1991 Chicago Marathon, Background
The 1991 Chicago Marathon was run without a title sponsor. The 1990 race had been sponsored by G.

As a result, the prize money was reduced from $30,000 in 1990 to $7,500 in 1991, plus two free airline tickets. The lack of prize money affected the quality of athletes that participated in the event, with the Chicago Tribune saying that the 1991 race had the weakest field since 1981.


1991 Chicago Marathon, Background

The men's race was won by Brazilian Joseildo da Silva. Polish athlete Leszek Stokłosa was the race's pacemaker, and da Silva took the lead around 7 miles (11 km) into the race with fellow Brazilian José Santana.

After 22 miles (35 km), Dooney broke away from the chasing group, and he caught up to da Silva after 24 miles (39 km) of the race. Da Silva quickly dropped Dooney again. Da Silva won the race by six seconds from Dooney, and da Silva's winning time of 2:14:33 was the slowest winning time since 1981. After the race, da Silva said that the wind and a lack of competition in the race affected his ability to run quickly.


1991 Chicago Marathon, Race summary
The women's race was won by Swede Midde Hamrin in a time of 2:36:21. Harmin broke away from the pack after 5 miles (8.0 km) and stayed ahead throughout. Kirsi Rauta, who finished second, was over two minutes behind Hamrin. Hamrin's winning time was also the slowest since 1981.

1991 Chicago mayoral election
The Chicago mayoral election of 1991 resulted in the re-election of incumbent Democrat Richard M. Daley to his first full-term. Daley had previously been elected to serve the remainder of Harold Washington's unexpired term in a special election held following Washington's death in office.


1991 Chicago mayoral election
Daley won by a landslide 44 point margin. His most significant opponent in general election was Harold Washington Party nominee R. Eugene Pincham.

Daley handily won the Democratic nomination, fending off challenges from then-Cook County Commissioner Danny K. Davis and former mayor Jane M. Byrne.


1991 Chicago mayoral election, Nominations, Democratic primary
Daley announced on December 10, 1990 that he would seek reelection. The following day Daley held a fundraiser at the Hyatt Regency Chicago which raised more than a million dollars for his campaign. This, when added to his existing campaign funds, meant that by the third day of his candidacy he already had 2 million dollars in funding. Neither of his competitors could come anywhere remotely near him in fundraising.


1991 Chicago mayoral election, Nominations, Democratic primary
Daley, who won a special election in 1989, was the strong frontrunner for the Democratic nomination. A poll conducted by the Chicago Sun-Times in November 1990 showed that 58% of Chicagoan's had positive views of his performance as mayor. A Southtown Economist poll conducted after his campaign announcement showed him with a 61% approval rating, and also showed him to be polling at a 2 to 1 margin over his closest challenger, Danny Davis.


1991 Chicago mayoral election, Nominations, Democratic primary
Daley benefited from a variety of factors, including solid voting blocs supporting his candidacy, his strong managerial style as mayor, and lack of public interest in local politics amid the Gulf War, which assisted Daley's hopes to have a low-profile campaign.

Davis and Byrne hoped they would be able to debate Daley. Daley, however, declined to attend any debates.


1991 Chicago mayoral election, Nominations, Democratic primary
Davis had been selected as the "consensus" black candidate at a closed-door meeting held November 19, 1990 at the Hyde Park Hilton between 126 of Chicago's African-American leaders. They voted 66-60 to support Davis over Eugene Sawyer.


1991 Chicago mayoral election, Nominations, Democratic primary
While Davis had planned to campaign in all areas of the city, his funds were too limited to support a citywide campaign.


1991 Chicago mayoral election, Nominations, Democratic primary
Late in the primary, Tyrone Crider, the national executive director of Operation PUSH, characterized the Davis campaign as a "slow movement" because it had "failed to take the time necessary to meet and consult with the [black] religious and business community." Both Crider and PUSH founder Jesse Jackson  were upset with Davis having called a number of black ministers that had supported Daley, "Uncle Toms".


1991 Chicago mayoral election, Nominations, Democratic primary
Byrne's campaign was hampered by her inability to raise funds. Her campaign was considered to be rather weak, and received no support from any significant community or business leaders. Byrne declared that Chicago's, "deserved better leadership in City Hall". She attempted to provoke Daley into combatting with her, but he did not take her bait.


1991 Chicago mayoral election, Nominations, Democratic primary
In 1991, Byrne was regarded to be most comfortable when campaigning in the African-American community.

Black turnout was lower than it had been in the 1989 primary. Daley's share among black voters was higher than analysts had anticipated, with double-digit support.


1991 Chicago mayoral election, Nominations, Democratic primary
Due to the contest being overshadowed by the Gulf War, and due to voter apathy towards the election as a result of Daley's overwhelming lead in the polls, turnout was considered low, at under 48%. This was believed to have been among the lowest turnouts in fifty years for a mayoral primary in Chicago.


1991 Chicago mayoral election, Nominations, Democratic primary
Daley set a new record for the largest margin of victory in a Democratic primary, surpassing the previous record (set by his father in 1975).


1991 Chicago mayoral election, Nominations, Democratic primary
Daley's performance in the primary was perceived as placing him an unbeatable position to win the general election, with Chicago being an overwhelmingly Democratic city, and the Democratic nomination being widely considered as tantamount to election. Even though he was likely to face a third-party African-American opponent, this was not seen as enough to prevent his victory (especially considering that, as a candidate, Davis had not been able to pose much of a challenge to Daley in the primary).


1991 Chicago mayoral election, Nominations, Democratic primary, Results
Daley won a majority of the vote in 31 wards and Davis won a majority of the vote in the remaining 19 wards.

The Harold Washington Party held a primary. However its winner, James R. Hutchinson, withdrew, stepping aside for R. Eugene Pincham to assume the nomination. Hutchison was the vice-chairman of the Harold Washington Party.


1991 Chicago mayoral election, Nominations, Harold Washington Party primary
To initially win the nomination, Hutchinson ran for mayor on the Harold Washington Party ticket as a write-in candidate to ensure the Harold Washington Party's place on the ballot in the general election. His strategy was to win enough write-in votes to secure the party nomination, but not enough votes to hurt Davis` chances against Daley.


1991 Chicago mayoral election, Nominations, Harold Washington Party primary
Danny K. Davis had been in November 1991 by black leaders as a consensus African-American candidate to challenge Daley for mayor in the Democratic primary, and was backed by the Harold Washington Party during his Democratic primary campaign.


1991 Chicago mayoral election, Nominations, Harold Washington Party primary
Hutchinson stated before the Democratic primary that if Davis did not beat Daley, Hutchison would immediately withdraw from the Washington Party ticket to allow a stronger candidate to run in the general election with assurances from Davis that he would support such a candidate. After Davis lost to Daley, Hutchison kept his promise, stepped aside, and allowed Pincham to be the Harold Washington Party candidate for mayor.

Miami led 19-3 at halftime, but put the game out of reach with two touchdowns within five minutes in the third quarter. The Hurricanes also set Cotton Bowl and school records for most penalties (15) and most penalty yards (202) in a single game, many of which were for unsportsmanlike conduct. Partly as a result of controversy from this game, the NCAA instituted a new rule stipulating that excessive celebration would be a 15-yard penalty.

1991 Craigavon killings
The 1991 Craigavon killings took place on 14 November 1991 when the Mid-Ulster Brigade of the Ulster Volunteer Force (UVF) shot dead three civilians at the Carbet Road-Carn Road junction near Craigavon, County Armagh, Northern Ireland, on their way home from work at the Hyster forklift factory just outside Lurgan.


1991 Craigavon killings
The UVF set up an illegal checkpoint which looked like a regular British Army checkpoint. The UVF members manning the checkpoint used a red torch to signal to people to pull over. Fergus Magee (28) was getting a lift home with Desmond Rogers (54) when they were pulled over by the illegal checkpoint. After stopping a masked man wearing army fatigues and carrying an AK-47 assault rife walked along the row of parked cars until he reached Desmond Rogers' car and fired a number bursts into the vehicle killing Rogers instantly and fatally wounding Magee.


1991 Craigavon killings
John Lavery (27) who was in the car behind Rogers and Magee tried to reverse out of the way but the UVF gunman ran over to him and fired several shots into his car and he died a few hours later in hospital. The two men in the front car (Desmond Rogers and Fergus Magee) were both Catholic civilians, John Lavery in the back car was a Protestant civilian. The UVF later issued an apology for killing John Lavery because he was a Protestant.


1991 Craigavon killings
As Billy Wright was the commander of the UVF at this period it's believed he was involved in at least authorizing the attack and perhaps even planning it or being directly involved.


1991 Craigavon killings
The day before the attack on 13 November the Provisional IRA Belfast Brigade killed four Protestants in separate incidents around Belfast, first they killed a UFF member William Kingsberry and his stepson Samuel Mehaffey who was a member of the Red Hand Commando at a house in Lecale street, then brothers Stephen and Kenneth Lynn were shot and killed while they were renovating a house, the previous owner who was a Loyalist paramilitary was the intended target. It's possible the Craigavon killings were in retaliation for the four IRA killings the previous day.


1991 Craigavon killings
A UVF member Vicky Ahitty from Portadown was sentenced to life in October 1992 for the killings along with the murders of Kevin and John McKearney at their butcher's shop in Moy, County Tyrone, on 3 January 1992. Kevin McKearney was the brother of three former Provisional IRA volunteers – hunger striker Tommy McKearney, Pádraig McKearney, a high ranking volunteer killed at the Loughgall Ambush by the SAS in 1987, and another brother Sean died when a bomb he was transporting blew up prematurely in 1974. Kevin was the only brother not in the IRA.


1991 Craigavon killings
Two other serious attacks like this were carried out earlier in the year by Billy Wrights  UVF Mid-Ulster Brigade. On 3 March 1991 three Provisional IRA members and a Catholic civilian were shot dead, then later on in the same month three Catholic civilians were killed, including two young teenage girls in the 1991 Drumbeg killings.


1991 Craigavon killings
The attack was similar to the Miami Showband killings in July 1975 when the UVF also used a bogus Ulster Defence Regiment (UDR) checkpoint to stop their victims in that attack as well. The same sort of tactic was used again by the UVF in August 1975 when they stopped two Catholic civilians at an illegal checkpoint and shot them both dead near Newtownhamilton.


1991 Craigavon killings, Aftermath
This was the UVF's third attack of the year that ended in mass murder along with the Cappagh and Drumbeg killings. It was around this time the Irish Republicans started taking the Loyalist threat more seriously. Ten days after the Craigavon attack the Provisional IRA killed a UFF and UVF member in Crumlin Road jail with an explosive device placed in behind a radiator in the Loyalist break room.


1991 Craigavon killings, Aftermath
On 21 December the Irish People's Liberation Organization killed two Protestant civilians in a Loyalist owned bar, on the same the Irish National Liberation Army killed a Protestant civilian, his father who was the intended target was a RUC officer, later on that night the UFF killed a Catholic civilian in Fortuna street Belfast. The UVF's worst attack of this period was the 1994 Loughinisland massacre when they shot dead six civilians who were watching Ireland play in the World Cup, five other people were seriously wounded.


1991 Craigavon killings, Aftermath
in 1998, during a period of sectarian tension, Nationalists workers from "Workers at Wilson Double Deck Trailers Ltd" in Craigavon were met with graffiti from loyalists exclaiming "Fenians Remember Hyster" painted across the walls of the factory, a reference to the killings in Craigavon in 1991.


1991 Crimean sovereignty referendum
A referendum on sovereignty was held in the Crimean Oblast of the Ukrainian SSR on 20 January 1991 two months before the 1991 All-Union referendum. Voters were asked whether they wanted to re-establish the Crimean Autonomous Soviet Socialist Republic, which had been abolished in 1945. The proposal was approved by 94% of voters.


1991 Crimean sovereignty referendum, Background
The Crimean ASSR was originally created in 1921, as part of the Russian SFSR in the Soviet Union. Crimea was invaded by Nazi Germany during World War II, and when the region was reclaimed by the USSR in 1944, the Crimean Tatars, Armenians, Bulgarians and Greeks were deported to Central Asia under the pretext of alleged collaboration with the German occupiers. The ASSR was dissolved in 1945 and Crimea became an oblast of the Russian SSR. On 5 February 1954 it was transferred to the Ukrainian SSR. During the collapse of the Soviet Union at the start of the 1990s, the Ukrainian SSR declared itself sovereign on 16 July 1990.


1991 Crimean sovereignty referendum, Background
The key difference between being an Oblast and an Autonomous Republic that suggested the referendum lies in republics being parties of New Union Treaty and according to the contemporary laws on quitting from the USSR could decide on their own whether to remain within the leaving Soviet Republic or remain in the USSR.


1991 Crimean sovereignty referendum, Aftermath
Following the referendum, the Supreme Soviet of the Ukrainian SSR passed the law "On Restoration of the Crimean Autonomous Soviet Socialistic Republic" on 12 February 1991, restoring Crimea's autonomous status. In September 1991 the Crimean parliament declared the territory to be a sovereign constituent part of Ukraine.

1991 Croatian census
The 1991 population census in Croatia was the last census of the population of Croatia taken before the Croatian War of Independence. It was conducted by the Croatian Bureau of Statistics during the final week of March 1991. For the 1991 census there were 106 municipalities of which five were part of Zagreb.


1991 Croatian independence referendum
Croatia held an independence referendum on 19 May 1991, following the Croatian parliamentary elections of 1990 and the rise of ethnic tensions that led to the breakup of Yugoslavia. With 83 percent turnout, voters approved the referendum, with 93 percent in favor of independence. Subsequently, Croatia declared independence and the dissolution of its association with Yugoslavia on 25 June 1991, but it introduced a three-month moratorium on the decision when urged to do so by the European Community and the Conference on Security and Cooperation in Europe through the Brioni Agreement. The war in Croatia escalated during the moratorium, and on 8 October 1991, the Croatian Parliament severed all remaining ties with Yugoslavia. In 1992, the countries of the European Economic Community granted Croatia diplomatic recognition and Croatia was admitted to the United Nations.


1991 Croatian independence referendum, Background
After World War II, Croatia became a one-party socialist federal unit of the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia. Croatia was ruled by the League of Communists and enjoyed a degree of autonomy within the Yugoslav federation. In 1967, a group of Croatian authors and linguists published the Declaration on the Status and Name of the Croatian Literary Language, demanding greater autonomy for the Croatian language. The declaration contributed to a national movement seeking greater civil rights and decentralization of the Yugoslav economy, culminating in the Croatian Spring of 1971, which was suppressed by Yugoslav leadership. The 1974 Yugoslav Constitution gave increased autonomy to federal units, essentially fulfilling a goal of the Croatian Spring and providing a legal basis for independence of the federative constituents.


1991 Croatian independence referendum, Background
In the 1980s, the political situation in Yugoslavia deteriorated, with national tension fanned by the 1986 Serbian SANU Memorandum and the 1989 coups in Vojvodina, Kosovo and Montenegro. In January 1990, the Communist Party fragmented along national lines, with the Croatian faction demanding a looser federation. In the same year, the first multi-party elections were held in Croatia, with Franjo Tuđman's win resulting in further nationalist tensions. The Croatian Serb politicians boycotted the Sabor, and local Serbs seized control of Serb-inhabited territory, setting up road blocks and voting for those areas to become autonomous. The Serb "autonomous oblasts" would soon unite to become the internationally unrecognized Republic of Serbian Krajina (RSK), intent on achieving independence from Croatia.


1991 Croatian independence referendum, Referendum and declaration of independence
On 25 April 1991, the Croatian Parliament decided to hold an independence referendum on 19 May. The decision was published in the official gazette of the Republic of Croatia and made official on 2 May 1991. The referendum offered two options. In the first, Croatia would become a sovereign and independent state, guaranteeing cultural autonomy and civil rights to Serbs and other minorities in Croatia, free to form an association of sovereign states with other former Yugoslav republics. In the second, Croatia would remain in Yugoslavia as a unified federal state.


1991 Croatian independence referendum, Referendum and declaration of independence
Serb local authorities called for a boycott of the vote. The referendum was held at 7,691 polling stations, where voters were given two ballots—blue and red, with a single referendum option each, allowing use of either or both of ballots. The referendum question proposing independence of Croatia, presented on the blue ballot, passed with 93.24% in favor, 4.15% against, and 1.18% of invalid or blank votes. The second referendum question, proposing that Croatia should remain in Yugoslavia, was declined with 5.38% votes in favor, 92.18% against and 2.07% of invalid votes. The turnout was 83.56%.


1991 Croatian independence referendum, Referendum and declaration of independence
Croatia subsequently declared independence and dissolved (Croatian: razdruženje) its association with Yugoslavia on 25 June 1991. The European Economic Community and the Conference on Security and Cooperation in Europe urged Croatian authorities to place a three-month moratorium on the decision. Croatia agreed to freeze its independence declaration for three months, initially easing tensions. Nonetheless, the Croatian War of Independence escalated further. On 7 October, the eve of expiration of the moratorium, the Yugoslav Air Force attacked Banski dvori, the main government building in Zagreb.


1991 Croatian independence referendum, Referendum and declaration of independence
On 8 October 1991, the moratorium expired, and the Croatian Parliament severed all remaining ties with Yugoslavia. That particular session of the parliament was held in the INA building in Šubićeva Street in Zagreb due to security concerns provoked by recent Yugoslav air raid; Specifically, it was feared that the Yugoslav Air Force might attack the parliament building. 8 October was celebrated as Croatia's Independence Day for a while. Nowadays, October 8 is the Memorial Day of the Croatian Parliament and no longer a public holiday.


1991 Croatian independence referendum, Recognition
The Badinter Arbitration Committee was set up by the Council of Ministers of the European Economic Community (EEC) on 27 August 1991 to provide legal advice and criteria for diplomatic recognition to former Yugoslav republics. In late 1991, the Commission stated, among other things, that Yugoslavia was in the process of dissolution, and that the internal boundaries of Yugoslav republics could not be altered unless freely agreed upon. Factors in the preservation of Croatia's pre-war borders, defined by demarcation commissions in 1947, were the Yugoslav federal constitutional amendments of 1971 and 1974, granting that sovereign rights were exercised by the federal units, and that the federation had only the authority specifically transferred to it by the constitution.


1991 Croatian independence referendum, Recognition
Germany advocated quick recognition of Croatia, stating that it wanted to stop ongoing violence in Serb-inhabited areas. It was opposed by France, the United Kingdom, and the Netherlands, but the countries agreed to pursue a common approach and avoid unilateral actions. On 10 October, two days after the Croatian Parliament confirmed the declaration of independence, the EEC decided to postpone any decision to recognize Croatia for two months, deciding to recognize Croatian independence in two months if the war had not ended by then.


1991 Croatian independence referendum, Recognition
As the deadline expired, Germany presented its decision to recognize Croatia as its policy and duty—a position supported by Italy and Denmark. France and the UK attempted to prevent the recognition by drafting a United Nations resolution requesting no unilateral actions which could worsen the situation, but backed down during the Security Council debate on 14 December, when Germany appeared determined to defy the UN resolution. On 17 December, the EEC formally agreed to grant Croatia diplomatic recognition on 15 January 1992, relying on opinion of the Badinter Arbitration Committee.


1991 Croatian independence referendum, Recognition
The Committee ruled that Croatia's independence should not be recognized immediately, because the new Croatian Constitution did not provide protection of minorities required by the EEC. In response, the President Franjo Tuđman gave written assurances to Robert Badinter that the deficit would be remedied. The RSK formally declared its separation from Croatia on 19 December, but its statehood and independence were not recognized internationally. On 26 December, Yugoslav authorities announced plans for a smaller state, which could include the territory captured from Croatia, but the plan was rejected by the UN General Assembly.


1991 Croatian independence referendum, Recognition
Croatia was first recognized as an independent state on 26 June 1991 by Slovenia, which declared its own independence on the same day as Croatia. Lithuania followed on 30 July, and Ukraine, Latvia, Iceland, and Germany in December 1991. The EEC countries granted Croatia recognition on 15 January 1992, and the United Nations admitted them in May 1992.


1991 Croatian independence referendum, Aftermath
Although it is not a public holiday, 15 January is marked as the day Croatia won international recognition by Croatian media and politicians. On the day's 10th anniversary in 2002, the Croatian National Bank minted a 25 kuna commemorative coin. In the period following the declaration of independence, the war escalated, with the sieges of Vukovar and Dubrovnik, and fighting elsewhere, until a ceasefire of 3 January 1992 led to stabilization and a significant reduction of violence. The war effectively ended in August 1995 with a decisive victory for Croatia as a result of Operation Storm. Present day borders of Croatia were established when the remaining Serb-held areas of Eastern Slavonia were restored to Croatia pursuant to the Erdut Agreement of November 1995, with the process concluded in January 1998.

Hansa Rostock had won both the NOFV-Oberliga and the NOFV-Pokal, so the losing cup finalists, Stahl Eisenhüttenstadt, took the fourth place in the competition.

1991 Dallas Cowboys season
The 1991 Dallas Cowboys season was the franchise's 32nd season in the National Football League and was the third year of the franchise under the ownership of Jerry Jones and head coach Jimmy Johnson. This also marked Norv Turner's first year as offensive coordinator under head coach Jimmy Johnson. The Cowboys improved on their 7-9 record from 1990, finishing 11-5, and made the playoffs for the first time since 1985.

The young offensive nucleus of Troy Aikman, Michael Irvin and Emmitt Smith continued to develop, as did the offensive line, while the defense also improved. Though the Cowboys would lose in the playoffs to the Detroit Lions in the divisional round, the season was considered a resounding success, and a glimpse of things to come. Notable additions to the team this year include defensive tackle Russell Maryland, wide receiver Alvin Harper, offensive tackle Erik Williams, linebacker Darrick Brownlow, cornerback Larry Brown and linebacker Dixon Edwards.


1991 Dallas Cowboys season, Regular season
The season began with a strong 26-14 victory over Cleveland and a close Monday night loss to Washington, 33-31. However, in Week Three the Cowboys were defeated at home by Philadelphia, 24–0. The Eagles sacked Troy Aikman eleven times, limited the Cowboys to just 90 yards of offense, and served notice that the Cowboys were still behind the "contenders" in the NFC East.

A narrow victory the next week over the Cardinals did little to change that contention. However, in Week 5, the Cowboys scored on a 23-yard touchdown to Michael Irvin and upset the defending Super Bowl champion Giants 21-16 (snapping a 6-game losing streak to the Giants).

The momentum from the Giants win carried the Cowboys to three wins in the next four games, besting the slumping Packers and winless  Bengals. After a turnover-plagued humiliation at Detroit the Cowboys manhandled the Cardinals again and now stood at 6-3.

But then the Cowboys lost to the Oilers in overtime (the Cowboys were driving close to field goal range in the overtime period when Emmitt Smith committed a rare fumble). The next week, they lost at the Giants in a game Jimmy Johnson said was "officiated as poorly" as any he had ever coached in.

At 6–5, the playoff chances seemed in serious jeopardy, especially with their upcoming opponent being a road game against the undefeated (and eventual Super bowl champion) Washington Redskins. However, Jimmy Johnson presented a gambling game plan for the Redskins game, including a first-half onside kick, several decisions to "go for it" on 4th down at unusual times, and opting to throw for the end zone on the final play of the first half even though the team was within field goal range at the Redskins 34. Alvin Harper made the catch for a TD.
