  • Negro League Teams
    From the Negro Leagues to the Major Leagues: How and Why Major League Baseball Integrated and the Impact of Racial Integration on Three Negro League Teams. Christopher Frakes Advisor: Dr. Jerome Gillen Thesis submitted to the Honors Program, Saint Peter's College March 28, 2011 Christopher Frakes Table of Contents Chapter 1: Introduction 3 Chapter 2: Kansas City Monarchs 6 Chapter 3: Homestead Grays 15 Chapter 4: Birmingham Black Barons 24 Chapter 5: Integration 29 Chapter 6: Conclusion 37 Appendix I: Players that played both Negro and Major Leagues 41 Appendix II: Timeline for Integration 45 Bibliography: 47 2 Chapter 1: Introduction From the late 19th century until 1947, Major League Baseball (MLB, the Majors, the Show or the Big Show) was segregated. During those years, African Americans played in the Negro Leagues and were not allowed to play in either the MLB or the minor league affiliates of the Major League teams (the Minor Leagues). The Negro Leagues existed as a separate entity from the Major Leagues and though structured similarly to MLB, the leagues were not equal. The objective of my thesis is to cover how and why MLB integrated and the impact of MLB’s racial integration on three prominent Negro League teams. The thesis will begin with a review of the three Negro League teams that produced the most future Major Leaguers. I will review the rise of those teams to the top of the Negro Leagues and then the decline of each team after its superstar(s) moved over to the Major Leagues when MLB integrated.

    INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to lielp you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated vwth a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large dieet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again — beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation.

  • Message from the President ______
    An E-Publication of Columbus City Council October 2007 MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT ________________________________________ As always, thank you for taking a moment to read the latest edition of Call The Roll, the electronic magazine featuring your members of Columbus City Council. Many great individuals have served on City Council throughout the years and I had the privilege of helping to honor one of them during the dedication of the new Jerry Hammond Center at 1111 East Broad Street. Jerry Hammond was a devoted public official who served on City Council from 1974 to 1990 and became the first African American to serve as Council President (1984 to 1990). Mr. Hammond was a visionary who helped build (L-R) Council President Michael C. Mentel, former Councilmember stronger neighborhoods and supported economic Ben Espy, Mayor Michael B. Coleman, and former Councilmember Les Wright announced the dedication of the new Jerry Hammond growth. One of the initiatives that he created, the Center. Neighborhood Commercial Revitalization (NCR) program, met both of those goals. The NCR program provided technical assistance, loans and matching grants, capital improvements and planning services in 15 commercial areas surrounding downtown. Many of these areas, like the Short North, are now thriving residential and commercial districts. Mr. Hammond also worked diligently to deliver crucial social services to Columbus residents while also forging strong relationships with suburban municipalities to help institute growth policies that benefited both the City of Columbus and our neighbors. While he no longer holds elected office, Mr. Hammond continues his public service. He has remained active in leadership positions for various levy initiatives and is the recipient of more than 200 community service and achievement awards.

Hardin, Council President City of Columbus, Ohio Columbus City Hall 90 West Broad Street Columbus, Ohio 43215 [email protected] Dear Mr. Hardin: We are in receipt of your letter, dated February 13, 2018, which references letters that we, the NAACP Legal Defense & Educational Fund, Inc. (LDF) wrote, dated November 17, 2017 and December 15, 2017, to the former President of Columbus’s City Council, Zach Klein, who now serves as the City’s Attorney.1 Our letters, written on behalf of the Everyday People for Positive Change (EDP), raise sincere and unabated concerns about whether the at-large electoral method for members of Columbus’s seven-member City Council violates Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act (Section 2) and other laws. Your February 13 letter indicates that the City Council has “objective data” that the current system of electing Columbus’s councilmembers complies with Section 2. On behalf of EDP, we request the data upon which the Council relies to support that assertion. Moreover, your letter contends that a majority of Columbus’s voters, including those who reside in majority-minority areas of the City, “are satisfied” with the existing system based on the election results of several unsuccessful ballot initiatives that would have established district-based voting for the City Council.

The Cor- September 26, 1954 sairs enter their Sunday afternoon game with the Brooklyn Ebbetts Field, Brooklyn, N.Y. Dodgers a full 43 games behind the National League champion New York Giants. Mired in a 2-for-25 slump with only one extra base hit in his pre- vious nine games, Allie begins the season finale against Dodg- ers’ rookie sensation Karl Spooner with a .201 batting average. Allie is hitless in four at bats against Spooner when he flies out to left fielder Sandy Amoros in the eighth inning in what turns out to be his final at bat as a major leaguer. The F7 drops his batting average for the season and his career to .199 (.19856 to be exact). A hit in any one of his four at bats that afternoon would have enabled Allie to finish above the .200 mark. The Statesville, North Carolina, native opens the season in a slump and pretty much stays there the entire summer. Allie fin- ishes April with only eight hits in 49 at bats for a .163 average. On May 4, Allie is hitting only .161, and has committed five errors at shortstop when he is benched in favor of 28-year- old WWII veteran Dick Cole. Allie returns to the starting line two weeks later and promptly goes 5-for-12 lifting his average to an even .200.

  • 1. Who Was the First Black Player for the Pirates? D. Curt Roberts Major
    1. Who was the first black player for the Pirates? D. Curt Roberts Major League Baseball recognizes Curt Roberts as the Pirates' first black player; however, Carlos Bernier of Puerto Rico, also a black man, debuted on April 22, 1953. 2. The Pirates played in the 1903 World Series which was the first modern World Series to be played in Major League Baseball. Who was their opponent? C. Boston Americans In 1903, Boston participated in the first modern World Series, going up against the Pittsburgh Pirates. The Pirates were heavily favored as they had won the NL pennant by six and a half games. Aided by the modified chants of "Tessie" by the Royal Rooters fan club and by its stronger pitching staff, the Americans managed to overcome the odds, and win the best-of-nine series five games to three. 3. What was the original name of the Pirates? B. Pittsburgh Alleghenies The Alleghenies entered the National League on April 30, 1887 with their first game at Recreation Park, located at the corners of Grant and Pennsylvania Avenues along the Fort Wayne railroad tracks on the North Side. In 1890 the Alleghenies were renamed the Pittsburgh Pirates after "pirating" second baseman Louis Bierbauer away from the Philadelphia Athletics American Association team. 4. What year did Roberto Clemente make his debut with the Pirates? A. 1955 He debuted in the first game of a double-header against the Brooklyn Dodgers on April 17, 1955, wearing the uniform number 21. 5. How many homes have the Pirates had since 1887? B.
