Abstract:
Abstract The historical memory of Theodore Roosevelt as an athlete and as a builder of America’s modern sporting landscape is an enduring one. Scholars and lay historians alike have often recounted Roosevelt’s athletic feats. And indeed many connections do exist. The National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) links Roosevelt to its earliest days. Fans of the Army-Navy football game tout Roosevelt as a forefather. Journalists covering Roosevelt’s time in the White House have left behind dozens of stories describing the president’s wrestling, hiking, sparring, and tennis matches. Despite these connections (and others), however, the broadly accepted historical memory is imprecise—at times exaggerating Roosevelt’s impact on the sporting world and at other times failing to appreciate the complexity and contradictions inherent in Roosevelt’s “athletic doctrine.” This article begins to remedy that imprecision by examining the historiography and historical memory of Roosevelt the athlete and identifying the tenets of Roosevelt’s athletic doctrine. Then, and most significantly, the study examines several examples of Roosevelt’s limited influence over the development of modern sporting culture in the United States. The goal of the study is not to knock Roosevelt from his pedestal within U.S. sports history but rather to reconsider the intricacies of Roosevelt’s athletic biography and to recalibrate our understanding of Roosevelt’s influence over sporting culture.

Abstract:
During the 1992 presidential contest, the press and pundits alike characterized the challenge posed by H. Ross Perot and the political organization he created, United We Stand America, as the most significant assault on the two-party system since Theodore Roosevelt's Bull Moose Campaign. In one sense, this comparison is more penetrating than these observers imagined, for the impressive showing of Perot was emblematic of the candidate-centered, plebiscitary electoral politics that Roosevelt and the Progressive party championed in 1912. Given that Perot ran without partisan attachments and refused to cede authority to the rank and file of a new reform movement, however, the allusion has proven to be as ephemeral as the public opinion polls it relies on. The Progressive party was born during the 1912 election as more than an aegis for Roosevelt's ample desire for power; it embodied the aspirations of reformers whose quest for a vehicle of political, social, and industrial transformation was at least a dozen years old.

Abstract:
Ancient Rome is a powerful metaphor in the western imagination. It is very much alive today. The Roman Republic inspires images of democracy and the empire is the very epitome of decadence. The collapse of this, the greatest of empires, is a parable. The Progressive Era opened with overt imperial ambitions and ended with the collapse of Woodrow Wilson's plans for a Pax Americana. Throughout this period, the symbol of Rome was explicitly used to justify or condemn expansion, warn of the dangers of immigration and commercialization, attack America's enemies, and praise the nation's allies. To figures as diverse as Kaiser Wilhelm II, Henry Adams, and Theodore Roosevelt, Rome was both a model and a warning. Politicians, historians and other commentators saw America as heir to the Roman legacy. Race theorizers claimed that Americans were either the modern Romans or the descendants of the Barbarians—promoters of ordered modernity or champions of individual democracy.

Abstract Abstract 4396 Thromboprophylaxis in women with recurrent pregnancy loss and thrombophilia undergoing fertility treatments: an observational study. Background Several phase II studies have suggested a benefit of thromboprophylaxis in pregnant women with histories of recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) with and without thrombophilia. Two recent phase III studies (ALIFE, SPIN) showed no benefit of thromboprophylaxis in women with RPL, but they were not designed to study women with thrombophilia or with 3 or more miscarriages. In addition, plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) has been linked to RPL, but there are limited data on the use of thromboprophylaxis in pregnant women with PAI-1 and RPL. A mechanism of unexplained RPL is thought to be placental thrombosis. The patients with thrombophilia who undergo assisted reproduction procedures might be at an increased risk of thrombosis due to multiple gestations, ovarian hyperstimulation and hyperestrogenemia. These could contribute to fetal loss via placental thrombosis. There are limited data on the outcome of pregnant women with histories of RPL treated with assisted reproduction and thromboprophylaxis. Methods We performed a retrospective review of 31 cases of women of age 20 to 42 that were referred to the Hematology Department at Roosevelt Hospital over the period of five years (between April 2005 and March 2010) for an evaluation prior to undergoing fertility treatment. Aspirin 81 mg daily prior to in vitro fertilization and enoxaparin 40 mg daily upon confirmation of pregnancy or following embryo transfer was recommended for the majority of patients. Aspirin and enoxaparin were recommended for 21 patients; aspirin alone for 5; enoxaparin alone for 4; and no therapy for 1. Baseline Characteristics of the Patients Results Fifteen out of 31 patients took aspirin and enoxaparin; 9, aspirin alone; 4, enoxaparin alone; and 3, no treatment. Sixteen patients had assisted reproduction with in vitro fertilization or intrauterine insemination; 4 received ovulation induction medications; 7 had natural pregnancies; 2 patients had pregnancies by unknown means. Twenty-five patients (81%) conceived; 13 (42%) had term deliveries; and 1(<1%) had a pre-term delivery at 31 weeks. Five patients (16%) were pregnant at last follow-up. Seven patients (22%) miscarried. Six patients (19%) did not conceive. Conclusion Thromboprophylaxis was associated with a high pregnancy rate and a high live birth rate in women with RPL, many with thrombophilia including PAI-1, presenting for fertility treatment. Disclosures: No relevant conflicts of interest to declare.

Abstract:
This chapter begins by exploring Roosevelt’s four years at Harvard College. The death of his father in 1878 prompted extended religious musings and the clearest evidence of youthful evangelical faith. Roosevelt married Alice Lee in 1880 and launched his political career in 1881. As a state assemblyman, Roosevelt advocated for reforms in economic and social life. The tragic death of Alice Lee and Martha Roosevelt on the same day in 1884 drove Roosevelt to the Dakota Badlands, where he became a rancher. In these years Roosevelt said much less about personal faith, a marked contrast from his upbringing. The chapter ends with his engagement to Edith Carow in 1886.

Abstract:
During the Great Depression, as Terrell campaigned for the Herbert Hoover and the Republican National Committee (RNC), Terrell found it increasingly difficult to gain support for the Party of Lincoln among black voters. As he campaigned by a second term, Franklin Delano Roosevelt and, especially, First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt, were gaining the trust of more African American voters as they saw some relief from New Deal policies. Several black Republican women joined the Democratic Party, including Mary McLeod Bethune, who became a member of FDR’s administration. Terrell’s political loyalties during the 1930s were complicated and often contradictory. She joined Alice Paul and the National Woman’s Party, lobbying Congress for the Equal Rights Amendment (ERA). Terrell worked, too, with the Communist Party-affiliated International Labor Defense to help free the Scottsboro Nine. Yet she remained committed to the GOP. Her partisan politics even momentarily intersected with those of white Republicans.

Abstract:
Two deaths occur in American football on November 25. Henry MacCracken, chancellor of New York University, where one of the fatal injuries occurred, invites the nineteen colleges NYU has played since 1895 to a conference on December 8, aiming to abolish or at least reform American football. Camp persuades the rules committee to meet December 9, the day after the MacCracken conference, and develops a plan for Yale’s position during that meeting. While Camp is out of town, Alice communicates the plan to Yale’s President Hadley, who summarizes it in a memo and apparently approves. Roosevelt meets with Harvard’s coach and appears supportive of unspecified actions being taken at Harvard (possibly, as later events suggest, proposals being developed by Harvard’s special committee).

Abstract:
Abstract Chapter 5 explores the tide of forces swelling against the bill. The justices astonished many when they delivered two additional decisions in the administration’s favor upholding the National Labor Relations Act and Social Security. Everyone agreed that something momentous had happened, though not about whether the court had changed course under political pressure or whether Roosevelt still needed his bill. Then in a move arranged with the bill’s Senate opponents, one of FDR’s nemeses on the court declared he was retiring at term’s end, a gesture intended to placate the president by giving him an additional seat to fill. At the same time, the Senate Judiciary Committee recommended the bill’s rejection. Talk of a face-saving compromise in the form of two additional justices increased among the bill’s supporters and foes alike. But Roosevelt was not yet ready to declare he had won and retreat. He refused to bargain.
