A FLASH OF FINLAND´S SPORTS HISTORY Sport was associated with values, defending oneÕs own country, with Finnish culture and an incentive for increasing the level of education. In spite of that sport gained acceptability, and was believed to improve the quality of life thanks to the efforts of priests, teachers and other educators. In 1919 the sports organisation split politically into two, but during the Winter war in 1939-40 all the Finnish athletes were on the same side. www.mrl.edu.hel.fi /eu/suomikuva/FLASHOFFINLAND.htm   (1046 words)

Sam Barry - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06) Barry was also a valued part of the USC football teams which claimed national championships in 1931, 1932 and 1939, as well as seven PCC titles and five Rose Bowl victories. Tragically, it was while scouting a USC opponent that he died; attending a University of California football game on September 23, 1950, he suffered a heart attack while climbing the hill to Memorial Stadium in Berkeley, and died before reaching the hospital. Barry was also nationally renowned as an innovator – he was the person most responsible for the elimination of the center jump after every free throw and basket in basketball, a move which resulted in a much faster-paced game; and he was also behind the move to create the center line and 10-second rule. www.kernersville.us /project/wikipedia/index.php/Sam_Barry   (2063 words)

1931 V-16 Cadillac sports big headlamps, long hood (phillyBurbs.com) | Classic cars One of those early V-16 Cadillacs was a sporty 1931 Detroit-built model: An 18-foot-long convertible coupe fitted out with a rumble seat and not one, but two, golf bag doors -- one on each side. From day one, in 1931, that particular Cadillac evidently received kid glove treatment. George quickly insured the 6-foot, 1-inch-tall Cadillac rumble seat convertible and arranged to have it trucked in an enclosed van to his home in Haymarket, Va. The history of the car is somewhat elusive, but George has learned that it was sold new in Minneapolis in April 1931. www.phillyburbs.com /pb-dyn/news/250-03032004-257417.html   (695 words)
