tn Yankee Stadium on Sept. 11
GREENSBORO - The A&T
football team will be playing
up North next fall, but it will
be in New York City instead

by the Football Coaches Foun

member. The two teams had
previously been scheduled to
play in Philadelphia on Sept.
12.
"We are very much pleased
with this new arrangement,"
said Smith.
"We are members of this
foundation and had been asked
in the past to participate in a
game. We were able to end
our commitment on the other
game satisfactorily."
The Football Coaches
Foundation is the group which
has filled Yankee Stadium the
past two years with their pro
• motion of the Morgan State
versus Grambling game. A&T
has beaten Morgan the past
two seasons.
Both A&T and Southern
are well-known producers of
pro football talent.

ECSU Releases Eight Game Gridiron Schedule
On May 10 Coach Tom
Caldwell watched his Elizabeth
City State University grid
machine lose 15 gridders, most
ly through graduation. But,
that's not all that the veteran
coach lost, however, as Athle
tic Director Bobby Vaughan
released the 1970 football
schedule.
The Vikings, 8-1 last year,
their participation and contri- i
bution to the success of the
Dr. King Major League Base
ball Classic held earlier this
year in Los Angeles. Shown
here following the presenta
tion are, left to right, Wally
Levis Prather. Staff Reprcsen-
lost an opponent to fill out
the normally nine-game slate.
Now, beginning at home, on
Sept. 19, and ending on Nov.
14, at Salisbury, ECSU will
face only 8 teams, three at
home and five on the road.
The short schedule was
created when ECSU, attempt
ing to beef-up its schedule,
dropped two teams, but was
tative, Public Relations Depart
ment, The Coca-Cola Company;
Aaron, Cecil, Cepeda, and An
drew, Young representing the
SCLC, who presented the Me
dallions. The Medallions were
sponsored by Coca-Cola USA.

lina A&T State University to
the grid schedule for the first
time.

and athletic directors in North
Carolina, South Carolina, Vir
ginia, and Kentucky, including
some major college teams, in
an effort to complete a nine
game schedule.
Youthful NCCU
Squad Faces
Tough 70 Slate
North Carolina Central Uni
versity football coach George
Quiett aayi the 1970 aeaaon
will be "a David vs. Goliath
affair" with his predominantly
sophomore team facing an ar
ray of smkll-coUege giants.
Quiett leaves open the pos
sibility that the outcome will
be the ame for his youthful
"David" team.
The Eagles face Alcorn
A&M University of Mississippi
on September 26. The Alcorn
squad has been acclaimed for
the past two years as the top
black college football team in
the nation.
The charity match in Phila
delphia is billed as a battle of
giants, but Quiett insists that
he does not have the same
team that achieved national
recognition in 1969. "I have
only five seniors and three
Juniors returning," Quiett said.
"This will be the youngest
. team to represent N. C. Cen
tral that 1 have been associated
■ with in my seven years here."
• Two of the CLAA teams
' the Eagles will face - Virginia
! State and Shaw University
have new coaches. Quiett pre
. diets an emotional impact on
the teams. Three seasons ago,
he took over the Eagles, after
a 1-7-1 season, and led them
to a record. &
Other teams the Eagles must
face are perennially strong
Morgan State, Winston-Salem
State, rugged Maryland State,
Johnson C. Smith University
(1969 CIAA champs), and
Virginia Union (favored for
this year's CIAA champion
ship).
