FEBRUARY, 1978 THE VOICE PAGE 5 Litter Campaign l^eeded by Lillie Booth Coke, Budweiser, Ken tucky Fried Chicken, Mc Donald’s, The Golden Skillet and others are doing great business according to the litter scattered around campus. I would like to believe that possibly the remains scattered so carelessly about are the results of visitors that have come bearing gifts, but un fortunately, I know otherwise. What I don’t understand is why the problem exists. There are trash receptacles placed all over campus, in classrooms, and hallways. Therefore, a place for disposable items is no problem. And since the containers state that we take pride in Our campus. I’m even more puzzled. Perhaps the problem has developed because un consciously we aren’t aware that it is happening. Maybe the remedy will be a gentle reminder that the problem is occurring. It is my job, your job and our responsibility to see that our campus is litter free. We are ingenious enough to develop our own personal “campus litter free” cam paign. We are Broncos bur sting with FSU pride and we are capable of getting any job done. I’m starting my cam paign today. Will you join me? IVorfolk State Student IHakes Pii*st In CIAA Annals Vivian Greene of the Norfolk State Spartanettes, passed the 2000 point scoring mark last week, making her the first in CIAA annals to accomplish this feat and is believedto be the first woman in Virginia sports history to reach such a milestone. FALCONS Almost!!! This must be a dream. That must have been what the coach of St. Augustine College was thinking as he watched his team lose the closest game of their season. The Falcons battled back from a fourteen point spread to six at the half and the dream began to come true. William Cooper from St. Augustine who had scored 8 points in the last few minutes thought he had won the game for his team after shooting the last shot...but that’s where the dream became a nightmare. James Jackson shot the ball with five seconds on the clock. Cooper grabbed the rebound and reached half court before shooting. The shot went in and the Falcons thought they had won the game. Cheers went up for the Falcons from the team and supporters when an official signaled points good. The other official signaled that the points were no good because time had run out on the clock and Broncos had won the game. Who was right? It seemed as if no one knew. Both coaches were saying that their team had won when they reached the scoring table. St. Augustine has appealed to the Commissioner of the CIAA. rETm% I .YETTEP m Kneeling L-R: Anthmiy Tull, Reggie Ward, Charles Peoples, James Jackson, Charles Murray, Ar- nold Chambers.

Fayetteville Statens First For the first time in the school’s history, the Broncos played on state-wide television. The Broncos played against St. Augustine in Raleigh. The Broncos were lead by CIAA scored Edward Jef ferson, Freshman sensation Charles Peoples and Junior Arnold Chambers. CIAA NEWS CIAA teams are making their presence felt in Division II and NAIA basketball. Ricky Mahom, Hampton Institute, is averaging 24.4 points per game, Herbert Entzminger, J.C. Smith, 23.5 and Ed Jef ferson, Fayetteville State are among the top twenty scorers in the NAIA. Elizabeth City’s Thomas Blue has led the NCAA Division II Colleges all year in rebounding, but last week Blue was overtaken by Shaw University freshman forward Jeffrey Johnson who leads the CIAA with a 17.1 per game average. Johnson joined the Shaw Bears at the beginning of the second semester. Norfolk State and Hampton Institute are 8th and 9th respectively on the NAIA rebounding list, while Virginia State’s 96.1 per game scoring rates the Trojans number four in team offense. Winston-Salem’s un defeated Rams, tied for first place in winning percentage among the nation’s small colleges are rated number three in District 26 according to the Dunkel rating system. Fayetteville State is rated ninth. The CIAA’s Northern Division pictured has cleared. The four Northern Division tournament teams will be Elizabeth City St., Norfolk St., Hampton Institute and Virginia Union. Yet to be decided is the actual pairing of the teams as it appears that the final standings will not be decided until the season’s end. The tournament represen tatives remain cloudy in the Southern Division. Winston- Salem St. and Fayetteville St. are in. The two remaining slots are being hotly contested by the remaining four teams. At present all four have a shot. The final week of CIAA competition should prove very exciting and interesting. During a week of im portant contests, Hampton Institute clinched their tournament berth by winning two out of three. Their clin cher was their rout of Virginia Union. This will be Hampton’s first appearance in the tournament in many years. Elizabeth City went three for three and at present occupy the top spot in the Northern Division. Norfolk State seems to have put it all together and also went undefeated. They are currently riding a six game winning streak. Virginia Union won a close one from St. Augustine’s. Then disaster struck and they have lost their last two outings. They presently oc cupy the fourth place spot. Virginia State was eliminated from tournament competition when they lost two of tli'ee. St. Paul’s already eliminated, continued their losing streak as they dropped the two games they played. In the Southern Division, Winston-Salem continued to pull away. They upped their conference record to 13-0 remaining undefeated for the week. Fayetteville main tained a hold on second place as they split a pair. Livingstone rebounded from a defeat to Hampton by sur prising Virginia State. Livingstone’s chances for a tournament berth appear at this point to be excellent. St. Augustine’s split a pair and moved into fourth place. Shaw and Johnson C. Smith went winless, however, they still hope to land the coveted fourth spot which will bring them to Hampton and the tournament. CIAA Standings Northern Division Conf. Eiiz.

When the final horn had sounded there were a few changes among the teams vying for CIAA tournament playoff slots. The Northern Division has tightened. Elizabeth City State, the leader a week ago had slipped to fourth by virtue of losing two. Their second loss, to Virginia State, was protected based on a discrepancy with a field goal in the closing seconds. The commissioner will act on this within the next few days. Hampton Institute has taken over the top spot by splitting a pair. Virginia Union and Norfolk State are deadlocked for the second and third place spots. Union ap pears to have readjusted and went two for two. Norfolk State copped three. Virginia State took to the courts three times and emerged victorious. Although only one of their three victories was a con ference win, they still hang on to a slim hope of nabbing the fourth playoff spot. St. Paul’s failed to win in three tries and appear to be out of post season competition. Over in the Southern Division, Winston-Salem State remained undefeated in conference play. However, they had their long winning streak snapped as they fell to defeat at the hands of North Carolina A&T. The scramble for the three remaining tournament spots continued. Fayetteville remained in second place by winning against Livingstone. The battle for the remaining two spots goes on. At present Shaw University, which occupied sixth place a week ago, holds down third place. Livingstone occupies the remaining spot, with J.C. Smith Univ. and St’ Augustine’s close behind.
