Truman Maxey was asked by him to make notes of proceedings. Guy Bellamy spoke on the need for organization and assistance in getting before pastors so as to be used for supplying pulpits on Sundays. Jimmy Ingram spoke about not being known by the younger pastors or those who have recently moved to Oklahoma. K. D. Turner talked of the need for each of us to help the other in time of illness or crisis. He also mentioned the hopefulness of preaching some. Paul Clark stated he has a big garden and a fishing pole. Earl Stark says he teaches a Sunday school class, is second best, but is a service and help to retirees. Auguie Henry said denominational men are identified with former works but still feel the urge to preach. 32 5 The Oklahoma Baptist Chronicle Necrology Motion made by Guy Bellamy, seconded by Paul Clark that Auguie Henry be president and H.

  • Prohibition's Proving Ground: Automobile Culture and Dry
    PROHIBITION’S PROVING GROUND: AUTOMOBILE CULTURE AND DRY ENFORCEMENT ON THE TOLEDO-DETROIT-WINDSOR CORRIDOR, 1913-1933 Joseph Boggs A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS May 2019 Committee: Michael Brooks, Advisor Rebecca Mancuso © 2019 Joseph Boggs All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Michael Brooks, Advisor The rapid rise of an automobile culture in the 1910s and 20s provided ordinary North Americans greater mobility, freedom, privacy, and economic opportunity. Simultaneously, the United States and Canada witnessed a surge in “dry” sentiments and laws, culminating in the passage of the 18th Amendment and various provincial acts that precluded the outright sale of alcohol to the public. In turn, enforcement of prohibition legislation became more problematic due to society’s quick embracing of the automobile and bootleggers’ willingness to utilize cars for their illegal endeavors. By closely examining the Toledo-Detroit-Windsor corridor—a region known both for its motorcar culture and rum-running reputation—during the time period of 1913-1933, it is evident why prohibition failed in this area. Dry enforcers and government officials, frequently engaging in controversial policing tactics when confronting suspected motorists, could not overcome the distinct advantages that automobiles afforded to entrepreneurial bootleggers and the organized networks of criminals who exploited the transnational nature of the region. vi TABLE OF CONTENTS Page INTRODUCTION ................................................................................................................. 1 CHAPTER I.

    AMERICAN ACADEMY IN ROME MAGAZINE SPRING/ SUMMER 2021 A Message from the Chair of the Board of Trustees It’s hard to believe it’s been over a year since the world paused. Thank you for your continued com- mitment to AAR in what I’m sure we will remember as one of society’s most challenging moments. Your time, expertise, guidance, and financial support have all been instrumental in seeing the Academy through this period. I’d also like to thank Mark Robbins and the whole team, especially those on the ground in Rome, for their incredible dedication to navigating the ups, downs, and surprises this past year has brought. Turning to today, the Academy has successfully reopened and the selection process for next year’s fellowship class is complete. AAR is in a much stronger position than I could have imagined when the full pandemic crisis became clear in March 2020. Our finances are stable and (with vaccinations) we believe that by the fall our activities will be close to fully restored. One of the many downsides of this past year has been the lack of direct connection, and we look for- ward to future gatherings in person, here and in Rome.

A name carries a reputation born out over time. It identifies a set of traits, qualities and expectations. In modern vernacular, it defines the organization’s “brand.” Proverbs states, “A good name is more desirable than great riches; to be esteemed is better than silver or gold” (Prov. 22:1). The Oklahoma Baptist University name carries a reputation for outstanding and distinctively Christian academic preparation. OBU enjoys a most excellent reputation and name. Throughout our 101-year history, OBU has developed an impressive list of names that convey immediate definitions. Jent, Raley, Angell, Agee, Bass, Strickland and Solomon are easily associated with perseverance, leadership, artistry, vision, athletic success and educational leadership. Our recently inaugurated Faculty Hall of Fame attests to some of the great names of our University. Great names carry great weight. This spring, our trustees voted to identify two of our academic colleges with great names from OBU and Oklahoma Baptist history. The Herschel H. Hobbs College of Theology and Ministry and the James E. Hurley College of Science and Mathematics are new colleges that house legendary programs. The consistent success of our graduates in theology, ministry, science, mathematics, medicine and research has carved out a brand identity for OBU in these fields. Now we have names for these colleges that link our storied success and our future achievement. From his pastorate in Oklahoma City, Dr. Hobbs built a reputation that has impacted Christendom and Southern Baptist life for more than four decades.
