  • “From My Balcony”
    1 “FROM MY BALCONY” By Helga Szmuk Translation of the original in Portuguese by Marcia Lizia Barry (USA) Oct, 2006 2 Introduction Many of my friends and my sons, have been for a long time, telling me to write my memories. I finally decided to take their advice. Why not? After all, they are very dear to me. I took my time though, trying to gather so many deeds of my crazy life of tribulation, which was not very easy considering I am in my 80's. As soon as I had finished the first couple of chapters, I asked them to correct my Portuguese errors. However, not one of them volunteered. Nevertheless, I understand. I know how tedious the work can be. My English students, or even my astronomer friends, often ask me to correct their English texts. It is pure suffering. I would rather write the articles all over again (which is handiwork) than correct what is completely wrong. The same applies to my Portuguese; someone else would have to re-write my texts I am sure. My great new friend, Bob Sharp, never told me I should write my memories. Then I sent him a few pages to read and see what he thought of it. Being a Journalist, writing and analyzing texts is what he does every day. He made the corrections in record time and offered to work on the entire book. We met in strange circunstances and at the same time humorous. I wrote to the Newspaper, more specifically to the Department in charge of taking readers' complaints, about the terrible habit of smoking in public places, like Shopping Malls.

Durante el siglo xx, el principal referente del movimiento monárquico Action française repre- sentó para ciertos círculos nacionalistas argentinos una fuente de recetas para interpretar e in- tervenir en el escenario político local. Tras una primera recepción en las décadas iniciales de dicho siglo, luego de su muerte fue recuperado en un renovado clima de ideas donde el catálogo de lecturas del universo naciona- lista se actualizó al calor de la guerra fría y el posperonismo. Es dicho momento el que nos interesa analizar aquí. Nuestra puerta de entrada será el aniversario de su desaparición física celebrado en 1972. La “Comisión Argentina de Homenaje a Charles Maurras en el xx aniversario de su muerte”, encargada de organizar las actividades, contó con la participación de un conjunto de figuras cuyas trayectorias mostraban heterogéneos recorridos y, para la época, apuestas políticas di- vergentes.

Havia também o incômodo da presença de vizinhos indesejáveis, principalmente formados por mestiços. Aproveitando-se das circunstâncias da ascensão de Perón à presidência e dos acordos secretos com a Alemanha nazista, os líderes da época pintaram uma das páginas mais vergonhosas da história da Argentina, ainda obscura e relegada aos bastidores. Este artigo tem o objetivo de analisar os assuntos discorridos na obra do jornalista Uki Goñi e conduzir os leitores à reflexão a respeito dos temas abordados no texto. Palavras-chave: Política, história, Argentina, nazismo, antissemitismo, catolicismo. Abstract: During decades the Argentine elite has conditionated the nation to accept a position of inner intolerance with those not defined as white and Catholics. Also, there was the trouble of the presence of undesirable neighbors, mainly constituted by half-breeds. Taking advantage of the circumstances of Perón ascension to the presidency and of secret agreement with the Nazi Germany, leaders of that time painted one of the most shameful pages of argentine history, yet obscure and relegated to backstage. This essay aims at analyzing the subjects developed in the work of the journalist Uki Goñi and to lead the readers to the reflection concerning the themes addressed in the text.

FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/theifra 100 Years Ago Today, Notre Dame’s First Trip to West Point Made Football History By Jim Lefebvre [www.CoachForANation.com] On the afternoon of November 1, 1913, a pair of football teams representing all- male institutions of higher learning met on the Cullum Hall field at the United States Military Academy in West Point, New York. On that day, it is said, football changed forever. For 18 students from the University of Notre Dame, a small Catholic college in northern Indiana, the trip began two days earlier, when they boarded a day coach in downtown South Bend, headed East on the longest football trek ever attempted at a school that began playing the game 25 years earlier. The captain of the Notre Dame squad, 25-year-old Knute Kenneth Rockne, reflected on his journey of the previous two decades. As a five-year-old, he was a new immigrant from Norway, learning English at the spanking new Brentano Elementary School in an area recently annexed to Chicago. Now, he stood at the very heart of American pride – ready to take on the accomplished young men to represent an entire nation on the playing field.

  • When Notre Dame Won the Rockford City Championship
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 7, No. 6 (1985) WHEN NOTRE DAME WON THE ROCKFORD CITY CHAMPIONSHIP By Emil Klosinski In the infant pre-NFL days of pro football, the fiercest rivalries were usually between two good teams in an immediate local area or even within a single city. One such rivalry in Rockford, Illinois, spawned an annual three-game series between the Grands and the A.A.C. teams. In 1916, the first such series saw the Grands lose to the Rockford "Amateur" Athletic Club. Although the A.A.C. had indeed started as an amateur organization at the turn of the century, by 1916 the club's athletic teams sported many paid athletes. The most unusual and significant series for the city championship occurred in 1919. The first game of the series was a hard-fought contest It took a long pass from George Kitteringham to end T. Redin in the waning moments to produce a 6-0 victory for the Grands. The second game was a "must" for the A.A.C., and rumors spread that they were going to "load up" for the contest. It was known that A.A.C. coach Tony Haines had contacted several stars of other pro teams. The names most mentioned were Don Oliver, star of the Chicago's Racine Cardinals; Walde, formerly of Purdue, playing for the Ft. Wayne Friars; and Stallins of Rock Island. Also in the rumor mill were a star from the Peoria Tractors and the Falcon brothers from the Hammond Bobcats. Beside being quarterback for the Grands, George Kitteringham was also coach and club president.
