A tourn- Eagles Nipped- (Continued fro Page 11) and led 26-25 with only two sec onds left to play-. At this point, Sam Jones passed in to Charlie Badger, who was behind the mid-court line, dribbled once and shot the most spectacular shot of the evening to put the Eagles into a three point lead at half- time, 28-25, A revised group of Panthers came on the court to start the second half with Coach Harris’ star, Carl Smith, center, on the bench. Smith had scored only one point during the entire first half, but it was his rebounding that kept Union in the game dur ing that half. This group played a head-up game until Coach Har ris inserted Smith once again with his team still three points behind and 11 minutes left to paly. Smith entered and scored nine points for a total of ten for the evening and his rebounding was a great factor in the last minutes of play. The Eagles put up a valiant try to capture the game in the later minutes but bad passes, no team work, and refusing to pump under both boards were their !^e play of Gil Riley, John Keels, Sam Jones, James Sligh, and Carlton Bell rejuvenated the crowd many time's during the last half, though this wasn’t quite enough to keep the bacon in the Eagles’ nest. ment, single-elimination, among the four top teams in each lea gue will highlight the participa tion at the close of the campaign.

College Aggies on Thanks giving Day, November 22, be fore 8,500 fans on O’Kelly Field to clinch at least a third part of the CIAA crown for the third time in the past four years. The game was scoreless until less than two minutes before the end of the first half. Then the Eagles proved to the fans that they deserved to be the champions by scoring twice in a short period of time. The first score came with the ball resting on the Aggies’ ten yard line. It was first and goal for the Eagles when Coach Rid-i dick sent Dearl Webster in to replace Cliff Jackson. With everyone thinking that Webster would attempt a field goal, he quickly threw a pass to end, Bobby Johnson, who had got ten behind the Aggies’ defense for the score. Webster’s PAT was good. After Webster had kicked off to the Aggies in those dying minutes of the first half, the Aggies went to the air in an ef fort to catch up.

In many in-i stances, the general student body does not know who they are, why they are here, or any thing concerning them. If a per son is given some responsibili ties, his interest is aroused, and he developes a feeling of be longing. There will never be any sciiool spirit here, to any ex tent, so long as students feel that no one cares ■ about them other than their money each month. Do you wish to be one of those persons who hesitate to return to our dear old Alma Mater after graduation because of the lack of school spirit you have now? Don’t you want to be* able to return in years to comej and see and feel that old NCC spirit as you enter the Campus? Sincerely, William H. Anderson ard, intercepted an enemy pass for the second score. Again Webster’s PAT was good. The score at half time was NCC; 14, A. and T.: 0. There was no more scoring until late in the third period when Carvis Bullock, fullback, found a big hole on the left side of his line and raced 78- yards for the final tally. At no time did the Aggies gq past the twenty yard stripe of the Eagles because of the fine defense set up by tiie Eagles’ line. Hank Lewis, Bo'oby Johnson, Baxter Holman, John Baker, Joe Allen, Duke Saunders, Francis Roberts, Hal Joyner, Cliff Jackson, Carvis Bullock, and A1 Montgomery composed the starting^ team that showed the largest crowd of the season their best in football fare. NCC, Delaware, Morgan North Carolina College, Dela ware, and Morgan were declar ed tied for the championship in the 17 college CIAA’s 1956 gridiron race in standings re leased by L. T. Walker, confer ence satistician. The three schools posted iden tical Dickinson ratings of 26.25. Maryland State, defending champion, is in fourth place. The Dickinson system figures team stand^ings on the basis of the strength of opponents. The Eagles ended the season with a 5-0-2 record while Dela ware and Morgan ended with an identical 5-0-1 record in con ference play. - Riddick says he is supported in his claim by computations from former CIAA statisticians J. B- McLendon Jr., now head basketball coach of Tennessee State. Official announcement of all conference championship will be made at the CIAA an nual meeting. Riddick’s protest will be presented at the annual meeting. A. Phi A. Welcomes Neophytes By ROBERT SIMMONS The members of Gamma Beta chapter of Alpha Phi Alpha' Fraternity welcome brothers James E.
