    Charles Gates Dawes wrote the lyrics to the song "It's All in the Game", a huge hit in 1958 for Tommy Edwards.

      No, he wrote the melody.
      Lyrics were written afterwards by Carl Sigmund.

    We love your videos and thanks for including Auguste Horch, who was a contemporary of Ferdinand Porsche and founded 'Horch' and well as Audi (two separate companies that were among the four that merged to create Auto Union in the early 1930s).

      Jackson hit well, but allowed three triples as a left fielder on defense. The scandal he abetter put the game in peril. He escaped a prison sentence. Forgive me (or don't) if he don't see the reason to honor him.
      Here's something to comfort you: it's pretty clear that the upcoming class of sports journalists, who have difficulty unfortunately the concept of "sportsmanship " are opening the doors of the Hall to steroid cheats. Maybe after they induct McGwire and Sosa they'll consider Jackson, too.

      Yes, as noted above. The main picture is Dr. Porsche's grandson FA 'Butzi' Porsche. The background photo is Dr. Porsche's son, Ferry.

    How can there be a modern high resolution picture of Ferdinand Porsche if he died in 1951?
    Doesn't even look like the same person on his wiki page.
