1949ref. BK0106Del Rey California 1949. Five gelatin silver photographs approximately 8 x 10 inches. Four with the stamp of photographer Paulo Takahashi. Some curling and edge creasing with occasional light staining and wear; very good overall. A fine group of photographs documenting the Del Rey basketball team during its 1948-49 Western Young Buddhist League championship season. The principal image shows the players seated on the gymnasium floor amid a large crowd and is captioned in white "'48 DEL REY '49 / W.Y.B.L. 'A' CHAMPS." The remaining four photographs show game action in the same crowded gymnasium including shots under the basket and a player driving through the lane with spectators packed along the walls only a few feet from the court. Basketball was already a substantial part of Japanese American Buddhist youth culture in California before the war. Contemporary newspapers record Del Rey teams participating in Central California Buddhist basketball during the 1930s1 while the Del Rey YBA was sufficiently active by 1939 to take responsibility for issues of the regional Bussei Review.2 The Western Young Buddhist League itself had prewar roots extending at least to the 1920s with records of its presidents and conference activities preserved among the Buddhist Churches of America papers at UCLA.3 Organized Japanese American basketball was being rebuilt rapidly after wartime forced removal and incarceration during the period of these photographs. An account of the postwar leagues notes that by 1946 Central Valley teams were already playing under Buddhist league sponsorship while Japanese American communities in the Bay Area were still organizing their first postwar circuit.4 Paulo Takahashi was an established Central California photographer. Pacific Citizen credited photographs to him by 1952 and identified "Paulo Takahashi Studio" with a Del Rey address in 1953; by 1958 he was active in the Professional Photographers Association of Central California. 1 "YWBA CAGE RESULTS" The Japanese American News January 17 1934 1. 2 "'Bussei Review' to Be Published in Del Rey" Japanese American News November 25 1939 2. 3 Buddhist Churches of America records Collection 2364.

Marsh 1907 - 1982 a native New Yorker was among the fundamental figures in the growth of college basketball as a major sport. Marsh was assistant sports editor of the New York Herald Tribune. Marsh started at the paper as a copy boy while still a student at City College. By 1930 he was regularly covering college basketball then a sport confined to local rivalries in cramped campus gyms. An occasional "big game" found its way to an armory. Ned Irish introduced intersectional doubleheaders to Madison Square Garden in December 1934 and Marsh was quick to see the potential of the sport. He helped organize the Metropolitan Basketball Writers Association that year and in 1938 was a leader in founding the N.I.T. which was originally sponsored by the writers group. Marsh was also attracted by college football partly because of the Herald Tribune's sponsorship of an All-Star game for the benefit of the Fresh Air Fund and partially because of his association with Columbia. He served three terms 1942-47 1951-53 and 1966-68 as Columbia's sports information director. Marsh along with Everett B. Morris of the Herald Tribune started the East-West College All-Star basketball game at Madison Square Garden in 1946. The annual event which ran until 1964 was also a benefit for the Fresh Air Fund. Marsh was not only active in the promotion of the Garden event but also in the assembling of the teams and maintaining the relationship with the N.C.A.A. and the colleges whose players appeared in the game. The All-Star game gave heightened visibility to college players and the schools they represented. Marsh was instrumental in developing the Eastern College Athletic Conference into a major factor in the organization of college sports. The E.C.A.C. began as the central office of Eastern Intercollegiate Athletics in 1938 primarily as a clearinghouse for the assignment of game officials. It later grew into an organization of over 100 colleges that conducted championships in several sports. Marsh founded the E.C.A.C. Service Bureau its publicity and statistical arm in 1947. The Herald Tribune closed in 1966 and Marsh worked for its ill-fated successor the World Journal Tribune until it closed May 5 1967. In July 1969 he became the full-time head of the E.C.A.C. Service Bureau in Manhattan. He retired in June 1973. Marsh and Edward Ehre founded and co-edited the hardcover book annual Best Sports Stories E.P. Dutton from 1945 to 1980 a book that helped elevate sportswriting and also recognized its quality.

1941ref. 19551AB1941. University City 1941. 29 : 195 cm. 1 leaf text 1 leaf illustrations. Alvie E. Sanberg of University City Missouri invented a number of different goal improvements. On February 24 1936 he filed both a design patent application and a utility patent application for his new "Baketball Goal"; the two patents were issued a week apart in September of that same year. Prior to his invention nets had to be tied or lanced on to the hoop. But thanks to Sandberg all one neeeds to do is take loops from the net and hook them over the connectors circling the ring. This method is so effective that we could not think today of attaching the net any other mode. - See "Smithonian - The patent behind Basketball". unknown
