fjm TMK CAItOUNA ‘HMU SATUH0AY, NpV. 11, ItSt ST. AUGUSTINE WEAKENS TO SMfTH 9. AGGIES-PIRATES FIGHT TO DEADLOCK Bulls Hold In Power; Point To Hornecoming OHARLOTH:— Two complete Johnsun C. Smith defeated a game tear.i re- preteniing St. Aug'ustine Coll- •ire of ■ Raleigh last Saturduy afternoon at the A^riCiWi Legion Stadium, but 14 0 margin of victory was not near ly aa large as cxpected. Strange ly enough, the “second” team, which started the game, ^pnrked by young Claude Pogue, 15t( pcund half back from Sumter, S. C., who furnished thj fire works of the day, niak'ng’ a touchdown in the first- n'lnutes of play, and hitting the line for tie conversion. Soon after these seven j-oint* were chalked up, in came the “first” team and the crowd settled back to see the massa cre, but the Raleigh boys phow- ed themselves very effective when the local team was nearing ■pay dirt, and time after time thrust the Bulls feack when t uch downs treatened. The Raleigh boys showed practically nothing in the way of attack, crossing the midfield «tripe «nly pnce, and making only one first down to 17 for the Smith lads, but they showed unexpected resistance when pay dirt was near. It was not until late 'n the fourth period d 1 d Kenneth Powell New Rochelle, N.

THE UNCEASING DOWNPOUR OP RAIN fn Raleigh Saturday put the damper on the Homecoming festivities at Shaw Unlvetity, ibut toy no means did it lessen the furiousness and the bitterness of the coijfrict between the Bears aijd the North , Carolina College Eagles. We saw out there on Shaw's i^nuddy field two of the CIAA’s most powerful teams fighting with every' f^ber in theii- be ings; but they were so evenly matched that the b^t that they had to offer each other in the attempt to score proved to no avail in most cases. However, the Nort'h Carolina College team, which shows improvement with every game, was smart enpwgh and elert enough to register a 7-0 victory. It was “Pete rWilly who in the first quarter of the game caught “Schoolboy” Howard, Shaw end, out o^ place and broke through the line to block Gene Hartington’s punt and to recover it for a touchdown. Now there are those who have said that State oidn’t have any business winning that game—“it was luck,” they said. “The Eagles just got a break and the score would just hs easily have been 0-0 IF they hadn't got that break,” other said. But the facts are that what these grandstand quartenback CASUALLY re fer to as breaks are all in the game, and the team that has been coached to take all the breaks after making them as Willy I did Saturday, is the team that bring the victory home. The Eagles showed aom real fight and spirit out there Sat- urUay and fought like champ ions from start to finish. One fine exhibition of spirit and solidarity was shown just be fore the referee’s whistle be gan the fireworks. The men who had been selected tu start the game, for HCC ran out the field and lineg up for the kick off and Just Before the action started, the entire squad rushed on the field the to giv^a their teammates the final good luck jvishes. Evidently these wishes helped, fcnr they went right on and !ma|e a Aouchdows cdtnd •have been made by noth- ing but an alert team. We are sure of seeing c^e of those old fashioned battles that were seen in t'he d*ys ol Malone, Dooms, Alston, Bus Holems and Riddick, when the Eaglet en tertain the undefeated A A T Aggies here Thanksgiving.

Archie Hargraves GiREEJNSBORO— The stiAiburn Hampton Pirates battled the league leading A and T Aggies to a scorlesa tie at Memorial stadium last Satur day in a grid encounter played In a sea of mud. 2,00 spectators braved the dismal downjfoui to witness the clash. The Aggies wer^ in cooring distance twice, once »t the be ginning of the second period when Wilson, giant A t.nd T tackle blocked Griffin’s punt on the Hampton 16 yard line. A series of line plunges by Jimmie Walker, Aggies tailback, nlaced them on the sixth marke> but thfc Pirate line . held for four downs. Hampton then kicked beautifully out of danger. In the closing fgur minutts of th« game, Homer Harris sent in bis ace s«rial tosser Edwin Moore to turn the tid^ for vic tory.

Both teams played car«ful tootiball daring the oyiiiny minutes of the game puating on first downs and waitiinc.. for the breaks with the locals^ttint m alight advantage. A blocked punt by tK« Ag|{i«a gave them their first break %ut they failed to go over, for the tally. Later in the period in the second period the Aggie flarted marching down the field om a sustained drive, with Wa*ker, Stevenaon and Griffin altcrnat' ing in carrying the ball. A fumlble at the erucial luoiaent resulted in this advance being ntopped. ^ ^ The Hanrtpt^n eleven dominat ed the play in the thin^ |>eiUd is now general knowledge that the Durham boya were the vicr tims of soaje of the poorest officiatng-that has been seen in many a game.

The «upet4) punting of K C.'s halback, Thomas, figured much in keeping Clark’s back to ite own postb. Taking the ball on the 50 yard line'lit the opening of the 4th period the Bulldogs niarhced straight down the field with Henderson finally crossing for the first tally. Madison hit cen ter for the extra point. The second touchdown came shortly. After Clark received on their 23 yard line, they fuinbl^ and it was recover^ for th^ the K.
