  • FINAL SALUTE Each Year We Note the Passing of Influential Creators, Performers, and Institutions
    FINAL SALUTE Each year we note the passing of influential creators, performers, and institutions. These passings occurred between SoonerCon 28 and the original date for SoonerCon 29. American actress and singer Peggy Lipton passed away May 11, 2019. Her best-known acting role was as undercover cop Julie Barnes on The Mod Squad, 1968-1973. She won a new generation of fans when she ran the Double R Diner as Norma Jennings, in Twin Peaks. Doris Day was a big-band singer, TV and film actress, and talk-show host. She won several awards for comedy and popularity. She was also an activist for animal welfare, lending her star power to several organizations bearing her name. She died May 13, 2019. Domestic cat Tardar Sauce was better known as the meme she unwittingly founded: Grumpy Cat. Dwarfism contributed to her scowling face, which graced ads for Friskies and General Mills Honey Nut Cheerios. The frowning feline cashed in her lives on May 14, 2019. The career of the inspired Tim Conway began in 1962 and lasted through TV, movies, voice-overs, and video games. Among his noted appearances were the goofy Dorf; four years on McHale ‘s Navy; eleven years on The Carol Burnett Show; several solo TV shows; and as Barnacle Boy, 1999-2012, on SpongeBob SquarePants. Conway took his final bow on May 14, 2019. Born in China, I.M. Pei moved to America in 1935 and in 1948 became a professional architect. He designed the John F. Kennedy Library, which took until 1979 to complete. In 1962 he was selected by OKC’s Urban Renewal Authority to redesign our downtown.

  • Ozzie Newsome Cleveland’S Own Helped Revolutionize Tight End Position
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 27, No. 4 (2005) Ozzie Newsome Cleveland’s Own Helped Revolutionize Tight End Position By Roger Gordon (Originally published in The Free Press, Canton, Ohio, Aug. 1, 1999) Ozzie Newsome has a reason, it seems, to return to Canton every nine years. In the summer of 1981, Newsome began his fourth season as the Cleveland Browns’ starting tight end as the Browns defeated the Atlanta Falcons, 24-10, in the Pro Football Hall of Fame Game. In the summer of 1990, Newsome began his final season as the Browns were blanked by the Chicago Bears, 13-0, in the HOF contest. This week, "The Wizard of Oz" will return to Canton once again. But instead of catching passes and making blocks on Pro Football Hall of Fame Field in Fawcett Stadium, the great tight end will be catching praise and making speeches right next door on the front steps of the Hall of Fame. Newsome is one of five men who will be inducted into the pro grid shrine two days before the "new" Browns tackle the Dallas Cowboys in the Hall of Fame Game, a contest that will be beamed across the country on a special edition of ABC’s Monday Night Football. Newsome was understandably excited when he first received the news of his induction. After all, he was beginning to look a lot like pro football’s version of Susan Lucci, the star of the soap opera All My Children, who went nearly two decades before finally winning a daytime Emmy Award, an honor many thought was absurdly overdue.

    INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or “target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is “ Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page{s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in die adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in “sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right .in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again — beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation.

  • The Relocation of the Cleveland Browns
    The Cultural Nexus of Sport and Business: The Relocation of the Cleveland Browns Thesis Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Andrew David Linden, B.A. Graduate Program in Education and Human Ecology The Ohio State University 2012 Thesis Committee: Dr. Melvin L. Adelman, Advisor Dr. Sarah K. Fields Copyright by Andrew David Linden 2012 Abstract On November 6, 1995, Arthur Modell announced his intention to transfer the Cleveland Browns to Baltimore after the conclusion of the season. Throughout the ensuing four months, the cities of Cleveland and Baltimore, along with Modell, National Football League (NFL) officials and politicians, battled over the future of the franchise. After legal and social conflicts, the NFL and Cleveland civic officials agreed on a deal that allowed Modell to honor his contract with Baltimore and simultaneously provided an NFL team to Cleveland to begin play in 1999. This settlement was unique because it allowed Cleveland to retain the naming rights, colors, logo, and, most significantly, the history of the Browns. This thesis illuminates the cultural nexus between sport and business. A three chapter analysis of the cultural meanings and interpretations of the Browns‘ relocation, it examines the ways in which the United States public viewed the economics of professional team sport in the United States near the turn of the twenty-first century and the complex relationship between the press, sports entrepreneurs and community. First, Cleveland Browns‘ fan letters from the weeks following Modell‘s announcement along with newspaper accounts of the ―Save Our Browns‖ campaign convey that the reaction of Cleveland‘s populace to Modell‘s announcement was tied to their antipathy toward the city‘s negative national notoriety and underscored their feelings toward the city‘s urban ii decline in the late 1990s.
