(INS) — When Howard Sharpe and his Terre .Haute Gerstmeyer basketball squad left town this tourney' time without telling the Andrews most everyone figured the Black Cats would be sacked and rippling on the river before they got many miles away from the Wabash. The experts, and there are no exceiftions, said the sectionals, well all right then the leglonals, the semi-finals? Well then when will this audacious basketball magician and his troubadonrs be caged? ■ ■ ----.yr— — There’s no sure way of knowing and Coach Ray Crowe isn't making the mistake of relying on that early season lacing it gave Gerstmeyer, 98-52, to win the second afternoon game of the state finals at Butler Fieldhouse.. Saturday. Sharpe celebrated the end of a year’s probation by having a technical called on him last Saturday as his Cats were real gone in dumping Jasper, 55-52, and then Princeton, 89-58. And in the ffeturn of the bounciness to Sharpe may explain the revival of Gerstmeyer basketbail fortunes. When the Arley and Harley An-

drews got Gerstmeyer to the finals In 1953 and 1954 but couldn't cut the nets either time, most everyone put the Black Cats of 13th Street dowd as another meaningless superstition. And when the school drew a year’s penalty for a run-in between Howards exuberance and a whistle-tooter’s jurisdiction, the end appeared to be at sand. In retrospect, it now is evident that Sharpe had never quit Unlike eo many coaches who let adversity affect their public relations, Sharpe stuck with the polls and continued to write postcards and letters. And as his letters picked up steam, so did be and so did his team. By late January, he wrote: "If we get out of the sectionala. we ll be dangerous." For the record. .Gerstmeyer get out of its sectional, out of its regional and for the third time in four years is a member or the final foursome. Most everyone will tell you this team isn’t quite ripe and that* it doesn't have the gun tp do the | trick and it doesn’t have the height or stability or any number of things. But it does have a number qualities not least of which is Sharpe, a great little actor Who may never win an Oscar but who probably never would lose a game if he had an Oscar (Robertson, that la). J And another thing Sharpe has that roughly 150 coaches from southwestern Indiana wanted is a chance to end the greatest winning record ever put together by j
