTER 1970 Philanthropy: The sy10hol of friendship "A child's kiss Set on thy sighing lips shall make thee glad; A poor man served by thee shall make thee rich; A sick man helped by thee shall make thee strong; Thou shalt be served thyself by every sense Of service which thou renderest." In these lines from "A Drama of Exile" by Elizabeth Barrett Browning, a significant portion of the myriad of benefits experienced by those involved in philanthropic work is poetically expressed. The personal satisfaction derived from helping those less fortunate is undeniable. Yet, there is more to consider when one asks herself why she participates. A philanthropy is a program of mutual enlightenment between the volunteer and the receiver. By exposing others to facets of the environment not readily available to them, one becomes aware and appreciative of different lifestyles. Understanding the tragedies of other peoples' lives makes a Kappa a more sympathetic and a broader person, thus furthering Kappa's ideals. For those who feel a personal responsibility to service, a philanthropy offers the opportunity to assist directly a person in need. The widespread demand for social change among many students is reflected in increased philanthropic activity. There are many ways one may serve in her community. The choice of a philanthropy is com­ pletely arbitrary. One could paint or join an environmental group or participate in varied projects which go beyond the university environment. Idealistically, everybody should experience motives for active community work. Yet, despite chapter involvement, many girls have chosen to focus on traditional educa­ tional channels for their academic experience.

  • THE WALTER STANLEY CAMPBELL COLLECTION Inventory and Index
    THE WALTER STANLEY CAMPBELL COLLECTION Inventory and Index Revised and edited by Kristina L. Southwell Associates of the Western History Collections Norman, Oklahoma 2001 Boxes 104 through 121 of this collection are available online at the University of Oklahoma Libraries website. THE COVER Michelle Corona-Allen of the University of Oklahoma Communication Services designed the cover of this book. The three photographs feature images closely associated with Walter Stanley Campbell and his research on Native American history and culture. From left to right, the first photograph shows a ledger drawing by Sioux chief White Bull that depicts him capturing two horses from a camp in 1876. The second image is of Walter Stanley Campbell talking with White Bull in the early 1930s. Campbell’s oral interviews of prominent Indians during 1928-1932 formed the basis of some of his most respected books on Indian history. The third photograph is of another White Bull ledger drawing in which he is shown taking horses from General Terry’s advancing column at the Little Big Horn River, Montana, 1876. Of this act, White Bull stated, “This made my name known, taken from those coming below, soldiers and Crows were camped there.” Available from University of Oklahoma Western History Collections 630 Parrington Oval, Room 452 Norman, Oklahoma 73019 No state-appropriated funds were used to publish this guide.

W^e live in a constantly changing society and a changing world and Gamma Phi Beta has changed witli it. Our undeigraduate members think these changes have come about too slowly, alumnas think too quickly! But changes have been made and will continue to be made to keep our organization in tune with the times. Changes made too quickly are sometimes regretted and I observed this at the recent meeting of the American Association of Women's Deans and Coun selors. Two and three years ago many deans were in favor of throwing out all restrictions on alcohol, hours, places of residence and sororities if they stood in the way of the new freedom. However, at the most recent deans' meeting last March, one dean, who had always been quite anti-sorority, had this to say: "I note a trend now toward privacy, and I believe that sororities are the one place on campus where privacy is possible. In a small group, members respect each other's need for privacy." These deans have lived with open visitation and free-flowing alcohol and do not like the results in many cases. This is only one of many areas in American life where the baby has been tossed out with the bath water.

With this issue of The College Football Historian our seventh season of monthly of recalling games and accomplishments of players, teams and accomplishments. The old cliché says: It seems like yesterday…while it has been a number of ‘yesterdays’, it has been quite a ride each month finding or receiving content…then to organize it to see how and where it would be best suited on each page. A special thank you goes to each of other subscribers who receive TCFH each month…this issue will go to a record 563 men and women who share in the interest in preserving college football. One new feature for this year, will not take place until the season is in progress: under the heading of In-Season History. Many times, a coach, player or team would eclipse a mark during the season…and outside of his local area, very few people would know of it. This would be especially true of feats from non-BSD teams. This is where the membership can assist. If you hear of happenings, please send the editor an email.
