  • News in Brief
    NEWS IN BRIEF PROFESSOR KAZYS GRIGAS: 90TH BIRTH ANNIVERSARY Kazys Grigas was born into a farmers’ family in Pagiriai, Kaunas district, on March 1, 1924. He graduated from a gardening and floriculture school in Kaunas, and attended Vilkija Gymnasium. In 1944 he entered Kaunas Theological Seminary to avoid enlisting into the Soviet army. In 1945, after having taken the entrance examinations, he was admitted to the Faculty of History and Philology at Kaunas National Vytautas Magnus University. When ideological cleansing started at the university in 1948, K. Grigas was expelled with an entry in his personal file: “Expelled from Kaunas University for behaviour incompatible with a Soviet student’s honour and duties”. Later on, K. Grigas studied at Kaunas Teachers Seminary, took librarianship equiva- lency examinations, taught at a gymnasium (Lithuanian and Latin languages), and worked at the bookbindery at the library of the History Institute of the Academy of Sciences in Vilnius. In 1951 he took equivalency examinations and graduated from Vilnius University. In 1954 K. Grigas started working at the Lithuanian Institute of Language and Literature (now Lithuanian Literature and Folklore Institute), where he became engaged in the field of folkloristics. K. Grigas spent the years from 1990 to 1998 teaching: he taught a course in paremiology at Vytautas Magnus University in Kaunas, and later on a comparative folkloristics course at Vilnius University. K. Grigas translated various works of fiction, for instance, L. Carroll’sAlice’s Adventures in Won- derland (1957) and Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking-Glass (1991, in collaboration with J. Lapienytė), R.

    August 2013 Iron Game History Beyond the Hack Squat: George Hackenschmidt' s Forgotten Legacy as a Strength Training Pioneer FLORIAN HEMME AND JAN TODD* The University of Texas at Austin But, as will be seen, it has not been my design to confine myself to laying down a series ofmles for strong men and athletes only: my object in writing this book has been rather to lay before my read­ ers such data as may enable them to secure health as well as strength. Health can never be divorced from strength. The second is an inevitable sequel to the first. A man can only fortify himself against disease by strengthening his body in such manner as will enable it to defy the attacks of any mala­ dy.! -George Hackenschmidt in The Way to Live Born in Dorpat, Estonia on 2 August 1878, his unique training philosophy and "system.

  • Eesti Spordifoto Pikkade Säriaegade Kiuste Eesti Spordifoto Pikkade Säriaegade Kiuste Photography Defying Long Exposure Time
    EESTI SPORDIFOTO PIKKADE SÄRIAEGADE KIUSTE / ESTONIAN SPORTS PHOTOGRAPHY DEFYING LONG EXPOSURE TIME EESTI SPORDIFOTO PIKKADE SÄRIAEGADE KIUSTE Ajaloolane TÕNIS LIIBEK heidab pilgu ajale, mil Eestis tehti esimesed ülesvõtted sportimisest, ning tutvustab, kuidas spordifoto muutus mõne aastakümnega staatilisest dünaamiliseks. Enda kehalise arendamise, sportlike mängude ja võistlemisega on Eestis tegeletud läbi aastasadade, kuid spordi harrastamine tänapäevases mõttes hakkas levima alles 19. sajandil. Nõnda hakati 1802. aastal taasavatud Tartu Ülikoolis õpetama ratsu- tamist, vehklemist, ujumist ja tantsimist ning 1805. aastal Võru- maal Kanepi kihelkonnakoolis poistele kehalist kasvatust.1 Spordiseltsidesse organiseerumine algas Eestis 1820. aastal Uljaste Purjetajate Ordu (Orden Kühner Segler)2 asutamisega Tal- linnas, kuid hoogustus eelkõige 19. sajandi teisel poolel. Kõik esi- mesed klubid ja ühingud asutasid baltisakslased. Kuigi fotograafia oli hakanud Eestis levima juba 1840. aastatel, pärinevad varaseimad ülesvõtted sportimisest või kohalikest spordiüritustest alles 1870. aastatest. Nõnda jäädvustas Carl Schulz 1879. aastal üliõpilaste spordipidu Tartus (foto 1). Neil varas- tel fotodel pole püütud kujutada aga mitte sportimist, vaid üritu- sest osavõtjaid. Suuresti oli see tingitud pikast säriajast, mistõttu 3 välditi kiire liikumise pildistamist. Foto 1. Carl Schulz. Üliõpilaste spordipidu 1879. aastal Tartus Toome oru võimlemisväljakul.
