Volusia: The Origin Of A Name, Donald C. Gaby
Volusia: The Origin Of A Name, Donald C. Gaby
Florida Historical Quarterly
The origin of the name “Volusia” for the county and community in Florida has been a mystery. Although at least three explanations have been offered, many professional historians writing of Florida or of Volusia County claim that the origin of the name is unknown.

Wife-Killers And Evil Temptresses: Gender, Pardons And Respectability In Florida, 1889-1914, Vivien Miller
Wife-Killers And Evil Temptresses: Gender, Pardons And Respectability In Florida, 1889-1914, Vivien Miller
Florida Historical Quarterly
Florida's State Board of Pardons, created by the state constitution of 1868, was a necessary component of the state’s criminal justice system in the late 19th and 20th centuries due to the general inadequacy of the penal arrangements,1 the frequency with which judges imposed death penalties on those convicted of firstdegree murder, and the absence of any probation or parole facilities. Letters to the pardoning board, to successive governors and to newspapers such as the Florida Times Union and the Tampa Tribune, indicate accord among diverse sections of Florida society on the need for harsh punishment for those who committed …

A Botanical Mystery The Elusive Trail Of The Datil Pepper To St. Augustine, Jean Andrews
A Botanical Mystery The Elusive Trail Of The Datil Pepper To St. Augustine, Jean Andrews
Florida Historical Quarterly
Since December 1984, when Peppers: The Domesticated Capsicums was published, interest in growing and eating capsicums has increased dramatically. Prior to that publication, little attention had been given to the historical aspects of the genus Capsicum, which is comprised of all the green and red peppers (pimientos) in the world, but does not include its namesake black pepper (pimienta) or Piper nigrum, a native of India, and a much wanted item in the pre-Columbian spice trade. Five-hundred years ago, while Christopher Columbus was searching for a shorter route to India and the East Indies in order to break the Muslim …

Aid Societies Were Not Alike: Northern Teachers In Post-Civil War Florida, John T. Foster, Jr.
Aid Societies Were Not Alike: Northern Teachers In Post-Civil War Florida, John T. Foster, Jr.
Florida Historical Quarterly
Northern teachers in the South during the Civil War and Reconstruction have been the subject of various studies.1 This literature emphasizes the origins and development of the aid societies that sponsored the teachers, and it focuses upon major figures who shaped educational policy. At the same time, little attention details the activities of early northern teachers in Florida within the context of developments in other places. Florida’s experience varies from other parts of the South, and it offers, by contrast, a fresh perspective on the regional experience. Ansel Eddy Kinne’s career provides an opportunity for understanding aid societies. From early …

Somatotypes Of Athletes With Physical Disabilities And The Type Of Activity They Undertake, Agata Kamionka, Elzbieta Grzywacz, Mariusz Lipowski
Baltic Journal of Health and Physical Activity
Background: The issue of scientific measurement of somatotypes of athletes with physical disabilities and the type of physical activity undertaken by them is poorly documented in the literature. The aim of the study is to determine what type of body composition is characteristic of athletes with physical disabilities, engaging in various types of physical activity, such as swimming, sitting volleyball and weight lifting. Material and methods: Sixty men, aged 20-30, were qualified for the study. Each study participant had a motor dysfunction and was in intellectual norm. For the research protocol, Sheldon’s typology in Heath and Carter modification was used. …

Influence Of Functional Abilities On The Quality Of Refereeing In Handball, Ivan Belcic, Lana Ruzic, Alen Marosevic
Baltic Journal of Health and Physical Activity
Background: Several factors contributed to the evolution of handball, and one of the most important changes for faster, more dynamic and aggressive game is the change of rules which increase physical demands of players and especially referees. The aim of this study is to determine whether functional abilities have an influence on the quality of refereeing. Material and methods: 31 subjects were involved in the research, all of them top-level referees with an average age of 34.66±6.44, height 184.02±5.87 cm and body mass 91.14±10.61 kg. Testing was divided into two parts: the first part was spiroergometric progressive test on a …
Color Matters: The Creation Of The Saralee Doll, Gordon Patterson
Color Matters: The Creation Of The Saralee Doll, Gordon Patterson
Florida Historical Quarterly
"It had begun with Christmas,” declared Claudia, Toni Morrison’s narrator in her novel The Bluest Eye. “The big, the special, the loving gift was always a big, blue-eyed, Baby Doll. From the clucking sounds of adults I knew that the doll represented what they thought was my fondest wish. I was bemused with the thing itself, and the way it looked. What was I supposed to do with it?“1 Through much of the twentieth century, generations of African-American children experienced the full force of this fictional character’s dilemma. Their skin color posed a barrier between their self-image and the image …
