Central Normal Faces Its Last Game Without Tremors, Even Though It Does Stand in the Way Of a Perfect Season.

T'S a sort of embryonic phenomenon whenever a Hoosier college team goes through an undefeated season. But when a college team lopes through 15 games, scores an average of 42.4 points each contest, does all this without a gymnasium of its own, that is, tritely but true, some stuff, However, you won't find Central Normal students

standing in the middle of the road and waving a red flag about their achievements. Winning a string of games is old stuff to the Warriors. They've been doing 1t for years, but just the same. they would rather win that last remaining game irom karitham tomorrow night at Richmond tnan pass ‘their exams. Coach S. H. Leitzman, a short stocky feliow with a twinkle in his eye and brains in his head, has trained his boys on drive and lieadsup ball. Everything that happens on his floor is a set play. They have so many plays that its impossible for them to be put in a spot where one of their formations won't fit. 1 watched them practice yesterday afternoon at the Danville High School Gym and they rush around like so many parts of a Swiss watch. After winning 17 games last year the prospects for the 1936-37 season loomed up pretty fair. But just at the end of football season last fall, while Coach Leitzman was shooting deer in Arkansas on the only vacation he has a chance to take, the Central Normal Gym burned. Everything was lost, suits. files of plays and records, all went up in smoke. Nothing remains but a dozen or 80 steel girders and several stacks of bricks. ” n " Ea " un UT that didn't stop the plucky Normalites. They've gone to work and built themselves another winning basketball team no matter what stood in their way. The athletic office has been shuttled over into the oldest building on the campus. The equipment room is. behind a row of book cases and Coach Leitzman says it'll be a wonder if they get through the season with half of their equipment still intact, All season they have had to practice on the high school floor at Danville. Now practicing on a high school floor and then playing on a college floor is no snap. It would be as difficult as crossing the ocean in a rowboat. But the Central Normal boys seem to have taken their adversities as a challenge. So far this season, and there is just the one game left to play. they have scored 636 points to their opponents’ 435. They have played teams in their class and above it a couple of times, Here's their list: St. Joseph, 26, Normal, 33: Eastern Illinois, 25, Nermal, 32; Cincinrati, 28. Normal, 49: Huntington, 35. Normal, 42; Eastern Illinois, 27. Normal, 49; Oakland City, 34,

Normal, 43; Hanover, 35. Normal, 45; Valparaiso, 29,

" n zn u = n ES sir, they're regular guys, these Danville boys. And they love their basketball. They are out to practice before the coach gets there and he likes the game, too. His teams have won 128 and lost 20 in the last six years. And so they go, playing and winning, and taking it with a grain of salt. Coach Leitzman is dreaming, though. of better days for Central Normal. He wants to build a fieldhouse to replace the old gymnasium. He wants a fieldhouse because he could have his (rack men work indoors then. “I'm sure we could have a championship track team with these husky farm lads we get here,” he =aid yesterday, You'd think a guy like that would get fed up on victory after so long, wouldn't vou. But I'll pick Central Normal to win tomorrow night.
