KENNEY Stars and Stripes WASHINGTON— Three law- makers from South Carolina introduced legislation Friday to stop the Marine Corps from clos- ing its recruiting depot at Parris Island, S.C., in order to train new troops in a co-ed environment at another location. “I do not support and will never support closing Parris Island,” Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., said in the prepared statement is- sued Friday. The House bill, the Parris Is- land Protection Act, follows com- ments made by Marine Corps Commandant Gen. David Berger on Sept. 24 about the service con- sidering a third training location due to lack of facilities for women at its two boot camps — the Ma- rine Corps Recruit Depot at Par- ris Island and the Marine Corps Recruit Depot in San Diego. The bill would “prohibit the use of federal funds to close or realign” Parris Island, according to the joint statement. Graham will also introduce a similar bill in the Senate, accord- ing to the statement.

  • The Following Players Comprise the College Football Great Teams 2 Card Set
    COLLEGE FOOTBALL GREAT TEAMS OF THE PAST 2 SET ROSTER The following players comprise the College Football Great Teams 2 Card Set. The regular starters at each position are listed first and should be used most frequently. Realistic use of the players below will generate statistical results remarkably similar to those from real life. IMPORTANT: When a Red "K" appears in the R-column as the result on any kind of running play from scrimmage or on any return, roll the dice again, refer to the K-column, and use the number there for the result. When a player has a "K" in his R-column, he can never be used for kicking or punting. If the symbol "F-K" or "F-P" appears on a players card, it means that you use the K or P column when he recovers a fumble. Players in bold are starters. If there is a difference between the player's card and the roster sheet, always use the card information. The number in ()s after the player name is the number of cards that the player has in this set. See below for a more detailed explanation of new symbols on the cards. 1971 NEBRASKA 1971 NEBRASKA 1972 USC 1972 USC OFFENSE DEFENSE OFFENSE DEFENSE EB: Woody Cox End: John Adkins EB: Lynn Swann TA End: James Sims Johnny Rodgers (2) TA TB, OA Willie Harper Edesel Garrison Dale Mitchell Frosty Anderson Steve Manstedt John McKay Ed Powell Glen Garson TC John Hyland Dave Boulware (2) PA, KB, KOB Tackle: John Grant Tackle: Carl Johnson Tackle: Bill Janssen Chris Chaney Jeff Winans Daryl White Larry Jacobson Tackle: Steve Riley John Skiles Marvin Crenshaw John Dutton Pete Adams Glenn Byrd Al Austin LB: Jim Branch Cliff Culbreath LB: Richard Wood Guard: Keith Wortman Rich Glover Guard: Mike Ryan Monte Doris Dick Rupert Bob Terrio Allan Graf Charles Anthony Mike Beran Bruce Hauge Allan Gallaher Glen Henderson Bruce Weber Monte Johnson Booker Brown George Follett Center: Doug Dumler Pat Morell Don Morrison Ray Rodriguez John Kinsel John Peterson Mike McGirr Jim Stone ET: Jerry List CB: Jim Anderson TC Center: Dave Brown Tom Bohlinger Brent Longwell PC Joe Blahak Marty Patton CB: Charles Hinton TB.

  • The Steam Roller
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 2, No. 3 (1980) THE STEAM ROLLER by John Hogrogian The state of Rhode Island sits squarely in the shadow of Boston as far as major-league professional sports is concerned. Ocean State residents generally take a rooting interest in the Red Sox, Patriots, Celtics, and Bruins. But more than half a century ago, in 1928, Rhode Island had its own National Football League champions, the Providence Steam Roller. The story of that team is the story of an era of professional football much different from that of today. In the Roaring Twenties, the American public found a host of popular heroes in its sporting greats. Standing with Charles Lindbergh on the pedestal of unalloyed admiration were such men as baseball player Babe Ruth, boxer Jack Dempsey, and tennis player Bill Tilden. College football players also shared in this adulation, with Red Grange of Illinois, Ernie Nevers of Stanford, and the Four Horsemen of Notre Dame national figures because of their gridiron exploits. College football was an immensely popular spectator sport, with teams such as Notre Dame, Stanford, Yale, and Dartmouth drawing huge followings both in person and through the newspapers and newsreels. Professional football, in stark contrast, was struggling to survive, a neglected stepchild in the sports boom. The National Football League was entering only its ninth season in the fall of 1928, and instead of roaring crowds in huge metropolitan stadia, small, intimate audiences in mostly smaller fields viewed the league's contests. Pro football held the same place in 1928 that pro track and field holds today, a fledgling professional sport living in the shadow of a popular collegiate version.

  • An Analysis of the American Outdoor Sport Facility: Developing an Ideal Type on the Evolution of Professional Baseball and Football Structures
    AN ANALYSIS OF THE AMERICAN OUTDOOR SPORT FACILITY: DEVELOPING AN IDEAL TYPE ON THE EVOLUTION OF PROFESSIONAL BASEBALL AND FOOTBALL STRUCTURES DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Chad S. Seifried, B.S., M.Ed. * * * * * The Ohio State University 2005 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor Donna Pastore, Advisor Professor Melvin Adelman _________________________________ Professor Janet Fink Advisor College of Education Copyright by Chad Seifried 2005 ABSTRACT The purpose of this study is to analyze the physical layout of the American baseball and football professional sport facility from 1850 to present and design an ideal-type appropriate for its evolution. Specifically, this study attempts to establish a logical expansion and adaptation of Bale’s Four-Stage Ideal-type on the Evolution of the Modern English Soccer Stadium appropriate for the history of professional baseball and football and that predicts future changes in American sport facilities. In essence, it is the author’s intention to provide a more coherent and comprehensive account of the evolving professional baseball and football sport facility and where it appears to be headed. This investigation concludes eight stages exist concerning the evolution of the professional baseball and football sport facility. Stages one through four primarily appeared before the beginning of the 20th century and existed as temporary structures which were small and cheaply built. Stages five and six materialize as the first permanent professional baseball and football facilities. Stage seven surfaces as a multi-purpose facility which attempted to accommodate both professional football and baseball equally.

  • Struggling to Stay in the Black a Close Look at the Profit and Loss Sheets for a 1927 Team
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 15, No. 5 (1993) Struggling to Stay in the Black A Close Look at the Profit and Loss Sheets for a 1927 Team By Bob GIll (The information for this story came from a Providence Steam Roller cash book for 1927 donated to the Pro Football Hall of Fame by Raymond Monaco of North Providence, R.I. Monaco played with the Washington Redskins, the Cleveland Rams and the Steam Roller.) * * * * * * * * * * A few issues back, we took a detailed look at the 1940 financial story of the Providence Steam Roller, a minor league team in the American Football Association – and managed by none other than PFRA’s own Pearce Johnson (“Balancing Dollars and Sense,” Vol. XIII, No. 5). This time we’ll take a similar, though somewhat less detailed, look at another Providence season ledger, this one for 1927, one of the Steam Roller’s seasons in the NFL. In fact, as you may recall, this was one year before Providence captured the NFL championship. Coming off a 5-7-1 season in 1926, the Steam Roller had a new coach and a new star in 1927. The coach was Jimmy Conzelman, who also played as a blocking back and caught at least 34 passes, a very high total for the time. The star was tailback George “Wildcat” Wilson, an All-American from the University of Washington. He signed with Providence after spending the previous season with Los Angeles in the short-lived AFL – the Red Grange league, as it’s often called. Conzelman and Wilson were the highest-paid members of the team; each got $500 per game.
