letter physical trim, the Normal bas-
ketbaIl five last evening defeated the
" M e. A. in one of the best basket
IAN exhibitions ever seen on a local
floor. Not until the last second OF play
we're the winners decided and then by
margin of but one point, the flnaI
score being 1925. The slightest break
In the last second Of play might nave
easily changed the score.
The game was opened with the y NJ
C. A. drawing first blood and with the
Y. NJ. C. A. leading by a 17-11 score at
the end of the first half. Starting on
the second half by scoring two con-
secutive field goals, giving them ~
noint lead. it looked like = scre victory
Tor the Y. NJ. C. A. Tightening up their
defensive and making uln3h stronger
offensive, the Normal machine was
soon in the lead, and continued to lead
until the game was over.
Both teams displayed good basket
Tan for an opening game. but showed
that they were just a little rusty In
their team organization. Both teams
missed many skots, especially the Nor
NAL, that they ordinarily would have
made.
The Normal team all worked well TO-
cether and showed more preparation.
Considering the fact that the Y. NJ. c.
A. team had never been together be-
fore, every member of the team made
a most remarkable showing. Jehries
was easily the star of the game, his SEN
sational shooting featuring. The
