Politics, Theaters and Automobiles: Springfield, Ohio’s Rich History!

5 February 201716 September 2024

1 IMG_8051

After filling up on a hearty lunch, I returned to the Clark County Heritage Center in Springfield.  With so much history, I began my second session to cover the time period beginning in the 1900s up until the 1970s where the museum’s information about Clark County and Springfield ends.

DSC_0741

In the early 1900s,  Springfield, Ohio’s population was close to 60,000.  To celebrate their centennial in 1901 the city hosted Buffalo Bill’s Wild West show, a traveling performance which featured Greenville, Ohio native, Annie Oakley.  During this time, advances in transportation, farming equipment and entertainment made Springfield a popular location to live and visit.

Theodore Roosevelt was the President of the United States at this time and nearby Dayton residents, Wilbur and Orville Wright piloted the first airplane at Kitty Hawk.

By winter of 1903, three major fires claimed three lives in Springfield and destroyed an entire city block.

DSC_0779

Sully Jaymes was Springfield’s only African American attorney who represented the underprivileged African Americans.  A graduate of Boston University and the University of Michigan, Jaymes practiced law for over 50 years until his death in 1950.

In 1905, Gus Sun opened a vaudeville theater and booking agency in Springfield.  During this time, architect Frank Lloyd Wright designed and built a home for car magnate, Burton J. Westcott.

DSC_0831

By 1904, the Boys and Girls club was founded by AB Graham, which is known today as the 4H Club.  This agricultural organization teaches school-aged children about “farming techniques and home management”.  During the same year, International Harvester opened up a plant in Springfield to make trucks, bringing in a large number of jobs to the area.

DSC_0746

During Taft’s presidency, the Chakeres brothers open the city’s first movie theater in 1908 which would eventually lead to a total of eight movie houses around town.  The cost to see a move was only 50 cents back then  Following William Howard Taft, Woodrow Wilson takes office and the US enters into World War I.  Westcott Motor Car Company begins producing “The Westcott” between the years 1916 and 1926.  It would be the only automobile that would be manufactured in Springfield, rumored that the city lost the bid to Detroit for producing cars for the Ford Motor Company.   As Ohio braces for the Depression Era, racial tensions rise as riots break out among Springfield residents.  The Ohio National Guard is called in to preserve order.

DSC_0778

A very controversial event took place in Springfield in 1923 when the Klu Klux Klan held a rally at the fairgrounds.  These horrific, racially charged events were being held all over the nation in the 1920s, even in our nation’s capitol of Washington DC.

DSC_0827

Even in the midst of these thorny racial relationships of just a year ago, the city of Springfield is named the “Rose City” due to its large production of roses.

Amidst the Great Depression, George Rogers Clark Park is established in 1930 near Buck Creek with a reenactment of the Battle of Piqua taking place here to commemorate its 150th anniversary.  The opening of Cliff Park soon follows in 1932.

DSC_0751

Chakeres Theaters gain world wide recognition opening theaters across Ohio in the 1930s and the first service station, Bonded Oil, is built in Urbana.  As Springfield reaches the end of the 30’s World War II breaks out and the US comes to the aid of its allies after the Pearl Harbor bombing in 1941. Three Springfielders died in the attack and by 1943, Wittenberg University is set up to train Air Force Cadets to assist in the war efforts.

After World War II, the soldiers return home and only four years later the Korean War breaks out.  The Clark County Fair, first opened in 1854, moves to a larger space taking over the old Springfield Airport in 1947.  With an increase in population, Mercy Hospital opens in 1950 with the help of philanthropist Joseph Shouvlin.  There were currently 111,661 residents in Springfield at that time.

Eisenhower’s presidency would be the start of the Civil Rights movement and would continue as John F. Kennedy is sworn into office in 1960.  It was a victory for local African Americans when Robert C. Henry was the first black man elected to the Springfield City Commission and later becomes Mayor in 1966.    Taking over Henry’s post as Mayor in 1968 would be Springfield’s first female mayor, Betty Brunk.

DSC_0762

The 1970s brought about the interstate and I-70 draws businesses along the highway’s corridor.  The population of Springfield has reached upwards into the 150 thousands.  As the number of businesses increase, Springfield Mayor Robert Burton, plans to revitalize the downtown area, which has fallen into ruin over the years.  Another economic victory includes the opening of the Upper Valley Mall in 1971.

By the time Gerald Ford takes office, Robert Burton has made good on his promise to help Springfield and the New City Hall was constructed.

Fast forward to 2016 and there is a continued effort to revitalize the city of Springfield.  The downtown area is growing and new businesses are moving into spaces that were once left vacant.  Snyder Park has once again become a beautiful place to visit and the Farmer’s Market is thriving during the weekends at the Heritage Museum.  Rumor has it that even the Upper Valley Mall will be making changes in the near  future as well but plans have not been finalized.  During my return, it was an exciting time to live in Springfield and many residents came together to further the development of the city in a positive direction.  Who knows?  The difference one could make for Springfield may lead to noteriety at the Heritage Center’s Museum of Springfield history.

Pearl Harbor, A Sacred Memorial

15 September 201431 August 2024

There are certain events in history that leave such an impact on mankind, that if they occur during your lifetime, you will never forget where you were when you heard the news.  The invasion of Pearl Harbor is one of the those events.

I had been anticipating our visit to Pearl Harbor from the moment I learned I was going to Hawaii.  Realizing that this would be an emotional experience, I prepared myself mentally and packed an extra package of tissues as we arrived at the entrance to the Pearl Harbor National Monument.

Grounds at Pearl Harbor

Pearl Harbor is the most visited memorial on the Hawaiian island of Oahu.  We learned that, while the tickets are free, the park recommends that visitors reserve their tickets at least two months in advance or arrive early as there is a limited number distributed in the morning.

We woke up early that day and arrived in plenty of time to pick up our reserved tickets and browse the gift shop.  About 20 minutes later, we were boarding the shuttle bound for the USS Arizona.

While the tour provides a historical overview of the Japanese attack that occurred on  December 7, 1941,  Pearl Harbor is first and foremost a memorial…a remembrance of the 1,177 American soldiers that gave their lives defending the United States during World War II.

The monument was built in 1962 and is visited by approximately two million people annually.

USS Arizona Memorial

There were some rules and suggestions that we learned before visiting the monument.  For example, purses and camera bags are not permitted on the boat trip, so we rented a locker to store our personal items.  In addition, we opted to pay the minimal fee for the audio tour which provides a thorough overview of the site and details regarding the attack on Pearl Harbor.

As the boat made its way towards the memorial, we could see the modern, rectangular-like structure which was designed by Hawaiian architect Alfred Preis.  Straddling the hull of the sunken battleship, the USS Arizona Memorial accommodates approximately 200 visitors at one time.

USS Arizona Tour Guide

Our tour included a boat trip out to the memorial as well as a documentary video that took approximately 25 minutes to view.  The combined activities took approximately 75 minutes in total.  Complimentary brochures, available in over 30 languages are provided at the Pearl Harbor’s Visitor Center.

Oil from Pearl Harbor

From the memorial we could look down into the water to see the USS Arizona just below the waterline.  It is sad to imagine that over 1,100 crew went down with the battleship and their bodies have never been recovered.  For this reason, we were standing over hallowed ground, a burial site, deserving of our respect and honor.

Oil Spill at Pearl Harbor

Each day, over nine quarts of oil continues to surface from the tank below which held 1.5 million gallons.  A recent study was conducted in the mid-1990s to determine the effects of the ongoing leakage.  Scientists are concerned that an eruption could cause “catastrophic” damage, so the site is under continuous surveillance.

Pearl Harbor

Visiting the Pearl Harbor memorial was one of the highlights of my visit to Hawaii, not only to better understand the events of the Japanese attack on the military base, but to respectfully honor the soldiers who gave their lives to protect the United States of America.

Have you had the opportunity to visit Pearl Harbor?  I would love to hear your thoughts on your experience if you would kindly leave a message in the Comments Section below.  Many thanks for reading about my visit to Pearl Harbor and wishing you many Happy Travels.

I was hoping to try some of the local Hawaiian cuisine but I was distracted by the PBLTA sandwich with Pork Belly topped with lettuce, tomato and avocado and it was outstanding.

What to Eat: 

  • Kalua Pig:  Hawaii is famous for its Kalua Pig, similar to American pulled pork.
  • Poi:  Made from taro root which is similar to a potato, the poi we sampled was “pounded” into a thick starch.  This cooking technique results in a sticky pudding-like dessert which is purple in color.
  • Poke:  Similar to Japanese sashimi, yet the fish is cut into chunky cubes and usually served over a bed of rice.
