At Bucknell, student-athletes’ academic programs are their fi rst priority, and providing a competitive Division I athletics program only advances the mission, values and residential learning goals of the university. To that end, the Department of Athletics and Recreation proactively seeks ways to assist student-athletes in their daily academic pursuits. Below are just some of the student-athlete support programs currently in place. BUCKNELL BISON LEADERSHIP ACADEMY: In 2011-12, the Department of Athletics launched the Bucknell Bison Leadership Academy. This program is designed to help student-athletes learn how to be eff ective leaders on and off the playing fi elds. The Leadership Academy features programming and instruction that bridge theory, development and real experiences in an interactive learning environment. Through this endeavor, team leaders can enhance their impact on their teammates’ and their program’s performance immediately and for years to come. FACULTY ATHLETICS REPRESENTATIVE: The faculty athletics representative (FAR) is a member of the faculty or administrative staff who is designated to represent Buck- nell in its relationships with the NCAA and the Patriot League. Bucknell’s FAR is Mitch Chernin, Professor of Biology. The FAR can enhance the student-athlete experience by promoting a balance between academics, athletics and the social lives of student-athletes, which aff ords them opportunities to enjoy a full range of collegiate experiences. SIDELINE COACH PROGRAM: This program is a truly unique initiative in Division I college athletics, and it involves the invitation of a member of the faculty, administration, staff or community by one of Bucknell’s 27 varsity teams. The participant has the opportunity to discuss the overall program with the respective coaching staff , including practice preparation and strategy for the upcoming contest. The sideline coach attends a practice session and an actual intercollegiate competition, where he/she is intro- duced to the team and gains rarely seen insight into the relationships that exist between player-coach and player-player. The purpose of the Sideline Coaches Program is to foster a better understanding by the faculty and administration of the roles played by coaches and athletes in the university’s competitive intercollegiate athletic arena. ACADEMIC ENHANCEMENT CENTER: In the Fall of 2005, the Department of Athletics opened a study/computer lab for student-athletes on the concourse level of Sojka Pavilion. The center is outfi tted with computers, a laser printer, four television monitors and a projection unit with computer, VCR and DVD player. Additionally, the

    Barney DeForge “Luckie No More” ©DiamondsintheDusk.com On a seasonably warm Friday evening in Winston-Salem’s venerable Southside May 14, 1948 Park, the homestanding Cardinals, behind the two-hit pitching of lefty Jack Southside Park Frisinger, take the measure of visiting Reidsville 5-0 in one of four Carolina (D) Winston-Salem, North Carolina League games played that day. At first glance, it seems like just another day of minor league baseball in the Tar Heel State. After all, Winston-Salem, the league’s preseason favorite, currently resides in first place with an impressive 18-7 mark while the fifth-place Luckies drop to 9-12 and a full seven games behind their hosts. And being shutout by the 20-year-old Frisinger, a rising star in the St. Louis Car- dinals farm system, comes as no surprise to Carolina League fans. Said “to be faster than Harvey Haddix,” the burgeoning Cardinals ace limits the Luckies to a pair of singles en route to securing the third of an eventual team-high 18 wins. The 6-foot-1 Kalamazoo, Michigan, native strikes out seven and walks three in the route-going effort. However, several events that take place during the game that are suspicious and, unfortunately, a harbinger of problems to come, both for DeForge and the Carolina League. First, Winston-Salem officials report to the police there is a person in the stands “making heavy bets,” giving Reidsville and two runs which meant that if the Cardinals won by three or more runs, he will win all bets placed.

  • Impartial Arbiter, New Hall of Famer O'day Was Slanted to Chicago in Personal Life
    Impartial arbiter, new Hall of Famer O’Day was slanted to Chicago in personal life By George Castle, CBM historian Monday, Dec. 17 For a man who wore an impenetrable mask of reserve behind his umpire’s headgear, Hank O’Day sure wore his heart on his sleeve when it came to his native Chicago. O’Day was serious he only allowed his few close friends to call him “Hank.” He was “Henry” to most others in his baseball trav- els as one of the greatest arbiters ever. But in a Chicago he never left as home, he could be himself. Born July 8, 1862 in Chicago as one of six children of deaf parents, O’Day always came back home and lived out his life in the Sec- ond City. He died July 2, 1935 in Chicago, and was buried in the lakefront Calvary Cemetery, just beyond the north city limits in Evanston. In between, he first played Hank O'Day in civilian clothes baseball competitively on the city’s sandlots as Cubs manager in 1914. with none other than Charles Comiskey, the founding owner of the White Sox. And in taking one of a pair of season-long breaks to manage a big-league team amid his three-decade umpiring career, O’Day was Cubs manager in 1914, two years after he piloted the Cincinnati Reds for one year. Through all of that, his greatest connection to his hometown was one of the most fa- mous calls in baseball history – the “out” ruling at second base on New York Giants rookie Fred Merkle in a play that led to the last Cubs World Series title in 1908.

  • Glenn Killinger, Service Football, and the Birth
    The Pennsylvania State University The Graduate School School of Humanities WAR SEASONS: GLENN KILLINGER, SERVICE FOOTBALL, AND THE BIRTH OF THE AMERICAN HERO IN POSTWAR AMERICAN CULTURE A Dissertation in American Studies by Todd M. Mealy © 2018 Todd M. Mealy Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy May 2018 ii This dissertation of Todd M. Mealy was reviewed and approved by the following: Charles P. Kupfer Associate Professor of American Studies Dissertation Adviser Chair of Committee Simon Bronner Distinguished Professor Emeritus of American Studies and Folklore Raffy Luquis Associate Professor of Health Education, Behavioral Science and Educaiton Program Peter Kareithi Special Member, Associate Professor of Communications, The Pennsylvania State University John Haddad Professor of American Studies and Chair, American Studies Program *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School iii ABSTRACT This dissertation examines Glenn Killinger’s career as a three-sport star at Penn State. The thrills and fascinations of his athletic exploits were chronicled by the mass media beginning in 1917 through the 1920s in a way that addressed the central themes of the mythic Great American Novel. Killinger’s personal and public life matched the cultural medley that defined the nation in the first quarter of the twentieth-century. His life plays outs as if it were a Horatio Alger novel, as the anxieties over turn-of-the- century immigration and urbanization, the uncertainty of commercializing formerly amateur sports, social unrest that challenged the status quo, and the resiliency of the individual confronting challenges of World War I, sport, and social alienation.
