  • Al Brancato This Article Was Written by David E
    Al Brancato This article was written by David E. Skelton The fractured skull Philadelphia Athletics shortstop Skeeter Newsome suffered on April 9, 1938 left a gaping hole in the club’s defense. Ten players, including Newsome after he recovered, attempted to fill the void through the 1939 season. One was Al Brancato, a 20- year-old September call-up from Class-A ball who had never played shortstop professionally. Enticed by the youngster’s cannon right arm, Athletics manager Connie Mack moved him from third base to short in 1940. On June 21, after watching Brancato retire Chicago White Sox great Luke Appling on a hard-hit grounder, Mack exclaimed, “There’s no telling how good that boy is going to be.”1 Though no one in the organization expected the diminutive (5-feet-nine and 188 pounds) Philadelphia native’s offense to cause fans to forget former Athletics infield greats Home Run Baker or Eddie Collins, the club was satisfied that Brancato could fill in defensively. “You keep on fielding the way you are and I’ll do the worrying about your hitting,” Mack told Brancato in May 1941.2 Ironically, the youngster’s defensive skills would fail him before the season ended. In September, as the club spiraled to its eighth straight losing season, “baseball’s grand old gentleman” lashed out. “The infielders—[Benny] McCoy, Brancato and [Pete] Suder—are terrible,” Mack grumbled. “They have hit bottom. Suder is so slow it is painful to watch him; Brancato is erratic and McCoy is—oh, he’s just McCoy, that’s all.” 3 After the season ended Brancato enlisted in the US Navy following the country’s entry into the Second World War.

    Catalog of Donor Scholarships at Carroll University arroll University is blessed to have a generous network of friends who believe in the value of a Carroll education, and Cchose to make investments to help students who have a passion for learning. Funding for our scholarships comes from our loyal alumni base, our board of trustees, our dedicated faculty and staff, our corporate partners in the community and other friends of Carroll. The importance of scholarships and financial aid cannot be overstated. More than 98 percent of current students at Carroll receive some type of financial assistance. Scholarships can make the difference not only in whether a student attends college, but also whether that student remains. This listing shares the stories of the people behind the scholarships, and their affinity for Carroll. Many of these scholarships are established as endowed funds, providing a permanent income stream for annual scholarships which carry on the name of the donor and create a personal legacy. As you read through this catalog, you will come to realize we are connected. There is a common thread that binds each one of us to one another. From generations past to today, the people of Carroll—the stories we share, the memories we hold, and the education gained—is what keeps the spirit of Carroll alive. We celebrate the generosity and the legacy these individuals have made in helping advance Carroll’s mission of preparing students for lives of meaning, purpose and success. 2 CATALOG OF DONOR SCHOLARSHIPS AT CARROLL UNIVERSITY Karl F. and Virginia Abendroth Endowed Scholarship Fund Established through the estate of Virginia Abendroth '44 in 2016.

  • American Heritage Center
    UNIVERSITY OF WYOMING AMERICAN HERITAGE CENTER GUIDE TO ENTERTAINMENT INDUSTRY RESOURCES Child actress Mary Jane Irving with Bessie Barriscale and Ben Alexander in the 1918 silent film Heart of Rachel. Mary Jane Irving papers, American Heritage Center. Compiled by D. Claudia Thompson and Shaun A. Hayes 2009 PREFACE When the University of Wyoming began collecting the papers of national entertainment figures in the 1970s, it was one of only a handful of repositories actively engaged in the field. Business and industry, science, family history, even print literature were all recognized as legitimate fields of study while prejudice remained against mere entertainment as a source of scholarship. There are two arguments to be made against this narrow vision. In the first place, entertainment is very much an industry. It employs thousands. It requires vast capital expenditure, and it lives or dies on profit. In the second place, popular culture is more universal than any other field. Each individual’s experience is unique, but one common thread running throughout humanity is the desire to be taken out of ourselves, to share with our neighbors some story of humor or adventure. This is the basis for entertainment. The Entertainment Industry collections at the American Heritage Center focus on the twentieth century. During the twentieth century, entertainment in the United States changed radically due to advances in communications technology. The development of radio made it possible for the first time for people on both coasts to listen to a performance simultaneously. The delivery of entertainment thus became immensely cheaper and, at the same time, the fame of individual performers grew.

    Journal of Quantitative Analysis in Sports Volume 4, Issue 1 2008 Article 1 Estimated Age Effects in Baseball Ray C. Fair, Yale University Recommended Citation: Fair, Ray C. (2008) "Estimated Age Effects in Baseball," Journal of Quantitative Analysis in Sports: Vol. 4: Iss. 1, Article 1. DOI: 10.2202/1559-0410.1074 ©2008 American Statistical Association. All rights reserved. Brought to you by | Yale University Library New Haven (Yale University Library New Haven) Authenticated | 172.16.1.226 Download Date | 3/28/12 11:34 PM Estimated Age Effects in Baseball Ray C. Fair Abstract Age effects in baseball are estimated in this paper using a nonlinear fixed-effects regression. The sample consists of all players who have played 10 or more "full-time" years in the major leagues between 1921 and 2004. Quadratic improvement is assumed up to a peak-performance age, which is estimated, and then quadratic decline after that, where the two quadratics need not be the same. Each player has his own constant term. The results show that aging effects are larger for pitchers than for batters and larger for baseball than for track and field, running, and swimming events and for chess. There is some evidence that decline rates in baseball have decreased slightly in the more recent period, but they are still generally larger than those for the other events. There are 18 batters out of the sample of 441 whose performances in the second half of their careers noticeably exceed what the model predicts they should have been. All but 3 of these players played from 1990 on.

It is exciting to see how everyone has risen to meet the challenges we’ve faced and found creative ways to pro- mote the club’s mission of “promoting friendship and the sharing of mutual interests.” I also want to thank all our loyal members who have re- newed their membership, and I encourage you all to reach out to both new arrivals in the area and long-standing members of our community to let them know about all the CWC can offer. I’m confident the CWC will be under excellent leadership next year with Gloria Mullendore as President and with a talented board ready to serve. I’m excited to continue serv- ing as Membership Chair next year. Just like last year, we are not spending a delightful evening in the garden of the President’s House at the Spring Scattering, but I’m hoping that I will have the opportunity to see more CWC mem- bers in person soon.
