98THE NORMAL ADVANCEweeks, and his work at Butler has marked hima man to be feared by his opponents. Wilsonhas the advantage of being heavy, and this,coupled with his speed, gives him an advantage that counts in a close game. CaptainClark played a stellar game throughout. Hishead work and ability to cover the floor, timeafter time prevented the Butler five fromraising their score. This is also Clarks firstCAPTAIN HOME RUN CLARK.Boys, weve got to win.year at basketball, and w7ith added experiencehe will make a better guard than baseballplayer, which is saying some things. Duringthe last part of the game Caffee and Vermillion replaced Wilson and Unverferth. Sincethe first of school, Caffee has been playing thefastest game at guard that has been seen onour floor for some time. He is handicapped■ by a lack of weight. With the addition of afew pounds he could hold dow7n any forwardwe have yet met. Vermillion, the varsity manof last year, played in better form than ever.The summary:State Normal (29).

Rose Polytechnic Institute is claiming its team will secure thesecondary championship of the state. Normalby comparative scores would have little troublein defeating Rose Poly. Poly bested Butler inforty minutes of hard work, and was in dangerof losing at one time. Now7 the Normal teamromped away from Butler with a margin ofeighteen points. It must be remembered thatRose played upon her own floor, wdiile Normalplayed at Indianapolis.Preceding this was the less important gamewith DePauw at Greencastle, January 10. Accompanied by a special car of rooters the Normal men had little trouble in taking a victoryfrom the Preachers. DePauw had selected anairdome with a ground floor and low roof as aplace to play and our men were greatly handicapped by these unusual conditions which accounts for the rather, close score. The teamwork of our five was not up to the standard andindividual w7ork w7as poor.The summary:Normal (35).
