  • 1 Converse V. Everybody
    Converse v. Everybody: How Would This Litigation Change or Remain in Foreign Jurisdictions? I. Introduction Baseball, apple pie and July fourth barbecues. Since the turn of the century, these past times have been staples of American culture. The same can be said for the Converse All- Star “Chuck Taylor” basketball shoe. No sneaker embodies the rebellious American spirit like the Chuck Taylor All-Star.1 It was in 1908 when the Converse Rubber Corporation opened its doors, initially starting out as a galosh-producing shoe company. 2 But with the popularity of basketball on the rise, the Converse Corporation felt the need to develop a shoe that people could wear while playing basketball. 3 After extensive amounts of research and development, the All-Star became the first mass- produced basketball shoe in North America. 4 Due in part to its very thick rubber sole and an ankle-covering canvas, the All- Star was slow to embrace the feet of the American people. 5 However, this trend would not endure. Charles H. Taylor was a basketball player for the Akron Firestones. 6 He believed in the All-Star so much that in 1921 he joined the Converse sales force, and later became the player/coach 7 for the Converse All-Stars, the company’s industrial league basketball team. 8 Because Taylor was so successful in promoting the All-Star, as well as in making 1 important changes to the shoe design, his name “Chuck Taylor” was added to the ankle patch. 9 Soon thereafter, basketball teams and American children were wearing Converse “Chuck Taylor” All- Stars.10 After World War II, the classic black and white Chuck Taylor All-Star was introduced in 1949.

  • The Wyoming Way
    The Wyoming Way “The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy.” -Martin Luther King Jr. Winning Tradition The 1943 NCAA Champion Wyoming Cowboys. owboy Basketball tradition is a rich one, including an NCAA National Championship team, a former coach who is a member of the Basketball Hall of Fame, an All-American who is credited with one of the greatest innovations in C the history of the game and one of the most memorable players in NCAA history. In 1943, the University of Wyoming was led to the NCAA Championship by legendary coach Everett Shelton. Shelton’s 1943 Cowboy squad defeated Georgetown in the NCAA Championship game in Madison Square Garden. Two nights later, also in Madison Square Garden, the Cowboys earned the right to call themselves undisputed National Champions as they defeated that year’s NIT Champion, St. John’s University, in a game benefitting the Red Cross. In 1982, Coach Shelton’s memory was immortalized with the highest honor in basketball — induction into the Basketball Hall of Fame in Springfield, Mass. The ‘43 Cowboys featured All-American Kenny Sailors, who dazzled fans with an innovation that would change the way basketball would be played forever — the jump shot. Another Wyoming great that college basketball fans across the country still remember is Fennis Dembo. Dembo led the Pokes to the Sweet 16 of the 1987 NCAA Tournament and the next season graced the cover of Sports Illustrated magazine’s College Basketball Preview issue.
