JIM: Basketball tournaments bring memory of great teams past Remember this great Lindsey Wilson Team?: Misses Zora Edna Bell and Gladys Fraser, forwards; Misses Vivian Long and Iva Lewis, guards; Miss Ethel Garnett, center; and Misses Ruth Hill and Bessie Stockton. Or this powerhouse Columbia High School Redhounds outfit: Allen Mercer, Earl Blair, Morris Epperson, Marvin Sinclair, and Frank Callison. They made Adair County basketball history 90 years ago. It's all right here, in Jim's account. He ought to have been a sports writer By JIM With basketball tournaments in full swing, a look back at three games of yore as reported in the News ninety years ago today -- March 7, 1922 -- seems in order. In the spring of 1922, Lindsey Wilson was still a training (that is, college prep) and normal (teacher education) school; junior college status was still a year and half away. Also in this era, rules and regulations for sports were considerably more relaxed than today, as evidenced by the first article, headlined "An Unselfish Spirit."
