  • Female Sportswriters of the Roaring Twenties
    The Pennsylvania State University The Graduate School College of Communications THEY ARE WOMEN, HEAR THEM ROAR: FEMALE SPORTSWRITERS OF THE ROARING TWENTIES A Thesis in Mass Communications by David Kaszuba © 2003 David Kaszuba Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy December 2003 The thesis of David Kaszuba was reviewed and approved* by the following: Ford Risley Associate Professor of Communications Thesis Adviser Chair of Committee Patrick R. Parsons Associate Professor of Communications Russell Frank Assistant Professor of Communications Adam W. Rome Associate Professor of History John S. Nichols Professor of Communications Associate Dean for Graduate Studies in Mass Communications *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School ABSTRACT Contrary to the impression conveyed by many scholars and members of the popular press, women’s participation in the field of sports journalism is not a new or relatively recent phenomenon. Rather, the widespread emergence of female sports reporters can be traced to the 1920s, when gender-based notions about employment and physicality changed substantially. Those changes, together with a growing leisure class that demanded expanded newspaper coverage of athletic heroes, allowed as many as thirty-five female journalists to make inroads as sports reporters at major metropolitan newspapers during the 1920s. Among these reporters were the New York Herald Tribune’s Margaret Goss, one of several newspaperwomen whose writing focused on female athletes; the Minneapolis Tribune’s Lorena Hickok, whose coverage of a male sports team distinguished her from virtually all of her female sports writing peers; and the New York Telegram’s Jane Dixon, whose reports on boxing and other sports from a so-called “woman’s angle” were representative of the way most women cracked the male-dominated field of sports journalism.

  • Damon Runyon Program
    Damon Runyon Biography By Jeffrey Couchman Damon Runyon was a man of many lives—notably a journalist, a fiction writer, and a bona fide New York character. He was born Alfred Damon Runyan in 1880. A newspaper printer accidentally changed the spelling to Runyon in 1900, and several years later an editor on the New York American chose to delete “Alfred,” creating the byline Damon Runyon, which would become famous the world over. Runyon started life in Manhattan, Kansas, and grew up in Pueblo, Colorado, when the West could still be considered wild. According to family legend, Runyon carried a six-gun in his youth, and there is no reason to disbelieve the story. Runyon’s mother died when he was eight years old, and for the next few years he wandered the steel town of Pueblo, playing hooky, smoking cigarettes, and drinking whiskey. (He would swear off drink around 1910, though he replaced alcohol with coffee, drinking some forty cups—by some accounts, sixty cups— a day.) He also, however, spent time reading in libraries and learned the newspaper business from his father, Alfred Sr., who was a typesetter and partner in a string of Western papers. The Pueblo Chieftain published a poem by the eleven-year-old Alfie Runyan, and a year later the boy was working as a reporter on the Pueblo Evening Press. When the Spanish-American War broke out in 1898, Runyon was not old enough to join the army, but the determined young man, not quite eighteen, found his way to San Francisco and wangled his way into a contingent of Minnesota volunteers, who were shipped out to fight insurrection in the Philippines.

  • DEADBALL ERA WORLD SERIES BOOK PUBLISHED Long Awaited, SABR’S the World Series in the Deadball Era Has Recently Been Released
    DEADBALL ERA WORLD SERIES BOOK PUBLISHED Long awaited, SABR’s The World Series in the Deadball Era has recently been released. And examination of its content reveals that the book was well worth the wait. Edited by accomplished DEC member Steve Steinberg, the work’s subtitle succinctly states: “A history in the words and pictures of the writers and photographers” who chronicled the early Fall Classics. Yet that matter-of- fact description does inadequate justice to this imaginatively conceived, meticulously researched, and handsomely illustrated volume. The book, in a word, is superb. The text begins with a Foreword by distinguished baseball historian and Larry Ritter Award winner Charles C. Alexander, followed by a brief Preface and Acknowledgement by editor Steinberg that recognizes the SABR members who contributed their talents and/or financial backing to the project. The work then proceeds to in-depth consideration of the World Series played from 1903 through 1919, with a chapter devoted to each championship match (as well as to 1904 when the NL pennant- winning New York Giants refused to meet the AL champion Boston Americans.). Unlike other World Series retrospectives, The World Series in the Deadball Era does not provide a modern take on bygone events. Rather, the author(s) assigned to individual Series transport the reader back in time, allowing him or her to experience the Series as it unfolded, game-by-game, to baseball fans back in the day. The chapters accomplish this by combining a broad spectrum of contemporaneous reportage, including Series related observations by such now-legendary sportswriters as Tim Murnane, Hugh Fullerton, Grantland Rice, and Damon Runyon, with finely reproduced photographs of Series participants, game action, and ballpark scenes.
