After playing its football games at WinstonSalem State for the past few seasons, the Tiny Indians Football Club has a new home. The team has moved its operations to Atkins Field, where the organization's president, Ike Howar$K hobes-th?Tiny Indians will develop a new identity. "Atkins is centralized in the black community and it offers us the facilities where we feel the organization can continue to crow." savs Hnwarri "Our primary role is to create community involvement. We're a football program, but our basic purpose is to develop kids totally as individuals within the concept of community." -- Tiny Indians President Ike Ho ward "The black community has not taken advantage of facilities they pay taxes on and we think the move to Atkins will move us in that direction. "We wanted to take a strong leadership position in showing that the Tiny Indians are a black organization and as such should be in a location centralized to blacks." In the past decade, the Tiny Indians have been a force in the local Pop Warner League. Their list of former players include Winston-Salem State's Ed Byers, Leonardo Horn and Clifton Mack, Kenny Duckett of the New Orleans Saints and Kennard Martin, Charles Baldwin, Dedrick Barber and Herman McKinnie, who all currently star in local high school programs. While the organization continues to turn out the stars of tomorrow in sports, Howard says the program V focus^ encompasses much more than athletics. ^ The CIAA This Week i Rams square off ixTidTi T ivinnctnnn TT1U1 XJ1 f By SAM DAVIS Chronicle Sports Editor Now that the CI AA football season is reaching its midway point, the Northern and Southern Division races are really beginning to take form. Defending champ Virginia Union has its hands full trying to catch up with Norfolk State and Hampton, while Winston-Salem State is bracing for the task of holding off North Carolina Central over the final six games. At this point, Hampton seems to have the inside track for the title in the North, having already defeated Union, while NorfolJuState must battle hnili I^nin^ pn COnSCCUtive weekends later this month. However, if either team falters prior to that time, the standings could take on a new look. The crucial matchup this week pits Southern frontrunner Winston-Salem against Mel Rose's Livingstone team, which has not played up to its potential thus far this season. Other conference games include Bowie State at Fayetteville State and North Carolina Central at Norfolk State.
