  • Spring Edition TORCH 2019
    lighting the way by sharing ideas ICA Spring 2019 EXECUTIVE SECRETARY’S COLUMN Hello, I hope everyone has been having a good spring sports season despite the crazy weather this year. Rain and snow and more rain have made things difficult for all of you. So hopefully we are looking at great weather as we head into the post season tournaments. Good Luck to everyone! Summer is just around the corner and that means plenty of summer camps, tournaments, 7 on 7 compe - titions, summer weight room and summer jobs. With that said, please be mindful of your athletes. As coaches we control how much we ask and expect of our athletes during the summer contact days. Remember that it is summer, not competition season, and kids need a chance to be kids. I can’t be Drew Potthoff more emphatic about the time we are demanding of our athletes in the summer. Make sure that you Executive Secretary plan your summer with your kids and their families in mind as well as your program needs. It’s a good Illinois Coaches idea, especially around the 4 th of July, to plan some off days so that families can be together to celebrate Association the holiday. This year the 4 th of July falls on a Thursday; try to schedule that Wednesday and/or Friday as off days with your athletes and their families. If we can reduce some of the stress on our athletes during the short summer months, it can only bring you rewards from your athletes in that they will be fresher with less burn out come August.

    Finding aid for the Cleveland Press Photograph Collection Repository: Cleveland State University Title: Cleveland Press Photograph Collection Inclusive Date(s): 1920-1982 Author: Finding aid prepared by Lynn Duchez Bycko Creation: Finding aid encoded by Kiffany Francis using the OhioLINK EAD Application in 2009 Descriptive Rules: Finding aid prepared using Finding aid prepared using Describing Archives: A Content Standard. Origination: Cole, Joseph E. Extent: 882 linear feet Physical Location: Abstract: After the Cleveland Press newspaper ceased publication on June 17, 1982. Joseph E. Cole, its publisher, donated the "morgue" to Cleveland State University. Representing the archived editorial library, sometimes referred to as a "newspaper morgue," topics focus on the news coverage of northeastern Ohio, with national and international news stories holding a secondary level of importance.The Cleveland Press photograph collection is composed of an archive of over one million photographs. Unit ID: PH2000.000PRE Language(s) of the Materials: English History of The Cleveland Press The Cleveland Press, founded by Edward W. Scripps, began as the Penny Press on 2 Nov. 1878. A small, 4-page afternoon daily, the paper continued to prosper. Shortened to the Press in 1884, and finally the Cleveland Press in 1889, by 1903 the Press was Cleveland's leading daily newspaper. As it entered the 1920s, the Press neared 200,000 in circulation. Louis B. Seltzer became the 12th editor of the Press in 1928, and under his 38-year stewardship the Press became one of the country's most influential newspapers. Seltzer readjusted its original working-class bias into a less controversial neighborhood orientation, stressing personal contacts and promoting the slogan "The Newspaper That Serves Its Readers." In the postwar period the Press continued its public service campaigns and remained an unrivaled force in Ohio politics.
