soon ί Deal BY BILL .IOMNSON ...... va ΜΛ/Ι»*« " commissioners if they are left with the promot ion of the Gold Bowl Football Classic with second place teams. The question here, then, is would SCSC and WSSU place prestige above their invested - interest in their own conference? If the answer is "yes," we believe they should be dealt with swiftly and severely. The time has come when blacks should place high values in the participation of something they can call their own. Certainly, there is no better way to build interest and prestige in the two conferences than to have their respective champions meeting in the glamorized atmos phere of the Gold Bowl, which has enjoyed steady growth in its short history. The proposed meeting of the Rams and the Bulldogs on Saturday, December 2 is an event - that the majority of the fans in the area have . been eagerly waiting for. The game is a "natural," one that would excite football fans, both black and white, throughout the vast influence area of both conferences. The second point to consider is "would Winston-Salem or South Carolina Slate-receive - more prestige by playing In another bowl? Wp think not!. HITTING THE HIGH SPOTS... A couple of surprises cropped up in the first release of the NBA basketball statistics. Mar ques Johnson of Milwaukee is leading the individual scorers with a whopping 32.2 average and Moses Malone of Houston leads Kareem Adbul Jabbar in the vital rebounding category. : First reports of the annual football clash between North Carolina A&T and North Carolina Central are that the bitter rivals will clash on Thanksgiving Day. The game is scheduled for Saturday.. November 18, 1:30 p.m. in Durham '* " Look for John Lucas to lead the L.A. Lakers back to the forefront of the NBA Pacific Division. : Had you thought of the fact that the modern girl's ambition is just what her mother's was?...To make some man a good husband! WBTV has again scheduled the popular Carolina Basketball Classic for early December. Eight top college division basketball teams, including Johnson C. Smith and Livingstone, and Barber-Scotia, will battle in Wheeler Athletic Center on the Balmont Abbey College Campus. Clarance "Bighouse" Gaines, who has earned Just about every recognition imaginable will be 'i inducted into the North Carolina Sports Hall Fame, November 2. Livingstone's homecoming activities inviting. Not only will you witness a good footbiUl contest between Che Blue Bears ana Shaw, you'd enjoy the performances of two of the better bands in the land...And those gals in the most revealing uniforms fronting the Shaw Band...WOW! A good day, Saturday afternoon will send Winston-Salem's great running back Timmy Newsome soaring over the 1,500-yards gained rushing mark. It should be a modern record for CIAA ball carriers. We fared so badly with our bold predictions last week, that the ole crystal ball refuses to lite up this time around. Look for Bethune-Cookman to stomp Delaware State and Southern will run wild against Howard. Virginia Union will be bounce bade against Morgan State, S.C. State will defeat UMES. Fayetteville State will slip past Bowie State and Hampton will outscore St. Paul's. Livingstone should have no trouble in beating Shaw. Norfolk State will edge Virginia State. --y " -■ * Here November 11 Idle Bulls Will Return To Action Against Favetteville bv Chase Vance Post Sports Writer The Johnson C. Smith Uni versity Golden Bulls have an open date this week. They resume action on November 11 when Fayetteville State comes to town. Remaining games include Virginia State in Petersburg on Nov. 18 and North Carolina Central in Dur ham on Nov. 25. Coach Wylie Harris is proud of the way his Bulls have reacted to his system. "Our morale has really im proved," he said. "The kids have adjusted well. We played a decent game at Winston-Sal em." What does a coach do when he has a week off? Does he rest? Take a vacation? Or sit around and worry about the next game. "1 have got so much to do," said Harris "The biggest time is recruiting kids for my sys tem. We have to review films on top proepects We have already sent out over 3,000 letters to prospects across the county ._Now we will send out letters fôAlumni in key areas to see if they can help us in our recruiting effort " "As soon as we get the information back," we can start deciding who to recruit to fill our need," he said. Although most of the recrui ting is being spread through out the nation, Harris says that there is plenty of talent in his own backyard.

Special mention has to be Tiade for Assistant Coach Jharles Griffin, the Rams defensive coordinator, who nas done an outstanding job :oaching.

The defense îeld the Golden Bulls and did lot give up any 1st dow η to the lulls That's teamwork! Johnson C. Smith University Golden Bulls, a young and improving team played well aga.nst Winston-Salem, the number 1 team in the confer ence and in the CIAA Division II Sophomore, quarterback and punter Cal Gill, a very versatile and dedicated leader of the Bulls offensive unit did an exceptional job in leading his team, even in a losing effort.

Corneroack, Kicky Ray. a 60". 180 lbs senior from Waynesboro, Va blocked a Bowie punt and recovered it in the end zone for a touchdown. He also knocked down another pass. HERE WE GO AGAIN This reporter has been informed via unoffical sources, that South Carolina State and Winston Salem State have indicated they will not participate in the annual Gold Bowl Football Classic in Richmond, Va. if they receive bids to another post-season bowl. In our opinion, that would be tragic. The move would reduce the Classic, which is sponsored . jointly by the Central Intercollegiate Athletic _Association and the Mid-Eastern Athletic Confe rence, to a second class event...as presently is the case with the majority of the programs under the promotion of blacks. Area fans, who have supported both conferen ces down through the years, deserve better. Commissioner Bob Moorman, who has worked so hard and so effectively in developing the CIAA into a top rated league, deserves better^ ; Commissioner Kenneth Free, who has assumed the tremendous responsibilities of developing the ME AC, deserves better.
