Abstract:
Association football is one of the most popular sports with more than 265 million players worldwide and 209 national associations. The climax on the calendar is the FIFA World Cup, an international football competition contested by the men’s national football teams of the member nations. This championship has been held every four years since the first tournament in 1930 with exceptions in 1942 and 1946 due to World War II. Women too have a World Cup tournament that started in 1991 and is held every four years. The purpose of this commentary is to analyze the downward trend in scoring at World Cup tournaments from 1930 to 2010, with the aim of providing coaches, educators and sport scientists with possible reasons for the decline.

Abstract:
Released in three separate volumes, the publication continues the Polish museology series published for several years now and related to the losses incurred as a result of WW II within the borders of today’s Republic of Poland. The Preface to Volume I on the war losses of the Town Hall of the Main City of Gdańsk by the Director of the Museum in Gdańsk Waldemar Ossowski, contains reflections essential for the discussed issue. The three-volume series opens with the War Losses of the Town Hall of the Main City of Gdańsk (Vol. I). Briefly, the most essential facts have been highlighted in the story of its raising, and the functions of the major Town Hall interiors, both sumptuous and serving as offices, have been described: the Grand Hallway, the Grand Room called Red or Summer Room, the Small Room of the Council called Winter Room, the Grand Room of the City Council, the Treasury, and the Deposit Room. In the final months of WW II, Gdańsk lost about 80% of its most precious historic substance within the Main City. As early as in April 1945, the search for and the recovery of the dispersed cultural heritage began. War Losses of the Artus Manor and the Gdańsk Hallway in Gdańsk (Vol. 2) begins with a sepia photograph from 1879. As of October 1943 to January 1945, the following took place: dismantling together with signing and numbering of the objects, packing into wooden chests, and evacuation to several localities outside Gdańsk. It has already been ascertained that as early as in mid-June 1942, some dozen of the most precious historic monuments were evacuated from the Artus Manor, of which several items have not been recovered: late- -mediaeval paintings (Boat of the Church, Siege of Marienburg, Our Lady with Child, and Christ, Salvator Mundi), several elements from the four sets of tournament armours from the section of the Brotherhood of St Reinold, the sculpture Saturn with a Child, the sculpture group Diana’s Bath and Actaeon’s Metamorphosis, as well as some dozen elements of the décor of the Grand Hall. All these historic pieces were transferred to the village of Orle (Germ. Wordel) on the Sobieszewo Island on 16 June 1942. Only fragments of tournament armours have been recovered: they were found at various locations under the circumstances hard to clarify many years later. The most extensive war losses have been presented for the Uphagen House (Vol. 3). The majority of the gathered art works, the interior equipment and usable objects essential in the burgher’s tenement house transformed into a museum in the early 20th century have not been found, thus they have not returned to their original location.

Abstract:
The Mitropa Cup founded in 1927 was the most important professional football tournament of the interwar period. It was organized by the international Mitropa Cup committee, which was formed of leading protagonists from Central Europe such as Hugo Meisl. This Central European Cup was played out between different combinations of the leading clubs from the participating countries: Austria, Czechoslovakia, Hungary, Italy, Romania, Yugoslavia, and Switzerland. German teams did not take part in the Mitropa Cup, because the DFB did not accept professional football teams at that time. With this sport historical background the study shows in which way the Mitropa Cup (as well as other tournaments) profoundly influenced the construction of economic and social space, and how it influenced the perception of the German Mitropa company. While it has been claimed that Meisl and his comrades could build on the sponsorship of the German restaurant and sleeping car company Mitropa, the parallel investigation of railway history through primary sources and sport history proves that no such relationship has existed, and furthermore, because of an international treaty the Mitropa was not allowed to provide services beyond Germany and several defined destinations. Thus, the discursive and spacial significance of both the Mitropa Cup’s football-based definition of Central Europe, and the Mitropa company as one of the two European players in sleeping and restaurant car services (the other being the French-Belgian CIWL/ISG), forms a historical coincidence.

Abstract:
Wrestling became an interest in Poland only at the end of the 19th century. However, in the Olsztyn Province, among other reasons due to historical conditions, this was a much later development. The first propaganda fights took place only in 1950. Shortly afterwards, the national team of the Olsztyn voivodeship participated in the nationwide tournament ‘For the City Cup’. However, a professional section was only established seven years later. Then, Lt. Zenon Rydziński initiated the training process at RKS “Budowlani” Olsztyn. It resulted in subsequent numerous sports successes. In 1964, thanks to the efficiency of activists from the People’s Sports Teams, young people from the Giżycko province also wrestled. The most die-hard players then set up further sections in the cities they came from

Abstract:
After World War II, Germany was split into four occupation zones, from which two states arose in 1949: West Germany (officially called FRG) and East Germany (officially GDR). East Germany was under Soviet control until 1989. In both states, computer chess and chess computers followed interesting, but rather different paths. We give an overview of East German developments: on commercial chess computers, problem chess programs, the book of 1987, the Serfling tournaments, and correspondence chess pioneer Heinrich Burger. There exist important interrelations between topics. The starting point is a short description of the Cold War situation with its harsh economic consequences for the socialist states, including East Germany.

Abstract:
The purpose of this study was to determine if gender inequalities existed during SportsCenter's™ highlight coverage of the 2007 Wimbledon Tennis Tournament. The morning episode of the Entertainment Sports Programming Network (ESPN) television show SportsCenter™ was videotaped daily during the Wimbledon Tennis Tournament. Variables analyzed included total highlight time and average time per highlight, total number of highlights, highlights in the introduction to SportsCenter™, highlights previewed preceding commercial, when each highlight occurred, and name gender marking. Statistical significances were seen in first name only (t=2.76, p=0.05) and last name only (t=1.81, p=0.04) name gender marking and highlights occurring in second third (t=2.48, p=0.01) of SportsCenter™. Current literature supports current study's results in that male participants received quantitatively greater highlight coverage, more highlights in the second third of SportsCenter™, and were referred to by their last name while female participants were referred to by their first name.

Abstract:
In 1974 only twenty-five teams qualified for the NCAA tournament, and only one team from the major conferences. Most of the conferences chose their champions based on conference standing. And independent programs gained admission into the tournament based on their season records. But there was still intense drama. Indiana University, coached by Robert “Bobby” Knight, and the University of Michigan tied for the Big 10 title and had to have a play-off to decide who would receive the NCAA invitation. But the most drama was in the ACC, where the ACC tournament decided who would go to the NCAA tournament.

Abstract:
This chapter focuses on oriented graphs and their use to represent a sports tournament where assigning a direction to an edge represents the defeat of one team by another. It first considers the 1941 book What Is Mathematics?, co-authored by Herbert Ellis Robbins and Richard Courant, before discussing Robbins's Theorem in terms of graph theory. According to Robbins's theorem, it is possible to repair any one street and still be able to travel between any two points in the city discussed by Robbins if and only if it is possible to convert all streets of the city to one-way streets and travel (legally) between any two points. The chapter also examines the best known class of oriented graphs, the orientations of complete graphs, and their application to round robin tournaments. Finally, it describes the King Chicken Theorem and how various voting techniques can result in often surprising outcomes.

Abstract:
The 1974 NCAA Tournament demonstrated much of what was right—and wrong—with college basketball. It showcased great coaching and extraordinary athletic talent, close games and nail-biting excitement. But the twenty-five team format and the one team per conference rule excluded great programs from the “Big Dance.” The 1973-1974 season proved that Tom Scott’s call to reform the tournament was correct. In the next few years the size of the tournament would increase and more than one team from a conference would be eligible.

Abstract:
This chapter discusses golf and black militant movements in the late 1960s and 1970s, exploring how American black nationalist leaders and anticolonial movements in the Caribbean and Africa appropriated the symbolism of black golfers. Popular magazines like Jet and Ebony celebrated black players, organizations sponsored black golf tours throughout the African Diaspora, and a new generation of professionals—led by Lee Elder—more directly confronted racism in the PGA and sought access to its most exclusive enclaves. Meanwhile, the ongoing internationalization of the civil rights movement placed golf squarely within global debates over race and racial discrimination. The game’s popularity in South Africa and Rhodesia made it a target of the antiapartheid movement, especially as more African-born white professionals—like star Gary Player—traveled to play in PGA events. While fans have long been interested in Muhammad Ali’s popularity in Africa or the black protests surrounding the 1968 Mexico City Olympics, they have overlooked golf as a cite of militancy. Coinciding with Ali’s famous 1974 trip to Zaire, Elder’s trips to Africa—including his confrontations with apartheid at South African golf tournaments—and his integration of the Masters Golf Tournament in 1975 are just two examples.

This chapter discusses Gilliard's plan to build his 1957–1958 team around a group of talented sophomores that included Ben Spalding, Jewell Logan, and John Watkins. Gilliard's innovative coaching methods included having his guards wear cotton gloves in practice to improve their ball-handling skills, while his big men practiced in rubber galoshes to improve their jumping ability. The first game in Shelby County between whites and blacks occurred on November 22, 1957, when Bagdad defeated Lincoln, 47–40. Bagdad's Thurman became a popular source of information for his fellow coaches, most of whom had never played against black teams. In 1958 thirty-eight African American schools participated in twenty-nine of the sixty-four district tournaments and compiled a respectable 34–30 record while winning six district titles. Three district winners won their regional tournaments and became the first all-black teams to participate in the KHSAA “Sweet Sixteen.”

Abstract:
The membership growth of the NAIA and growing prominence of its basketball tournament gave it greater exposure, but this cut both ways when it was revealed in 1948 that the tournament excluded black players. The NAIA’s racial ban was only one of many discriminatory practices aimed at blacks in mid-century American college athletics, including the Big Ten’s unwritten prohibition of black players. Forced now to address the matter, Emil Liston and Al Duer worked to overturn the rule and make use of the NAIA as a vehicle to force racial change in Kansas City. Duer worked tirelessly to ensure that black players enjoyed the same privileges as white players and also to challenge segregation in the Kansas City hospitality industry. More than simply welcome black players, Duer also helped restructure the NAIA to welcome historically black colleges as full members while also scrupulously avoiding giving offense to existing Southern segregationist member schools. The affirmative efforts of the NAIA to confront the very real problems of scheduling, lodging, and access for black players and historically black colleges did much to win the support of those schools. It also, however, put in stark contrast the relative indifference of the NCAA to the same issues.

Abstract:
Principals and coaches from African American high schools in Kentucky began peppering the formerly all-white Kentucky High School Athletic Association (KHSAA) with questions regarding membership. Young acted quickly, and in 1956 Lincoln Institute became one of the first KHSAL members to be accepted into the KHSAA. The KHSAA state tournament had its first African American participants in March 1957, and the KHSAL ceased operations. A dozen African American schools closed after their local school boards submitted plans for integration, and their former students strengthened the teams at some of the newly integrated schools. The Lincoln basketball team faced a rebuilding year in 1955–1956 after John Cunningham and members of the 1955 state championship team graduated. Young hired Walter Gilliard as athletic director, and he succeeded Herbert Garner as head basketball coach the following year.

Abstract:
This chapter introduces Arnold Thurman, the basketball coach at all-white Bagdad High School in Shelby County. Thurman had played basketball at Berea College with African American players, and he welcomed black schools into the KHSAA. But Thurman faced resistance from the Bagdad fans and from at least one of his players. Thurman told his principal that if Bagdad were ever to achieve its goal of playing in the state tournament, it would have to play teams with African American players. Thurman became the first white coach to schedule a game with Lincoln Institute. Gilliard began constructing his team along the lines of Tennessee State, whose coach, John McLendon, favored a fast-breaking offense and a pressing defense. The integration of Kentucky's public schools progressed modestly in the 1957–1958 school year and avoided the unrest that erupted elsewhere, such as in Montgomery, Alabama, and Little Rock, Arkansas.
