By UNITED PRESS Indiana Central Greyhounds, in the throes of a 20-game winning spree that started last year and threatens to run longer than ‘“Tobacco Road,” have left a wake of astronomical scores resembling a social security number minus. the hyphens. Coach Harry Good has reared a team of veteran basketballers who started clicking in mid-season last year to finish the card with 10 straight wins. This season, only two men were lost to Good, and the Greyhounds have annexed another 10 victories with the precision of a pennant race. i budget-department adding machine.

The Sailors would offer the acid test for the Greyhounds and possibly erase the question mark to their acclaim — “Can they lick tough competition?” Harry Good thinks his lads could give the Sailors a scrap.
