VAUGHT-HEMINGWAY STADIUM 1 Vaught-Hemingway Stadium at Hollingsworth Field and Ole Miss: 100 Years in the Making by Chad S. Seifried and Milorad M. Novicevic “Whenever there is mentioned ‘Hemingway Stadium’ at Oxford, there instantly flashes within the minds of thousands of Mississippians the Ole Miss Rebels, the voices of the excited spectators cheering, the sounds of the band playing, the waving of flags, a large enthusiastic, noisy crowd of spectators; they are watching their team on the field because no game or sport offers greater glory, or greater pain than football.” - W. Eugene Morse, 1974 In August of 2011, the University of Mississippi (Ole Miss) announced the creation of a new $150 million capital campaign named “Forward Together.” Ole Miss created the campaign to help build a new basketball arena and to renovate Vaught-Hemingway Stadium at Hollingsworth Field, home to the Rebels football team since 1915. Organizers of the campaign promoted Phase 1 including the addition of thirty luxury suites and 770 club seats to the south end zone of Vaught- Hemingway Stadium. They further promised that new lighting, sound systems, and video boards would help enhance the facility for spectators while redesigned locker rooms would provide more room and safer access to the field for participants and event personnel. The completion of Phase 2 enclosed the north end zone and increased the capacity of Vaught-Hemingway to 64,038 in August 2016. The newly developed end zone plaza created “an impressive north entry point to MILORAD M. NOVICEVIC is an associate professor of management at the University of Mississippi. CHAD S.

Enthusiasm for the project also increased the Forward Together campaign goal to $222 million, shortly after a generous $25 million donation from Dr. Gerald M. “Jerry” Hollingsworth.2 New additions to the revised Forward Together project primarily involved improvements to the west side luxury suites. Estimated at $3.9 million, the west side luxury spaces received their first updates since 1988. Specifically, the west side luxury suite renovations involved carpet replacement and new appliances for each room, new window installation, and the creation of new lounge space for catering and hospitality activities. With respect to the north end zone, the University altered its initial plans by increasing the size of the student section from 8,200 to 10,000 seats and adding a new 104’ x 49’ high definition video board. The aforementioned entry plaza received additional upgrading through the construction of the Jake Gibbs Varsity Letter Walk, which recognizes all past letter winners from all sports at Ole Miss.3 This effort to enhance the game-day experience, to connect with 1 Ole Miss Athletics Foundation, “Forward Together Capital Campaign,” Oxford, MS, accessed August 3, 2016, http://givetoathletics.com/forward-together/. To accommo- date for the expansion the main concourse in the south end zone was expanded by 2,500 square feet, as well as forty-three new restroom facilities and thirty-two more points of sale for concessions. The two corner south end zone video boards were 30’ by 50.’ See also Austin Miller, “Upgrades Continue To Vaught-Hemingway, IPF,” Ole Miss Sports, July 16, 2013, accessed August 5, 2016, http://www.olemisssports.com/sports/m-footbl/ spec-rel/071613aad.html. 2 Lasherica Thornton, “Vaught Construction Nears Conclusion,” The Daily Mis- sissippian, March 7, 2016, accessed August 5, 2016, http://thedmonline.com/vaught-con- struction-nears-conclusion/. 3 Cooke Douglass Farr Lemons. “The University of Mississippi Vaught-Hemingway West Sky Box Renovation,” 2013, accessed August 5, 2016, http://www.cdfl.com/what-we- do/the-university-of-mississippi-vaught-hemingway-west-sky-box-renovation/.

VAUGHT-HEMINGWAY STADIUM 117 alumni, and to promote the school’s athletic history is nothing new as the stadium experienced many renovations with similar goals since its erection as a small 600-seat facility.4 With the facility’s 100th anniversary now passed, it appears fitting to investigate what specific individuals were responsible for the development of Vaught- Hemingway Stadium into the largest stadium in state of Mississippi. Moreover, a descriptive history of changes made to Vaught-Hemingway Stadium seems necessary to better understand how it evolved into an important social anchor for Ole Miss during Saturdays each fall.5 The physical structure of Vaught-Hemingway Stadium supports the cultural activity of football, which creates, promotes, and maintains group and individual identity for Ole Miss fans.6 Social historian Brian Ingrassia stated “well intentioned progressives … made sport permanent by creating athletic departments, constructing concrete stadiums, and hiring a corps of professional experts.”7 Sport historian Ronald A. Smith emphasized many colleges began to build their own large stadiums by 1905 to capitalize on the mass popularity/appeal of college football in particular.8 The popularity of college football was “consummated through commercial facilities (i.e., stadia) built on campus made mostly of concrete” to demonstrate 4 “Many Improvements on Campus Buildings,” The Mississippian, September 30, 1914, p. 8, folder 15, box 1, Dr. Gerald Walton Collection, University of Mississippi Ar- chives, Oxford, MS.

    The Known Cravfishes of Arizona: A Summarv Renort Prepared By Terry Inman Bio.310 For Dr. Paul C. Marsh ASU Center for Environmental Studies Introduction The crayfishes ofNorth America display greater diversity in terms of species than any other part ofthe world. Some 338 recognizedtaxa (308 species and 30 subspecies) exist within the United States and Canada (Taylor, C.A. et d,. 1996). At least one species of crayfish is native to every state in the contiguous United States (Hobbs, H.H. Jr. l9S9) except Arizona which claims no species of its own. Until recently Arizona had (from our earliest records) remained void ofthis diverse group of invertebrates. However, sometime within the last 30 years crayfishes have begun to show up in Arizona waters. Some have been intentionally stocked by the Arizona Game and Fish department (AZGFD stocking records l93l - l99l) and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (verbal - MarstU P.C.) as forage for game fish such as trout and large mouth bass. Although the extent ofthe introductions by the USFWS in not known, the AZGFD has reported three sites of introduction (all lakes), one inl97l, and two in 1991. other sources of crayfish introduction have probably been a result of bait bucket introductions by sport fishermen. Although no direct evidence ofthis is known it is perhaps the most reasonable explanation for their wide spread existence. Despite crayfishes having become common fauna in many Arizona waters they have managed to attract little attention from any Federal, Statg or scientific community. The kinds, distribution, and abundance of Arizona's crayfish is unknown, they have not yet been inventoried, or studied.

    Journal of Issues in Intercollegiate Athletics, 2019, 12, 114-132 114 © 2019 College Sport Research Institute The Fall of Sewanee from “Big-Time” College Football __________________________________________________________ Jim Watkins Mississippi State University ________________________________________________________ This article examines the role of presidential leadership in the decision of Alexander Guerry to remove the University of the South, better known as Sewanee, from the Southeastern Conference (SEC) in 1940. Only three institutions have ever left the SEC (Walsh, 2006), and Sewanee is the only former member that no longer competes in Division I (NCAA, n.d.). Historical sources for the paper include Sewanee’s university archives, as well as archival documents from other SEC institutions. The article argues that Sewanee’s chancellor, Alexander Guerry, ceased offering athletic scholarships and withdrew from the SEC because he believed subsidizing the athletic department with university resources to compete in “big-time” college football was incompatible Sewanee’s liberal arts mission.

Fall of Sewanee 115 T he University of the South, better known as Sewanee since the campus is located in Sewanee, Tennessee, completed one of the most dominant seasons in the history of college football during 1899 (“Sewanee Saga,” n.d.). The Sewanee Tigers won all twelve of their games and scored 327 points while only giving up ten. During the 1800s, it was not unusual for small institutions like Sewanee to compete against state flagship universities (Katz & Seifried, 2014), as could be seen from their wins over Texas, Texas A&M, Louisiana State, Tulane, and Mississippi, all over the course of seven days (“Sewanee Saga,” n.d.).
