All the authors have been presented their research at academic conferences; their subjects range in historical periods from 1820s South Carolina to 21st Century France. A common issue is the press coverage of controversy and conflict. Anne Corbett Roberts examines the ethnic and religious friction in France surrounding a controversial law banning the wearing of the burqa in public. Erik Clabaugh provides a detailed reexamination of a massacre that concluded the U.S. war against the Sioux tribes. Jeffrey Clarke Rowell reveals how racism in baseball 1880s American caused the professional league to order segregation nationally, blocking African- Americans until 1947. Erika Pribanic-Smith provides a preview of a divisive issue that predisposed South Carolina against the U.S. Congress more than three decades before the Civil War. Jerri Lynn Mann shows how one editor of one newspaper can be credited with elevating Abraham Lincoln to the presidency. And Miglena Sandmeier uncovers the “liberator” of her native Bulgaria whose name had been erased from the country’s history. Anne Corbett Roberts’ award-winning essay provides valuable insight and context for the controversy in France concerning its Muslim population. Arguments in Parliament over the law to ban the wearing of the burqa in public revealed the depth and nature of the cultural and religious issues. As Ms. Roberts found through extensive research here and in France, “By establishing the act of wearing the burqa or niqab as a threat to ‘republican values’ in France, the French press “created a rhetorical situation in which the limitation of religious expression could be legally justified.” Her research paper, written while she was an M.A. student at Georgia State University, was presented in 2011 at the national AEJMC conference in St. Louis where she received the International Division’s Top Student Paper Award. After graduating, she became the Program Assistant to Educational Programs at the Carter Center, and currently is a policy analyst at the Southern Office of the Council of State Governments. Erik Clabaugh’s essay examined U.S. press coverage of a national problem in 19th Century America: conflicts with the Sioux Indians before and after the massacre in 1890 at Wounded Knee Creek. “Prior viii to, and immediately following, the massacre,” Clabaugh noted, “the Sioux were depicted as a particularly savage, yet innately intelligent, threat to white society. Such portrayals were in keeping with what Juan Gonzalez and Joseph Torres have described as a dominant “white racial narrative” that was put forward by the nation’s press and worked to reinforce racial biases, inflame group hatred, and justify discriminatory government policies as well as the country’s unrelenting westward expansion.” Clabaugh’s research, presented at the national conference of the American Journalism Historians Association in Kansas City in 2011, “calls attention to an early moment of national self-reflection and highlights the beginning of a gradual shift in the public perception of Wounded Knee that continues to this day.” He wrote the paper while an M.A. student at Georgia State University; he is now studying here for the Ph.D. in communication. Racism in 19th Century America was also the key issue in Jeffrey Rowell’s essay on the origin of segregation in professional baseball in the 1880s. His research led him to the outstanding catcher Moses Fleetwood Walker who became a professional player in 1883 when newspapers did not pay as much attention to his race. By 1887 he was one of seven talented black players. That year, white players threatened to quit “on account of the colored element” causing their league to prohibit “the employment of colored players but its clubs.” The segregation of professional baseball continued for 60 years, until 1947 when Jackie Robinson broke the color barrier. Rowell’s research was presented in 2014 at the 22nd Symposium on the 19th Century Press, Civil War and Free Expression at the University of Tennessee-Chattanooga. He is currently completing his M.A. degree at Georgia State University. Politically-charged rhetoric in the South that prefigured Southern secession is the focus of Erika Pribanic-Smith’s award-winning study of six newspapers across South Carolina in 1828. “State rights rhetoric largely consumed the southern newspapers’ pages,” she noted, “mirroring and in some cases amplifying what occurred in other political forums.” In South Carolina, newspapers “lashed out against” Congress’ Tariff of 1828 as unconstitutional, some even urging “disunion.” Dr. Pribanic-Smith’s essay, part of her Ph.D. dissertation while at the University of Alabama, won the Best Faculty Paper Award in 2012 at the Southeast Colloquium of the Association for Education in Journalism and Mass Communication in Blacksburg, Virginia. Currently, she is an assistant professor in the Department of Communication at the University of Texas at Arlington and is serving this year as President of the American Journalism ix Historians Association. Jerri Lynn Mann’s research documented “the level of influence that journalists had on political outcomes”—specifically Horace Greeley in New York and Joseph Medill in Chicago. Focusing on Medill, Mann documented how his Chicago Tribune crusaded continuously for Abraham Lincoln to win the contested Republican nomination for President in 1860 and then the Presidency. Among other methods, the Tribune printed Lincoln’s speeches verbatim. Meanwhile, Medill “corresponded with Lincoln throughout the election, offering support and advice.” Medill exemplified “how the power and influence of the media essentially manipulated politics during the 1800s.” Mann presented her research at the 2014 Southeast Colloquium of the American Journalism Historians Association at Panama City Beach, Florida.

  • Social and Cultural Functions of the Local Press in Preston, Lancashire, 1855-1900
    Reading the local paper: Social and cultural functions of the local press in Preston, Lancashire, 1855-1900 by Andrew Hobbs A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment for the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at the University of Central Lancashire November 2010 ABSTRACT This thesis demonstrates that the most popular periodical genre of the second half of the nineteenth century was the provincial newspaper. Using evidence from news rooms, libraries, the trade press and oral history, it argues that the majority of readers (particularly working-class readers) preferred the local press, because of its faster delivery of news, and because of its local and localised content. Building on the work of Law and Potter, the thesis treats the provincial press as a national network and a national system, a structure which enabled it to offer a more effective news distribution service than metropolitan papers. Taking the town of Preston, Lancashire, as a case study, this thesis provides some background to the most popular local publications of the period, and uses the diaries of Preston journalist Anthony Hewitson as a case study of the career of a local reporter, editor and proprietor. Three examples of how the local press consciously promoted local identity are discussed: Hewitson’s remoulding of the Preston Chronicle, the same paper’s changing treatment of Lancashire dialect, and coverage of professional football. These case studies demonstrate some of the local press content that could not practically be provided by metropolitan publications. The ‘reading world’ of this provincial town is reconstructed, to reveal the historical circumstances in which newspapers and the local paper in particular were read.

  • An Analysis of the American Outdoor Sport Facility: Developing an Ideal Type on the Evolution of Professional Baseball and Football Structures
    AN ANALYSIS OF THE AMERICAN OUTDOOR SPORT FACILITY: DEVELOPING AN IDEAL TYPE ON THE EVOLUTION OF PROFESSIONAL BASEBALL AND FOOTBALL STRUCTURES DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Chad S. Seifried, B.S., M.Ed. * * * * * The Ohio State University 2005 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor Donna Pastore, Advisor Professor Melvin Adelman _________________________________ Professor Janet Fink Advisor College of Education Copyright by Chad Seifried 2005 ABSTRACT The purpose of this study is to analyze the physical layout of the American baseball and football professional sport facility from 1850 to present and design an ideal-type appropriate for its evolution. Specifically, this study attempts to establish a logical expansion and adaptation of Bale’s Four-Stage Ideal-type on the Evolution of the Modern English Soccer Stadium appropriate for the history of professional baseball and football and that predicts future changes in American sport facilities. In essence, it is the author’s intention to provide a more coherent and comprehensive account of the evolving professional baseball and football sport facility and where it appears to be headed. This investigation concludes eight stages exist concerning the evolution of the professional baseball and football sport facility. Stages one through four primarily appeared before the beginning of the 20th century and existed as temporary structures which were small and cheaply built. Stages five and six materialize as the first permanent professional baseball and football facilities. Stage seven surfaces as a multi-purpose facility which attempted to accommodate both professional football and baseball equally.

The proposed action addresses NOAA’s responsibilities under the NMSA to identify, designate, and protect areas of the marine and Great Lakes environment with special national significance due to their conservation, recreational, ecological, historical, scientific, cultural, archaeological, educational, or aesthetic qualities as national marine sanctuaries. ONMS has developed five alternatives for the designation, and the DEIS evaluates the environmental consequences of each under NEPA. The DEIS also serves as a resource assessment under the NMSA, documenting present and potential uses of the areas considered in the alternatives.

If he can go to his right and hit the broad side of a barn, that'll do all his talking for him. - Big Leaguer, 1953 This reassuring voice-over, in reference to New York Giants minor league prospect Chuy Ramon Santiago Aguilar, sums up nicely a fundamental tenet of baseball ideology: race, ethnicity, and cultural heritage do not matter. All are welcome to participate in the national pastime. All will be treated equally. All that matters is how one plays the game. Such has been the promise of Amer- ica, as well, articulated in the values and aspirations of this, its national pas- time. Of course, this has not been baseball's true history, nor America's.
