The game was uninteresting only in the fact that Williston gave an exhibition of dirty muckerism. The line up was as follows: |AGGIE|WILLISTON| |Dellea l.f.|r.g. Neile| |Hall McCobb r.f.|l.g. Dibble| |Morrill and Rice c.|c. Cox| |Chickering l.g.|r.f. Glenny| |Chase r.g.|l.f. Crawford| //As it appeared in Aggie Life:((https://archive.org/details/aggielife10mass/page/92/mode/2up?view=theater))//\\ {{::19000117_game_article.jpg?direct&300|}} **Editorials.**\\ From [[http://scua.library.umass.edu/youmass/doku.php?id=newspapers:aggie_life|Aggie Life]], January 24, 1900 The Life is sorry that it must criticise the conduct of the Williston basket ball team while here last Wednesday. It has been the endeavor of our college to engage in athletic contests with gentlemanly teams and when the Williston team accepted our hospitality we expected that they would at least conduct themselves in an orderly manner while here. We are well aware that the feeling of antagonism that has existed between Williston and our own college has often been carried too far, but the ungentlemanly actions of last Wednesday outstepped the bounds of decency and preclude the possibility of any future contests between us. {{tag>"1900 season" "Williston"}}
