    Barney DeForge “Luckie No More” ©DiamondsintheDusk.com On a seasonably warm Friday evening in Winston-Salem’s venerable Southside May 14, 1948 Park, the homestanding Cardinals, behind the two-hit pitching of lefty Jack Southside Park Frisinger, take the measure of visiting Reidsville 5-0 in one of four Carolina (D) Winston-Salem, North Carolina League games played that day. At first glance, it seems like just another day of minor league baseball in the Tar Heel State. After all, Winston-Salem, the league’s preseason favorite, currently resides in first place with an impressive 18-7 mark while the fifth-place Luckies drop to 9-12 and a full seven games behind their hosts. And being shutout by the 20-year-old Frisinger, a rising star in the St. Louis Car- dinals farm system, comes as no surprise to Carolina League fans. Said “to be faster than Harvey Haddix,” the burgeoning Cardinals ace limits the Luckies to a pair of singles en route to securing the third of an eventual team-high 18 wins. The 6-foot-1 Kalamazoo, Michigan, native strikes out seven and walks three in the route-going effort. However, several events that take place during the game that are suspicious and, unfortunately, a harbinger of problems to come, both for DeForge and the Carolina League. First, Winston-Salem officials report to the police there is a person in the stands “making heavy bets,” giving Reidsville and two runs which meant that if the Cardinals won by three or more runs, he will win all bets placed.

    foreword The purpose of this publication is to create a nostalgic viewpoint regarding the history of Crookston. Limited space, time allowed, and length of period covered do not, and cannot, allow for the comprehensive history. The Polk County Historical Society's publication in 1976 provided a thorough coverage of area history including that of pioneer families in surrounding communities. In the few months allotted our committee to compile information, a concerted effort was made by a committee of five to research city records, accomplish interviews, and study a vast amount of literature. It is the hope of the Centennial Committee that sometime in the future a group could be found willing to donate at least two years of their time to compile a complete historical account of Crookston. Somehow, even though time allowed us to only tap the surface, we're convinced a follow-up team of volunteers would thoroughly enjoy their two year dedication. In order to avoid unauthorized duplication of material the Crookston Centennial Committee has requested acknowledgement for any material used from this book. For what has been accomplished in these 120 pages, we are deeply grateful to a number of people who, like ourselves, volunteered their time towards one specific goal.... a nostalgic return to the past. We hope you enjoy your journey.

  • Miss Homegrown: the Performance of Food, Festival, and Femininity in Local Queen Pageants
    MISS HOMEGROWN: THE PERFORMANCE OF FOOD, FESTIVAL, AND FEMININITY IN LOCAL QUEEN PAGEANTS Heather A.Williams A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY August 2009 Committee: Dr. Ronald Shields, Advisor Dr. Lynda Dee Dixon Graduate Faculty Representative Dr. Jonathan Chambers Dr. Lesa Lockford ii ABSTRACT Dr. Ronald Shields, Advisor The cultural phenomenon of the beauty pageant, one could argue, is deeply embedded in the gendered performance of the feminine ideal. Although, in recent years, the Miss America Pageant appears to be fading into kitschy nostalgia, the local pageant remains a celebratory and respected event held in many small Midwestern communities. The appeal of the pageant as a performance genre continues to reflect the qualities of the American feminine ideal – beauty, perfection, “healthy” competition, consumption, and consumerism. However, local pageants are often rooted within festival celebration and thereby represent and maintain the social and consumer values inherent in each individual community. Using case studies of local festival pageants held in the Midwestern state of Ohio as well as interviews with pageant contestants, in this study I locate the ways in which contestants perform, within the given boundaries of the pageant, a small town version of the feminine ideal. In relation to the values of economy and prosperity that local festival celebrates, I specifically examine festivals that are centered on the celebration of food. In doing so, I equate the gendered performance of the young female body in relation to the food whose title she bears and identify how the feminine body is at once consumed and celebrated by the local community.
