Vlhtngs Stop FSIJ, 6-0 What was thought by CIAA fans as a possible “easy” game for Ray Mc- Dougal’s Fayetteville State Broncos turned out to be a titanic defensive battle here at Elizabeth City’s homecoming game. The final score read: Elizabeth City, 6 and Fayetteville State, 0. However, Tod Caldwell’s club tried to give the game to the visiting Broncos by coughing up the football at least four times when the Fayetteville defensive front recovered the pigskin as many times during the first half inside the Viking’s forty yard line. But the Broncos could not muster a drive offensively. McDougal called on kicking specialist James WiUiams to boot three points on the scoreboard when the visitors reached the ten yard line after recovering a first half fumble. FSKJ Ties l^orfolh St. For Lead With Win Over Livingstone Fayetteville State University’s football team and Livingstone’s team met her with the same things on their minds. Both coaches realized also what was at stake. It was a “MUST GAME” for both teams. But when the dust settled at Livingstone’s Alumni Stadium, coach Ray Mc Dougal and his Bronco-men had chalked up their fifth straight win and the proud Livingstone squad coached by Baxter Holeman, had dropped their second straight CIAA loss. The score read 15-7 when the referees signaled the end of the game with the Livingstone team frantically knocking at the Bronco door at the FSU one yard line at tempting to score. But time ran out for the home team. ForFayettevilleState, the win moved them into a three- way tie for the league lead and McDougal’s squad posts a highly impressive 6-1 overall worksheet and stand 4-1 in the CIAA.

Livingstone is 3-2 overall and 2-2 in the league. Fayetteville State has three games remaining for the ’75 regular season but played the contest with the Livingstone Blue Bears as if it were a “Championship Game.” The hosts wasted little time in getting on the scoreboard first when half back Bernard Hill raced 15 yards for the initial TD. An drew Conney converted for a 7-0 Livingstone lead with 13:42 remaining in first stanza. At this point, the Bears apppeared to have the momentum and the visitors seemed stunned and “flat”. However, field goal specialist James Williams booted a 35 yard three-pointer for the Broncos, with 10:07 remaining in the second frame to narrow the margin to 7-3. With only 22 seconds left before the half, a Fayetteville State miscue plus a Livingstone mistake resulted in a touchdown for the Broncos and the lead for good. 1 . -r HAMP REID acent Reid, FSU golf leader, has led to three tournc ictories this fall.

Lucien: he’s sensuous, sinuous, relaxed and romantic. In person or on record, a very special man with a very special music. He sold out Carnegie Hall during this summer’s Newport Jazz Festival in New York, and he’ll be on tour all around the country later on this year. Lucien: an experience not to be missed.
