MD. HEREFORD ASSOC. TOURS STATE - Visits Farms of Arthur B. Shipley, Near Sykesville –

The Maryland Hereford Association made an extensive tour of the state to visit pure bred Hereford cattle farms August 9th. A two-day affair, the tour gave cattle breeders an opportunity of visiting farms on the Eastern and Western shores of the state.

After visiting the Eastern shore, they returned to Annapolis where they spent the night. On Sat. they proceeded to the Richard C. Riggs Foxhall Farm at Catonsville.

On Saturday afternoon the caravan consisting of 27 cars and a bus arrived at 2 o'clock at the Highland View farms owned by Arthur B. Shipley.

There were a number of Western as well as Eastern states represented in the group. Mr. Richard C. Riggs, chairman of the committee, introduced Mr. Shipley who took them for a straw ride to view the fine purebred herd and pastures. Mr. Shipley has over 100 pure-breds on his farms.

H Sam Case 70 of Westminster and McDaniel College


This information came from the Westminster Road Runners Club earlier this evening… Wednesday, August 22, 2012.

The following is from McDaniel's Alumni network. Sam was one of the founders of Westminster Road Runners Club. He will be missed.

------------------------------------------------------------------

H. Samuel Case, beloved professor and coach who taught human physiology and exercise science courses at the College for nearly four decades, died August 22, 2012 at age 70 following complications from leukemia. He also served as Provost and Dean of the Faculty from 2000 to 2004.

The starting line of Sam’s career emerged by accident while he was still an undergraduate at Western Maryland College (now McDaniel). He suffered a concussion while playing football in his sophomore year and opted to assist with coaching. By the time he graduated in 1963 with a degree in physical education and biology, he had racked up three years of coaching experience. 

He taught and coached briefly at The Johns Hopkins University before his former professor, Dick Clower, brought him back as a colleague in 1965. Sam earned a master’s degree in physical education from the College in 1966, and a Ph.D. in exercise physiology from The Ohio State University in 1971. After joining the College faculty, he rose rapidly through the ranks from instructor to full professor. He is one of the few faculty to win the College’s prestigious Distinguished Teaching Award not once but twice. He also received two Fulbright nominations to the former Yugoslavia in 1988 and 1989.

On three occasions, his expertise took him to the United States Olympic Training Center in Colorado Springs, where he served as a physiologist. He held numerous offices in professional associations and served as chair of the Governor’s Advisory Committee on Physical Fitness and as associate editor of the Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research. 

Sam helped to lead curricular reform in the 1990s while developing and teaching new courses in his department. His contribution to the study of human physiology in extreme environments is highly acclaimed, including his research — often participatory research — on competitors in the Iditarod and Iditasport ultra-marathon. He ran the more than 80 miles of Alaska’s tundra in sub-zero temperatures three times within a decade. That work spurred even more important research projects inAntarctica between 1997 and 1999, funded by the National Science Foundation, which awarded him the Antarctica Service Medal. His cold weather research inspired the popular “Physiology of Extreme Environments” course.

He was a member of the Tri-Beta Biology Honorary Society and the Omicron Delta Kappa Leadership Society. He published some 58 articles on physiology and physical fitness, many co-authored with his students who accompanied him on his research expeditions.

Sam also built an outstanding career as a skilled and dedicated coach, having led the College’s wrestling team to Mason Dixon Conference Championships in 1969 and 1970. In 2001, the National Wrestling Hall of Fame recognized him with its Lifetime Service Award. That same year, he was inducted into the Carroll County Sports Hall of Fame and, in 2004, he was inducted into the Green Terror Sports Hall of Fame.

Sam was an adventurer and world traveler who always chose to push his limits. A year after his retirement in 2004, he and a college buddy completed an 18-day trek through the Mount Everest region of Nepal, climbing high enough into the mountains to risk altitude sickness. 

He gave back in large measure to both the campus and local communities. Each year, he organized the faculty hike and was instrumental in establishing recognition of retired faculty in Memorial Plaza. For more than 20 years, he volunteered for the local and Mid-Maryland Division of the American Heart Association. 

In an essay written by Sam in 1995 when nominated for the CASE Professor of the Year, he wrote, “My greatest reward as a teacher comes when my students understand how their bodies function, realize their own potentials, and explore the interdisciplinary nature of knowledge. I hope that when they leave the classroom, they will continue to set personal records for themselves, both as Olympic thinkers and creative athletes.”

A native of Three Bridges, New Jersey, Sam went to Hunterton Central High School where he was on both the football and wrestling teams. During his junior year, he was second in his weight class in the N.J. StateNovice Wrestling Tournament.

Sam is survived by his wife, Susan Snodgrass Case ’65 of Westminster, and their two daughters Lauren and Sarah, and their families.

What is the Maryland Environmental Service? Retrieved from http://www.menv.com/ on August 22, 2012… http://www.menv.com/whoweare.shtml

“In 1970, Maryland’s Governor and legislators created Maryland Environmental Service to protect the state’s air, land and water resources. Today, our independent state agency continues to fulfill this vital directive.

“We have no regulatory authority and we receive no direct appropriations. Our agency is a self-supporting, not-for-profit public corporation, combining the public sector’s commitment to environmental protection with the private sector’s flexibility and responsiveness.

“MES provides services at competitive rates to government and private sector clients and works on projects including water and wastewater treatment, solid waste management, composting, recycling, dredged material management, hazardous materials cleanup, and renewable energy. We provide expert engineering, monitoring and inspection services.

“With 731 diverse projects located in three states, ranging in cost from $580 to $25 million, we couple operational expertise with a commitment to strict environmental compliance and safe work practices.

“Maryland Environmental Service remains focused on finding innovative solutions to our region’s most complex environmental challenges, and on preserving our region’s natural resources for generations to come.” Retrieved from http://www.menv.com/

Eagle Archive: School experience has changed in Carroll, but it still adds up for students

Eagle Archive: School experience has changed in Carroll, but it still adds up for students




In August, 1971, much of the community was curious as to whether or not the "Carroll County Vocational Technical Center" would open its doors on Sept. 7 to launch its first year of operation.

Today, the school on Washington Road, next to Westminster High School, is known as the Carroll County Career and Technology Center.

The job training and college preparatory classes at the Career and Technology Center vary from business and retail to computer and construction, from engineering and manufacturing to health and transportation.

According to an Aug. 16, 1971, article in the now defunct Democratic Advocate newspaper, "Frank Mather, administrator of the center, said that all of the school's facilities except for the horticulture area, conference rooms and some lavatories and some equipment will be ready for use on opening day….. http://www.baltimoresun.com/explore/carroll/news/community/ph-ce-eagle-archive-0819-20120818,0,5980768.story

Eagle Archive: If the past is a guide, political conventions are sure to be entertaining



As the Olympics draw to a close and the end of the summer looms on the horizon, you can be sure that the upcoming Republican and Democrat national conventions will provide end-of-summer entertainment.

For those setting their DVRs: The Republican National Convention is in Tampa on Aug. 27-30 and the upcoming Democrat National Convention will take place in Charlotte, N.C., Sept. 3-6.

Today's presidential nomination process is very different from the early days of the Republic, when the two major parties — the Federalists and the Democrat-Republicans (the forerunner of the today's Democrat Party) — determined their respective presidential nominees by a caucus made-up of members of Congress or state legislatures. This process prevailed through 1828.

The first national political convention of what we now know as the two major political parties was held by the Democrat Party just down the road in Baltimore, May 21 and 23, 1832… http://www.baltimoresun.com/explore/carroll/news/community/ph-ce-eagle-archive-0812-20120808,0,1262168.story

Eagle Archive: In 1923, sheriff busted the Hampstead fireman's carnival for gambling



On Wednesday, Aug. 1, 1923, the Hampstead Volunteer Fire Company carnival was accused of running a gambling operation and was shut down by Carroll County Sheriff William Phillips.

Phillips appeared on the carnival grounds with Carroll County State's Attorney Theodore F. Brown, and arrested the person in charge of the carnival's amusements, Thomas Zepp, and hauled him off to jail.

Pandemonium broke loose in Hampstead as a result. This was especially true because of the significance the Hampstead fireman's carnival has played in the history of the town…
