Dear Readers, bringing official I am pleased to continue the tradition of greetings to the readers of Sigma Signs on behalf of the faculty and staff of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. During the more than thirty years of my association with this University as a student, faculty member, and administrator, I have had the pri- vilege of observing the exceptional quality of the Division of Rehabilitation-Education Services and the continued expansion of opportunities for disabled students. Delta Sigma Omicron has played a key role on this campus for many years in the provision of positive, constructive, and suppor- tive opportunities and activities for our students. I salute the many accomplishments of Delta Sigma Omicron and look forward to working with that organization in continued service to this campus in the years to come.

Valentine agreed to terms on a two-year contract with club options for 2014 and 2015. No further terms were disclosed. The announcement was made by Executive Vice President/General Manager Ben Cherington. “We are thrilled to welcome Bobby as the manager of the Red Sox, and I’m eager to begin working closely with him in our preparations for the 2012 season,” said Cherington. “He is one of the brightest baseball minds I have encountered, with a wealth of experience in the game, an unmatched passion for winning and a proven track record of success in demanding environments. In Bobby, we have the right man to lead the Red Sox.” A veteran of more than 40 years in professional baseball, Valentine has previously served parts of 15 seasons as a Major League manager with the Texas Rangers (1985-92) and New York Mets (1996-2002), compiling a 1,117-1,072 (.510) record. He ranks fourth among active managers in games and fifth in wins. The Stamford, CT native becomes the sixth Red Sox manager born in New England and the second from Connecticut, joining Meriden’s Jack Barry, who managed the club in 1917.

  • Stitution to Offer a Four-Year Course in Athletic Coaching Lead
    c3 «D o OC/D r r o SO FOREWORD HE FOLLOWING are extracts from news­ papers and letters relative to the Uni versitv of Illinois Coaching Course and some of Illinois Coaches. These are submitted to persons who mav be interested in a Course in Athletic Coaching and Physical Education that they may under­ stand how others view us. GEORGE HUFF Director, Department of Physical Education University of Illinois Urbana, Illinois Co; *« CUreoce L W THE DAILY BULLETIN Bloomington, III. THURSDAY, JULY 24, 1919 HE University of Illinois has the distinction of being the first in­ stitution to offer a four-year course in athletic coaching lead­ ing to a degree, and a large num­ ber of Central Illinois boys are considering entering the new school in Sep­ tember. The school opens Sept. 22 Most coaches, thus far, have been educated to be doctors, lawyers, or engineers, for in­ stance. Coaching as a life work was often a stop-gap or an afterthought. Beyond their own experience in athletics they have been self-taught as coaches. But the day of the self-made coach, it is predicted, is passing. Few colleges or high schools are willing to allow their teams to be practice material for would-be coaches, who plan to pick up their • training as they go along. Besides, it takes too long. The demand for trained coaches is immediate and pressing for the war has given a tremendous stimulus to athletics and physi­ cal education. What will the prospective coach study? Baseball, football, basketball, track, and field athletics, swimming, gymnastics, hygiene, training and massage, anthropometry, play­ ground management, and the organization of teams.
