    University of Nevada, Reno Reno at the Races: The Sporting Life versus Progressive Reform A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in History By Emerson Marcus Dr. William D. Rowley/Thesis Advisor May 2015 THE GRADUATE SCHOOL We recommend that the thesis prepared under our supervision by EMERSON MARCUS Entitled Reno At The Races: Sporting Life Versus Progressive Reform be accepted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS William D. Rowley, Ph.D., Advisor Elizabeth Raymond, Ph.D., Committee Member Greta de Jong, Ph.D., Committee Member Alicia Barber, Ph.D., Graduate School Representative David W. Zeh, Ph. D., Dean, Graduate School May, 2015 i Abstract The thesis examines horse race betting in the state of Nevada from 1915 to 1931 and how two opposing forces — sporting life and progressive reform — converged as state lawmakers passed progressive gambling legislation. While maybe not a catalyst, this legislation began Nevada’s slippery slope to becoming a wide-open gambling state. It examines how the acceptance of horse race betting opened the door for more ambitious forms of gambling while other states eventually followed Nevada’s lead and passed similar horse race betting law during the Great Depression. While other western states followed suit and legalized horse race betting during the Great Depression, month-long race meetings in Reno disbanded, as Nevada opened itself to wide-open gambling. ii Table of Contents Acknowledgments iii I.

  • Richard Nash a Perfect Nicking Pattern
    H U M a N I M A L I A 10:1 Richard Nash A Perfect Nicking Pattern Almost a generation ago, Bruno Latour’s trenchant long essay, We Have Never Been Modern , proposed as its governing hypothesis that the ideological fiction of “modernity,” under which we had long engaged our actions, was itself dependent on the simultaneous deployment of two complementary practices, which he termed “purification” and “translation.” To be fully modern, according to this formulation, was to openly avow the productions of those works of purification that separated the social world (realm of the human) from the natural world (realm of the non-human), while simultaneously disavowing those hybrid productions resulting from translation: So long as we consider these two practices of translation and purification separately, we are truly modern — that is, we willingly subscribe to the critical project, even though that project is developed only through the proliferation of hybrids down below. As soon as we direct our attention simultaneously to the work of purification and the work of hybridization, we immediately stop being wholly modern, and our future begins to change. (11) Latour was right about that, and our future has begun to change. This essay suggests that the breed of horse now designated as “thoroughbred” constitutes a particularly apt and valuable avatar for the ideological fiction of “modernity:” simultaneously non- human natural “other” and nature-culture hybrid of human artifact and management, the real flesh and blood animals pawing the turf today are inextricably intertwined with the cultural phantasms of purity, hybridity, racialized breed identity, registries, and those cultural apparatuses and inscription practices that police, promote, protect, and valorize certain formulations of modern identity formation.

  • Harry Worcester Smith Archive
    Archives & Manuscript Collections National Sporting Library Middleburg, VA Harry Worcester Smith Archive Name: Smith, Harry Worcester MC0041 Materials: Correspondence, photographs, typescripts, publications, pamphlets, event programs, newspaper clippings, magazines Dates: 1875-1977 Usage: Unless otherwise stated by NSL staff, these records are open for research without restrictions. Biographical Note Harry Worcester Smith was born in 1865, a second-generation American of English descent. He lived most of his life in Grafton, MA on his estate Lordvale, which was destroyed by fire in 1940. He was a successful businessman in the textile industry. He was a patent expert, perfecting over 30 patents on automatic color weaving which revolutionized the manufacture of gingham. Smith started the Grafton Country Club with the desire to bring wholesome English outdoor life, riding, shooting and hunting to America. He was a champion four-in- hand driver. His horses “Sky-High” and “Sue Woodstock” won three National Horse Shows at Madison Square Garden. He took up steeplechasing in his thirties, winning the Genesee Valley Point-to- Point, the gentlemen’s Whitney race at Saratoga in 1897, the Meadow Brook Hunt Cup on Long Island in 1898 and 1899, and the Champion Steeplechase of America in 1900. He placed first at the Grand National Steeplechase at Sheepshead bay in 1901, as well as in the Hempstead and Calvert Cups in Baltimore the same year. A pivotal moment in his foxhunting career is known as The Great Hound Match of 1905 in which English foxhounds and American foxhounds were put to the test to see which breed was superior. Smith and his American foxhounds proved to be the victor by the final judgment at the end of the two week match.

  • Timeline of the Development of the Horse
    SINO-PLATONIC PAPERS Number 177 August, 2007 Timeline of the Development of the Horse by Beverley Davis Victor H. Mair, Editor Sino-Platonic Papers Department of East Asian Languages and Civilizations University of Pennsylvania Philadelphia, PA 19104-6305 USA [email protected] www.sino-platonic.org SINO-PLATONIC PAPERS is an occasional series edited by Victor H. Mair. The purpose of the series is to make available to specialists and the interested public the results of research that, because of its unconventional or controversial nature, might otherwise go unpublished. The editor actively encourages younger, not yet well established, scholars and independent authors to submit manuscripts for consideration. Contributions in any of the major scholarly languages of the world, including Romanized Modern Standard Mandarin (MSM) and Japanese, are acceptable. In special circumstances, papers written in one of the Sinitic topolects (fangyan) may be considered for publication. Although the chief focus of Sino-Platonic Papers is on the intercultural relations of China with other peoples, challenging and creative studies on a wide variety of philological subjects will be entertained. This series is not the place for safe, sober, and stodgy presentations. Sino-Platonic Papers prefers lively work that, while taking reasonable risks to advance the field, capitalizes on brilliant new insights into the development of civilization. The only style-sheet we honor is that of consistency. Where possible, we prefer the usages of the Journal of Asian Studies. Sinographs (hanzi, also called tetragraphs [fangkuaizi]) and other unusual symbols should be kept to an absolute minimum. Sino-Platonic Papers emphasizes substance over form.

  • Here You See the Most Life and Interesting People, Go There
    REBECCA CASSIDY Introduction Pathos and Poetry The fi rst episode of Luck , a television series created by David Milch (NYPD Blue , Deadwood ), directed by Michael Mann (Manhunter , Heat ) and fi lmed at Santa Anita Park in California, aired on Home Box Offi ce in December 2011. It was immediately taken into a second season and broadcast in Britain in early 2012. In the conservative world of television writing, David Milch is regarded as a maverick genius, known for his uncompromising take on American life. Luck is no Seabiscuit . The fi rst episode weaves together a number of stories: the release from prison of Chester ‘Ace’ Bernstein (Dustin Hoffman), a racehorse owner with links to organised crime; a pick-six attempt by four inveterate gamblers or ‘railbirds’; and a hard boot trainer (Nick Nolte) with a dark horse. It also includes the humane destruction of a horse on the track, its head cradled in the arms of a tearful bug boy. Luck is a complex, unfl inching portrayal of violence and corruption at the track. Dialogue- and character-driven, it invites refl ection and understand- ing rather than judgement. Milch, a lifelong race fan and winner of two Breeders Cups, describes his series as ‘a love letter’, albeit an unsentimental one: ‘To me, the track is what the river was to Mark Twain. Where you see the most life and interesting people, go there. That’s what I’ve done.’ 1 In March 2012, halfway through fi lming the second episode of the second sea- son, production of Luck was permanently suspended by HBO, when a third horse had to be euthanized as a result of an accident on the set.

  • KLAMPENBORG Racetime PER AAGAARD BUSTRUP Heldigvis Sejrede Fornuften Til Sidst!
    December 2015/2 KLAMPENBORG Racetime PER AAGAARD BUSTRUP Heldigvis sejrede fornuften til sidst! I 1900 blev spil på heste forbudt i flere ameri- kanske stater. Blandt disse var New York langt den største. Det slog hurtigt igennem på pri- serne på væddeløbsheste, der faldt drastisk. Flere amerikansk-opdrættede heste var før den tid blevet sendt til Europa for at løbe vædde- løb. Men nu frygtede den engelske Jockey Club, at mange ville blive i England med avl for øje. Navnlig formanden Lord Jersey advarede mod denne udvikling. Men hvorfor denne frygt? Den skyldtes, at man ikke kunne føle sig sikker på, at de amerikanske heste var 100 pct. fuldblod, hvorfor de ikke kunne optages i The General Stud Book (billedet). Ame- rican Stud Book krævede kun, at en hest kunne føres fem generationer tilbage, hvilket slet ikke var J. B. Haggin Lord Jersey nok til at blive optaget i The General Stud Book. Endvidere var mange optegnelser i American Stud Book gået tabt under Borgerkrigen.
