(Bob Fallstrom provided this fond remembrance of Gay Kintner Friday night at the dedication of Kintner Gym II in Stephen Decatur High School) Gay Kintner is gone. Kintner Gym is gone. Gay Kinter was an original.

So was Kintner Gym. There is no replacing Gay Kintner. At least we can assure that the Kintner heritage never does. By dedicating another Kintner Gym. Kintner Gym II.

Let me tell you about Gay kintner. Gay Kintner slumped to the floor in front of the Stephen Decatur bench while Stephen Decatur and MacArthur were warming up for the second half of a basketball game Feb. 15, 1960 at Mac-Arthur. Gay Kintner never regained consciousness. Gay Kintner was dead.

"It can't be," cried a Stephen Decatur fan, breaking into tears. As Gay Kintner was being wheeled to an ambulance, a bystander said: "There goes the best man this town has ever seen." Indeed, Gay Kintner was a legend In high school basketball. He coached Decatur High into the No. 1 team in the state. Kintner Gym, the original Kintner Gym, was built because of the popularity of Kintner's teams.

After Decatur won the state championship in 1936 for the second time and was runnerup in 1937, the Armory would no longer hold the crowds which demanded to see Gay Kintner's teams play. So a new gym, seating 4,200, was built. It was filled for almost every game. After Decatur won the 1945 state championship, the gym was officially named "Kintner Gym." Gay Kintner's teams won 649 games in 32 years. Still, the scent of victory was ever fresh.

Gay Kintner was in ill health much of the season just before he died; he had a persistent cold and a racking cough. Yet he wanted one more shot at the state championship.

He also wanted the players to win in the more important game of life. Wanting to win meant hard work. Gay Kintner spent countless hours in scouting trips. Many times he out-maneuvered the opposing coach because of the scouting trips. Many of you remember Gay Kintner: His machine-gun voice.

The twinkle in his eye. Crouching near the bench, intent on the game. Chalking a play on the floor. Holding his head in his hands when a player goofed. One night above all was unique in Kintner Gym.
