Two Flu Shots Required To Speak At Fairview Topic: Civil Rights The Rev. Ralph D. Abernathy (right), president of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference, listens to some advice from Dick Gregory during SCLC’s 16th annual convention in Indianapolis. Rev. Abernahy, who dramatically resigned from the SCLC a few weeks back saw his resignation rejected by the executive board of th organization when they met in convention. Abernathy was re elected president and given unprecedented powers to hire and fire staff without approval of the board of directors. Clay Williams Two llu shots will be required this winter to provide maximum protec tion. "This year’s flu situa tion is sort of unique,” says Dr. }. N. MacCor- mack, head of the Gommunicable Disease Control Branch of the Division of Health Ser vices. "Not only do we have to worry about the type "A" strain of flu, but also have to worry about a new type “B” flu virus first spotted in Hong Kong in 1972. It later caused considerable ill ness in Australia and England,” MacCormack said. The pubhc health officer said it is difficult to say when this new type “B” will reach the United States. “If it behaves as flu viruses have in the past we know it will get here eventually,” he ventured. "The rapidity with which flu spreads is not predictable. All we can do is prepare for its highly probable arrival.” MacCormack pointed out that each spring companies gear up to make flu vaccine for the coming winter. He said vaccine production for the 1973-74 season began before the new type “B” was identified. Now, manufacturers are mak ing two types of flu vaccine, one for the prevention of type "A” and the older type "B” flu, and a single vaccine to be used against the new type "B”. The communicable dis ease specialist said the vaccines will have to be given separately for maximum protection against flu this winter. He said the newer type “B" vaccine should be avail able sometime in Septem ber. He warned that both flu shots should be given in the early fall, about two weeks apart, for proper immunization. MacCormack remarked that one of the character istics of influenza noted through the years has been that when a new type appears, and new types of "A” and “B” have appeared at fairly regular intervals, the new virus replaced an old one. Having suffered a parti cular type of flu does not protect a person from another type. The stand ard flu vaccine containing the older type “B” virus and the new type "A" virus may not be of much good in protecting against the new type “B” virus that may show up this winter. MacCormack said one of the interesting aspects of influenza is that recent evidence suggests that viruses may be recycling themselves. He said it used to be felt that every 10 or 15 years a type "A” virus no one had ever seen would come along. However, blood studies done on people who had had flu at the turn of the century suggested that perhaps the Asian flu virus of 1957 and the Hong Kong virus of 1968 really had been seen before. The recycling notion is of interest to biologists charged- with the respon sibility of producing flue vaccines. MacCormack said the problem with influenza control is that virus change is often unpredictable. To com pound the immunization problem it takes several months to get a new vaccine into production. “The London flu virus we saw last winter is thought to be a variation Milton StaUings, Dir ector of Model Cities Citizen Participation pro ject, will be guest speaker at the Fairview Street School P.T.A. meeting to be held on September 11, 1973 at 8:00 p.m. The theme of his speech will be “Citizen Participation in the Future”. Stallings has served on the Region Four Citizens Council Board of Dir ectors for two and one-half years. He is the chairman of the Region Four Credential Commit tee and has been elected as delegate for North Carolina at the National Citizen Participation Council to be held in Washington, D. C., Sept ember 22 thru 26, 1973. He has had eleven years experience dealing in human services. Mr. Stallings has one daughter, Maria. He is married to the former Juanita Chestnut. Thely live at 1122 Cedrow Drive, High Point. of the Hong Kong flu virus,” MacCormack said. "Evidence suggests that viruses we’ve been seeing since 1957 have been around before, or varia tions of them. Making a concrete determination concerning the recycling of flu viruses is difficult because we do not have the actual virus from earlier periods to work with due to the fact that the science of virology was not sufficiently de veloped at the time Asian and Hong Kong epidemics occurred at the turn of the century.” MacCormack recom mends that people with heart or lung diseases, and other chronic dis eases such as diabetes or other metabolic dis orders, be especially wary of going through a winter without being properly immunized against flu. Central Intercollegiate Athletic Association, Footbajl 1973 RICHMOND, VA. — Central Intercollegiate Athletic Association foot ball mentors have a reputation of being pessi mistic; however, they have reversed that trend and the majority of them are optimistic about the 1973 football season. "I think we can win it”, "We have a fine nucleus returning and with luck we’ll take the title”, "We are loaded”, are typical comments received from a poll of the eleven grid mentors in the tv/o-state tobacco league. There will be two new coaches in the CIAA this season and they are Dwayne Jeter at Virginia State College and Jesse Clements at Shaw Uni versity. Jeter, a super recruiter, replaces the departed Dr. Walter Lovett, who has returned to the classroom fulltime. Clements takes over the Shaw reins from George Clements. Veteran coaches re turning include Eddie McGirt, Johnson C. Smith University; Raymond Mc- Dougal. Fayetteville State University; Tom Caldwell, Elizabeth City State Uni versity; Cleo Wallace, Winston Salem State University; Willard Bai ley, Virginia Union Uni versity; Whitney Van Cleve, Hampton Institute: J. D. Marshall, Living stone College; Moses Golatt, Saint Paul’s- Col lege and Robert Ledbet ter, Norfolk State College. The CIAA has sacked the two divisions within the league and all games will count. League offic ials have asked the National Collegiate Ath letic Association (NCAA) to sanction a December football game between the grid champions of the CIAA and the Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (SIAC). If it is approved, the game will be played in Atlanta, Georgia. Despite the fact that all of the CIAA grid coaches are optimistic, a poll indicates that the senti ment goes with Virginia State College, Johnson C. Smith University, Winston Salem State University and darkhouse Norfolk State College. Virginia State College is the defending champion in the league. The trojans earned this mantel by knocking off Johnson C. Smith University 17-6 in the championship game. Coach Jeter will inherit a fine nucleus. A look at his roster will reveal that he has 45 players returning with some kind of experience. Heading the list are five individuals who made the All-CIAA team during 1973 and they include Michael Hayes, 6-4. 225-lbs. end; Harold Hathaway. 6-3, 222-lbs tackle; Ronald Harris. 6-2. 225-lbs, defensive back; and Robert Chavis, a 6-0, 250-lbs. kicking specialist. In addition, the Trojans have running back Greg Brewer in the fold, and kicker James Dugger. Johnson C. Smith Uni versity has been building for two years and many observers say that this is the year for the Golden Bulls. Coach McGirt solved his quaterback problem last year with the talented Luther Carter and he will lead the offensive attack. Carter led the league in total offense last season with a 137.5-yards per game average. Carter also led the loop in passing and scored 42 points. Smith has a host of lettermen and these include All-CIAA offen sive tackle Billy Corbett, offensive guard Ozzie Smith, running back Bruce Duke, tight end Bill Dulin, tackle George Hill, end Tom Johnson, and backs Willie Bailey, Ronnie Rogers, Jimmy Haigler, Harrison Jenkins, and Luther Turner. The Golden Bulls will have plenty of experience and one of the best offensive forward walls in the institution's history. Winston Salem State University is blessed with a lot of talent. For starters, the Rams have three individuals who made the All-CIAA club returning and they in clude Curtis Phiffer, 6-1, 265-lbs. center; Eddie Gregg, 6-4, 220 lbs. defensive back; and Bennie Barbour, 6-3, 230 lbs. tackle. Veteran running backs James Davis and Cornell Davis also return along with quarterback Londell McClary. McClary com pleted 52 passes last season for 786 yards and eleven touchdowns. He will have some good targets and Coach Wal lace figures that this will be McClary’s year. "The return of our entire 1972 offensive backfield headed by McClary, Davis and Marvin Morrison is our main strength. We also have an excellent receiv ing corps and the majority of the players are in their third year. We should be alright”, Wallace said. Fayetteville State Uni versity posted a 6-3 overall mark last season and have 22 lettermen returning this season. All-American Mike Wright, 6-1, 190-lbs.- linebacker heads the list of returnees. Also in the fold are Craig Sills, quarterback; Glen Mc- Koy, running back and Moses Floyd and Marion Wigfall, reserve quarter backs. Both of the latter can fill in at other positions. The Broncos had three men to make the District 29 All-NAIA grid team last year and two return — Sylvester Ritter, 6-3, 240 lbs tackle and Mike Wright. “Our passing game should be our strongest asset with Sills pitching to Clarence Pointe, WiUiam Smith, Charles Perry and Johnny Highsmith. Ritter, Bruce Adderly, 6-1, 250-lbs guard; Jackie Simmons, 6-1, 235-lbs guard and rugged Charlie Boyd, 6-2, 245-lbs center adding to the overall offense”, McDougal said. Coach Robert Ledbetter is starting his second campaign at Norfolk State College and he is proving to be a tough competitor. “Norfolk State will be one of the youngest teams in the CIAA, but by no means will they take a back seat to anyone. Some might say that by having a team so young, exper ience will be lacking, but experience is also in the quality of a man. If youthfulness is a handi cap then quickness and agility will bless us.” “The absence of speed sters Condie Pugh and Zack Rogers will be felt on offense this year, but Tony Drakeford and Collin Arrington will give us considerable exper ience in the backfield. Molding a strong quar terback will be one of our main tasks, but we have the potential. Compli menting him will be two young men who could be the CIAAls finest re ceivers this year, Larry Stepney a veteran from last year’s squad, and transfer sudent Ron Tilhs. Defensively, we’ll be making several adjust ments until we can define the right combination for our secondary. One point in our favor is that we are way ahead of schedule. Eddie London a veteran from last year's squad could be another draft choice coming from this year’s defense which should compliment All- CIAA defensive end Leroy Jones. Roger Nance will also return for+iis second year on the squad to lead the defensive hneman along with Jones. "Bob Colbert, a product of Anacostia, Washing ton, D. C. will be back and shows a tremendous amount of talent to play opposite London”, Led better said. Virginia Union Uni versity was supposed to be a threat for the Northern Divison title last year but an upset by Elizabeth City State Uni versity put a halt to any such thoughts. Coach Bailey lost some out standing linemen and he will have a tough row to hoe. Returning to lead the Panthers are Damon Dreher, All-CIAA hne- backer of 1971, Larry Roberts, Richard Corbin and All-CIAA Lofell Will iams, 6-3, 210 lbs. running back; and quarterback Harry Sewell. Sewell will get help from Willie Patterson and Lawrence Crawford. “I feel we should be bouncing back this year with what I consider a bunch of talented indi viduals. This is the third year for a lot of our players, so they won’t be stage-frightened”, Bailey said. Ehzabeth City State University’s Tom Caldwell is always around the winner’s circle and the Vikings will be a pivotal club year. Thirty veterans are expected to greet Coach Caldwell and his staff and he is know to get the most out of his men. Running back Lindsay Riddick heads the re turnees and he should make all of the honors this season. Last year was supposed to be a rebuilding year for the Vikings and they finished 5-5. Livingstone College was plagued by inexperience last year and Coach J. D. Marshall is hoping that he can have the majority of his 54 underclassmen return. Quarterback Roy Henry heads the Bear returnees. He has some fine running backs in James Lewis and Robert Johnson to aid him. In addition George Don aldson and Leroy Jones, two fine pass catchers, return. “We have always prided ourselves on de veloping a solid defense and that is our primary goal this year”, Marshall said. “I know that we are going to win more games than we did last year and I think we have a good chance.” Hampton Institute’s Whitney Van Cleve says that he has wasted his last year rebuilding. The 1973 squad will be led by 30 returning lettermen, including defensive stars, Winfield Lewis, line backer; and Semmie Taylor, defensive back. Offensively, the Pirates will be looking to their quarterback trio of Re ginald Johns, Dwight Joyner, and Ronald Mont gomery. The 1973 Pirate team will be operating with more experience and more depth. They will have more size and speed than in previous years. The front line will average about 280 pounds. David Walters — a few of the potentially dangerous ground giants for the Pirates. Defensively and Offen sively, the Pirates are counting on tackle Ken neth Norris, guard Earl Womack, guard Donald McLaurine, and gigantic guard Elwood Griffin. Shaw University had a disappointing season last year and they lost All-American Van Green, defensive back. The Bears will be led offensively by Vergil Shamberger, run ning back. On defense, the Bears will be led by Alfred Minus, linebacker Willie Frasier, defensive The HI guard hopefully will be spearheaded by flashy tailback T. C. Logan, fullback Adolph Hawkins, and speedster back and Freddie Ryans, defensive end. Coach Jesse Clements spent most of the spring working on developing consistency and he is well pleased with the results. Saint Paul’s College did not win a game last year and is looking to the 1973 season in many ways. Coach Moses Golatt has the nucleus of 48 veterans returning from last year and the experience they gained will be an asset. The sure things about the 1973 CIAA season are the season commences in September and ends the Saturday before Thanks giving; all of the teams will show up for games and there will be some surprises.
