  • 2012 Hockey Conference Program
    Putting it on Ice III: Constructing the Hockey Family Abstracts Carly Adams & Hart Cantelon University of Lethbridge Sustaining Community through High Performance Women’s Hockey in Warner, Alberta Canada is becoming increasingly urbanized with small rural communities subject to amalgamation or threatened by decline. Statistics Canada data indicate that by 1931, for the first time in Canadian history, more citizens (54%) lived in urban centre than rural communities. By 2006, this percentage had reached 80%. This demographic shift has serious ramifications for small rural communities struggling to survive. For Warner, a Southern Alberta agricultural- based community of approximately 380 persons, a unique strategy was adopted to imagine a sense of community and to allow its residents the choice to remain ‘in place’ (Epp and Whitson, 2006). Located 65 km south of Lethbridge, the rural village was threatened with the potential closure of the consolidated Kindergarten to Grade 12 school (ages 5-17). In an attempt to save the school and by extension the town, the Warner School and the Horizon School Division devised and implemented the Warner Hockey School program to attract new students to the school and the community. By 2003, the Warner vision of an imagined community (Anderson, 1983) came to include images of high performance female hockey, with its players as visible celebrities at the rink, school, and on main street. The purpose of this paper is to explore the social conditions in rural Alberta that led to and influenced the community of Warner to take action to ensure the survival of their local school and town.

    1 The Prague Spring It was much more than ice hockey, of course. It was a replay of a lost war. It started with an uprising, but it ended with a hockey game. Around 4:30 on the morning of August 21, 1968, a black Volga limousine, its bulbous, large headlights leading the way, sped from the Soviet embassy in Prague toward Czech Communist Party headquarters. Over the years, the black Volga limousine had become mythologized throughout Eastern Europe as the vehicle commonly involved in the abduction of citizens. In the early morning, thisCOPYRIGHTED particular Volga was trailed MATERIAL by a convoy of Soviet tanks. When the convoy arrived at Communist Party headquarters, operations forces sealed the premises and cut off all phone con- tact with the outside world. With that done, a group of Soviet troops armed with machine guns entered the offi ce of Alexander Dubcek, who just six months earlier had been selected as fi rst secretary of the Communist Party of Czechoslovakia. CC01.indd01.indd 1 33/27/12/27/12 112:032:03 PPMM 2 Breakaway Although a Soviet colonel had initially entered the offi ce, where Dubcek was meeting with members of his cabinet, it was two plainclothes offi cers—one old, one young—sporting tweed jackets and open-neck shirts who initiated the dialogue as soldiers stood by the door, machine guns in tow. “Comrade Dubcek,” they respectfully addressed him. “You are to come with us straight away.” “Who are you, what do you want?” Dubcek replied. By the time Dubcek and his colleagues were placed under arrest and escorted by KGB agents to a barracks in the Carpathian Mountains in what is now Ukraine, Operation Danube had over- taken Czechoslovakia.

Crawford, Student Date Approvals: Dr. David Simonelli, Thesis Advisor Date Dr. Donna DeBlasio, Committee Member Date Dr. Thomas Leary, Committee Member Date Dr. Salvatore A. Sanders, Dean of Graduate Studies Date ABSTRACT This thesis aims to provide historical context for the Sports Broadcasting Act of 1961 which allowed professional sports teams to collectively negotiate television contracts and equally share in the revenues. According to Immanuel Wallerstein, the state crafting legislation to allow an anticompetitive business practice is an example of a basic contradiction of capitalism being reconciled. Researching the development of the SBA unveils two historically significant narratives. The first is the fact that antitrust legislator Emanuel Celler crafted the act with the intent of providing the National Football League competition although the act unintentionally aided the formation of a professional football monopoly. The other is that the act legalized a collectivist business practice in a time of anticommunist fervor and was written by a legislator with well-documented anticommunist credentials.
