# Parsi Gymkhana, Marine Drive

Parsi Gymkhana is a gymkhana (social and sporting club) located along Marine Drive in Mumbai. It was built for sports and social activities of Parsis. The gymkhana is one of the founder members of the Bombay Cricket Association The club has its own cricket ground, the Parsi Gymkhana Ground, where Parsis cricket team's matches are organised.
It was the first gymkhana to be built on communal lines in Bombay. Founded by Parsi cricketers, the Gymkhana fielded the Parsi XI during the Bombay Quadrangular and its successor Bombay Pentangular cricket tournaments. Parsi Gymkhana was founded in 1884 and was opened in 1888. In 2010, Parsi Gymkhana along with other community organisations announced a project to revive interest in cricket among the community.
During World War II, the government occupied the premises of Parsi Gymkhana and of Islam Gymkhana, leading the adjacent Hindu Gymkhana to offer membership to Muslims and Parsis as an "emergency measure". As the gymkhana land belongs to the collector, one of its lease conditions is that the grounds should be accessible to the general public and non-sporting activities such as weddings are allowed to be held at the ground for up to 30 days in the year. During one such event in 2003, a fire caused by a leaking LPG cylinder injured 27 people. In 2010, the local residents association moved the court to ban non-sporting activities at the ground, on the grounds that the general public was being denied access to it, something which the gymkhana denied. Parsi Gymkhana had received special permission to hold events on 60 days during the year. In 2011, the collector restricted non-sport events to 25 days a year only on weekdays. The gymkhana is also used for other events, such as the unveiling of the world's most affordable car, Tata Nano by Ratan Tata in 2009.

## History

It is one of the historic, prestigious Gymkhana of Mumbai along with Hindu Gymkhana. Parsi Gymkhana won police shield tournament in 1956 and 2021. Legendary cricketers such as Farookh Engineer and Polly Umrigar have played for Parsis in the past. In 2021, the club became the first to win back-to-back trophies in three different format, that is Talim Shield T20, Police Shield triumph (Test format) and Madhav Mantri Centenary One-Day 45 overs League.

# I Need (film)

I Need (or I Need a Man) is a 1967 American drama film concerned with a young girl who becomes a schizophrenic nymphomaniac after a childhood rape. It was the first movie from Beverly Sebastian and Ferd Sebastian, who self financed it for $7,000 and filmed it around Houston. The Sebastians distributed the film themselves and managed to recoup their money, launching their careers.

## Cast

* Ceci Weathers as Ceci
* Tom Hunter as Alex
* Jay Froman as Murry
* Sylvia Froman as Mother
Prior to starring in I Need, Tom Hunter guest starred on the 1960s, U.S television series Flipper and Hawk, then Gunsmoke, after. Working mostly in European-made films, Hunter starred in The Vampire Happening (1971), The Human Factor (1975), and The Cassandra Crossing (1976).

## Production

The credited writer "Ann Cawthorne" was a pseudonym for Beverly Sebastian.
Ferd Sebastian later said "Like in most of our films we did all the work. But in that one, I mean all [films we do], there was only the two of us and the cast which was about 4 people."

## Release

Per the IMDb.com, the film was released in the U.S on December 28, 1967, the Netherlands on August 28, 1969, and France in August 1970.

## Reception

Ferd Sebastian said ". . . it is the only picture we ever made in black and white and that it was too artsy. . . . It has a little sex and it has a little of this but it's very artsy. It looks like a Fellini film or something."
The Sebastians said the film was not making money in cinemas until a distributor bought the film, and created a poster using a still from the movie where a woman looks like she is having sex, then added the log line "I need a man." This was a successful technique although the Sebastians recognised it misrepresented the film.
A 1993 article said the film had made several hundred thousand dollars.
# Nathaniel Paul

Nathaniel Paul (died July 1839) was a Baptist minister and abolitionist who worked in Albany, New York, Wilberforce Colony in Canada, and traveled to the United Kingdom to raise support to aid African Americans.
Nathaniel Paul was born in Exeter, New Hampshire, to the ex-slave Caesar Nero Paul. A member of the prominent Paul family of New England, he was brother of Thomas Paul.
In 1827 he gave a speech celebrating the abolition of slavery in New York. His comments included the statement:
   "The lordly planter who has his thousands in bondage, may stretch himself upon his couch of ivory, and sneer at the exertions which are made by the humane and benevolent, or he may take his stand upon the floor of Congress, and mock the pitiful generosity of the east or west for daring to meddle with the subject, and attempting to expose its injustice: he may threaten to resist all efforts for a general or a partial emancipation even to a dissolution of the union. But still I declare that slavery will be extinct; a universal and not a partial emancipation must take place; nor is the period far distant."
Paul was involved in fundraising efforts for Wilberforce Colony in Canada, a settlement that included African Americans fleeing violent attacks in Cincinnati, Ohio (the colony was named after British abolitionist statesman William Wilberforce). He went to the United Kingdom (England, Ireland, and Scotland) to gain support and stayed there from 1832 until 1835. On January 14, 1832, the abolitionist newspaper, The Liberator, published a letter from Paul about his trip to England. While in London, Paul met and married Anne Adey, a white abolitionist, and their marriage was announced in The Liberator in 1833.
According to historian John Leverton, Paul returned in 1835 "with over $7,000 in collections, but his expenses totaled over $8,000, leaving the Colony with a substantial debt." Back across the Atlantic, Paul and Adey faced significantly more discrimination on account of their relationship that they had in England, despite support from William Lloyd Garrison.
Paul left the Colony shortly after his return from the United Kingdom and returned to Albany, where he died in 1839. After Paul's death, Adey faced continued discrimination, dying in 1853 from “complete nervous derangement” as a “martyr to American prejudice.”
