Considering The Sportswoman, 1924 to 1936: A Content Analysis

Abstract

On this, the first day of September, 1924, we, the Editors of the SPORTSWOMAN, make our bow to the public. After a long and laborious struggle, mainly on the part of schools and colleges, and recently on the part of the United States Field Hockey Association, women's athletics are at last coming into their own. We feel therefore that it is a propitious moment for the SPORTSWOMAN to enter the arena, confident that a woman's magazine, published by women, devoted to all forms of sports in which women take part, linking together the interests of all players and keeping them in touch with each other's achievements, will supply a real need. We have confidence also in our public.
