This report offers an opportunity to view youth sports through several lenses including race, gender, age, ability, facility type, type of participation and family income.

There is no better word to describe the manner in which the Games were organized and delivered by my board colleague, Peter V. Ueberroth, his management team, staff and thousands of volunteers.

  • Transnational Sports and Identities in Southern California and Mexico, 1930–1945
    Playing Across Borders: Transnational Sports and Identities in Southern California and Mexico, 1930–1945 JOSÉ M. ALAMILLO The author is a member of the Chicana/o studies program at California State University, Channel Islands. This article examines the local and transnational dimensions of sports in Southern California through the activities of the Mexican Athletic Association of South- ern California (MAASC) from the Great Depression to the end of World War II. This amateur athletic organization promoted sports in the barrios and colonias throughout Southern California and forged transnational ties with the Mexican government and its sports federation. MAASC and its related activities reflected two competing historical trajectories that have been subjects of debate in Chicano historiography. MAASC sports simultaneously reinvigorated transnational ties with Mexico that emphasized a México de afuera identity and contributed to the making of a Mexican American identity that connected immigrants to Southern California and American society in general. Ultimately, both impulses helped to instill a new political confidence among MAASC members to challenge the Los Angeles Department of Playground and Recreation’s paternalistic approach toward the Mexican community. José Arteaga was born in Baja California, Mexico, moved to Los Angeles during his teen years, and in 1921 teamed up with Lamberto Alvarez Gayou to form the first all-Mexican basket- ball team, “Bohemia.” Gayou eventually became the president of Mexico’s first sports federation, and Arteaga became a basketball player and coach in the city’s new amateur athletic association. Arteaga coached several teams, with only the best players chosen to play exhibition games in Mexico.

LAURIE MERCIER, Ph.D., Chair ROBERT BAUMAN, Ph.D. JEFFREY SANDERS, Ph.D. LUZ MARIA GORDILLO, Ph.D. ii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS This dissertation has been many years in the making. It all began in 2004 at Pacific Lutheran University in Tacoma, Washington. Chandra Manning, Gina Hames, Carlton Benson, and Beth Kraig instilled in me a desire to pursue history as a profession. I completed a second major in history during the course of one academic year, and I do not believe I could have done it that quickly without the encouragement of Chuck Nelson and David Gerry at the Office of International Student Services. Important during my time at PLU was also the support of Helen Rogers, a close friend and an experienced history major. While my interest in Norwegian Americans’ relationship with Norway and Norwegian culture began during my time at PLU, it was during my years pursuing a Master’s degree at Montana State University in Bozeman that this project began to take shape.

  • The 1932 Los Angeles Olympics
    THE 1932 LOS ANGELES OLYMPICS: A MODEL FOR A BROKEN SYSTEM By ROGER D. MOORE Bachelor of Arts in History Oklahoma State University Stillwater, OK 2012 Submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate College of the Oklahoma State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of MASTER OF ARTS May, 2015 THE 1932 LOS ANGELES OLYMPICS: A MODEL FOR A BROKEN SYSTEM Thesis Approved: Dr. Bill Bryans Thesis Adviser Dr. L.G. Moses Dr. Brian Frehner ii Name: ROGER D. MOORE Date of Degree: MAY, 2015 Title of Study: THE 1932 LOS ANGELES OLYMPICS: A MODEL FOR A BROKEN SYSTEM Major Field: HISTORY ABSTRACT: In discussion of Olympic Games and Los Angeles, 1984 is often the primary focus; but the Tenth Olympiad hosted by the same city in 1932 provides a more meaningful and lasting legacy within the Olympic narrative. This thesis looks at the stadium construction of Olympic host cities prior to 1932 and investigates the process by which Los Angeles came to host the 1932 Summer Olympics. The significance of the first athletic village and a history of the venues used for the 1932 competition will also be explored. This thesis will show that the depression-era 1932 Los Angeles Olympics provides a model more in line with original Olympic principals opposed to the current economically-driven system. Within that 1932 model is a means by which a host city can incorporate existing facilities adequate for a large festival and also, when and where construction is needed, provide future-use plans that serve a community beyond the duration of an Olympiad.
