media type="custom" key="26012846" **Hockey in the 1930’s **  Hockey is a very violent sport that not just a normal person can play. You have to be able to take a hit and fight when the time comes. Back in the 1930’s players didn’t want to wear helmets. Not even the goalies wore their helmets. There were not as many rules as there are today. The skates were dull and on top of that the ice was bad it was bumpy and very hard to skate on. Hockey was a big sport with big name players. -From a girls perspective they liked to watch it but could not play it. -From a man’s perspective they got to play and they loved it. -Lower class people probably didn’t get to watch the games because it was the great depression. -Middle class people got to watc h it but were skinning bone to get in. -High class people got to watch games any time the wanted to.

= =

Many players only made $100 a season with a $0.50 a day budget for food while others like Leroy Paige were paid by the game. Baseball suffered, as many could not afford to pay even the $0.50 admission into the games. For many that was all they could afford. There was few that could afford the nickel for a ballpark hot dog, but that would be their only meal that day. At this time Black and White players didn't play in the same league.

= Men/Woman: = There really wasn't a difference between the view points of baseball in Men and Women. The Ticket Prices were also the same for both genders.



= = = Upper Class: =

The Upper Class went to the Majority of the games. They got to sit close the the field, and right behind the home plate. This class could afford the cost of the game, and didn't have to worry if the price went up or not because they were rich. The Upper Class could afford to get whatever they wanted at the game.

== __ Middle Class: __ The Middle Class didn't go to as many games as the Upper Class, but the went to more than the Lower Class. The Middle Class sat a little higher up than the Upper Class but not at the very top. They usually could afford a ticket, but not to go to a lot of games. It cost a nickel to get a hot dog at the game and if they wanted it, it was all they ate that day.

= = = = == =** __ Lower Class: __ **=

The Lower Class could only afford about one ticket a year, sometimes two. They couldn't afford to go to anymore games. This Class sat at the very top of the stadium, were there wasn't a good view. They didn't get anything to eat at the game because they couldn't afford it.

Golf is a relaxing fun sport. To get out there and feel the wind in your face as you’re teeing the ball up and getting ready to hit it. Bobby Jones to me is one of the best golfers there ever was. Then there were still four major tournaments and Bobby Jones became the first man to win all four. Which that is known as the Grand Slam. There was a lot of golfers in this era and a lot of them are well known but none more than Bobby Jones. Man’s point of view, it was a way to relax and forget about the Great Depression Women’s point of view, liked the golf’s but didn’t really watch it as much as the men did. Lower class’s point of view, didn’t watch it or go to it or even play it. Middle class’s point of view, when and some of the matches. High class’s point of view, when to a lot of the matches and played as well.
