  • Retrieving the Past? a Consideration of Texts
    VIEWS AND REVIEWS Retrieving the Past? A Consideration of Texts Judith Snodgrass he consequences of Shaku SOen’s participation in the World’s Parlia­ ment of Religions in Chicago, 1893, are well known. His paper “ The Law ofT Cause and Effect as Taught by the Buddha” attracted the attention of Paul Cams and the subsequent friendship between Shaku SOen and Cams led di­ rectly to D. T. Suzuki’s presence in America and the introduction of Japanese MahSySna Buddhism to the West. Less well known is that Shaku SOen present­ ed a second paper, “ Arbitration Instead of W ar,” which has received little at­ tention beyond Robert Aitken’s attempts to reconcile its pacifist message with its author’s later involvement in Japan’s war against Russia.1 Aitken Rdshi’s paper, like most other studies of the Parliament, is based on the official record published by the Parliament’s chairman, the Reverend John Henry Barrows.2 The Parliament generated a profusion of literature,3 but Barrows’s account alone was to be considered authoritative. Each paper carried his copyright. The book, extensively edited and embellished with photographs—not artists’ impressions but captured instances of “ reality” —was to be the tme record of the event. It was the organizers* stated plan that it would become a source of reference and debate.4 It was to be a record for the next century to judge and 1 Robert Aitken, “Three Lessons from Shaku SOen,” in Fred Epstein and Dennis Maloney, eds., The Path o f Compassion: Contemporary Writings on Engaged Bud­ dhism , Buddhist Peace Press, Berkeley, 1985, pp.

  • The Ice Bowl: the Cold Truth About Football's Most Unforgettable Game
    SPORTS | FOOTBALL $16.95 GRUVER An insightful, bone-chilling replay of pro football’s greatest game. “ ” The Ice Bowl —Gordon Forbes, pro football editor, USA Today It was so cold... THE DAY OF THE ICE BOWL GAME WAS SO COLD, the referees’ whistles wouldn’t work; so cold, the reporters’ coffee froze in the press booth; so cold, fans built small fires in the concrete and metal stands; so cold, TV cables froze and photographers didn’t dare touch the metal of their equipment; so cold, the game was as much about survival as it was Most Unforgettable Game About Football’s The Cold Truth about skill and strategy. ON NEW YEAR’S EVE, 1967, the Dallas Cowboys and the Green Bay Packers met for a classic NFL championship game, played on a frozen field in sub-zero weather. The “Ice Bowl” challenged every skill of these two great teams. Here’s the whole story, based on dozens of interviews with people who were there—on the field and off—told by author Ed Gruver with passion, suspense, wit, and accuracy. The Ice Bowl also details the history of two legendary coaches, Tom Landry and Vince Lombardi, and the philosophies that made them the fiercest of football rivals. Here, too, are the players’ stories of endurance, drive, and strategy. Gruver puts the reader on the field in a game that ended with a play that surprised even those who executed it. Includes diagrams, photos, game and season statistics, and complete Ice Bowl play-by-play Cheers for The Ice Bowl A hundred myths and misconceptions about the Ice Bowl have been answered.

This is the third excerpt, covering the public- ity photographs of the last forty-five years and a few photographs of earlier events, Bud Berger, and other members of the stage crew. The publicity photographs are primarily of individ- ual performers, but a few shows are presented as well, including Ain’t Misbehavin’, Annie, Barnum, Bubbling Brown Sugar, Cabaret, California Suite, Cats, A Christ- mas Carol, Dancin’, Evita, Gypsy, I'm Getting My Act Together And Taking It On The Road, Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, Peter Pan, Same Time Next Year, Side by Side by Sondheim, and Ziegfeld: A Night at the Follies.

  • Ronald Davis Oral History Collection on the Performing Arts
    Oral History Collection on the Performing Arts in America Southern Methodist University The Southern Methodist University Oral History Program was begun in 1972 and is part of the University’s DeGolyer Institute for American Studies. The goal is to gather primary source material for future writers and cultural historians on all branches of the performing arts- opera, ballet, the concert stage, theatre, films, radio, television, burlesque, vaudeville, popular music, jazz, the circus, and miscellaneous amateur and local productions. The Collection is particularly strong, however, in the areas of motion pictures and popular music and includes interviews with celebrated performers as well as a wide variety of behind-the-scenes personnel, several of whom are now deceased. Most interviews are biographical in nature although some are focused exclusively on a single topic of historical importance. The Program aims at balancing national developments with examples from local history. Interviews with members of the Dallas Little Theatre, therefore, serve to illustrate a nation-wide movement, while film exhibition across the country is exemplified by the Interstate Theater Circuit of Texas. The interviews have all been conducted by trained historians, who attempt to view artistic achievements against a broad social and cultural backdrop. Many of the persons interviewed, because of educational limitations or various extenuating circumstances, would never write down their experiences, and therefore valuable information on our nation’s cultural heritage would be lost if it were not for the S.M.U. Oral History Program. Interviewees are selected on the strength of (1) their contribution to the performing arts in America, (2) their unique position in a given art form, and (3) availability.

  • When the Nfl Had Character
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 16, No. 1 (1995) WHEN THE NFL HAD CHARACTER By Stanley Grosshandler Two generations of football fans have grown up since the 1953 season, part of the decade called "The Golden Age of the NFL." Younger fans today may find it surprising to learn that the NFL was losing star players back then to the draft (remember the draft?) and to the Canadian Football League. The Korean Conflict had siphoned several top men into the service, including Cleveland tackle Bob Gain, the Cardinals great Ollie Matson, and San Francisco's versatile tackle Bob Toneff. Meanwhile, the Canadian Football League made some inroads by luring a handful north of the border. Among the emmigrants were Cleveland's star end Mac Speedie, the Giants' center-tackle Tex Coulter and defensive end Ray Poole, San Francisco defensive back Jim Cason, and an Eagle receiver named Bud Grant who would return a dozen years later as a coach. Although these and several other well-known players missed the 1953 season, the league still continued to grow in popularity -- due in part to the individual aura that made each team special. Teams then had a their own particular character and each had an identifiable leader. They were not the plastic, look-alike teams who strive today for parity (another name for mediocracy) and play for the field goal. Reviewing those rosters of forty years ago can still produce chills among some "veteran" fans. The Cleveland Browns had the confidence and composure of their coach Paul Brown. They did not have to be told they were winners.

    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 28, No. 2 (2006) WHEN HAVING A BETTER RECORD DIDN'T MEAN HOME FIELD ADVANTAGE, Part Two By Andy Piascik With the NFL-AFL merger in 1966 and the advent of the Super Bowl, pro football's postseason began to grow larger. Neither the NFL or AFL addressed the long-standing problem of how better to determine the home team in their respective Championship Games, however. In fact, almost another decade would go by until necessary changes were made. Instead, both leagues continued with the rotation system that had ruled pro football's postseason since 1933. And as happened so many times previously, the teams that finished with the best regular season record in both leagues in 1966, the Packers and the Chiefs, had to go on the road in the title games. Bucking the odds clearly established over the previous 33 years, both won. Even when the NFL realigned in 1967 and enlarged the playoffs, the same system was left intact. Again, evidence that something was amiss was immediately apparent. That year, the Rams finished 11-1-2 and won the Coastal Division of the Western Conference on the basis of a head to head tie-breaker over the Colts, who also finished 11-1-2. In the West's Central Division, meanwhile, the Packers finished first at 9-4-1. Despite their superior record and even though they had beaten Green Bay in their regular season meeting, the Rams had to travel to Wisconsin to play the Western Conference Championship Game. After beating the Packers two weeks earlier in Los Angeles, the Rams lost and went home while the Packers went on to win the Super Bowl.

  • Ralph Felton
    Professional Football Researchers Association www.profootballresearchers.com Ralph Felton This article is by Budd Bailey The phrase “There’s no place like home” is part of American culture because of its use as the final line of the classic movie, “The Wizard of Oz.” Ralph “Rass” Felton certainly believed in that principle, based on how he lived his life. The only interruption in his connection to his hometown came because of football. Once that was done, though, Felton went back where he started to live happily ever after. Ralph Dwain Felton was born on May 21, 1932, in the small town of Midway, Pennsylvania. It had 913 people in it in 2010 and was located west of Pittsburgh. This raises the question, Midway is midway of what? It’s the halfway point of a rail line between Pittsburgh and Steubenville, Ohio. Midway once had its own high school. Ralph has to rank second out of two on the list of famous football graduates from the town. Dick Haley, a player (1959-1964) and a front office executive who is considered one of the great talent scouts in the sport’s history, probably gets top billing for fame. But Felton did quite well for himself too. Ralph was part of a good-sized family. Father Harry and Mother Mary Anna – both of whom were born in Midway - had seven children in all. Ralph’s grandfather William was born in England in 1862 and arrived in the United States in 1885. Grandmother Ann took a similar route. Perhaps their families headed to Western Pennsylvania to find work, and stayed there for the rest of their lives.
