# You Are One of Them

***You Are One of Them*** is a 2013 novel by Elliott Holt. It is based on the true story of American schoolgirl Samantha Smith who wrote to Yuri Andropov, the Premier of the Soviet Union, at the height of the Cold War. Holt's first novel, *You Are One of Them* received predominantly positive reviews. Most critics praised Holt's use of language and description of characters, though some expressed reservations about its genre.

## Background

The title comes from the poem *In the Waiting Room* by Elizabeth Bishop.

The novel is based on a true story. During the Cold War, a 10-year old American girl called Samantha Smith corresponded with Soviet Premier Yuri Andropov, who invited her to the Soviet Union. She died at the age of 13 in a plane crash from Boston to Bangor.

## Summary

Set in 1982 during the Cold War era, a ten-year-old American girl called Jenny Jones writes to the Soviet Premier asking him why he would want to use the nuclear bomb. He replies, saying he only wants peace, and invites her to the Soviet Union. After the correspondence is published in *Pravda*, she tours the Soviet Union and dies in a plane crash. More than ten years later, in 1996, her friend Sarah Zuckerman visits the new Russia, then under President Boris Yeltsin, after she hears from Svetlana, a Russian woman suggesting her friend might not be dead, but may have defected to Russia instead.

## Critical reception

The novel was widely reviewed. It received mostly positive reviews. In *Bookforum*, Roxane Gay called it "a novel of grand and intimate scope, artfully balanced between the political and personal," adding that it was both "a compelling character study and a psychological thriller." However, she believes that the prologue was unnecessary. In the *Los Angeles Review of Books*, Nathan Deuel suggested it was "as convincing and absorbing a portrait of post-Soviet Russia as you'll read," adding that "at its heart, it's also about America." She also praised Holt's descriptions and details in characters, noting the book broaches the topic of mental health in face of the threat of destruction.

In *The Boston Globe*, Max Winter praised Holt's use of the narrator, "who comes at us with offhand force in the same way certain movie voice-overs color an entire narrative with simple inflections of tone." He added that there was "nothing performative" about it. Writing for *NPR*, Lidia Jean Kott described the novel as "beautifully subtle." Natalie Bakopoulos of the *San Francisco Gate* argued that it "beautifully compress\[ed\] and expand\[ed\] time, place and the boundaries of the self." Novelist Maggie Shipstead, writing in *The New York Times*, said that Holt's descriptions were "fascinating, slyly funny and full of melancholy details." She concluded that it was, "a hugely absorbing first novel from a writer with a fluid, vivid style and a rare knack for balancing the pleasure of entertainment with the deeper gratification of insight."

Other critics were negative. In *The Los Angeles Times*, Alexander Nazaryan called it, "an odd hybrid of bildungsroman and thriller," adding that it did not "quite know what it wants to be." He concluded, "Holt never pull\[ed\] the narrative strings tightly enough." While Jesse Baron of *The New York Observer* praised Holt's "creative" use of language, he said that the novel was "somehow conventional in its prose."

# Young Political Majors

**Young Political Majors, LLC** was a private consulting firm which registered people to vote as Republicans. It operated in several states including California, Florida, Arizona and Massachusetts. The firm was accused of misleading voters into registering as Republicans.

## California operations

Mark Jacoby was arrested in California on October 18, 2008, and charged with two counts of felony voter registration fraud and two counts of perjury. The California Republican Party hired Jacoby's firm and paid it $7 – 12 for every Californian it registered as a member of the GOP. Dan Goldfine, an attorney for Jacoby, denied any wrongdoing by his client and called the charges "baseless," saying the arrest outside an Ontario hotel was part of a "long pattern of harassment against Mr. Jacoby for an entirely valid voter registration effort."

On October 16, 2009, Jacoby pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor count of voter registration fraud before Los Angeles Superior Court Judge David Horwitz, who sentenced him to three years probation, 30 days of Caltrans service and the requirement to show proof that he is registered to vote at his correct address in Laguna Beach. As part of the plea agreement, the Judge dismissed two felony counts of perjury and one felony count of voter registration fraud.

## Florida operations

In the summer of 2004, Jacoby appeared at the Gainesville election office with about 1,200 voter registration cards, of which 510 showed a switch to the Republican party. Elections Supervisor Beverly Hill says she was suspicious and randomly called some of the Republicans to verify they wanted to switch, but all of them said, "Absolutely not...They didn't even know they had signed a registration form."

YPM worked for JSM Inc., which worked for Arno Political Consultants, a Sacramento, California firm that qualified 300 ballot initiatives in 20 states, including Florida's class size amendment. According to Mindy Tucker Fletcher, a senior adviser to the Florida GOP, the Republican National Committee had hired Arno for a voter registration drive. Arno claimed that Jacoby showed Arno copies of voter registration cards in "their handwriting. They signed it. They checked the party affiliation...Why would they have a change of heart?"

* ESPN broadcast its first race in 1981, from North Carolina Motor Speedway (its first live race was later in the year at Atlanta International Raceway), and TNN followed in 1991. All Cup races were nationally televised by 1985; networks struck individual deals with track owners, and multiple channels carried racing action. Many races were shown taped and edited on *Wide World of Sports* and syndication services like Mizlou and SETN, but almost all races were live by 1989.

* During its coverage of the 1983 Daytona 500, CBS introduced an innovation which director Bob Fishman helped develop – a miniature, remote-controlled in-car camera called RaceCam. Fishman directed every Daytona 500 telecast on CBS, with the exception of 1992, 1994 and 1998 because Fishman was away directing CBS' figure-skating coverage for the Winter Olympics.

* After SETN folded, one Pocono race a year was produced by Jim Wiglesworth on pay-per-view for Viewer's Choice (now In Demand) from 1988 to 1990. They were not a huge success, as fans were reluctant to pay for what they could see last week for free. The Viewer's Choice shows were noteworthy in that they premiered viewer phone-in questions during the races.

# Young Yatri Organization

**Young Yatri Organization** is a not-for-profit youth organization, operating in Nepal. The institution was established in November 2009, by seven high school students aiming for the growth and development of youths of Nepal.

## Aims

YYO aims to provide a platform and knowledge to the youth so that they can realize their capabilities and responsibilities. YYO believes that, when empowered, the youth will develop the sense humanity, patriotism and rationality that is needed for the enhancement and well-functioning of the society.

## How YYO works

YYO chose its medium to be theater, more specifically Forum Theatre. After its first two events, YYO realized that to successfully affect the youth it has to approach it through ways other than theater too. Hence, YYO extended itself to incorporate Event Creation and Management under its working methods. "Youth Jatra, ...My Journey from 7 to 14" and "Youth for Development" are the events which have till now been created by YYO.

## Experience

### Paath..sala

In January 2010, Saraswati Teaching and Resource Center organized the 6th International Teachers Conference, which was attended by more than 700 teachers. At the event, the Young Yatri Organization performed a forum theater play "Paath...sala". Forum Theatre is a type of theatre where the theatrical performance can be stopped at some point, and from there on the audience will suggest how should the play proceed. The audience can either give suggestions to the actors about what is to be done, the audience can add themselves in the play as another character or they can replace some of the existing characters of the play. The play addressed the issues of school bullying, teachers lackadaisical nature and disrespect to culture. Paath...sala was directed by honorary member Mrs. Loonibha Karki Tuladhar.

### Modiaain

Modiaain was written by Biseshwor Prasad Koirala in 2036 B.S. (traditional Nepali calendar). This is the same year when there was a national upheaval against the Panchayat system in Nepal. The novel is inspired by events that occurred years ago which occurred when Koirala was a child, which Koirala tried to link with the present.

In order to revive the interest of young people in their own literature and to give them a platform to take a pride in it, Modiaain was organized. Modiaain was compiled and directed by Mr. Birendra Hamal and acted by the actors of Rastriya Nach Ghar. The play was viewed by around 300 youths.

### Youth Jatra

On August 12, International Youth Day 2010 was celebrated by youth all over the world. For the celebration of International Youth Day 2010 in Nepal, an event was organized by 19 youth organizations of Nepal, named Youth Jatra. YOUTH JATRA 2010 also celebrated the beginning of International Youth Year August 2010 - August 2011. Young Yatri Organization was one of the organizers. First of its kind in Nepal, Youth Jatra is a platform "of the youth, by the youth and for the youth". Total attendandance for the event was around 2000. The mega event included:

* Musical concert
* B-boying
* Table Talks
* Theatrical performances
* Documentary screening
* Art exhibition and workshop
* Photo exhibition
* Youth entrepreneur stalls
* Blood donation programs

#### dOBATO...

| Performers |
| --- |
| Astha Pokharel, Bhupendra Sharma, Bibek Babu Pokharel, Bideha Agam, Bidesh Thapaliya, Bishaka Karki, Devashish Sharma, Niranjana Pokharel, Sandesh Mohan Adhikary, Shubham Sapkota |

"dOBATO", which means junction, was YYO's second forum theater experience. This play was directed and acted by the members of YYO. The theatrical performance was named "dOBATO" because all the characters and spectators of the play faced dilemmas and had to make choices during the play.

Staged in Alliance Française, Tripureshwor, Kathmandu on 11 August 2010, it was one of the events of YOUTH JATRA 2010. "dOBATO" portrayed six youths, out of which three were so-called "hooligans". "dOBATO" attempted to familiarize the audience with their characters, their way of thinking and their background. The "hooligans" represented the depressed youth of Nepal who are involved in drug abuse and other misdemeanors. The other three are youths from well-off families.

At the climax, the three "hooligans" commit a felony and find themselves in trouble. At that point, the play is handed over to the audience - the audience was given the chance to suggest how should the play proceed, to introduce themselves as a new character or to modify one of the characters or the story itself. Almost all of the audience participated in some way in the play - starting from drug abuse the theatrical discussion highlighted the issues of AIDS, family's responsibilities and even national problems like political instability. This section was filled with numerous attempts by the audience to convince the "hooligans" to come back to the right path.

### … My journey from 7 to 14..

One photo equals thousand words. With this assertion Subesksha Shrestha started her journey to photography at the age of seven and has captured in her camera photographs ranging from political figures to unknown victims, from mountains to meadows, from hooliganism to heritage. She is registered in the Guinness Book of World Records as World's Youngest Girl Photographer.

This was a five-day event from 12–17 September. Through this exhibition YYO encouraged Subeksha to continue her dedication to photography and she interacted with more than 500 students who came to the exhibition.

### Activista Big Bang

In partnership with Activista, youth network of Actionaid, YYO helped to organize an event called "Activista Big Bang" on 4 November 2010. With an aim to pressurize political parties to include Right to Food in the constitution, YYO performed activities such as flash mobs and concerts. More than 500 youth participated in the event.

### Red Ribbon Campaign

Young Yatri Organisation performed a forum theater focusing on the topic of AIDS on December 2 at Xavier International College, KTM. The play was viewed by more than 300 students. YYO raised the issue of unsafe sex and drug abuse in the play, portraying these as two of the main causes of HIV infection. The play also depict the social and personal trauma HIV infected persons have to suffer.

title: Yuanchuavis

abstract: Yuanchuavis is an extinct genus of pengornithid bird in the group Enantiornithes. Its type and only specimen, IVPP V27883, is the holotype for its only species, Y. kompsosoura. It was recovered from the Jiufotang Formation of China, and has a fossilized fan of highly graduated rectrices. The tail has graduation similar to Chiappeavis and a pair of highly elongate central rectrices similar to the pintails of extant male sunbirds. Melanosomes sampled from the holotype suggest the central pair of rectrices to be dark in colour, and the rest of the tail feathers to be either grey or with non-iridescent structural colour.

# Yscir with Honddu Isaf and Llanddew

**Yscir with Honddu Isaf and Llanddew** (formerly known as **Yscir**) is the name of an electoral ward in southern Powys, Wales. It covers five local government communities and elects a councillor to Powys County Council.

## Description

The Yscir with Honddu Isaf and Llanddew ward covers the sparsely populated communities of Honddu Isaf, Llanddew, Merthyr Cynog, Trallong and Yscir, including the valleys of the Nant Brân, Afon Honddu and Afon Ysgir. The River Usk partly borders the ward to the south. The Llanwrtyd Wells ward borders to the north, Bronllys and Felin-fach to the east, Maescar/Llywel to the west and Talybont-on-Usk to the south. The town of Brecon borders the southeast corner of the ward.

According to the 2011 UK Census the population of the Yscir ward was 1,038.

Following a boundary review to improve electoral parity, the Yscir ward was augmented with the addition of the communities of Honddu Isaf and Llanddew (from the former Felin-fach ward), with the ward name being changed as a result to Yscir with Honddu Isaf and Llanddew.

## Events

In early 2018 county councillor Iain McIntosh visited every house in the Yscir ward to sign a petition demanding high speed broadband. Yscir had some of the poorest internet connectivity in Wales.

## County elections

Since the May 1995 local government election, Yscir has been represented by one county councillor on Powys County Council. Councillor Dorothy Thomas, an Independent, represented the ward until 2017. She retired before the May 2017 elections.

In May 2017 the Yscir ward made news by being the only ward in Wales not to hold an election, because no candidates had come forward for the vacant seat. This led to a second call for nominations and a by-election arranged to elect a new councillor. Six candidates came forward and, on 22 June 2017, Conservative Party candidate Iain McIntosh won the contest. McIntosh had stood unsuccessfully in Brecon's St John ward in May. Former Conservative, Steve Davies, stood as an Independent in the by-election and, with only 2 votes received possibly the lowest vote in any Powys Council election.

# Port Clarence, Alaska

**Port Clarence** is a census-designated place (CDP) in the Nome Census Area of Alaska. The population was 0 at the 2020 census, down from 24 in 2010. It is located on the spit separating Port Clarence Bay from the Bering Strait.

## History

Missionary Sheldon Jackson's greatest success with his Teller Reindeer Station at Port Clarence, figured in the Overland Relief Expedition in 1897 to save marooned whalers near Point Barrow.

During the 1898-1899 gold rush in Nome, smaller quantities of both gold and high-grade tin were mined in Port Clarence.

The Harriman Alaska Expedition visited Port Clarence in 1899, making a photographic record of Alaska Natives.

In 1900, the United States Coast and Geodetic Survey charted the coastline.

From 1961 to 2010 Port Clarence was a LORAN-C station administered by the United States Coast Guard. The LORAN-C Program was terminated on February 8, 2010. The Coast Guard commissioned a 1,350-foot (411.48-metre) tall Loran-C tower at the station in 1961, and it was the tallest structure in Alaska until its demolition in 2010.

## Geography

Port Clarence is located at 65°15′58″N 166°51′10″W / 65.26611°N 166.85278°W / 65.26611; -166.85278 (65.265974, -166.852765).

According to the United States Census Bureau, the CDP has a total area of 36.5 square miles (95 km2), of which, 35.5 square miles (92 km2) of it is land and 1.0 square mile (2.6 km2) of it (2.74%) is water.

# Tupiza River

The **Tupiza River** is a seasonal river located in Bolivia in the Potosí Department, in the Sud Chichas Province. The Tupiza River is a mainly seasonal river; it dries up during the dry season, and becomes full in the wet season. It flows for 28 miles southeast, towards Paraguay, before ending west of Tarija.

## River

### Path

The river forms at an altitude of 3327 meters at the confluence of the Río Chilco and the Río Tres Palcas. The river flows west for the first 20 kilometers, then turns south, crosses the city of Tupiza and flows into the Río San Juan del Oro, a tributary of the Río Pilcomayo, at an altitude of 2874m. It is not navigable.

It has two tributaries that flow into it near Tupiza, the Tatasi River and the Alexandrabetha River. Both join it on the westward side.

The river is used for irrigation for the nearby villages, with canals feeding plots of corn, potatoes, and onions.

### Ending

The Tupiza river valley ends in a canyon now called "El Angosto", which is 120 meters long, 6 meters high and 5 meters wide. There are two tunnels, one for vehicles and another for rail, as well as a viewpoint overlooking the confluence of the San Juan Oro and Tupiza rivers.

## Flooding

In 2018, record rainfall in the area caused the river to overflow its banks and flood the local village. Much of the Tupiza watershed was ruined, with damage to buildings, livestock, and farms.

# Michael C. Mitchell

**Michael C. Mitchell** (born January 4, 1946) is an American planner, designer, lecturer and environmentalist. He works on rural development.

## Earlier career

At Portland State University, Mitchell became one of the organizers of the First Earth Day in 1970, coordinating universities throughout America's northwest states.\[*citation needed*\] After his work on the First Earth Day, he was one of ten university students selected from across the nation by President Richard Nixon's Administration to form a national Youth Advisory Board on environmental matters, S.C.O.P.E (Student Council on Pollution and the Environment) was assigned to the U.S. Department of Interior where Mitchell was a reviewer on the creation of the first Environmental Impact Statement (EIS).

Mitchell continued his work with what became the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), writing an environmental education program for students.\[*citation needed*\]

## MCM Group International

MCM Group is an international planning and design firm headquartered in Los Angeles. Founded in 1984 by Michael C. Mitchell after the close of the Los Angeles Olympic Games, where he served as the head of planning and operations, the firm has sought to expand those planning techniques as a model to address prominent social problems. MCM Group provides feasibility consulting, planning, architecture, landscape design and sustainable engineering services. Mitchell has developed offices in Tokyo, Moscow, Middle East offices in Doha, Qatar, an African base in Nairobi, Kenya and currently four offices in China, with its headquarters in Beijing.

## 1984 Los Angeles Summer Olympic Games

In the early 1980s, Mitchell was recruited by the Los Angeles Olympic Organizing Committee, where he served as the Group vice-president of Planning and Control (Finance). Among his duties included overseeing the planning of the Olympic venues and supervising the architectural department's venue planning. During the Olympics he was responsible for the Games Operations Center and oversaw the closeout of the Games after their completion.

He has since served as a senior planning consultant to six other Olympic Games and four World Fairs.

## LA84 Foundation

As head of the close-out operations after the completion of the Los Angeles 1984 Summer Olympics, Mitchell oversaw the creation of the LA84 Foundation, which was formed out of the $225 million surplus from the operations of the Games. The Foundation is now a national leader in supporting youth programs, providing recreation and learning opportunities to disadvantaged youth, training youth coaches and convening national conferences on youth sports issues.

## Live Aid

In the Spring of 1985, Mitchell was contacted by Bob Geldof, an Irish rock musician, that had been working on issues of drought and famine in Africa. Geldof asked Mitchell to produce a worldwide televised music show to raise funds to help alleviate the catastrophic consequences of the worst African famine in a century.

Mitchell became the Executive Producer of the worldwide Live Aid broadcast (under a newly formed venture Worldwide Sports and Entertainment) and President of the Live Aid Foundation in America.

The July 13, 1985 broadcast was the world's first large globally interactive show seen by 1.5 billion viewers in 150 countries. Whereas the 1984 Olympics utilized three satellites to beam from one location around the world, Live Aid utilized thirteen satellites sending and receiving concerts from seven locations from around the world and producing one international feed back to the 150 nations. Despite 1985 being at the height of the Cold War, Mitchell established a global broadcast with a live concert from the Soviet Union featuring Autograph, and a delayed Live Aid showing in China.

President Ronald Reagan's Administration supported the Live Aid Foundation by providing wheat from America's reserves and awarded Mitchell a Presidential Citation for the Live Aid Foundation's contributions to humanity.

## NFIE

Mitchell continued his contributions to social and education programs by accepting an appointment to the Board of the National Education Association's Foundation for the Improvement of Education (NFIE), serving on the board from 1987 to 1997. Since its beginning in 1969, the Foundation has served as a laboratory of learning, offering funding and other resources to public school educators, their schools, and districts to solve complex teaching and learning challenges.

## Fund for Democracy and Development

During the dissolution of the Soviet Union starting in 1990, Russia and Ukraine experienced a severe shortage of medical and food supplies. Working throughout both countries witnessing first-hand the growing crisis, Mitchell and his close friend, Yankel Ginzburg, an American artist and humanitarian, who had family in Tver, Russia, responded to requests by Russia's leadership for assistance, co-founding the "Fund for Democracy and Development" to provide aid to alleviate the crisis.

Mitchell served as the founding board chairman in 1991 and L. Ronald Scheman (co-founder of the Pan American Development Foundation, where his work included providing financial assistance to low-income rural communities), served as the first President. Past President Richard M. Nixon served as the honorary chairman of the Fund.

From 1991 to 1994 the Fund is credited with channeling 240 million dollars worth of staples and food supplies to the former Soviet Union. As gratitude for the contributions of the Fund, the Russian government commissioned a monument park to reflect American goodwill.

## Amur Tiger Sanctuary

With offices established in Moscow and St. Petersburg, Mitchell contributed to several rural development and environmental projects across the former Soviet Union. Mitchell's planning of development projects in rural Russia included work in Siberia on sustainable resource and forest management practices.

While undertaking those projects in conjunction with local wildlife scientists Mitchell convinced the Prime Minister of Russia, Viktor Chernomyrdin, to establish the Amur Tiger Sanctuary in 1993, which was initially funded through the Global Survival Network (GSN), an environmental organization he co-founded with Steve Galster now of Freeland Foundation.

The Sanctuary included introducing armed ranger patrols to stop the threat that poachers played in the region. The initial work that Mitchell and the executive director of GSN, Steve Galster, did to establish the sanctuary was soon funded by the World Wildlife Fund (WWF), now known as World Wide Fund for Nature, and is currently carried out with the support of the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment (Russia). As a result of this work, the wild Siberian Tiger population has rebounded from their critical endangered level.

## Exposing animal and human trafficking

In order to strengthen the Sanctuary efforts to stop poaching, Mitchell worked with Steve Galster conducting undercover video interviews with the poachers. Through these undercover meetings, he and Galster discovered a link between animal poachers and human traffickers. What began as an effort to preserve habitat became an international exposé on trafficking. From 1995 to 1997 they undertook a two-year undercover investigation personally holding meetings with traffickers and trafficked women to expose the international relationship between animal and human trafficking.

Information and undercover video derived from their investigation were used to create a GSN written report, "Crime & Servitude" and a video documentary, "Bought & Sold." The film was released in 1997 and received widespread media coverage in the US and abroad, including specials on ABC Primetime Live, CNN, and BBC.

The documentary also helped to catalyze legislative reform on trafficking as well as new financial resources to address the problem.

Galster took what was learned during that undercover period and continues this work, founding the Freeland Foundation, which is the lead implementing partner of Asia's Regional Response to Endangered Species Trafficking (ARREST), a program sponsored by the U.S. government in partnership with ASEAN and over fifty governmental and non-governmental organizations.

The material that was collected during those two years is housed at the Human Rights Documentation Initiative (HRDI), The University of Texas at Austin

## United Nations Day of Tolerance

Beginning in 1985, Mitchell began an association with Irving Sarnoff, the executive director of Friends of the United Nations (FOTUN), and his co-founder, Dr. Noel Brown, Director of the United Nations Environmental Program (UNEP), North America. The Friends of the United Nations is an NGO dedicated to advocating support for programs of the United Nations.

As part of their work on international social issues Mitchell was asked to create a celebration for the United Nations International Day for Tolerance in 1999. The International Day for Tolerance is an annual observation declared by UNESCO in 1995 to generate public awareness of the dangers of intolerance.

Mitchell organized the 1999 event honoring Mikhail Gorbachev, former leader of the Soviet Union and Arnold Schwarzenegger, actor, politician and Chairman of the USC Schwarzenegger Institute of State and Global Policy. Keynote speakers included John Kerry, U.S. Senator and U.S. Secretary of State.

## Rural development

One of the first projects integrating agricultural development, sustainability, community and social values, and economic growth was in a region of Qingdao, China where his company, MCM Group, brought international blueberry agricultural experts to develop what is considered now one of the world's largest blueberry farms (The Qingdao Cangma Mountain Development). The project included hi-technology organic agriculture, agritourism, educational programs, local culture and residential development to provide the local rural community with a successful economic transition.

# Waterhouse Byrne Baird Shield

The **Waterhouse Byrne Baird Shield** is the oldest and longest consecutively run club cross-country event in Ireland, and one of the oldest in the world.

## History

It was first held in 1896, for members of the then-new Donore Harriers Club, when a Dublin jeweller by the name of Mr. Samuel Waterhouse, presented the Donore Harriers club with a silver shield for a 10-mile handicap cross-country race. The shield was known as the 'Donore Harriers Waterhouse Challenge Shield'.

This race, now known as the Waterhouse Byrne Baird Shield, has been competed for every year on St. Stephen's Day (26th December), with the exception of 1916. It was because so many Donore members were away in the trenches of World War I that the 1916 race wasn’t held. Another factor was the proximity of the course to the Magazine Fort, which was then an ammunitions depot and the scene of one of the first casualties the Easter Rising Rebellion earlier that year. However, the race was held during the most part of World War I, and continued on during the Spanish flu, the Irish Civil War, World War II, the Tuberculosis epidemic, outbreaks of Foot and Mouth disease, and the severe weather conditions of 1962 and 2010 in Ireland. During the Foot and Mouth outbreak in 1967, the race was held on the road. Athletes that year ran five laps of the 'Eagle Lap'. The quicker road times overall that year are not counted for shield race records. History will also show that the 2020 and 2021 versions of the race survived the COVID-19 pandemic. The race starts and finishes every year at the same tree beside the Dog Pond on the horse gallop in the Phoenix Park, Dublin.

The shield has to be won three times by the same person in order for the trophy to be claimed as the property of any one individual. In 1918, Paddy Byrne, after winning the trophy three times, re-presented the trophy to the club, and the same thing happened when Davie Baird, a man who had been seriously wounded at the Somme, similarly had three victories. But he managed to return to win in 1920, 1921, and again in 1937, to become immortalised in the event’s title as it currently stands.

Leo Uhlemann has also won the trophy three times overall, but two of those occasions occurred after Davie Baird added his name to the trophy; thereby resetting the clock for all other previous winners. They had to begin again from scratch in their quest to win it three times in order to get their names added to the ’shield title’.

The closest finish was in 1962, when Leo Lynch got to finish less than one yard ahead of the fast finishing scratch man Mick Neville. Earlier that year in January & February Neville became the only athlete ever to win all four individual Irish Cross Country Championships: AAU and IAAB Senior and Junior/Intermediate.

No winner, however, was to be more celebrated than Frank Cahill. Born in 1900, he made his race debut in 1923. There then followed perhaps the most heroic series of failures in the history of athletics, because for the next 52 years he competed without success. In 1974, he was only 200 yards from the finish line when victory was snatched from his grasp. In 1975 he missed a race for the first time, due to a training accident but he returned in 1976 to finally triumph. Legend has it that “scratch athlete” – Eamonn Coghlan – was still finishing breakfast at home in Ranelagh when Cahill started out on the first of his five, two-mile laps. Within sight of the finish, he fell over; and had he accepted the help offered by concerned onlookers, he might have been disqualified. Luckily, he managed to get to his feet again unaided, and make it to the finish line without being caught and on to glory. His heroics made the front page of The Irish Times, where Peter Byrne noted that Irish sport had just been deprived of its “most illustrious loser”. As Byrne added, Cahill’s attempts to win had spanned the political careers of two Cosgraves, WT and Liam. But a year later, Liam Cosgrave was no longer taoiseach, and Cahill was still going strong. Proving that it’s never too late to start winning; Cahill retained the Shield in 1977: breaking his own record – which still stands – as the shield’s oldest winner at the age of 77! In contrast, the youngest winner of the Shield was Willie Smith in 1958, aged 15 years.

## Other Donore Harrier Trophies

### The Faugh-a-Ballagh Challenge Cup

The Faugh-a-Ballagh Cup is contested by club runners from the men's section of Donore Harriers annually over 6 Miles traditionally in the Phoenix Park, Dublin. It is the Donore Harriers Club Cross Country Championships Cup. Since 2017, Donore women compete on the same day for the Jim McNamara Cup.

The course traditionally takes in the horse gallop trail, which runs adjacent to Chesterfield Avenue in the Phoenix Park. It turns close to the stone wall, which is in the clearing at the end of the gallop & with the Pope's Cross in view. It turns back entering the inside part of the tress at the top of the Kyber before emerging through the open ground with its numerous dips, heading in the direction of the Civil Service Pavilion; where loops around again to the Horse Gallop.

The Faugh-a-Ballagh Cup which was first awarded in 1907 to the senior men's winner, is one of the oldest trophies in Donore Harriers; and club trophies in Ireland. It was presented by the 87th Royal Irish Fusiliers in 1907 as a perpetual trophy for the men's club cross country championship over 6 miles.

The first running of the cup took place in Meadowbrook, Dundrum. A report from the time stated that there was "a big gathering of spectators, including many old associates of the club foregathered to witness what turned out to be a very interesting event..." It goes on to give at length to give details of the race, including that, '"V.P. McDonagh, Hon. Secretary sent the 13 competitors on their journey to a capital start"

Previous winners of the cup include well known Irish International and Donore Harriers Athletes: Bertie Messitt, Tom O’Riordan and Jim McNamara.

L.Kelly was the first winner of the cup. Since then there have been three '4 time' winners of the cup:

* Paddy Byrne 'the Byrne from the Waterhouse Byrne Baird Shield' - 1916/1917/1919/1920
* Kevin Maguire - 1948/1949/1950/1951
* Eddie Spillane - 1970/1971/1973/1974

However, the most prolific winner was Bertie Messitt with six wins in 1953, 1958, 1959, 1960, 1961 and 1964.

Other notable winners of the cup were :

* Tom O'Riordan (3) - 1967/1968/1969 (Olympian - 1964, Tokyo / 9 times Irish Cross Country International)

#### Faugh-a-Ballagh and the Donore Connection with the Royal Dublin Fusiliers

The club along with many members of Donore Harriers has a strong connection with the Royal Dublin Fusiliers. Davie Baird joined the 10th Battalion of the Royal Dublin Fusiliers and was badly wounded at the Battle of Ancre in 1916. He made a full recovery and went on to win, most famously the Waterhouse Byrne Shield over three occasions to add his name to that trophy.

There is also an amazing connection and coincidence between 6-time winner of the cup Bertie Messitt and the Fusiliers and the Faugh-a-Ballagh Cup. Years before he joined Donore Harriers, due to lack of work he joined the British Army in 1946, aged 18. His regiment, the Royal Irish Fusiliers were known worldwide as the 'Faughs'. Bertie wrote poetry, and he wrote this short poem about his time in the Regiment:

***FAUGH-A-BALLAGH***

*I wore a hackle in my hat,*

*and marched behind a band.*

*Carried a Lee Enfield rifle,*

*and served in foreign lands.*

*They were the best days of my life,*

*I cherish those golden years.*

*When I was a proud member of*

*the Irish Fusiliers.*

### Strahan-Cahill Cup

The Strahan Cahill Cup is a Donore Harriers Club Cross-Country Handicap race run over 6 Miles traditionally in the Phoenix Park alongside the Faugh-a-Ballagh Cup.
