  • University Microfilms International 300 N
    INFORMATION TO USERS This was produced from a copy of a document sent to us for microfilming. 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 material submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or notations 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 through an image and duplicating adjacent pages to assure you of complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a round black mark it is an indication that the film inspector noticed either blurred copy because of movement during exposure, or duplicate copy. Unless we meant to delete copyrighted materials that should not have been filmed, you will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., is part of the material being photo­ graphed the photographer has followed a definite method in “sectioning” the material. It is customary to begin filming at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. If necessary, sectioning is continued again—beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. For any illustrations that cannot be reproduced satisfactorily by xerography, photographic prints can be purchased at additional cost and tipped into your xerographic copy.

Globalization; Historical Background; National Standards Project in Economics; *Professional Sports; *Sport Management ABSTRACT This teacher's guide presents instructional materials which examine issues in professional sports for students in high school economics and social studies classes. The issues include how the pro sports market evolved; how leagues gained market power; why athletes earn as much as they do; what are the sources of pro sports revenues; why tickets cost so much; why there is such a high level of economic conflict in modern pro sports; and the globalization of pro sports. The teacher's guide, illustrated with vintage photographs, is divided into nine innings (as in baseball) or lessons. It uses baseball as a case study in professional sports to provide historical background information about the evolution of professional sports teams. The guide states that the instructional materials support 14 of the 20 voluntary national content standards for economics. A standards grid follows the lessons. "The Sports Page" section discusses baseball, basketball, football, and hockey.

  • Spalding's Base Ball Guide, and Official League Book for ... : a Complete Hand Book of the National Game of Base Ball
    Spalding’s Trade Marked Base Balls. Our line of Base Balls is now so well known to the trade, and they are so thoroughly appreciated by the base ball players of the country, that it see ns almost unnecessary to call special attention to their superior merits, Spalding’s League Ball, hav- ing stood the severe test of the National League for the last seven years, and having again been adopted as the official ball of that leading organization for 1886, as well as most of the other prominent associations, gives it a reputation and sale une- qualed by any other ball on the market. It is made of the very best material, in accordance with the latest League require- ments, and with every League Ball sold is given a guarantee that it will stand a full game without ripping or losing its shape. Beware of cheap imitationsj no League Ball is genuine without our trade mark on each box and ball, and the autograph of on each label. To further protect ourselves and customers from the impositions of certain unprincipled manufacturers, and for the better protection of the balls, we have this season adopted a new feature of sealing each of our trade marked balls (from the $1.50 “League Ball” to the 25c. “Boys’ Favorite”) in a separate box, and purchasers ofour goods will serve their own interest by noticing that the seals are not broken or the balls tampered with. With the general improvement made in the quality of our full line of balls, and the new and valuable feature ofputting up all our trade marked balls in separate boxes, sealed and labeled to prevent counterfeiting, together with the extremely low- price made on some of the goods, especially on the cheaper grades, we believe we are offering the best line of base balls' now on the market.
