Last Tuesday afternoon in front of a large, enthusiastic crowd, a group of campers defending the glory of Indiana University lost to a group of counselors defending Marquette University by a score of 30-22.

The campers used the same line-up as they did in their first staff game. Starters were Frank Sterneck and Stu Cohn at guard, Mike Levitt and Dan Aron at forward, and Greg Echt at center. Jeff Mossler was the campers substitute.

The Milwaukee J.C.’s went with Tony Heuser at center, Doug McIver and Bart (one of the kitchen boys) at forward, and Rick Mandel and Ed Fried in the backcourt.

Coaches of the Milwaukee team were Little Jimmy Kerns and Big Barry Schulman.

Bob Heilbronner was supposed to start for the J.C.’s until he sprained his ankle two days before the game.

Spirits rose for the game as a group of Partial P.A.’s (Program Aides) made and flew a banner bearing I.U. over the camp. The Partials spent all afternoon Sunday working on the flag and late into Sunday night. Bruce Berman and Dan Aron snuck out and rose the flag.

It was very hot Tuesday afternoon as game-time drew nearer. This reporter sat and watched the two teams practice. The campers hardly missed any shots. With me watching warm-ups was Gary Oglander, one of the key men in the Athletic and Basketball programs at Timberlane. I asked him who he favored and why. He told me he picked the campers because of the superior Timberlane Basketball program the campers had experienced.

As the game began, a group from Cheyenne cabin dressed as Marquette Warriors. The game opened with Mike Levitt hitting a jumper, throwing the campers into a 1-0 lead. The teams exchanged score until Frank Sterneck scored two straight baskets, giving the campers a 4-2 lead. Ed Fried scored two in a row, tying it up at 4 a piece

The two men on the court were hot for the first half, and at the break in the action, the campers for I.U. led only barely, the score being 15-13.

But the second half told the story. Beginning quite like first half, both the counselors and the campers hit buckets and the score became 20-20. Then, the campers tired. Stu Cohen hit one, but after that the counselors scored 10 out of the last 11 points to make the fianl score 30-22. it was as if after the game broke open, the campers couldn't even buy a basket.

Stu Cohen scored 7 to lead the campers, while Ed Fried and Doug "Meatcleaver" McIver scored 9 and 8 respectively to lead the counselors

The game was the result of a growing Indiana-Marquette rivalry. Hardly a meal would go by without hearing a “Go- I.U.- FIGHT!” or a counter by the Marquette fans such as “Indiana stinks, Indiana stinks.”

The counselors originally challenged the campers, putting up malts for the winning team. The campers quickly accepted. But even higher stakes were placed on the game. If the campers lost, Greg Echt would suffer the ultimate defeat- singing the Marquette fight song over the P.A.

Scott Geffen served to make the game more interesting. Scott, a student at I.U., said he would “SACRIFICE HIS BODY TO HIS ALMA MATER.” if the campers lost, he also promised to be syrupped and feathered with an I.U. t-shirt on. Also, he promised to do something only done on his grandmother’s 79th birthday, shave off his moustache.

The game was postponed from Monday to Tuesday because of the late arrival of the Porcupine Mountain Backpacking trip. Jeff Mossler, Frank Sterneck, and Mike Levitt were team members on the trip.
