texts: the Welsh side in August 1925 on a free transfer. During his time with Crusaders, he had played as a half back but on arrival at Cardiff, the club's coaching staff believed he would be more suited to a defensive role. He was trialled in the new position for several reserve matches and impressed the club enough for the change to be made permanent. He began the 1925–26 season as cover for club captain Jimmy Blair from the side. He made his debut for the club in a 1–0 victory over West Ham United on 7 September 1925 in place of Blair. Starting alongside Nelson, the Belfast Telegraph noted that the pair were "sorely tried".His second appearance came more than a month later in a 5–0 defeat to Arsenal again in place of the injured Blair. Despite the heavy defeat, <mask> earned praise in match reports and maintained his place in the side. Despite only appearing in one further match, <mask> was selected for a Welsh League XI to play their counterparts from the Irish League in Swansea on 31 October. He missed only three further games during the remainder of the campaign for Cardiff, making a total of 33 appearances in all competitions during the year as he formed a defensive partnership with Nelson. His form led the club to transfer list Blair in the first half of the season before selling him towards the end of the year. In his second season with Cardiff, <mask> made a further 45 appearances in all competitions, including playing in all seven matches of their successful FA Cup run. Ahead  of the final, <mask> was described as "one of the best tacklers playing this season" in the Daily Herald.The newspaper also noted that his partnership with Nelson formed one of the "best pairs of backs in the country." Cardiff defeated Arsenal 1–0 to become the only team from outside England to win the competition. He remained

 prominent during the first half of the 1927–28 season, missing only 2 of the first 20 league matches of the campaign. However, from late December, his season was blighted by injuries; he made only two appearances in the second half of the campaign, the second in a heavy 7–1 defeat against Derby County on 31 March 1928. He underwent knee surgery in October 1928 in attempt to rectify his cartilage injury problems, having not made an appearance during the new season. As such, he appeared only once during the 1928–29 campaign, returning in a 3–1 defeat to Manchester City in the final month of the campaign. His injury problems and the form of his replacement William Roberts led to his departure from the club as he was unable to regain his place.At the end of the season <mask> was placed on the transfer list, along with Sloan. <mask> received interest from Fulham and Derry City who both made approaches, with Cardiff seeking around £500 for the transfer. However, <mask> was instead transferred to Linfield along with Sloan. Return to Ireland
In his first year with Linfield, he helped the side to a double by winning both the Irish League and Irish Cup. In the final of the cup, on 29 March 1930, Linfield secured a 4–3 victory over Ballymena United. <mask> was involved in a clash of heads with Ballymena player Kilpatrick with the score tied at 3–3 which left the opposition player unable to continue. The Belfast News Letter reported that the incident had likely turned the game in Linfield's favour, writing "Had that accident not happened, Ballymena would, in all probability, have got the winning goal."The Irish Cup victory completed an unusual treble of winning the major cup competition in three countries after already having won the FA Cup and the Welsh Cup. He remained with Linfield until August 1932 when he

 true for any taxpayer – there was no special treatment". Also in 2004, <mask> claimed £395 for an accountant's bill which included "tax advice provided in October 2004 regarding sale of flat". Whilst renting a flat between 2004 and 2006, <mask> claimed £100 a month for cleaning expenses and £586 for repairs. At the end of the lease, the landlord kept the £2,520 deposit, claiming the flat to have been in a poor state. A spokesman for <mask> stated: "<mask> felt frustrated that the landlord refused to return the deposit. He initially pursued the matter through legal channels but let it rest as the costs of fighting it further would far outweigh recouping the deposit".Allegation were made by a Sunday newspaper that <mask> claimed more than £1,500 a month rent for the flat although he was responsible for paying half of the £1,820 a month rent and his fiancée was paying the rest. A spokesman for <mask> said "Despite being entitled to claim in full for the whole rental cost incurred by him and his partner, <mask> claimed less than the amount he himself spent. The rules of the House of Commons make it clear that an MP is entitled to be reimbursed for the rent or mortgage paid by the MP and their partner. Nevertheless, <mask> went out of his way to ensure overall he claimed less for accommodation than he himself paid". <mask> also claimed £247 for 3,000 fridge magnets. Resignation from the Cabinet
On 4 June 2009, <mask> announced his resignation from the Cabinet, and called upon Gordon Brown to resign as Prime Minister.

Post-parliamentary career
On 19 February 2010, <mask> announced he would be standing down as an MP later that year, saying "I have decided that I no longer wish to be an MP. I have spent all my working life in or about Westminster. And while this has been a huge privilege, I've realised I don't want to have spent all my life in frontline politics." He pointed to his work with Demos as occupying him in the immediate future. After leaving parliament, <mask> became the chair of the Institute for Public Policy Research. It was touted that he would stand for the Labour candidacy to become Mayor of London, but he decided against this option.He supported David Miliband in the 2010 Labour leadership election and worked for his campaign, although he was subsequently offered the job of chief of staff to the new leader of the Labour Party, Ed Miliband, a job he turned down. <mask> became linked with the Blue Labour movement within the Labour Party and in April 2011 he was appointed by the Boston Consulting Group as a Special Advisor to their Public Sector Group. In July 2011, he appeared on Newsnight with proposals for welfare reforms, as part of his involvement in Blue Labour. He called for a National Salary Insurance, a job guarantee and free universal childcare, but also said that "freebies" such as Winter Fuel Allowance and free bus passes should not become sacred. He did not rule out returning to Parliament in 2015, but declared his support for Ed Miliband and his leadership. BBC career

 this position on 20 March. As a senior BBC employee he had to resign his membership of the Labour Party.An Employment Tribunal for unfair dismissal was brought by the BBC's former Chief Technology Officer, John Linwood, when he lost his job in 2013 after the Corporation's £100m Digital Media Initiative failed. During the case an email from <mask> was cited in evidence, which read: "We need a clear line on [John Linwood] on whether he is resigning or being fired and why". The tribunal's response to this was: "It was notable that there was no third option in <mask>'s mind, such as a different disciplinary outcome." The tribunal found the BBC's processes to have given an "apparently cavalier disregard for any of the accepted norms of a fair disciplinary process", and that there was a "deeply ingrained cultural expectation within the organisation of sacrificial accountability". Linwood was awarded £80,000 in damages, and it was later revealed that the BBC had spent £498,000 defending the claim. In late September 2016, <mask> was appointed as the BBC's Director of Radio and Education, in succession to Helen Boaden. He took up his new position in late October 2016.The Daily Telegraph described a key facet of his role as attracting younger listeners and viewers to the BBC. In September 2020 the new director-general Tim Davie removed <mask> from his new smaller executive board. <mask> left the BBC that year to become president and vice-chancellor of University of the Arts London in spring 2021.

<mask> (September 8, 1873 – January 18, 1970) was an American religious leader and educator who served as the ninth president of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church) from 1951 until his death in 1970. Ordained an apostle and member of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles in 1906, <mask> was a general authority for nearly 64 years, longer than anyone else in LDS Church history, except Eldred G. Smith (although Smith was in office for 66 years, he was not active therein for the final 34 years). Early life
The third child of <mask> and <mask>, <mask> was born on his father’s farm in Huntsville, Utah Territory, about  east of Ogden. <mask>'s mother was a Welsh immigrant from Merthyr Tydfil, and his father was a Scottish immigrant from Caithness. In 1880, after the death of <mask>’s two older sisters, Margaret and Ellena, his father was called on an LDS mission to his native Scotland, where he proselytized for two years. In his father's absence, seven-year-old <mask> had additional family responsibilities and helped his mother. <mask>'s grandmother bequeathed $5,000 to <mask>'s mother upon her death and directed that "every cent ... be used for the education of the children."This money allowed <mask>, his brother Thomas, and his younger sisters Jeanette and Annie to attend the University of Utah. <mask> graduated in 1897 as valedictorian and class president. Immediately afterward, he was called on a mission to Great Britain. Like his father, he presided over the Scottish district of the church. Early in his mission, he was impressed by a motto that he saw inscribed on a building in Stirling, "What E'er Thou Art, Act Well Thy Part". This message became a source of inspiration throughout his life. Career in education

They eventually had seven children, one dying as a young child.For his first three years at Weber, <mask> taught mainly religion and literature classes. On April 17, 1902, <mask> was appointed principal of Weber, succeeding the founding principal, Louis F. Moench, who had resigned after nine years in the position. One of his first actions as principal was to organize a school paper. He oversaw the inauguration of sports programs at Weber, with men's and women's basketball teams organized during <mask>'s tenure. In 1905, they won their baseball game against the University of Utah. In 1905, church apostles John W. Taylor and Matthias F. Cowley resigned from the Quorum of the Twelve due to disagreement over the manifesto forbidding polygamy, and apostle Marriner W. Merrill died in early 1906.With three vacancies, George F. Richards, <mask> F. Whitney, and <mask> were called as apostles in the LDS Church's April 1906 general conference. <mask> was 32 years of age at the time. Prior to this appointment to full-time service, <mask> had planned on a career in education and educational administration. He stayed active in education even after his appointment, continuing as principal of the Weber Stake Academy until 1908 (replaced by Wilford M. McKendrick). <mask> stayed at Weber Stake Academy to see the completion of new building projects that he had begun. He also served on the Weber school's board of trustees until 1922, and on the University of Utah's board of regents from 1921 to 1922. <mask> enjoyed a long, personal friendship with John F. Fitzpatrick, who published the Salt Lake Tribune from 1924 until 1960.They met weekly for breakfast to discuss the betterment of Utah. Fitzpatrick organized the Newspaper Agency Corporation, a joint

In October 1906, <mask> became an assistant to the superintendent of the Deseret Sunday School Union. At the time, Joseph F. Smith was both President of the Church and Superintendent of the Sunday School, so many of the actual duties of the Sunday School were performed by <mask>. After Smith's death in November 1918, <mask> became the Sunday School superintendent. In 1920, the First Presidency assigned <mask> to make a worldwide tour of the missions of the LDS Church with Hugh J. Cannon, who recorded the journey of some 61,646 miles. They opened a new mission to China, traveled to Hawaii (where <mask> had a vision, promising to build a school near the temple), and visited Samoa, Tonga, New Zealand, and Palestine.In Palestine they met Wilford Booth and visited Armenian Latter-day Saints. <mask> returned to Utah on Christmas Eve 1921. From 1923 until 1925, <mask> served as president of the church's European Mission, headquartered in London, with the responsibility of all LDS Church functions in the British Isles and supervision of mission presidents. In this position, <mask> first used the slogan "every member a missionary" for outreach promotion. The philosophy has since been taught as a general theme throughout the church. In 1934, <mask> became Second Counselor in the First Presidency under Heber J. Grant.He served in that capacity until Grant's death in May 1945, and when Grant was succeeded by George Albert Smith, <mask> was called to continue as Second Counselor in the new Presidency.

Utah underfunded the institutions and in 1953 the governor, J. Bracken Lee, offered to give them back to the LDS Church. <mask>, then president of the church, said he would accept them and the proposal was placed on the 1954 election ballot. Since it failed to pass, the three institutions remained property of the state.<mask> guided the remaining LDS school in Utah, Brigham Young University (BYU) into a full four-year university. <mask> was the fourth Commissioner of Church Education in 1920 and 1921. In honor of his service, the BYU School of Education was named the McKay School of Education. Weber State University's school of education also carries his name. President of the LDS Church

He served in the presidency under church president Grant, and then under George Albert Smith Smith until 1951.In 1950 he also became President of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles when his predecessor George F. Richards passed, making <mask> the second most senior apostle after the church's president. He was set apart as president of the church on April 9, 1951 upon Smith's death. He was 77 years old upon assuming the presidency, and served for 19 years until his death. During this time, the number of members and stakes in the LDS Church nearly tripled, from 1.1 million to 2.8 million, and 184 to 500 respectively. <mask> was an outspoken critic of communism, opposing its perceived atheist

texts: underpinnings and denial of freedom of choice. Similarly, communist nations generally forbid proselytizing by the LDS Church and most other religions. In 1951, <mask> began plans for what eventually became BYU-Hawaii.In 1954 he made another trip around the world, visiting Brazil, South Africa, Fiji, Tonga, and other countries. Under <mask>'s administration, the LDS Church's stance on Africans holding the priesthood was softened. Beginning in the mid-1950s, members of suspected African descent no longer needed to prove their lineage was not African, allowing dark-skinned members to receive the priesthood unless it was proved that they were of African descent. This policy improved proselytizing in racially mixed areas, such as South America and South Africa. Blacks of verifiable African descent (including most in the United States) were not permitted to hold the priesthood until eight years after <mask>'s death. Beginning in 1961, the LDS Church spearheaded the Priesthood Correlation Program. By the 1970s, all church organizations were placed under direct priesthood leadership.These organizations became known as auxiliary organizations, which continue to the present. Film director Cecil B. DeMille consulted with <mask> during the production of his 1956 epic film The Ten Commandments, forming a friendship until DeMille's death. <mask> invited DeMille to BYU, where he delivered a commencement address in 1957. <mask> regularly traveled until his 90s. His deteriorating health in the mid-1960s ultimately led to the appointment of three additional counselors in the First Presidency, as existing members were increasingly infirm and often unable to preside at meetings. By 1968, the First Presidency was composed of six members, larger than it had been at the death of Brigham Young in 1877. <mask>'s counselors in the First Presidency were Stephen L Richards

<mask> (; 18 August 191225 November 1985) was an Italian novelist, poet, translator and children's books author. Her novel La storia (History) is included in the Bokklubben World Library List of 100 Best Books of All Time. Life and career
<mask> was born in Rome in 1912, the daughter of Irma (née Poggibonsi), a schoolteacher, and <mask>. Her mother came from a Jewish family in Modena. When she was a teenager Morante discovered that Francesco Lo Monaco, a family neighbor, was her biological father. Except for a brief period during World War II, she resided in Rome until her death in 1985. Morante started writing at an early age.Without having much support from her parents, she relied mostly on self-education. She began writing short stories in the mid-1930s. Some were published in various publications and journals, including periodicals for children. Her first book, a collection of short stories called Il Gioco Segreto (The Secret Game), was published in 1941. In the same year she married fellow novelist and film critic Alberto Moravia. In 1942 she wrote her first children's book, Le Bellissime avventure di Caterì dalla Trecciolina (republished in 1959 as Le straordinarie avventure di Caterina). During the German occupation of Italy at the end of World War II, <mask> and Moravia, fearful because of their Jewish heritage, fled Rome to repair in Southern Lazio, in a village near Fondi and where there were several poor families of shepherds, called in the past, with an offensive term, "ciociari" in the modern Roman dialect.The experience would inspire Morante's La storia (1974) and Moravia's La Ciociara (translated in English in 1957 as "Two Women" and later made into a film by Vittorio De Sica). During her time in the territory of Fondi, she began translating the work of Katherine Mansfield. Morante decided to briefly return

At the end of the war, <mask> and Moravia met American translator William Weaver, who helped them to break into the English-speaking market. Her first novel, 1948's Menzogna e sortilegio, won the Viareggio Prize, and was published in the United States in 1951 as House of Liars. Despite her international success, Morante found the English translation quite disappointing. Morante's next novel, L'isola di Arturo, was published in 1957 and won the Strega Prize.In 1961 Morante and Moravia separated, without divorcing, and Morante's writing became more sporadic. She destroyed much of the work written during that period, although she did publish a novel, The Andalusian Shawl (1963), and a poem, The Adventure. Her next work, Il mondo salvato dai ragazzini (The World Saved by Children), a mix of poetry and songs mostly addressed to her new lover, artist Bill Morrow, was published in 1968. In 1963 Pier Paolo Pasolini invited Morante to select the music for his film The Gospel According to St. Matthew. She also collaborated in casting the actors. In 1974 Morante published La storia, a book chronicling the events surrounding Rome during World War II. It became a national bestseller in Italy, partially due to Morante's insistence that publisher Einaudi would put it out in an economical paperback edition.Despite its commercial success, the book provoked furious and at times negative reactions from left-wing literary critics, who disliked its anti-ideological tone. After Pier Paolo Pasolini wrote a negative review of the book, Morante broke off their friendship. La storia was adapted into a Rai television series in 1986. Morante's final novel, Aracoeli (1982), has been perceived as a


texts:
 summary of all the motifs and trends present in her writing, such as the innocence of childhood and the importance of creating fantastic worlds to escape from dreary realities. The first English-language biography of Morante, A Woman of Rome, by Lily Tuck, was published in 2008. Major themes
Morante cultivated a love for music, books and cats. Her favorite books included The Iliad, Don Quixote, and Hamlet.She was also interested in Freudian psychology, Plato and Simone Weil. Southern Italy is also used as the backdrop for much of her work. Most of Morante's greatest works are shaped by her choices and experiences in life and are reflected in her protagonists. One of the central themes in Morante's work is Narcissism. The majority of Morante's leading characters use autobiography as a way to seek self-therapy and hope. Narration becomes a leading tool. Her writing is essential for the formation of a positive consciousness about her personal memories.Another important aspect of Morante's work is the metaphor of love. According to her, love can be passion and obsession, and can lead to despair or destruction. This trajectory is connected to her love for a nine-year-old boy when she was only two and a half years old. According to her, her first love was a heaven, but then it transformed into a hell. The metaphor of love can easily be traced back to one of her most famous poems, "Alibi." Love and Narcissism are themes well connected to each other. Most of Morante's characters seek love, not because they have true feelings for the person they fell in love with, but because they need to cover the feelings of emptiness from their childhood.It is through love and narcissism that Morante introduces other themes such as the role of motherhood and the meaning of childhood experiences.

<mask> was born and raised in Westport, Connecticut to parents Camille and <mask>, both Italian-American hairdressers. She graduated from Staples High School, in Westport, Connecticut in 1991 and from the University of Wisconsin-Madison in 1995. [4] She also holds two Honorary Doctorate Degrees, one from the University of Wisconsin-Madison in Humanities, and another from Bates College in Maine. <mask> began photographing professionally with Buenos Aires Herald in Argentina in 1996 with, as she says, "no previous photographic training”. In the late 1990s, she moved back to the United States and freelanced for the Associated Press in New York City, only to move back to South America less than one year later.Focusing on Cuba and the effect of communism on the public, Addario made a name for herself. She moved to India a few years later to photograph under the Associated Press, leaving the United States. While living in India, Addario traveled through Nepal, Afghanistan, and Pakistan, focusing on humanitarian and women's issues. After the attacks on the World Trade Center in 2001, Addario resolved to photograph Afghanistan and Pakistan under the Taliban. While in Pakistan, <mask> was given her big break and put on rotation for The New York Times. During this time, she “used her gender to get inside the women’s Madrases to interview and photograph the most devout Pakistani women.” <mask> spoke at length with her subjects, inspiring her to use photography to “dispel stereotypes or misconceptions; of presenting the counterintuitive.”

In 2003 and 2004, Addario photographed the Iraq war in Baghdad for The New York Times. She has since covered conflicts in Afghanistan, Iraq, Darfur, Republic of the Congo, and Haiti.She has covered stories throughout the Middle East and Africa. In August 2004 she turned her attention to Africa, focusing on Chad and Sudan. She has photographed for The

<mask>, 7th Baron <mask>  (born 17 June 1939) is a British peer, author, and veteran monarchist. In 1941, at the age of two, he succeeded his first cousin once removed, Richard Hanbury-Tracy, 6th Baron Sudeley, to the Barony of Sudeley and until the House of Lords Act 1999 sat as a hereditary peer. A member of the Conservative Party all his adult life, he was sometime President and also Chairman of the Conservative Monday Club for seventeen years. He is Vice-Chancellor of the International Monarchist League, and President of the Traditional Britain Group. Early life and education

He was one of the hereditary peers expelled from the Upper House by the House of Lords Act 1999. He spoke out against the reform of the Lords, asking, "If it isn't broken why mend it?" He also said that since he believed inherited titles were "inextricably" tied to the monarchy that it was "odd that they just want to touch one institution and not the other". He also cited the wealth of experience that the Lords had built up.In 1985 he was elected a Vice-Chancellor of the International Monarchist League. Since the early 1970s, <mask> has been active in the Conservative Monday Club of which he became president in February 1991. He wrote for them a leading essay on "The Role of Heredity in Politics", produced a Club Policy Paper against Lords Reform in December 1979, and in 1991 they published his booklet entitled, and arguing for, The Preservation of the House of Lords, with a Foreword by parliamentarian John Stokes. In September 2001, the Conservative Party leadership candidate Iain Duncan Smith  said the Monday Club was a "viable organisation… in a sense what the party is about". However, six weeks later, after becoming leader, he publicly distanced the party from the Monday Club until it ceased to "promulgate or discuss policies relating to race"; he also indicated that no Conservative MPs should contribute to Right Now!, a

<mask> was a college football player at the University of Pittsburgh, the first athlete to receive an athletic subsidization at the school, and, possibly, an early professional football player. He later made millions of dollars in the oil industry and became a trustee and significant benefactor to the university and its athletic department. His hobbies included philanthropy, scientific research and agriculture. His  estate in Gibsonia, Pennsylvania was devoted to a large extent to fruit trees. Early life
<mask> was born near Delmont, Pennsylvania in Westmoreland County, where his grandfather, <mask>, had established a flour mill and a sawmill after immigrating from England. His parents, Isaac and <mask>, later operated the mills and, as a youth, <mask> worked in them. College football
<mask> first attended Indiana Normal School (now Indiana University of Pennsylvania).While playing in practice games against the Western University of Pennsylvania (WUP), now named the University of Pittsburgh, <mask> impressed Bert Smyers, the founder and captain of the WUP football team. In order to facilitate <mask> to switch schools and play football for WUP, Smyers helped to arrange for various classes at the university to pay for <mask>' room, board, and tuition. Thus in 1891, <mask> became Pitt's first subsidized athlete as a star 210 pound tackle on Pitt's football team. <mask> graduated from the university with a degree in mechanical engineering in 1895. <mask>, also participated in the universities track and field team, and in 1894, additionally served as an Assistant Librarian at the university.

 then-amateur Allegheny Athletic Association. The club in 1893 was suspected heavily of secretly paying its players, making them professionals.Documents discovered a half-century later showed that on November 21, 1892, Pudge Heffelfinger, an all-American guard from Yale, was paid $500 (US dollars) to play for Allegheny against the rival Pittsburgh Athletic Club. It is unknown if <mask> was paid by Allegheny to play football with the club. In 1894, <mask> jumped to the Pittsburgh Athletic Club. That year, during a game against Allegheny, quarterback A. S. Valentine was thrown out of the game after coming to the aid of James Van Cleve during a fight against <mask>. After several appeals, Valentine left the field reportedly "crying like a baby" by the local media. During a second game that season, <mask> was thrown out of the game for punching Allegheny's Sport Donnelly. <mask> never liked Donnelly; during games when the two lined up against each other, Donnelly would pull <mask>' long-flowing hair.<mask> would usually defend himself with a strenuous poke at Donnelly, and often ended up on the sideline as in this game. <mask> married Claudine Willison on November 22, 1894. The couple had two sons, both of whom were killed: Joseph Graham <mask> as an aviator during World War I and the other, Merle, died at age 10 in a traffic accident in Pittsburgh. After the death of his wife, <mask> married, in 1929, his secretary, the former Edith Lehm. The couple had a son, <mask> <mask>. Oil industry

 together.Their first well came in 1896 and six more soon gushed from the same lease. Benedum and Trees developed a dozen other rich pools in West Virginia with varying success up to 1900. Superstition played a big part in their decisions of where to drill. In one instance, a blind farmer once told them he had envisioned oil gushing out of a hill on his farm and shooting up over a tree. <mask> and Benedum then decided to drill on that spot. As a result, a well gushed just as the blind man had dreamed. Another time the two men heard of a natural rock-formation arrow which legend said pointed to treasure.Benedum sighted along the arrow while <mask> moved back and forth in a straight line from it. They drilled the chosen spot and again struck oil. Over the years, the men developed oil fields for Marie of Romania in Ploiești. Those fields were taken over by Nazi Germany during World War II and became a target of the war's oil campaign, such as Operation Tidal Wave. Ploieşti was captured by Soviet troops in August 1944. <mask> and Benedum also founded wells in Illinois, West Texas, Florida (with Clem S. Clarke of Shreveport, Louisiana), Mexico, Colombia, and throughout South America. Their West Texas discoveries were among the most significant in his career.Untouched and despised by other oil men, this area has since poured out a billion barrels, with reserves estimated at another billion. On May 19, 1943 while talking to his partner Mike Benedum in their company headquarters at the Benedum-Trees Building, Trees suddenly slumped forward in his chair and died of a heart attack. Legacy

 University of Pittsburgh's Board of Trustees. An important benefactor for the University of Pittsburgh and its athletic department, in 1912 he donated $100,000 for the construction of the original Trees Gymnasium and Trees Stadium/Field that sat near the site of the present day Veterans Administration Hospital in Oakland. Today, a short distance from those now demolished original structures, two university facilities bear his name: Trees Field and Trees Hall, a multipurpose recreation and varsity athletics facility that opened in 1962. Trees also donated funds to the Pitt Band, $75,000 to the construction of Eberly Hall, and purchased $200,000 worth of bonds to help pay for the construction of Pitt Stadium.Until his death, his generosity to the university earned him the reputation as "a true Pitt man" and "Call on Joe" became a byword when the university was in need.

<mask> (9 September 1838 – 2 February 1909) was a flagbearer in the Union Army who received the Medal of Honor for his actions during the American Civil War. Born in Prague, he immigrated to Texas early in life and made a living protecting convoys on the American frontier. An Abolitionist, he is known to have assisted the Underground Railroad before the outbreak of the war in 1861. Karpeles subsequently volunteered for the Union Army, carrying the battle standard for the 46th Massachusetts Volunteer Infantry Regiment during an expedition to North Carolina. He then joined the veteran 57th Massachusetts Volunteer Infantry Regiment. During the Battle of the Wilderness, his unit suffered extensive casualties as the Union's right flank collapsed. Karpeles stood his ground, rallying a number of other men to hold their positions during the fight until sundown.Kaepeles was wounded later in the campaign, forcing his retirement from the military. He spent the rest of his life in Washington, D.C. first in business and later working for the United States Department of the Treasury living in Washington until his death. Biography
<mask> was born in Prague to a prominent and wealthy Jewish family, spending much of his early life around farms and ranches near the city. There, he and his brother Emile had been baptized, a requirement for attendance in Catholic school, and Emile took to the new religion, though <mask> was taught by his family to "lay low" about his religion. Karpeles moved to Galveston, Texas, in 1849 at age 11. Emile, 7 years his senior, had preceded him there and was running a successful dry goods store and <mask> intended to enroll in school and prepare to apprentice at the store. The town was predominately German in ancestry but had seen an influx of immigrants in the decade before.Studies early in his life left Karpeles fluent in English, French,

texts: German, Greek and Czech, and in Texas he also became proficient using the knife, lasso, rifle, pistol and saber as weapons. Karpeles' time in Texas initially marked mostly by school and work, which he ultimately found unsatisfactory, and so he volunteered to join supply convoys the store used to ship goods around Texas. In this work, he helped repel attacks and defend passengers, sometimes joining the Texas Rangers in the process. In this work, he found great satisfaction, especially with the outdoors and the sense of adventure. The work did distance him from his brother as he sought more independence. Family records suggest details of Karpeles' life that other sources have not verified. Becoming more involved with the Texas Rangers and their informal style, Karpeles occasionally accompanied the Rangers to expeditions in Mexico and to conflicts involving Native Americans.Accounts from his family claim he participated in a number of skirmishes, but documentation of his activities during this time have not been found in state or national archives. In 1854, he relocated to Brownsville, Texas, where, according to family records, he was involved with two local militia groups, the Brownsville Guard and the Brownsville Tigers, protecting traders and caravans on the frontier during the late 1850s, though details and locations of any skirmishes are missing. Still, Karpeles was known to dislike both violence against women and children and slavery. During this time he is believed to have been involved in the Underground Railroad, helping escaped slaves find refuge with both Mexican and Seminole sympathizers. After Texas voted to seceded from the Union on 23 February 1861, Karpeles and his brother split. Emile enlisted in the Confederate States Army and <mask> moved to Springfield, Massachusetts hoping for a job with one of his brother's business contacts, taking a

 job as a shop clerk. There, he began to make friends in the local abolitionist movement and helped the local stop in the Underground Railroad, though this was less risky than Texas.Military service

Encouraged by other abolitionists, Karpeles enlisted in a nine-month term with the 46th Massachusetts Volunteer Infantry Regiment and began training on 24 September 1862, being promoted to corporal before the end of training because of his prior experience. At this time, he volunteered to be a standard bearer, a volunteer role where he would not be armed and would carry the unit's battle standard, an assignment considered both dangerous and prestigious. Assigned to Company A, he was a part of a Union expedition to Goldsboro, North Carolina and served with distinction in several engagements including the Battle of Kinston, Battle of White Hall and then the Battle of Goldsboro Bridge through December 1862. A letter about Karpeles written by regimental commander W. S. Shurtless, remarked of the "Promptness with which (Karpeles) came upon the line of battle and the firmness with which he stood his ground, though his flag  was several times pierced by bullets of the enemy, were so conspicuous as to be the subject of remark and commendation." Finishing this campaign, the unit returned to Springfield and was mustered out on 29 July 1863. Of the experience, Karpeles later wrote it was "inspiring" to be a flag bearer but also found that, "A soldier's life is a balancing act of striving to exercise control over one's mind and body despite unhealthful, wretched living conditions." Karpeles then decided to rejoin the army in late 1863, answering a call from Colonel William Francis Bartlett who had mustered 1,038 men to form the 46th Massachusetts Volunteer Infantry Regiment, a unit consisting of veterans who had served at least nine months, as part of 1st Brigade, 1st


texts:
 Division of IX Corps.There, Karpeles was promoted to sergeant and assigned to Company E, tasked with training and is believed to have been the only Jewish member of the unit. Again he requested to carry the flag, and at Bartlett's recommendation, he was named color bearer for the regiment, with the rank of color sergeant. The unit left New England on 17 April 1864 traveled by foot and train to Washington, D.C., arriving on 25 April and encamped. During this time, the unit paraded past President Abraham Lincoln during a review, a memory Karpeles particularly cherished. Medal of Honor action

In May 1864, the unit marched to join Ulysses S. Grant's Army of the Potomac in the middle of the Overland Campaign, arriving near Spotsylvania County, Virginia on 6 May, joining it after an overnight march hastened as a result of the unfolding Battle of the Wilderness. Advancing through difficult terrain and low visibility owing to musket smoke, Karpeles was assigned to Company H in the regiment's leading element. Once it made contact with the Confederate Army, the 57th was heavily engaged in brutal fighting; nearly half of the 548 men who entered the battle became casualties.The unit ended up taking heavier casualties than any other regiment at the battle, and had one of the highest casualty rates of the war, including Bartlett, who was wounded in the head by a bullet. The right wing of the Union line crumbled under Confederate guns, causing a "general stampede" as other regiments began a disorderly retreat through the 57th, causing some of the unit to begin to lose its cohesion. Karpeles attempted to rally standing on a tree stump and entreating men who were retreating to re-form and make a stand, an action that could be seen as far back as the brigade command, as remembered by Brigadier General James S. Wadsworth. The action motivated about 34 men of the 57th to

 rally around Karpeles, followed by men of other retreating regiments from Pennsylvania and New York. He later recounted the action for Captain John Anderson, a company commander who wrote a book of the campaign. "We succeeded in forming these men into a fighting line and ordered them to advance on the approaching rebels, and by a rapid discharge of firearms managed to check the enemy." In the confusion of the battle, Confederate forces advanced past the rallied line, and passed it again in a retreat.A band of about 20 held this line through sunset, where it crawled back to Union lines during a lull in the battle. Anderson and Bartlett filed reports on the action with the Adjutant General's office on 18 April 1870, with the award granted 11 days later. <mask> was the first Jew to be awarded the Medal of Honor. In total, six Jews would be granted the medal for an actions during the American Civil War. Later service

In the following days, the 57th advanced to the next engagement at Spotsylvania Court House where it was engaged from 9 to 12 May, relying on an inspired charge with fixed bayonets intended to intimidate Confederate troops. But the progress after the first few days was slow, and after several days the regiment continued its march in pursuit of Lee's army. Its next major engagement came in the Battle of North Anna on 24 May as part of the brigade of Brigadier General James H. Ledlie.Amid an ill-conceived attack ordered by an intoxicated Ledlie against strong Confederate positions, the 57th advanced across open ground and was nearly annihilated in the process. Karpeles was wounded in the leg and fell, but got up to continue the fight until his commander pulled the flag from him, and blood loss made it impossible to continue to advance. Other soldiers helped Karpeles back to the lines as the regiment was decimated. After the charge deteriorated,


texts:
 only 199 men in the regiment remained ready to fight. Karpeles was unconscious for several days and remained in the care of doctors and not allowed to return to combat until October. He rejoined the unit during the siege of Petersburg and returned to duty during the Battle of Poplar Springs Church and later the Battle of Vaughan Road. But the wound reopened and became aggravated once he attempted to return to the lines, and he collapsed on 20 December 1864 during a raid, ending his military service.He is known as one of the longest-serving color bearers of the war who did not receive a crippling wound or injury. Later life
Karpeles was evacuated to Mount Pleasant General Hospital in Washington, D.C. where his leg was treated. Initially thought to require an amputation, it was saved as part of the efforts of a 16-year-old volunteer, Sara Mundheim, who convinced doctors to allow her family to care for Karpeles in their home. His recovery would continue through the end of the war, and after that time, he and Mundheim married. The couple had a daughter, Theresa, born in December 1870. The family set up a hat shop catering to the wealthy in Washington, D.C., and Karpeles took to overseeing sales and bookkeeping while his wife handled manufacturing. The family subsequently lived in a modest estate in a predominately Jewish area of the city.Sara died giving birth to a third child in 1872 and on her deathbed insisted Karpeles marry her sister, Henrietta. The second and third child from his original marriage died young, but his second marriage bore three sons and three daughters. Karpeles later became ingrained in Washington society, valued as a speaker at political events and among veterans groups. In 1875 he was hired as a clerk in the United States Department of the Treasury in a job that paid $900 a year, but was known to spend much of it both on parties for

 people he cared about and for loans to friends in need. He was known among lawmakers and diplomats alike, and was known to have been familiar to Presidents Chester A. Arthur, Grant and William McKinley. He used these connections to advocate for labor causes, notably including a shortened working day and also became involved in the veterans organization, the Grand Army of the Republic, where he advocated for Memorial Day. He later also was a founding member and vice president of the Medal of Honor Legion, which helped to clarify the meaning of the award from a politically-based one to an honored award bestowed specifically for valor in combat.With the 1898 outbreak of the Spanish–American War, <mask> expressed a desire to return to the military, but age and a limp developed as a result of his wartime injury made this impossible. <mask> died in 1909 and was buried in the cemetery of the Washington Hebrew Congregation, with a gravestone that includes the Medal of Honor emblem. His medal was later lost in a fire. Medal of Honor citation
