Um the Internet? Under Google search? That would be a good place to start. I would also try to interview Bill Caples and have him discuss some of the more memorable games he broadcasted from the old AAC. Man, the good old days. And Feds44 wants us joining that piss-ass league. Almost criminal in my opinion.
One book is called The Massillon Tigers Story and I believe a poster on this site has written one called Massillon Memories.
The internet can help alot. Google!

I just thought of another place. Scott Shook, who posts on here and I can't remember what his name is, is quite the Massillon historian. Scott, help this guy out.

Stop in at Louie Brio's Express Lube, and talk to Louie and Kenny Goodnight.

I have the AAC publication that was put out in the 70's (or 80's?) that describes all of the AAC teams that might be helpful. If you are a good boy, I might let you borrow it. Contact me. Be advised that there will be a stiff penalty if it gets lost and that is you being a cheerleader at all the FED games from now until the end of time.

If it's the same book I'm thinking about, it was put out before the 1971 season.

I think I have the same publication, but since it is old like me I've forgotten where it is located :wink:

There's a master's thesis at the Univ. of Akron on the AAC. I read it once when I was a grad-student there ('79-'80 school year). It's a good read as well as an excellent historical reference.

I stumbled crossed it when I attended around 1990. GREAT read for any fan supporting an AAC team. In additional to all of the facts and figures many games stories and stories behind the stories are cited. Again, very good work. :thumbsup:
