SDoru DCdl in HILL JOHNSON — — I KICKING THE FACTS AROUND.

Commissioner Bob Moorman has upheld the disputed 14-13 football victoi^ Fayetteville State scored over Shaw three weeks ago. Shaw officials protested the triumph following a controversial play that allegedly came after the final whistle had blown. Have you ever seen a better series than last week’s American and National Leagues Play offs? Or a better, more exciting football contest than the Alabama-Southern California strueele of last Saturday? Don’t believe the rumor that the American whiskey market is showing decline. It seems to be doing very well in my neighborhood! North Carolina A&T expects more than 20,000 alumni and friends to participate in their annual homecoming celebration in Greensboro this weekend... For what it’s worth Earnest “Warhorse” Williams has my bid for a well-deserved berth with any and all the All-America football teams selected later this year. The flashy junior’s extra-ordinary talent should take him all the way to the NFL... Wonder why I haven’t heard from ole buddy “Scoop” Henderson, the able public relations director down at Fayetteville State? Quarterback Russ Seaton of Hampton is having a super year. The gifted senior has completed 46 of 102 passes for 528 yards, including nine touchdowns. He’s been intercep ted onlv five times. Did you know that Sherwood Rankin is a sophomore nose guard at Hampton Institute?... Word from the campus at UNCC are that the ^school s basketball season ticket sales are going f extremely well*’ UNO* ,alsa^ excited about their women’s golf team and the women’s volleyball team. If Karate is your thing, you will enjoy a visit to the Park Center Saturday night for the National Karate Association’s Professional Full-Contact Karate event. It will feature the super light weight of the world, Tony Lopez against Dave Sirota, who’s from New Jersey. The ole crystal ball suffered a mild let down last week with 8 winners and 2 losers in 10 picks Fayetteville State and North Carolina A&T gave the crystal ball a black eye with big upsets, leaving our accuracy rating at 27 right and six wrong for the season. We’re going out on the limb again this week in selecting Elizabeth City to whip Fort Bragg. As we see it, Winston-Salem will continue to roll, with an easy victory over Fayetteville State and Livingstone will deal further embarrassment to Johnson C. Smith’s losing skein. Hampton will get by Norfolk State and Virginia State will defeat Howard. N.C. Central will make their homecoming fans happy with a triumph over Delaware State and A&T should encounter no trouble in defeating Maryland-Eastern Shore... S.C. State will edge Morgan State in that big one down at Orangeburg.
