To handle the growth, the university will build facilities at a satellite site and impose early applica- tion deadlines, Robert Palmer, vice president of student affairs, told the Associated Students Board of Directors Tuesday. No new growth will occur on the Fullerton campus. Instead, new support services will be added at the El Toro site. To curb rising enrollment, the university already has stopped accepting transfer applications for the fall 2002 semester. “We’ve decided not to grow anymore,” Palmer said. “But we can’t give up the responsibility of providing access to education.” The Student Affairs Division oversees numerous pro- grams, including financial aid, adult re-entry and AS. Palmer said that the division is also monitoring progress of a construction project that will add dorm space for 400 students on the Fullerton campus. Construction is underway and should be completed by fall 2002, he said. “No more barrack-style dorms,” Palmer said. “These are state-of-the-art apartments.” The board also heard a report from Dante Gomez, AS director of statewide affairs. Gomez and seven other AS officers attended the California Higher Education Student Summit from March 2-4 in Sacramento. The delegates attended workshops on leadership, marketing and network- ing. They will use some of the information to implement new programs on campus, Gomez said. The board gave the delegates $1,042.22 on Feb. 5 to pay for registration, transportation and hotel expenses.

  • 1944 All-American Girls Baseball League
    HISTORY MAKER BASEBALL 1944 All-American Girls Professional Baseball League One of the top movies of 1992 was the film “A League of Their Own,” starring Tom Hanks, Geena Davis, Rosie O’Donnell and Madonna, a story about a women’s professional baseball league formed during World War II. The movie was a critical and commercial success, earning glowing reviews, topping the box office by its second week of release, and earning over $150 million in ticket sales. The catch phrase, “There’s no crying in baseball!”—uttered by Rockford Peaches manager Jimmy Dugan (played by Hanks) made the American Film Instutute’s list of Greatest Movie Lines of All-Time, and the film itself was selected by the Library of Congress in 2012 for preservation in the National Film Registry, as being “culturally, historically or aesthetically significant.” Interestingly, when the film opened in ’92, relatively few of the people who saw it knew that it was based on an actual, real-life league—many thought it was complete fiction. But the fictionalized account portrayed in the movie was, in fact, based on a very real story. The All-American Girls Professional Baseball League was formed in 1943 out of concern that with so many players serving in World War II, big league baseball might be forced to suspend operations. The idea was that perhaps women could keep the game active and on the minds of baseball fans until the men could return from the war. The new league was bankrolled by big league owners, conducted nation-wide tryouts to stock its four inaugural teams with talented women players, and began competitive play in the spring of ’43—just as the movie’s screenplay detailed.

  • Who's on First?
    Sue's on First Lessons learned from the oral histories of women baseball players Who's on First? An Honors Thesis (HONRS 499) by Joy Schmoll Advisor: Mark Kornmann Ball State University Muncie, Indiana May 2004 Graduating Spring 2004 Abstract , . :.!'r The girls who played in the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League of the 1940s and 1950s are often credited as pioneers whose accomplishments continue to have far- reaching effects for women. The purpose of this project is to bring new relevance to women's baseball. The current era of professional baseball has been challenged by conservative fans as lacking the strategy, the respectability, and the significance of earlier periods. I propose that by applying an understanding of the history of the AAGPBL to Major League Baseball today, the spirit of the game can be revived. The issues highlighted in this paper as a springboard for considering men's and women's baseball include fan relations, player attitude, and team organization, which are discussed within a framework of historical literature, scholarly journals, scrapbooks, and personal interviews. Acknowledgements I would like to thank Mark Kommann for advising me during the course of this project. His unending flexibility and support allowed the project to unfold naturally, and I could not have completed it without his connections in the Ball State and baseball communities. I am extremely grateful for his encouragement throughout the semester. I would also like to thank the former players of the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League, Isabel Alvarez, Shirley Burkovich, Helen Hannah Campbell, Audrey Haine Daniels, Jane Moffet, Beans Risinger, and Dolly White, for taking the time to share their memories and stories with me.

  • Edith Houghton and the Rise and Fall of Women's
    ABSTRACT Title of Thesis: QUEEN OF DIAMONDS: EDITH HOUGHTON AND THE RISE AND FALL OF WOMEN’S BASEBALL Richard L. Green, Master of Arts in History, 2016 Thesis Directed By: Professor Saverio Giovacchini In the 1920s, women’s semi-professional baseball teams known as Bloomer Girls were a popular form of entertainment throughout the United States. One of the best female players of this era was Edith Houghton. Houghton had a successful baseball career and even travelled to Japan in 1925 to play on a women’s baseball team known as the Philadelphia Bobbies. By the 1930s, however, women were largely expected to play softball. Despite a brief revival of women’s baseball during the 1940s, the idea that women play softball and men play baseball has largely persisted. An analysis of Houghton’s career reveals the sociological factors that allowed women to play baseball in the 1920s and forced women into softball during the 1930s. The presence and rejection of female baseball players parallels broader changes in American gender relations, and illustrates the socially constructed nature of sport.

Green Thesis submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of the University of Maryland, College Park, in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Masters of Arts in History 2016 Advisory Committee: Professor Saverio Giovacchini, Chair Professor Robyn L.
