Seward Staley Award



	SEWARD C. STALEY (1893-1991) had a lifetime involvement in sport and for two generations promoted the study of sport and sport history. Spending most of his professional career at the University of Illinois, as early as 1935 he advocated a curriculum of sport as the basis of physical education programs. He authored numerous articles from the 1920s. It was through his efforts that in 1960 the History of Sport Section of the College Physical Education Association was developed. This is of signal importance for it was out of this History of Sport Section that the stimulus for the development of the North American Society for Sport History was started. Until his death in 1991, he worked diligently on an immense bibliographical project in classifying sport literature. Seward Stanley truly invigorated the study or sport and sport history.
