Hockey as part of the athletic activities of the College had never gained any headway until this year.  No doubt, this was due to lack of equipment, and playing facilities, and no enthusiasm among the student body.  However, in spite of all obstacles, a few students attempted to get this sport started in the days when Professor Thorpe Langley and W.W. Gude, Duluth Central hockey coach were students; but all effort was in vain.  No ice rink could be made and the school lacked funds and enthusiasm.  Thereupon, all interest in hockey was lost - until this year. This change was due to the efforts and hard work of Professor Langley and Clough Gates, our regent.  These men obtained the use of the Superior Curling Club ice for practice.  Immediately with the news that a place for practice had been obtained, a call for candidates was sent out.  This call was responded by about fifteen candidates. These candidates were organized into a team, and a $25.00 appropriation was obtained through Coach (Irl) Tubbs.  Andrew Broccone was made coach and Hyman Berman, manager.  Then, about four or five games were booked, and teh playing season started in the latter part of January.  Two of these games were played with the Duluth Cathedral, and the other two with Duluth Central.  The first game with the Cathedral sextet was won, and the rest lost, but the fellows at all times played a good game, considering the fact that the team was the school's first one, and the backing and enthusiasm in the school was very small indeed.
