A guy from my hometown... now you know the rest of the story.

LAURIUM — He’s widely known for his exploits on the football field.

But George Gipp likely would have played major league baseball — if he had not died tragically in 1920 in the prime of his youth.
And it is very likely the Notre Dame football legend would have been a member of the Chicago Cubs, who were avidly courting him.
Gipp was on the 1919 Laurium baseball team that captured the Upper Peninsula League championship by defeating Sault Ste. Marie that long ago summer.
The late Pete Baudino of Calumet saw Gipp play several times. Baudino lived to the age of 96 before passing away a few years ago.
“George Gipp was a great athlete,” Baudino said in a 1998 interview. “He could hit, run and field with the best of them.”
Baudino recalled a game in 1919 when Gipp collected two homers, two triples and two doubles in a doubleheader sweep of Marquette. He batted in nine runs that day.
“The homers he hit were well over the fence,” he said. “He turned singles in doubles and doubles into triples with his speed,” Baudino recalled.
Of course, Gipp, who hit .494 that season, had some help on the Laurium team.

Gipp, ironically, never played football for Calumet High.
The late Joe Mishica, a classmate of Gipp, remembered the day the future gridiron great picked up a football at practice, and dropkicked it some 90 yards.
“George was on his way to the pool hall …. he didn’t have time for football,” Mishica said.
Mishica went on to play football at Kalamazoo College and recalled the day his team met Notre Dame. Kalamazoo was a major team back then.
“I went to tackle him (Gipp) on a running play and he hit me as hard as I was ever hit,” he said. “He stopped after the play …. and asked me how I was doing. That was George.”

At 6-foot-1 and 185 pounds, Gipp was big for an athlete in those days. He was quick to attract the attention of Fighting Irish foootball coach Knute Rockne, even though he went to Notre Dame on a baseball scholarship.
Rockne talked him into playing football, however. The rest as they say, is history.
After putting together an All-American season in 1918, Gipp was offered a contract by the Cubs.
But he rejected the Chicago offer and returned to ND for the 1919 season.

After putting together another a great season, he contracted a case of strep throat after playing in a game against Illinois. He had been advised to sit out the game.
He died of complications of the sickness on Dec. 18, 1920. Stores in Calumet and Laurium closed for the afternoon in his honor.
A memorial was later built in Laurium to honor the most outstanding athlete ever produced in the Copper Country.

PERC test, at least in Aderson County, Tn, are only required IF the wrong type of soils ar at the 4 foot depth of a core sample. The health dept comes out with a manually operated core sampler to determine this at the tune of $500.

A mannually operated core sampler! This is a classic case of "bringing a knife to a gun fight". I've said it once or a million times, they dont call this part of the state Rocky Top for nothing. That manually operated core sampler made it about 8 inches before the guy told me I'd have to have a soil map done.

What's a soil map you ask?

A soil map is where you get to hire an engineer to come out and, with a powered core sampler, to take a core sample. Then he sends the results the Health Dept, who in return, sends you a report on what type of septic system must be installed, or if you need the additional PERC test.

Moral of this story:

If you plan on building a house in an area that requires a septic tank and drain field, hire the engineer first to do the soil map.

P.S.

I called an engineer Friday and left a message. Waiting for call back. Dis gonna be fun!

I just did perc tests in 4 places on the 15 acres we bought in sequachiee co. It was uneventful. And we now have permission to build pretty much wherever on the property.

Hope your test goes as well

Thanks!

I wish I'd been more familiar with the process. I read everything I could get my hands on and still messed it up. Lol

No biggie. Tomorrow is a new day.
