  • Marcano Trillo BASEBALL ARRIVES in VENEZUELA It Is Genera
    MANNY TRILLO. AN OILFIELD BRED MAJOR LEAGUE HERO Jesús “El Indio” Marcano Trillo BASEBALL ARRIVES IN VENEZUELA It is generally accepted that baseball was first played in 1839 at Cooperstown, New York, located in the northern part of the state. Later the game crossed the borders to Canada, Mexico and the neighboring islands where leagues were started. Venezuelans students attending American schools brought the game to Caracas, the capital city and an American by the name of William Phelps, owner of a department store in 1912 to Maracaibo by then a major hub of the oil industry where many Americans resided. Baseball caught on and several ballparks were built. Around the same time Venezuelan players began playing in the leagues in Mexico, Cuba and Puerto Rico. In 1939 a Venezuelan pitcher Alex Carrasquel became the first native to play major league baseball for the Washington Senators. In 1950 his nephew Chico Carrasquel became a star with the Chicago White Sox., in 1956 he was replaced by Luis Aparicio, so far the only Venezuelan to reach the Baseball Hall of Fame. Back in 1941 an important event highlighted Venezuela baseball when the National team won the World Amateur Championship in Havana beating Cuba in the final game. Upon their return home the players were welcomed as heroes at the Caracas seaport and thus baseball became Venezuela's unquestionable main sport. Years later then many Venezuelans have been active stars in most of the MLB teams. Besides Aparicio names like Vizquel, Johann Santana, Galarraga, Cabrera, Altuve and Trillo, the subject of this story.

    SITCOMS AND SUBURBIA: THE ROLE OF NETWORK TELEVISION IN THE DE-URBANIZATION OF THE U.S., 1949-1991 By MICHAEL RAY FITZGERALD A THESIS PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS IN MASS COMMUNICATIONS UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 2007 1 © 2007 Michael Ray Fitzgerald 2 To my wife, Susan, whose support and encouragement made this work possible. 3 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I would like to thank my adviser and chair, Bernell Tripp, for walking me through the minefield, so to speak. I am so grateful that she introduced me to historical methods, because I was beginning to become dissatisfied with the limitations of quantitative research. What is more, she was fun to work with, and her offhand knowledge of television is astounding. I am especially grateful to my other committee members, Johanna Cleary and Julian Williams, for being more concerned with helping me improve my work than simply making me follow the rules. Dr. Cleary encouraged me to clarify my theoretical basis (even though historical studies are generally non theory-driven), and the result may be the most important section of my study. I also wish to thank Lynda Lee Kaid, who taught me the basics of content analysis and made the very valuable suggestion that a time shift be imposed on my data, which turned out to be the equivalent of shining a light on my findings. I would most of all like to thank my wife, Susan Allen, for lending moral and material support while I concentrated on graduate school and my mother, for her television expertise and for teaching me to be skeptical.

  • The Old-Time Radio Era, Sometimes Referred to As the Golden Age of Radio, Was an Era of Radio
    by Mike Prero The old-time radio era, sometimes referred to as the Golden Age of Radio, was an era of radio continued on p.3 programming in the United States during which radio was the dominant electronic home entertainment medium. It began with the birth of commercial radio broadcasting in the early 1920s and lasted until the 1950s, when television superseded radio as the medium of choice for scripted programming. The last few scripted radio dramas and full-service radio stations ended in 1962. During this period radio was the only broadcast medium, and people regularly tuned into their favorite radio programs, and families gathered to listen to the home radio in the evening. According to a 1947 C. E. Hooper survey, 82 out of 100 Americans were found to be radio listeners. A variety of new entertainment formats and genres were created for the new medium, many of which later migrated to television: radio plays, mys- tery serials, soap operas, quiz shows, talent shows, variety hours, situation comedies, play-by-play sports, children's shows, cooking shows. Since this era, radio programming has shifted to a more nar- row format of news, talk, sports and music. The broadcasts of live drama, comedy, music and news that characterize the Golden Age of Radio had a precedent in the Théâtrophone, commercially introduced in Paris in 1890 and available as late as 1932. It allowed subscribers to eavesdrop on live stage performances and hear news reports by means of a network of telephone lines. The development of radio eliminated the wires and subscription charges from this concept.
