With the score deadlocked, 79-
all, as rcijulation time ended.
Tommy Monteirio Ram center
•■Jtepped up to the foul line with
'a one and one situation and sank
both of them. The first was
' enough.
Ironically it was the same
Monteirio who turned a similar
fri5k“*on the same floor in the
.Winston win last year over the
lAgries, the defeat which knocked
'A and T out of the OAA cham-
' field goal'r in that scrap as the
'buzzer went off.
The Aggies had possession of
the ball with 53 seconds as the
eame was tied and chose to go for
the final shot. Head coach Cal
Irvin had called timeout to plan
>1he winning play Jerry Powell,
ftlt'iiry “Hank” Marshall and Herb
Gray consumed 40 of those crucial
'seconds in passes in the outer
icourt. Gray took the pass with
five seconds left drove in for' a
l^yup, which fell harmlessly off
ihe rim. On the play, he was cited
uiih a charging foul as the buzzer
blasted. j
A and T, again dominated the
play in the fir^' b^f a*d'ha4'jone
;ftead by as mfcbh as ifiiip': j^pi^s,
S7-28, the big^gt' edgfe In'*^ the
pame with thrfe mihutes left in
the first perirtd. By intermission
lime, (he Winston club had whit
tled that lead to 40-37.
W'inston came storming back in
the second half and scored three
irtraight field goals before a cold
bunch of Aggies could get started.
tVom then on, A and T was chief
ly in the catchup role. In the fate
ful sccond half the score was tied
•ix times, at 45-all, 58-all, 67-all,
76-alI, 78-all and that crucial, 79-
all deadlock.
Cleo Hill, the Winston-scoring
sensation, with 24-points led the
■corin? for both teams. Three
other Rams hit in double figures
including; Willie Curry, 13, Rich
ard Glover, 16 and Monteirio with
11.
Wylie Briggs, a freshman for
ward, a substitute for big Bob Kel
ler, sidelined with a leg injury,
led Aggie scoring with 14-points.
Other Aggies hitting in double fi
gures included: Walt Holtzclaw,
with 13 and Marshall and Gray
with 11-each.
The loss -left A and T with a
6-2 average, while the win gave
the Rams a 6-1 season's record.

Prospects of th-a entry in the
Carolina league of a team in-

to the top echelons of manage
ment appeared dim.
Directors of the league, in a
neeUng in Durham Sunday, heard
I proposal froin a Danville Ne-
buatneu;man to sponsor a
team- for the league but took no
action on .it.'
The proppsal came from James
Peter«, undertaker in Danville.
At the " same time, the league
shunted aside applications' from
4 i,g h Point-Thomasville and
Lyftchburg, Va.
For all practical purposes, the
league’s player personnel has been
integrated for some, years now.
Major league teams with af
filiations in the Carolina l-eague
began assigning Negro player's to
their clubs in the mid fifties, and
;he practice has continued.
However, thete is no instance of
an integrated management among
the teaAis oif the league.
the Carolina L'sague has teams
in Durham, Raleigh, Greensboro,
Winston-Salem, Burlington and
Wilson. j
Danville has been a member qf

In a statement issued this week,
‘krowledge of what to do in ah
emergency is a necessity for rtiost
pr-oole in atheletics today.
•‘Although we have been rela
tively fortunate in North Carolina
insofai* as the number of fatal in
juries occuring during athletic
contests and practices, the high
degree of organization, tWe in
creasing complexity and the sheer
speed of today’s athletic games
make the possibility of injury
greater.
•‘Certainly anyone connected
w.'th athletics should know what
to do when injuries occur.
"A great deal of the fnisery and
suffering endured by athletes and
the time^and money lost by insti
tutions could be recovered if
there were enough people who
kpow how to act in emergency
situations.”
“The clinic hopes to be able to
prepare these people to act quick
ly and intelligently when injuries
occur.”

DOVER, Del. — The Delaware
State Hornets^ will present a re
juvenated cage squad for the re
mainder of the season.
Coach Bennie J. George is now
going through the process of re
vamping the style of play of his

system that will permit each play
er to use his own individual style
of play while still contributing to
the team effort.
On January 12, DSC trounced
Philadelphia Textile Institute 106-
