NORMAL TIMES At Central State Normal LOCK HAVEN, PA., SEPTEMBER VOLUME 4 School 24,1925 S' Under the direction of Coach Fredericks the Maroon and Grey squad is buckling down to the real work of the season. The flrst week or more was spent in the usual preliminary work of getting the men into the mental as well as the physical shape necessary to produce a great football combination. The last two years Normal has seemingly produced football combinations when even the most ojitomistic of the game followers had become pessemistic over the outcome. This, to a great extent, has been due to the mental attitude which the coaches have instilled in the men. That attitude is still there. The squad will come then. That Coach Fredericks has a problem on his hands, we must admit. The nucleus around which he must build his te.am is smaller than was expected. Only Pomeroy, Ward, McDowell, Fitzsimmons, Ulmer, and Bitner are back from last year's squad. However, there is au abundance of new material. Shuey, formerly of L . H . H. S., will likely take over the key position. He is a player of some note in Central Pennsylvania, and will live up to his reputation. Forsht handled the high school state champs last year and is ready to do the same with a normal state champ team. Taylor comes from Juniata College and is known as a "Holy Terror" iu the line. ColTey, tile grent triple threat man from L. II. II.
