Page 4 paragraph 4: "In 1906, Dr. Raymond Burke began his career as a geology professor at / Miami University. Previously a part of the Oberlin Glee Club, Burke / wanted to see a similar group at Miami. Fortunately for Burke, then / university President Dr. Guy Potter Benton had a similar vision for / a Miami Glee Club. In January 1907, Burke was offered a new position. / Benton mentioned the formation of the Glee Club, which Burke / willingly obliged to heading. The future of the Miami Men's Glee / Club had begun." Page 4 paragraph 5: "The first Glee Club only had eight members; two for each vocal / part. However, it rivaled in popularity with the accomplished Miami / football team. Burke began his search for more singers in fraternities / because that was where many of the 'better singers' were." Page 4 paragraph 6: "The following year, Burke developed a 'top secret' tune that the / Club would present at their first concert, on February 28, 1908. / the song became the Miami Fight Song we know today. Now with / membership at '21 strong,' that night at Benton Hall (now Hall / Auditorium) was something to behold. Following the success of the / new fight song, Burke began a project of creating a meaningful Alma / Mater, premiering it in 1912. Both of these pieces have sustained for the past 100-plus years at Miami and continue to be part of the / traditional set of club." Page 4 paragraph 7: "Today, the Glee Club is led by Dr. Jeremy D. Jones, the director of the / group. The chorus of approximately 100 men is led by Dr. Jones and an / accomplished executive leadership board." Page 5 paragraph 1: "The Ohio National Guard / As Governor of the state of Ohio, Mike DeWine will serve as / Commander-In-Chief of the Ohio National Guard. Established in 1788 / as a strategic reserve, today's Ohio National Guard has evolved into / an operational force and necessity, comprised of nearly / 17,000 soldiers and airmen who serve their community, state / and nation. The Ohio National Guard is responsible for fighting/ America's wars, securing and supporting the homeland and sustaining / enduring partnerships at home and around the globe. Through / domestic response to tornadoes, hurricanes, or other natural / disasters or providing community support to programs such as Guard / Care (which provides health care services to medically-underserved / areas); the Ohio National Guard is "Always Ready, Always There' for / the great citizens of Ohio and the nation." Page 5 paragraph 2: "Ohio has rich military history full of nation significance, six / U.S. Presidents served in the Nation Guard, three of which called / the Ohio National Guard home. Known at one time as the "President's / Own," the Ohio National Guard is proud to add to its rich history by / serving its new Commander-In-Chief, Governor-elect Mike DeWine." Page 5 paragraph 3: "Today, under the direction of Sergeant Major Shawn Hayslett, the / Ohio National Guard Joint Color Guard consists of members from / the Ohio Army and Air National Guard. These members volunteer / to serve on the joint Color Guard and support hundreds of statewide / events each year. They spend countless hours on their own practicing / to ensure they provide the most dignified and professional bearing of colors." Page 5 paragraph 4: "The Ohio Commodores / Founded by Ohio Governor James A. Rhodes in 1966, during a ceremony / at the Perry Monument at Put-In-Bay, the Association of Ohio / Commodores has been in existence for over 46 years. Named for the / hero of the Battle of Lake Erie in 1813, Commodore Oliver Hazard / Perry, Governor Rhodes established the Executive Order of the Ohio / Commodores (which encompasses membership in the Association) / to honor 60 Ohio businessmen who accompanied him on Ohio's first / international trade mission. Since then, over 300 men and women have / been appointed to the Executive order of the Ohio Commodores as / recognition of their contributions to economic development in their / communities, and to the State of Ohio." Pages 6-7 contains a list of Governors of the State of Ohio Page 8 paragraph 1: "The Ohio Statehouse / The Ohio Statehouse is the state capitol building and seat of / government for the state of Ohio. Built between 1839 and 1861, it / is one of the oldest working statehouses in the United States. Upon / completion in 1861, it was the second-largest building in the country; / only the U.S. Capitol was larger." Page 8 paragraph 2: " The Greek Revival style building is located on Capitol Square in / downtown Columbus. The capitol houses Ohio General Assembly, / consisting of the House of Representatives and the Senate. It / also contains the ceremonial offices of the governor, lieutenant / governor, state treasurer, and state auditor. The Statehouse was / opened to legislators and the public in 1857 when the House and / Senate began meeting in their respective chambers and most of the / executive offices were occupied. The Statehouse has been designated / a National Historic Landmark by the Secretary of the U.S. Department / of the Interior." Page 8 paragraph 3: "The Ohio Statehouse is home to a substantial collection of artwork, / including several large paintings in the Rotunda. The oldest of these / is 'Perry's Victory on Lake Erie' which was painted by William Powell / and completed in 1865. The painting depicts a scene from the Battle / of Lake Erie, which took place during the War of 1812. Commodore / Oliver Hazard Perry was in command of the U.S. Navy during the / battle. Perry and his men are shown fleeing the damaged flagship, / the Lawrence, and headed to the Niagara. In spite of this setback, / Perry was able to turn the tide of the battle and come away with a / resounding victory. It was a notable historic moment because it was / the first and only time that the British Navy - the greatest navy / in the world for a long time - lost all of its ships during a battle. / Perry served under the command of William Henry Harrison, who / later went on to become the first president of the United States to / be elected from Ohio. After the battle, Perry sent the message to / Harrison: 'We have met the enemy and they are ours.' This battle is / also known for Perry's famous flag, ironically carrying the message / 'Don't give up the ship.'" Page 9 paragraph 1: "On the grounds of the building a large statuary group by Hermon / MacNeil, the William McKinley Monument, honors and remembers / Ohio governor and U.S. president William McKinley. The floor of the / Statehouse rotunda is composed of almost 5,000 individual pieces of / marble, all cut and fitted by hand. The design at the center of the / floor traces the development of the United States: the 13 stones in / the center represent the original colonies; the three rings symbolize / the areas of territory that enlarged the nation; surrounding the rings / is a starburst with 32 points, one for each of the states in the Union / when the floor was laid down; and surrounding the entire design is / a gray band representing the U.S. Constitution." Page 9 paragraph 2: "The Great Seal of Ohio and the state motto, 'With God, all things / are possible,' are engraved at the foot of the steps leading to the / west entrance." Page 9 paragraph 3: "Also in the Rotunda is the Lincoln and Soldiers' Monument by Thomas / Dow Jones. It features one of the few busts of Abraham Lincoln / that we know for certain was created from life. Jones traveled to / Springfield, Illinois in late December 1860 and spent about 6 weeks/ there, working on a clay version of the bust for about an hour a day / (the amount of time Lincoln was willing to allot him as he prepared / speeches and wrote letters). As the best was nearing completion, / Jones asked Lincoln what he thought of it, and Lincoln retorted / with, 'I think it looks very much like the critter [himself].' When / Lincoln needed to leave Springfield in February to begin his journey / to Washington D.C., Jones returned to Ohio with the clay busy / and used it as a model to create the marble one that we see in the / Rotunda today. The 'Lincoln and Soldiers' Monument' was completed / in 1871 and Governor Rutherford B. Hayes considered it one of his / most notable achievements as governor. A collection of the tools / T.D. Jones used as a sculptor can often be seen in one of the wood and / glass cases near the C.S.R.A.B office on the ground floor." Page 9 paragraph 4: "Shortly after completion, Abraham Lincoln was passing through Ohio / on his was to Washington D.C., and it was at the Statehouse where / Lincoln received the official telegram from the Electoral College / that proclaimed him president-elect." Page 9 paragraph 5: "The Ohio Statehouse is currently the only state capitol to display / the original state constitution document(s) for public view. A case in / the Ohio Statehouse Museum displays two original pages of each state / constitution - the first, which was written in 1802, and the current, / which was written in 1851." The back cover shows the ceremony's logo in the center of the page. At the bottom of the page, text reads, "Paid for by the DeWine Husted Inaugural Committee" |
