Hinckley's Rosehill Cemetery in Need of Donations Knights to Face Mora HINCKLEY THURSDAY, JULY 22, 2021 NEWS VOL. 130 NO. 13 www.HinckleyNews.com $1.00 DOG DAYS OF SUMMER: Pets enjoying summer activities P6 Hinckley’s Rosehill Cemetery in need of donations JENNIFER YOCUM-STANS [email protected] The first verified burial at Hinckley’s Rosehill Cemetery dates back to September of 1893, a year before the Great Hinckley Fire. To date there are over 2,000 recorded burials there. Rosehill is a self-sustaining cemetery, meaning it is not owned by the city or any church. It is a tax exempt entity, run by a board whose members are strictly volunteers. Each year is a challenge to stay above water. Their only source of income comes from plot sales and donations from the public. According to Wayne Cessna, treasurer for the Cemetery Association, income from plot sales is approximately $2,000 - $3,000 annually. Twenty percent of the money from plot sales is state mandated to go into what is called a perpetual care fund. Perpetual care funds are only to be used for capital expenses such as road repairs, fencing or purchasing land. Since operating expenses exceed the income from plot sales, Rosehill depends on private donations to cover these expenses. Maintenance costs would run much higher except for the generosity of the current maintenance crew. They have given the cemetery a substantial discount on their fees. The crew can spend upwards of 400-500 hours annually JAMIE LUND I HINCKLEY NEWS for mowing and trimming.

Due to this inherent link with masculinity, American women were kept from participating in sports to protect their feminine nature. As the years passed of continuous oppression, only a small handful of women were able to fight back and make a name for themselves as prominent and successful athletes. To combat the larger issue of gender discrimination in America, a women’s movement was launched in the 1960s and 1970s.

  • Nicknames and Women Professional Baseball Players Brenda S
    Names, Vol. 38, No.4 (December) Nicknames and Women Professional Baseball Players Brenda S. Wilson and James K. Skipper, Jr. Abstract Although women in the general population tend to have fewer nicknames than men, women baseball players in the All-American Girls Baseball League, 1943-1954, were as likely as male baseball players to have public nicknames. This high percentage may be the result of women baseball players taking on the role of nicknamer, since the group in power is more likely to bestow public nicknames and more likely to bestow them on members of their own group. Public nicknames may be a reflection of the power differential between men and women in a given environment. ***** Although it is generally recognized that nicknames are an important cultural element in American society, systematic research has been sparse, and almost none of it focuses on women. In sports, nicknaming has probably been more prevalent than in other areas of American life (Blount). Professional baseball provides a rich source of data to study the use of nicknames in American society.1 Professional baseball is usually thought of as a man's activity, but in the 1940s women played in a professional league. As with men, nicknames were commonly used, and it is the objective of this report to investigate the extent of nickname use and the types of nicknames these women ball players had. The goal is to better understand the use of women's nicknames in American society. Women's Professional Baseball In 1943, Philip K. Wrigley, owner of the Chicago Cubs, created the All-American Girls Baseball League.
