WISCONSIN'S TROUBLE.
The Players Didn't Agree with the
Coach,
Yesterday's Chicago Record has the
followng to say conet ng foot11
at Wisconsin this year:
"There is a lot of inside history in
regard to the football season of 1895
at Wisconsin which is of more than
ordinary interest. Lack of harmony
between the team and its coach was
undoubtedly one of the reasons of
Wisconsin's poor showing the last year
on the football field. Now the season
is over, many members of the team
are willing to talk, and from them it
is learned that all through the season
there had been differences with
Coach Stickney, which have been
fatal to team improvement. The
trouble started early in the fall. In
the first place, it is said that Mr.
Stickney's first mistake-or rather the
first mistake of the field management
of the team-was the getting of the
team together too early. The mem-
hers were summoned here about the
middle of August, at which time prac-
tice was begun. This led the new stu-
dents at the university to believe that
the team had been practically selected
and prevented them from coming out
when the fall term opened. In :this
way many people who were induced
to come on the field were preventedt
from playing. Little Peale, a promis-
ing Canadian player, was one of the
men who failed to coie out and there
was considerable good football talent
which was learned of before the sea-
son that did not come out even for
practice.
"Thtn there was much personal an-
tagonism to Stickney. He was arbi-
trary. it is alleged that he lacked
executive ability. One of the best
players on the teai declares that tur-
lug the seaon Stickey nvr taught
the team a single new play. He
failed to give Richards, the captain
of the team, any instructions in punt-
ilg. Up to the time of the Illinois-
Wisconsin game Richards never alow-
ed aity ability- to -punt whatever.
After that game, however, Kull took
Richards in hand and from that time
out fhere was a marked improvement
in his punting, although all through
the season Wisconsin remained weak
in that branch of the game and sev-
eral times failed to stop attacks which
were made for a touchdown in the
vicinity of its goal, because of the
utter inability of Richards to kick the
ball out of danger when it was neces-
sary.
"Things came to a crisis shortly
after the Chicago game, and then, in
the presence of the entire team. it is
said, Richard, who up to this time
had had a blind faith in Stickney, ap-
parently began to recognize his posi-
tion and said to the eleven .that lie
felt that he did not have their con-
fidence because of his adherence to
Stickney; that he hoped for better
things In the future, and that he
would no longer pin his faith in Stick-
ney.
"After this admission by Richards,
T. U. Lyman, to whose captainship
(lie success of the team i 1514 was
undoubtedly due, began tongre nore
actively as a coach and there was a
marked improvement in the team
work of the eleven. Lyman is person-
ally opposed to Stickney as a coach.
"As far as the financial manage-
nent of the team is concerned this
year, is was (le best iii thehistory of
the university. Martin J. Gillen, as
manager of the team, proved a good
financier, and despite the fact than the
expenses were large, the football asso-
ciation ends the season with money in
the treasury. Stickney was paid $2,-
900 as coach, but most of this amount
came from the alumni and business
men of Madison.
''The prospects for a good team
next year are excellent. tiebards,
with a year's experience as captain,
will probably again be leader of the
team, and the chances are that he
will prove a valuable man next year,
as lie has learned good lessons by ex-
perience. Comstock will probably be
center, as Kull graduated from the
institution this year. The guards are
likely to be Riordan ani Ktirugmeer,
the latter being a new player who
has showed up remarkably well in
pracice work. Alexander and Shel-
don will probably remain on tie sends,
while the team will have to look for
new material for tackle. For half-
backs Cochems and Nelson now seem
to have the inside crack. Cochems is
a player who dii splendid work last
year, but wvas prevented from playing
the last season from the fact that he
was on the joint debate. Nelson was
on the team in 1891 and was a crack
shalf-back, but was obliged to stay
out of the institution this year. Ie,
however, comes back next, year to
complete his work. Eitiier Peale or
Gregg will probably play at quarter-
back, while Iichards will continue to
hold his present position of full-ack."
