Coilege Cagers H ave Colorful Hi s tory Forty-nine years ago next Febru- ary 22, the first loc:i J college basket- ball team e\'er to engage in inter- scholastic competition trotted out on the fl oor of the Normal gymnasium to meet a Lawrence college team. The inexperienced local cagers Jost that game,ll9-l4, and dropped a re- turn match, 17- 14, the only othe r g:imc of the season, but since then the loca l c:igers have ranked with the best in the state in the small college class . Following is an ac- count which appeared in the school public:ition after the first tussle: "About 350 people saw the Law- rence University b:tSketball team de- feat the Stevens Point Normal in the Norma l gymnasium February 22 (1 898). The game was an exciting one from the beginning. It was a good exhibition of basketball, with very little rough playing done on either side. Our boys p layed a st rong game considering the time they have been in practice and also consideri ng the fact that it was the fi rst game· ever played against an outside team." The Normal team lineup wat Holman , ce nter; Roseberry, Holt and Bremmer, right forwards; Wa- terbury, left forward; Springer and Culver, ri ght backs and Smith (Capt .), left back. Basketball was a much diffCrent game then from what it is now. There was no paid coach; a manager was selected who organized the team. A game was arranged by challeng ing an· opponent to a con- te~t. Guards, .as shown in tbe line- op abo-vc, were ca lled ""backs"." But despite the differences belween the ,g:i.me then :i nd now, there was just as much enthus iasm in the old days as there is now. Three games were played in Point's second season, 1898- I 899 and the Norma l team won a ll of them. The vi ctims were Grand Rapids High school, Gr.ind Rapids city team an4 Lawrence co llege. 'fhe Grand Rapids mentioned is noW \"1i sconsin Rapids .The Pointers were equally successful in succeedi ng years, taking on colleges, high school s, Y.M.C.A. teams and city al ike. Even in those days officials were unpopu lar, as evidenced by the fo ll owing a rticl e in the Pointer afte r a game in 1903 with the Wau- sau Y.M.C.A. (The referee disal- lowed a basket which would have tied the game, claiming it was made after the final whist le) . '"It is a{ways understood that the referee sho.uld be a person not co n- nected in any way with either of the contesting teams, and all teams we have met before have always had an outsider for a referee, but Wausau entirely ignored this, and allowed their manager to act as an official. We have no doubt but what bis in- tentions were good, but" some of his decisions were fa r- from being fair, to say the least." In 1912 Leonard G. Schneller was named the first coach, and in · the same year the Teachers college con- fcrence was organized. Stevens Point~upe r~o. r, River Falls and La Crosse were in the Northern divi- sion, and Milwaukee, Oshkosh, Wh itewater and Platteville made up. (S.. COLLEGE CAGERS, page 4)

ary 22, the first loc:iJ college basket­ball team e\'er to engage in inter­scholastic competition trotted out on the fl oor of the Normal gymnasium to meet a Lawrence college team. The inexperienced loca l cagers Jost that game,ll9-l4, and dropped a re ­turn match, 17- 14, the only other g:imc of the season, but since then the loca l c:igers have ranked with the best in the state in the small college class. Following is an ac­count which appea red in the school public:ition after the first tussle:

"About 350 people saw the Law­rence University b:tSketball team de­feat the Stevens Point Normal in the Norma l gymnasium February 22 (1 898). The game was an exciting one from the beginning. I t was a good exhibit ion of baske tball, with very little rough playing done on e ither side. Our boys p layed a st rong game considering the time they have been in practice and also consideri ng the fact that it was the fi rst game· ever played against an outside team."

The Normal team lineup wat Holman, center; Roseberry, Holt and Bremmer, right forwards; Wa­terbury, left forward; Springer and Culver, rig ht backs and Smith (Capt.), left back.

Basketball was a much diffCrent game then from what it is now. There was no paid coach; a manager was selected who organized the team. A game was arranged by challenging an· opponent to a con­te~t. Guards, .as shown in tbe line­op abo-vc, were ca lled ""backs"." But

despite the differences belween the ,g:i.me then :i nd now, there was just as much enthusiasm in the old days as there is now. Three games were played in Poin t's second season, 1898- I 899 and the Normal team won a ll of them. The victims were Grand Rapids High school, Gr.ind Rapids ci ty team an4 Lawrence college. 'fhe Grand Rap ids mentioned is noW \"1i sconsin Rapids .The Pointers were equally successful in succeeding years, taking on colleges, high schools, Y.M.C.A. teams and city al ike. Even in those days officials were unpopu lar, as evidenced by the fo llowing a rticle in the Pointer afte r a game in 1903 with the Wau­sau Y.M.C.A. (The referee disal­lowed a basket which would have tied the game, claiming it was made after the final whist le) .

'"It is a{ways understood that the referee sho.uld be a person not con­nected in any way with either of the contesting teams, and all teams we have met before have always had an outsider for a referee, but Wausau entirely ignored this, and allowed their manager to act as an official. We have no doubt but what bis in­tentions were good, but" some of his decisions were fa r- from being fair, to say the least."

In 1912 Leonard G. Schneller was named the first coach, and in ·the same year the Teachers college con­fcrence was organized. Stevens Point~uper~o.r, River Falls and La Crosse were in the Northern divi­sion, and Milwaukee, Oshkosh, Whitewater and Platteville made up.

The birthday of the Great Eman­cipator will be celebrated in our na­tion next week on February · 12. Abraham Lincoln as presidel\t of the United States was a man of simple convictions and of g reat faith in his fellow men.

His zeal for helping the common min and his faith i'n the American people are two of the things which have endeared him to posterity. Al­though his formal edU'Cat ion was acqui red through hard mental and phy­sical labor and although he never graduated £ rom college, he rose to the highest position attainable for a citizen of the United States.

. It is to men like these that we turn for inspiration down through the years and it is to men like these we must be grateful for the privileges we enjoy today. And so it is, that a whole nation celebrates and commemo­rates the birthday of a g reat man, Abraham Lincoln.

Here We Go Again •••• The seccind semester begins on a cheerful note, after first semester

exams and grade reports are left behind. A number of new students have joined the ranks and the Pointer staff wishes to extend to them a welcome hand. It is our wish that CSTC will be a place of learning as well as a place where new and old frieqds meet to Join in fun and frolic.

The next two months before Easter have all the ear marks of being two of the busiest. The Phi Sig Style show started the entertainment ball r..olling and the Student Council sponsored Valentine Ball keeps us anx­iously waiting for the first all-school hop. There will be a basketball game with Mission House next week, also, and a Music Masters evening assembly program and Band Clinic are planned for the latter part of the month.

Then, too, we have the frolic and antics during the Greek pledging period which starts on February 24. This is the time when would-be mem­bers of the Greek organizatioAs must show their nett le before they are accepted into the respective groups.

So get on the "band wagon" and join in the fun, but keep those books handy, for a combination of work and play is just what the doctor ordered. ·

The names don't stretch all the way from the proverbial 'soup to nuts', and we don't like to "'Bragg", but they .cover a good deal of ter­ritory, anyway.

The religious requirements are quite completely taken care of. We have a "Church", two "Bishops", two "Parsons", a "Sexton" and at least one "Christian". What with our two "Loves", plus the above, we have the makings of a wedding. If the couple are looking for a home, we can also offer a "House", with a "Hall", and a nice ·"Lane" for "Walkers· ·. It is good ''Fortune" to fi!1,d a place in these days of housing shor tages, so they would probably :·crab" it. If, however, ,they don't consider. it "Worth" the "Price", they can always enlist the aid of one of our three "Carf.enters", who might find it in their 'Power" to get materials from our "Grove". We '.a lso have "Oakes", a. "Burch" and a "Popple"-r. (That last one is really off the "Cobb".)

For those interested in liquid re­£reshments, (and who is.n"t?) we have a "Brewer" handy. In the·way

In the culinary department CSTC can claim a "Cook", with the asso· ciated words "Fry", and naturall "Bums". The "Stock" for him to work with is limited, however, as far as we can tell, to '"Rice" and an "Apple". If he has his "Witt"s about him, he may be, able to do al "W,ight", though.
