Despite the slight marginal scoring advantage en joyed by Livingstone, the game was hard fought and could have gone either way. Livingstone scored all four touchdowns with passes to their tight end, Sutton. Their ground game was stopped almost entirely by the tough Bronco defense, featuring, Charles Lane, Haywood Sharpe, and George Lowery just to name a few of the mighty Broncos defensive team. The Bronco offense looked good in many spots, especially when quarterback Sam Jones hit freshman end stand-out, Calvin Davis on a 70 yard pass play. The Broncos went on to score when Jones hit Danny McMillan on a 23 yard touch-down pass. (That was one of the few bright spots in what proved to be a disappointing day for the Broncos.) Broncos Dead-Lock With Shaw 8-8 The Fayetteville State Broncos tied the Shaw eleven in what proved to be their most fierce battle of their campaign. Early in the first period, Sam Jones faked a punt and hit Danny McMillan with a pass for a forty-three yard gain. Another Jones to McMillan pass brought the ball up to the twelve yard line. Jones then passed to Calvin Davis for the touch-down. For the T. D. conversion Jones hit Robert Allen on a down and outer. Shaw, however, was not to be denied. Their quarterback, Charles Patterson, moved the ball swiftly up the field, with roll-outs and passes to his ends Long and Turner. From the ten yard line, he hit Long on a “z. out” pattern for the tally. Turner caught Patterson’s pass for the extra point. Then the real battle began with both de fenses red hot, and bringing much smoke. Neither team would give an inch, much less another touch-down. After the dust had cleared and the battle was over, the final score was an 8-8 tie. Fred McMillan, Charlie Lane, Lester Brown, Ronnie Cox, Haywood Sharpe and Willie Bond played some rugged heads up defense for the Broncos. The Fayetteville State Broncos Blast St. Pauls 14-6 With the fine passing of Sam Jones and the swift, smooth running of Robert Allen, Eugene Greene and Dwight Thomas, the Fayetteville State Broncos rolled over St. Pauls’ eleven. The death toll rang early for St. Paul when Allen took a pitch out from Jones and sped off tackle for thirty yards and a touch-down. Jones also passed to Allen for the after touchdown conversion. The Broncos were on the move again in the next period as Sam Jones hit Carl Smith on nineteen and fifteen yard pass plays. Two fine runs by Allen and Thomas brought the ball up to the three. Eugene Greene took it over from the three with a smashing plunge into the line. The offensive line should be commended for its fine blocking and pass protection. Wilbur Jones, Lester Brown, Desmond (Lario) Larrier, Richard Mosby, Hyman Caldwell and Mike Cooper did a great job of protecting the passer and making holes for the backs. St. Pauls could get no where on the ground as the stingy Bronco defense led by Edmund Tyrance, Ronnie Cox and Macon Mahomes gave up only 5 yards and one touch-down. Rams Spoil Home Opener The Winston-Salem Rams spoiled FSC’s first home game 20-6. The visitors scored twice on passes of 46 yards in the first period, 25 yards in the fourth quarter, and on a dazzling 70 yard run by Butch Anderson in the second stanza. Bob Allen staved off a Ram shutout, climaxing a Bronco 67 yard drive with an eleven yard dash in the last quarter. Ed Tyrance, Co-captain and Center for the Broncos, made his last appearance in the tilt ,before reporting for military duty. The Boncos are now 1-2-1 in the grid wars. Sporting Around The Saint Louis Cards behind the sensational pitching of Bob Gibson beat the Boston Red Sox 7-2 for the World Series Champion ship. Emile Griffith recovered the middleweight championship title from Nino Benuenuti. Tommie Smith recently revealed it is "unlikely at this time” that Negro Athletes would boycott the 1968 Olympic Games at Mexico City. Cornell Spells may win a bert on the C l.A.A. all managers club this year. Everyone is wondering how Frank Renfro manages to play bas ketball with those big shoes he has been wearing lately. Earl Monroe is still shooting ’em down even in the pros but says he has trouble with his defense. Wilt Chamberlain signed for a record $250,000 to play for Phila delphia this year. Desmond Larrier’s sweat socks ran away from him when he tried to put them on for practice the other day . . . Intramural Football Forecast The Soul Brothers look like the team to beat this year in the intra mural flag football legaue. The Soul Brothers have a very competent coach in Jessie “The lip” Green. Returning from Isat year’s squad, he has Gary “Thin Man” Johnson, Wayne “Night-Train” King, Mike “Mr. Line-backer” Johnson, Larry “Worm” Whitehurst, Alfred “Word a Minute” White, Elgin “Tic” Battle, and Exum “Hair cut” Morrison. The Golden P.E.M.'s are not as strong as they have been in pre vious years with only three all leaguers returning. These are: Johnny, "super man” Davis, L. C. “Swamp Rat” Cooley, and Wilson “Vodoo” Jackson. The Eagles have only two returning players Charles “Hands” Baker, and John “Wildman” Parks. Other teams that may be in the running are The Kittens and The D. C. Playboys. Come out to the games on Saturday and back your favorite teams! CORRECTION: Danny McMillan was listed on the football varsity ros ter as a junior. To avoid further confusion, Danny is, in reality, a scholastic senior and he is President of the Senior Class, but he has played ball only three years. ATHLETE-OF-THE-MONTH Edmund Tyrance, September’s athlete of the month, is a native of Jacksonville, North Carolina. ED TYRANCE He attended Georgetown High School where he starred in foot ball and basketball for four years. Edmund, or Galimore as he is called by his friends, is five feet ten and one-hundred ninety seven pounds of dynamite on the offen sive line or as a defensive line backer. When asked about Tyrance, coach Doub said, “Without a doubt, Tyrance is a real inspira tion to the team on both offense and defense; Ed is a real hard- nosed football player.” Edmund leaves soon to go to the Navy and he will be missed by his teammates and his friends around the campus. Good luck Edmund Tyrance! The Voice salutes you, athlete of the month! AS I SEE IT By Frank McMillan Those of us who failed to see the Bronco-Shaw game two weeks ago really missed a treat. Two bus loads of Broncos saw the game; however, along with those who went in cars. The two teams went at each other as though they were playing for the C.I.A.A. Champion ship. When all the dust cleared away and the action came to a halt, the scoreboard showed that the teams had battled to an 8 to 8 tie. The players and Coach Doub felt that they should have beaten Shaw. “We should have won, the coach explained, “because we beat them everywhere except on the score board. Over anxiety to win was a contributing factor to our errors of omission and commission, but there were definite improvements made since our opening game.” The Broncos continued to show signs of improvement as they hoofed St. Paul 14 to 6 at St. Paul last week. Contributing heavily to this great effort was Ed Tyrance, known as Galimore. The 5’ 10”, 197 pound junior, from Georgetown High School of Jacksonville, North Carolina played one of the greatest games of his career. For his ef fort, the “Big Gal” was given the game ball. This was probably Gal’s last game on the road as a Bronco. He has to report to Uncle Sam next week. He will be playing his final home game against the Rams this week. When asked about how he felt about leaving the team, he had this to say, “The position I played on the team was a key one, but I’m sure Coach Doub will come up with someone who can do the job.” Like all C.I.A.A. football players,” Gali- more’s greatest ambition was to make the C.I.A. A. Football Squad. Those of us who saw the Big Gal in action would certainly agree that he had a good chance of making it. Allen, Galimore, Francis (98), Sutphin, Vance, Sharpe, Wilbur Jones, Sam Jones, Mike, Seward, Merritt, Mosby, Greene, Danny, Lane, Brown, and “the Meatball,” have expressed confidence of beat ing Winston-Salem. Perhaps the general feelings of the players were expressed by Lane when he said, “We want to win this for Gal.” n JACKIE COLES THE WHOLE SQUAD V r ANNIE McCRAE F. S. C. BRONCO MAJORETTES What is a band without fine majorettes? Every afternoon during football season, the Bronco majorettes are seen stepping high, trying hard with deep desire to make this year a bright one for the Bronco marching band. Three additional majorettes have been added to the squad this year. They are: Alicia Adcock, Raleigh, N. C.; Jacqueline Cole, Richmond, Va.; and Hilda Graham, Kinston, N. C. The entire majorette squad is really getting on the ball; therefore, everything looks very promising for the marching season of 1967-68. Now what is a band without majorettes? FSC will never know.
