The football season for igc8 opened with the brightest prospects for a winning team for Washington seen in many years. Much talk was indulged in before the season started, and for several reasons:— A new chancellor, and one rumored to be friendly towards ath- letics, had been appointed. A new coach had been procured. And one of the hardest schedules ever attempted by a Washington team stood forth as a brilliant possibility. Many expected wonders to happen—expected a team that would roll up massive scores in every game—they, of course, were dis- appointed, while others expecting a repetition of the previous year's failures were gloriously disappointed. The team was light, exceptionally so. Averaging, as it did, only 152 pounds, it was without doubt the lightest team that ever represented Washington on the gridiron; and in all probability it was the lightest team that ever represented any University of the standing of W. U. What was wanting in weight, however, was made up in speed, en- thusiasm and fighting spirit—components of the team that seemed en- tirely lacking in 1907. Practice this year started about a week before the opening of the University, but inasmuch as this was something new only a few re- ported to the coach until after matriculation day. Another innovation this season was the night practice held on the field illuminated by arc lamps. The bright prospects of the first few days were somewhat darkened by the announcement that Nipher, Schiller and Howe, all of whom had shown up exceptionally well in practice, were ineligible to play. This left Coach Cayou with but one backfield with which to go through the entire season. The first game of the season, a practice affair against Battery A, finished with Washington the winner, 5-0. The following Saturday Washington and Carleton College battled a scoreless game. Shurtleff came next, but the Myrtle and Maroon boys had struck their stride and Shurtleff was handed a 26-6 drubbing. Knox College, a sort of dark horse, was next to call. Although outweighing Wash- ington some 10 pounds per man, they were forced to swallow a n-6 defeat. The trip to Kansas followed. The team had a rousing send- off, but soon ran into a blizzard of seven days' duration. The condi- tions at Lawrence were almost impossible. The field was covered with from seven to twelve inches of snow, ice and water. With her ad- vantage in weight of 20 pounds per man, Kansas was able to push her 144 ■■ ■ V ' BHHHOMHHSHHE V ■ way through the slush for two touchdowns. With the men chilled to the bone, some of them unable to walk, the game was called at the end of the first half. Score io-o. Rose Poly Technic, still glorying in their defeat of Wabash, came next. Again outweighed 12 pounds to the man, Cayou's braves played Rose to a standstill in one of the prettiest games of the season. With the score 6-5 against them at the opening of the second half, Washing- ton simply overwhelmed the Terre Haute boys and won out, 11-6. The Milliken game, which followed, was slow, but Washington had no trouble in winning 16-0. Next came the Missouri at Columbia. Once more the team ran into a snow storm. Hopelessly outweighed 28 pounds per man, the Myrtle and Maroon team faced the best team that has ever represented the State University. With both quarter backs dis- abled in the first half, Washington was forced to play only defensive football. Washington was outweighed but not outgamed, and the score 40-0 gives no idea of the fierceness of the struggle. The next Saturday Vanderbilt U. came to St. Louis, and that game, played under ideal weather conditions and before the largest crowd that ever witnessed a Washington team play on its own grounds was pro- nounced by all to be one of the prettiest and most spirited games ever staged in St. Louis. The Commodores started with a rush and regis- tered 23 points before Washington got over its stage fright and settled down. The second half the W. U. boys played the Southerners to the finish and held them to the final score 28-0. The long trip to New Orleans followed. Instead of the usual snow storm the team ran into sweltering weather. The thermometer on the day of the Tulane U. game registered 90 degrees. Again Washington was greatly outweighed and Tulane with the aid of the terrible heat got away with the game 11-0. Of the individual players Capt. Beck at tackle played a steady and hard game—he enjoys the enviable record of having played in every game Washington played during his entire four years as a student. Rodenberg at the other tackle position was the star of the season. These two men will leave holes in the line that will be hard to fill. At ends Elliott, Jacobs, Maddox, Hagler and Castlen all played good, consistent football. The guards, Luckey, Harting, Glasgow and Perrings, all made good. They should all improve greatly next year. Hagin at center was the 'find" of the year. He will have a great year next season. At quarter Ailworth also played his last year. His playing, with few ex- ceptions, was excellent, especially his punts, not one being blocked dur- ing the entire season. Goldsmith, the other quarter, also ran the team in fine style. Morton at half was one of the best ground gainers on the team. He should make a star in 1909. Bouton at fullback was one of the hardest workers on the team and he, with Menges, who showed great promise in 1908, should make good with a vengeance in 1909. 145 Merrill Smith and Pitzman both played exceptionally good football but unfortunately both were forced to give up the game on account of the pressure of their studies. Grace was injured in the second game, and Washington was thus deprived of a valuable man. Last but not least halfback Dorsey Hager, captain-elect for 1909, proved himself to be one of the greatest players in this section. Although weighing only 128 pounds, he could always be relied upon. His playing in the Milliken and Tulane games was sensational. He should make an exceptionally good captain. The one, however, to whom most credit for Washington's success is due is Coach Francis Cayou. In him W. U. has at last got a real coach. He instilled into the men that fighting spirit and enthusiasm which more than offset their shortcomings in the matter of avoirdupois. Taking a practically green squad, he developed one of the best teams that has ever represented the University. With the remainder of this year's squad and a crack Freshman team to pick from, and with Cayou as coach, I see nothing but success for the season of 1909. W. C. HENGER.

Fairfax Ave. Los Angeles, CA 90046 phone (323) 845-1455 fax (323) 845-4717 [email protected] www.7thart.com SYNOPSIS JEWS AND BASEBALL: AN AMERICAN LOVE STORY brings to life the contributions of Jewish major leaguers and explores the special meaning that baseball has had in the lives of American Jews. More than a film about sports, it is a story of immigration, assimilation, bigotry, heroism, the passing on of traditions, and the shattering of stereotypes. We meet Andy Cohen, a diminutive second baseman brought to the New York Giants to attract Jewish fans; the powerful slugger Hank Greenberg, who transformed the nation‚Äôs perception of Jews; the enigmatic catcher and WWII spy Moe Berg; the fiercely proud all-star third baseman Al Rosen; Sandy Koufax, the greatest left-handed pitcher in the history of baseball and a hero to generations of Jews for not pitching on Yom Kippur; players‚Äô union leader Marvin Miller, who profoundly changed the economics of baseball; and modern-day stars like Shawn Green and Kevin Youkilis, who many fans do not even know are Jews and may be the best evidence of how fully Jews have assimilated into the American mainstream. An articulate and passionate group of interviewees includes former ballplayers Yogi Berra, Ron Blomberg, Bob Feller, Shawn Green, Sandy Koufax (who consented to a rare interview), Elliott Maddox, Al Rosen, Marv Rotblatt, and Kevin Youkilis, as well as executives, writers, and especially fans, including filmmaker Ron Howard, author Roger Kahn, and journalist Larry King. Their stories will be intercut with dramatic and never- before-seen film clips and photos of great Jewish players, unforgettable games, and the broad sweep of American history during the past century.

  • Gene Locklear Artist
    Gene locklear artist Continue Citation: Lockliar, James. The former professional baseball player swings his soul into painting. Fayetteville Observer Friday, July 6, 2001. Abstract: Gene Locklear, who was born in Mount Airy (northwest of Pembroke), was the first Lumbee to play major league baseball. He began his professional baseball career in 1969 when he signed with the Cincinnati Reds as a free agent. In 1973, he was traded to the San Diego Padres and in 1977 to the New York Yankees. After the 1977 season, he left the Yankees and played in Japan. He retired from baseball in 1979. His career highlights include batting titles for minor leagues in 1971 and 1972; Hitting four home runs in one game; and his best season in 1975 (he hit .321 with the Padres and was the pinch-hitter of the National League hit). Lowry has loved art since high school. After retiring from baseball, he used the money he saved to develop an artistic career. Now living in California, he draws sports personalities and themes; many of his works have been commissioned. He works on display at the White House and Baseball Hall of Fame. He was the official artist of the 1998 Super Cup and is now the official artist of the Arena Football League. He drew baseball Hall of Fame player Ted Williams, golfer Phil Mickelson, and weightlifter Harold Major Iron Bear Collins. He also draws Native American themes; his work was often auctioned off at the annual Strike at the Wind!fundraiser.
