  • California Dreamin'
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 6, Nos. 7 & 8 (1984) California Dreamin’ West Coast Pros in the 1930s By Bob Gill, in association with Tod Maher Back in the days when major-league football did not exist west of the Mississippi, the Pacific Coast Pro Football League of the 1940s paved the way for the coming West Coast franchises in the NFL and AAFC. But even before that, all through the 1930s a series of abortive leagues and independent teams laid the foundation in California for the ultimately successful Pacific Coast league. Most notable, of course, were the achievements of the Los Angeles Bulldogs, who from 1936-38 fielded a team capable of competing with NFL clubs. But even on a slightly lower level, California pro football in the ‘30s was, if not thriving, at least hanging in there, keeping the doors open until the public was ready to welcome its product. For the first few years of that decade, pro football on the West Coast consisted solely of post-season barnstorming by NFL teams like Ernie Nevers’ Chicago Cardinals. But 1934 saw the appearance of the fledgling Pacific Coast Pro Football league; and though the circuit didn’t last long, at least its choice of a name proved ultimately enduring. The league featured six teams, four clustered around Los Angeles, the other two from the San Francisco area. Its original ambitious schedule called for a ten-game season beginning Sept. 23 and ending Dec. 30. Most notable may have been the financial arrangements, with players receiving no salaries; instead, after each game, members of the winning team were to receive $75 apiece, those on the losing club $50.

  • Dimaggio's Other Streak
    General Admission DiMaggio’s Other Streak by S. Derby Gisclair Member, Society for American Baseball Research In 1933, Joe DiMaggio was an 18-year old rookie playing for his hometown San Francisco Seals in the Class AA Pacific Coast League (PCL). An unknown who had been playing semi-pro ball two years earlier as a newsboy, his name was often misspelled in the press of the day as De Maggio, even after he broke the PCL record for hitting safely in consecutive games set in 1915 by Jack Ness. It wasn’t until Seals owner and PCL vice-president Charley Graham was making arrangements to have DiMaggio’s name engraved on a gold watch presented to him for breaking the record that the question arose. After all, Joe’s older brother Vince, a former Seal who was then playing with the Hollywood Stars, spelled his name DiMaggio. Joe had actually played 3 games at shortstop with the Seals at the end of the 1932 season and had only been invited to spring training in 1933 after his brother Vince argued his case to manager Lefty O’Doul. It worked out well for Joe, who the team signed, but not so well for Vince, who the team released. Luckily for DiMaggio and for the fans in San Francisco, O’Doul moved him from shortstop to right field. DiMaggio was very erratic, always overthrowing the first baseman. His throwing arm was better suited to an outfielder and he was a pretty fair hitter. No one had any idea of what was to come.

  • California Winter League Standings
    California Winter League Standings The California Winter League was integrated during the 1910-11 season when Rube Foster brought the Leland Giants to the West Coast to play the winter league season. The following California Winter League standings were compiled by William McNeil for his book The California Winter League (McFarland Publishing). In his book, McNeil indicates that newspaper coverage was not always very good and that numerous game accounts are missing for each season, therefore, it is important to note that most of the season standings are most likely not complete. An asterisk by a team’s name indicates it was a black team. California Winter League (1910-11) Team Won Lost Ties Pct. McCormicks 12 5 1 .706 San Diego 7 4 0 .636 * Lincoln Giants 10 7 2 .588 Doyles 2 14 1 .125 California Winter League (1911-12) The presence of Rube Foster’s Lincoln Giants team in the California Winter League during the 1910-11 season raised the quality of play in the league, attracted a higher caliber of ball player (Major and Minor League players) to the white teams, increased the fan base and significantly increased attendance at the league games. When no black team joined the league for the 1911-12 season, the California Winter League reverted back to a semi-professional league for the season. Teams that played in the California Winter League for the 1911-12 season were: Fillmore, Harris & Frank, Henry & Cornett, Jeffries, Oxnard, Pomona, San Bernadino and Ventura. It is important to note that in addition to the California Winter League there were several other leagues that played baseball in California during the winter of 1911-12.

The Cor- September 26, 1954 sairs enter their Sunday afternoon game with the Brooklyn Ebbetts Field, Brooklyn, N.Y. Dodgers a full 43 games behind the National League champion New York Giants. Mired in a 2-for-25 slump with only one extra base hit in his pre- vious nine games, Allie begins the season finale against Dodg- ers’ rookie sensation Karl Spooner with a .201 batting average. Allie is hitless in four at bats against Spooner when he flies out to left fielder Sandy Amoros in the eighth inning in what turns out to be his final at bat as a major leaguer. The F7 drops his batting average for the season and his career to .199 (.19856 to be exact). A hit in any one of his four at bats that afternoon would have enabled Allie to finish above the .200 mark. The Statesville, North Carolina, native opens the season in a slump and pretty much stays there the entire summer. Allie fin- ishes April with only eight hits in 49 at bats for a .163 average. On May 4, Allie is hitting only .161, and has committed five errors at shortstop when he is benched in favor of 28-year- old WWII veteran Dick Cole. Allie returns to the starting line two weeks later and promptly goes 5-for-12 lifting his average to an even .200.

  • The History of CBS Hollywood Television Studios
    1 The History of CBS Hollywood Television Studios By Bobby Ellerbee and Eyes Of A Generation.com Preface and Acknowledgement This is a unique look at the events that preceded the need for CBS television studios in Hollywood and, as in New York, the radio division is leading the way. This project is somewhat different than the prior reports on the New York studios of CBS and NBC, for two reasons. The first reason is that in that in those reports, television was brand new and being developed through the mechanical function to an electronic phenomenon. Most of that work occurred in and around their headquarters in New York. In this case, both CBS and NBC are at the mercy of geological and technological developments outside their own abilities…namely the Rocky Mountains and AT&T. The second reason has to do with the success of the network’s own stars. Their popularity on radio soon translated to public demand once “talking pictures” became possible. That led many New York based radio stars to Hollywood and, in a way, Mohammed had to come to the mountain. This story is told to the best of our abilities, as a great deal of the information on these facilities is now gone…like so many of the men and women who worked there. I’ve told this as concisely as possible, but some elements are dependent on the memories of those who were there many years ago, and from conclusions drawn from research. If you can add to this with facts or photos, please contact me as this is an ongoing project.
