Edith Werth, also of Buffalo, finished second with a 49.6% average. The tournament committee wants to have separate classes next year for women of high and low abilities. Consequently all women are invited to enter. In Class A, Howard Shriver of Wades town, West Virginia upended defend- ing champion Oscar Engle of Pittsburgh, Pa. Shriver held Engle to second place by defeating him 52-46 in a very close game. Shriver averaged 76.4%, although Engle edged him here with a 79.4%. Class B competition saw Jack Rainbow of Monaca, Pa. set a personal high average ringer percentage of 72.5% while also taking the class for the first time. Carl Elder of New Castle, Pa. finished a distant second with a 61.9% average. Ed Blum of Darlington, Pa. gained Class C hoonrs by defeating Ray Slocum of Akron, Ohio in a playoff.

BEST WISHES for a Happy Holiday Season NHPA OFFICERS NEWS DIGEST STAFF The Horseshoe Pitcher's News Digest/December, 1968 In Memoriam Roy Kimmell of Albion, Ind. passed away in August after a long illness. Roy was a founder and former officer of the Avilla Horseshoe club and had been active in horseshoe circles of northeast Indiana for many years. His first tournament game was in 1927 at Old Settlers Day in Columbia City, Ind. and his first opponent was Bob Pence, now the NHPA Secretary- Treasurer who was also playing in his first tournament. Sympathy of the NHPA is extended to the members of his family and the Avilla Horseshoe Club where his loss will be keenly felt. Tennessee members were saddened by the passing of Hubert Davenport. Mr. Davenport died recently of a heart attack. Hubert was one of the great horseshoe pitchers in Tennessee and was champion in many tournaments. He was a former State Fair champion and threw a 3/4 turn with a high 70% average. In one tournament between Mr. Davenport and D. Lebow "another Tennes- see great" there were so many four deads that the clay was pushed down around the stake that the top shoe was even with the clay. Mr. Davenport was always ready to help the beginners in horseshoe pitch- ing.

I lusted after the various sports games advertised in the magazines until my mom finally relented and bought Strat-O-Matic Football for me in 1972. I got SOM’s baseball game a year later and I was hooked. I would get the new card set each year and attempt to play the in-progress season by moving the traded players around and turning ‘nameless player cards” into that year’s key rookies. I switched to APBA in the late ‘70’s because they started releasing some complete old season sets and the idea of playing with those really caught my fancy. Between then and the mid-nineties, I collected a lot of card sets.

  • Ole Haugsrud Remembers
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 10, No. 5 (1988) OLE HAUGSRUD REMEMBERS Sometime in the early 1940’s, Ole Haugsrud sat down and wrote about his career in pro football. Haugsrud was the man who led the Ernie Nevers Eskimos out of Duluth, MN, and across the country in 1926. Like most football pioneers when writing their memoirs, Haugsrud felt compelled to give a complete history of pro football – most of it totally wrong. More surprising were the errors he made in scores, locations, and dates. We can assume he was working mostly from memory with little documentation. In the following, we have excised those references to NFL history that have no connection with either Duluth or Haugsrud or the real world. In those places where Haugsrud made errors in dates and scores, we have simply corrected his text. Nevertheless, some of his errors of memory need long explanations. Despite its errors, we believe Haugsrud’s memoir is worth preserving. It contains material about the history of pro football in Duluth (including long lists of players) that are unavailable elsewhere. * * * * Professional football in the United States, afflicted during its formative years with the customary financial reverses, misconceptions, misunderstanding, misinformation and vested prejudices, always visited upon any pioneering venture – and especially sports – now rests on a solid foundation. The National League of Professional Football teams, the parent organization, is well fortified financially, powerful in membership and accepted with spirited acclaim by the American sports-loving public, now views for popularity with the National and American Baseball leagues. An insight into the growth of pro-football can be had from statistics which show that in 1921, 3,000 to 4,000 paid admissions was a big crowd and two paragraphs once or twice a week in the local newspapers was an outstanding publicity.

After winning six of the National Football League’s first 24 championships, the Packers won only 55 games, while losing 107 and tying 3, from 1945 through 1958. No wonder that Packer fans dwelt on the past, and the great legends of the past—Canadeo, Hutson, Herber, Hubbard, Hinkle, Dilweg, Lewellen, Isbell, Michalske, Lambeau. But the greatest legend of all was Johnny Blood, because he was not only a great football player, but also a colorful, flamboyant personality off the field. (His one-time teammate and fellow member of the Pro Football Hall of Fame, Clarke Hinkle, once said, “Next to Johnny Blood, Joe Namath looks like Little Lord Fauntleroy.”) I grew up in Green Bay during that period and, by the time I was thirteen and thinking of becoming a writer, I knew that someday I wanted to write a book about this legendary charac- ter.

    7194_George Nicholson ARTHUR G. SCOTLAND. Welcome to the chambers of George Nicholson, Associate Justice of the California Courts of Appeal, Third Appellate District, right here in the magnificent Library & Courts Building in our state’s capital, Sacramento. I am Art Scotland, the retired presiding justice of this court. It’s a treat for me that Justice Nicholson, known to his friends as Nick, asked me to interview him for this Legacy Project Interview. The purpose of the Legacy Project is to preserve the history of the California Courts of Appeal and its justices. This project is a worthy and important endeavor, because as observed by Martin Luther King, Jr., we are made by history. And as noted by American historian John Henrik Clarke, history tells us where we are, but more importantly, where we must be. Nick, we have been colleagues and friends for about 35 years, and because you have had such an interesting and meaningful life, both on the bench and off the bench, the challenge will be to limit this interview to a reasonable amount of time. The interview guidelines understandably asked me to begin with eliciting some biographical information about you. So let’s start by please telling us about where you were born, when you were born and about your parents and any other individuals in your life that had a big influence on you during your early years. JUSTICE GEORGE NICHOLSON. I was born in Dallas, Texas, in 1941, in February, and I was the firstborn child in the family. My father was one of five boys and a girl.
