Some of Duluth’s most-prized treasures — old maps, newspaper clippings, historic photos, original lift bridge and Glensheen blueprints, and more — are stored deep on the campus of the University of Minnesota Duluth, in an annex building that’s one of the school’s oldest and that’s hidden behind the Kathryn A. Martin Library. And they’re deteriorating. Nothing has been lost yet or has even been really damaged.

It probably won’t take long. Before kickoff, before the first commercial, we’ll hear it, low to begin with, no doubt. Then we’ll recognize it, sing-songy and mocking — worse, offensive and racist. I continue to find it hard to pull for Kansas City’s professional football team, and I won’t be cheering for them to win Super Bowl LIX this weekend. Not because they’ve won so much recently or even because I suspect the refs give them all the calls (which I don’t, though plenty of others do).

Climbing the historic concrete steps and the sloping sidewalk that are all that's left of Duluth’s famous Incline Railway, Doug Stevens was eager to share some news this week — some actual good news, a rarity for an historic preservationist. A nearly decade-long quest to affix signs along the hillside walkway — to finally mark it and identify it and to explain and celebrate its historic significance — is close to being realized.

Some 3,000 Duluth fans filled the wooden bleachers and toed the freshly chalked sidelines at Athletic Park 100 years ago this week. On the field — then just beyond where Wade Stadium’s left-field wall stands today — the Duluth Kelleys and Akron Pros exchanged mostly line plunges and punts throughout much of Duluth’s first-ever professional gridiron game. Football was a far different sport a century ago.
