Available at: https://stars.library.ucf.edu/fhq/vol39/iss3/3 Stockton: Spring Training in Florida SPRING TRAINING IN FLORIDA by J. ROY STOCKTON PRING TRAINING serves many purposes for the great American S game and business of baseball. The primary objective, of course, is to get the players into the best possible physical condi- tion for the arduous, 154-game pennant races during which the championships of the two major leagues are decided. During this conditioning process young players and others who may have been obtained in trades are inspected and tested in practice sessions, squad games, and exhibition contests. During the off-season each major league club is permitted to carry a maximum of 40 players on its roster. There are modifica- tions to this rule. For instance, returning service men may be carried for a specific period without counting as members of the 40-man squad. -

A Geographical Look at Home Runs
Academic Forum 24 2006-07 A Geographical Look at Home Runs Fred Worth, Ph.D. Professor of Mathematics and Computer Science Abstract - In this paper, we will look at career home runs for major league baseball players based on the state in which they were born. Major league baseball is known for its interesting statistics. There are multitudes of numbers and multitudes of ways of looking at the numbers. For some now-forgotten reason, I once started looking at home runs by the state of birth of the home run hitter. This chart gives home runs by state (including the District of Columbia). Consider the chart below, where “n” denotes the number of players born in that state who have hit at least one major league home run. [Note: All data comes from Lee Sinin's Sabermetric Baseball Encyclopedia .] HRs n HRs n HRs n Alabama 7985 153 Kentucky 2851 100 North Dakota 284 7 Alaska 71 5 Louisiana 4057 97 Ohio 10682 369 Arizona 876 32 Maine 262 23 Oklahoma 5090 105 Arkansas 3252 61 Maryland 4729 101 Oregon 2293 46 California 41790 894 Massachusetts 4314 217 Pennsylvania 13666 493 Colorado 414 27 Michigan 5057 149 Rhode Island 1093 30 Connecticut 1999 76 Minnesota 2505 62 South Carolina 3496 88 D.C. 600 35 Mississippi 3256 84 South Dakota 122 10 Delaware 563 18 Missouri 6882 234 Tennessee 3045 102 Florida 8984 163 Montana 198 9 Texas 11238 303 Georgia 5672 139 Nebraska 1137 46 Utah 170 11 Hawaii 202 15 Nevada 200 8 Vermont 540 17 Idaho 712 11 New Hampshire 301 20 Virginia 2624 95 Illinois 11504 393 New Jersey 3830 146 Washington 2952 68 Indiana 3601 129 New Mexico 664 9 West Virginia 1803 50 Iowa 1611 75 New York 13008 404 Wisconsin 2534 83 Kansas 1756 66 North Carolina 3507 168 Wyoming 244 6 Not surprisingly, California has both the most home runs and the most 45000 home run hitters. -
History of Barbershop
HISTORY OF BARBERSHOP By David Krause and David Wright Definition of barbershop harmony. Read: Definition of Barbershop Harmony, from the Forward of the Contest and Judging Handbook. The Purpose Of This Course. We will attempt to trace the roots and the evolution of barbershop harmony from well before its actual beginnings up to the present. We will try to answer these questions: What were the tides of history which spawned the birth of the barbershop quartet, and what environment allowed this style of music to flourish? What were its musical forerunners? What are its defining characteristics? What other types of music were fostered contemporaneously, and how did they influence the growth of quartet singing? Which styles are similar, and how are they similar? How did the term "barbershop" arise? How long did the historical era of the barbershop quartet last? What other kinds of music sprang forth from it? Why did the style eventually need preservation? How was SPEBSQSA formed, and how did it become a national movement? What other organizations have joined the cause? How have they coped with the task of preservation? Are current day efforts still on course in preserving the style? How has the style changed since the Society was formed? We will spend the next few hours contemplating and attempting to answer these questions. Overtones. As barbershoppers, we are very conscious of the "ringing" effect which complements our singing. We consider it our reward for singing well- defined pitches in tune. The fact that a tone produced by a voice or an instrument is accompanied by a whole series of pitches in addition to the fundamental one which our ear most easily detects has been known for centuries. -
