Stem is a town in Granville County, North Carolina, United States. The population was 960 at the 2020 census.
History
The town of Stem was established as a separate and distinct entity from Tally Ho township in 1888 by William Thomas Stem. The Stem family were co-proprietors of a general store in the Tally Ho township and owners of the land where a new spur of the Richmond and Danville Railroad terminated. Stem was built around this new rail station. The town was incorporated in 1911.
Stem is home to the historic Cozart-Coley House. Tally Ho township was the childhood home of James Webb, for which the space telescope is named.
Geography
According to the United States Census Bureau, the town has a total area of 1.5 square miles (3.9 km2), including 35,338 square feet (3,283.0 m2) of water area.
Stem is located in the Tally Ho voting precinct of Granville County.
Schools
The town of Stem is assigned to the following schools:
Elementary School (K-5) - Butner-Stem Elementary School
Middle School (6-8) - Butner-Stem Middle School
High School (9-12) - Granville Central High School
Stem High School vs. UNC - Chapel Hill, 1936
Long-time residents of Granville County recall the tale of how the Stem High School basketball team played and defeated the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill men's team in an impromptu basketball game. As the story goes, the Stem team won the Granville County championship in 1936 and were rewarded by their coach (known only as Coach Pegram) with a trip to see UNC play Davidson at the Tin Can. The Davidson team was unable to show because of a snowstorm, so Coach Pegram volunteered his team so that the crowd could still watch a game. The team from Stem (Brent Meadows, Wallace Bowling, Thomas Farabow, Clyde Cates, and James "Bunk" Guthrie) played well against their college opponents, and in the end won the game on a dramatic last-second shot.
The story is unverified in contemporaneous sources. If the game occurred, it is most likely to have taken place on February 12, 1936, when an influenza outbreak caused the cancellation of a UNC/Davidson basketball game. "Bunk" Guthrie would have been 22 years old at the time and 4 years past his graduation (though the Stem team was disqualified from the 1934 county championship for using ineligible players, so this does not necessarily rule out his participation in 1936). The Daily Tar Heel from February 13, 1936, mentions only that the team practiced on the date of the cancelled Davidson game to prepare for their upcoming contest against North Carolina State. The story (true or not) has become a piece of local legend and brought statewide attention to the town of Stem in 1999 when it was covered by Frank Newell for the Warren Record of Warren County, and again in 2000 when it was covered by Ned Barnett on the front page of the News & Observer.
