TELLING IT LIKE ITREAL1A IS.
Many wise words are spoken in jest but the> can't
compare with the number of foolish words spoken in
earnest.
Local golfers will tee up for the Par Buster's annual
<% 4-Ball Tournament here this weekend. As in the past,
the popular organization will stage their 30-hole event at
Sunset Hills Golf Course, starting Saturda\ morning.

“It s a bit too early to predict what will happen.” John
Love, who is the co-coordinator of the event, said Mon
day afternoon. Love said he expects to have a strong
field that will provide close com[M>tition in each flight.
ABOUT OTHER THINGS.
North Carolina A<ST State has played before .30.854
spectators at home and 37.542 on the road this season to
average 13,679 paying fans |>er game. S.C. State, the
team you d think would be leading the pack in atten
dance, is a distant fifth in the MEAC with an average of
only 6,307 spectators |>er outing.
It's official now. th> I ' ’ nniial Gold Bowl will be
played Saturday, December I. at Richmond's City
Stadium. Kickoff is 1:30. The promotion matches the
top football team in the MEAC against the Cl A A cham
pions each year. Tickets can be purchased at all member
institutions of both conferences and both conference of
fices.
Has it occurred to you that no one has bothered to in
form the public, at least at this writing, just who
Johnson C. Smith University will be playing in Mexico
Saturday afternoon?
There are two undefeated teams in the Central Inter
collegiate Athletic Association. .Norfolk State, which has
a tie with Winston-Salem State on its otherwise perfect
slate and Virginia Union has not tasted the bitterness of
losing. One will bite the dust Saturday afternoon
however. They tangle in what is publicized as the
Cl A A Game of the Week in Hiehmond's City
Stadium, starting at 12:50 o’clock. It should be a hum
dinger!
ABC will televise the game regionally through lower
Virginia and upper North Carolina.
"They (Virginia Union) have a real fine team." of
fered a spokesman from Norfolk State Tuesday after
noon. “As a matter of fact, this is the l>est team W illiard
triumphs uuhe loop and five against all comers. Nor
folk, meanwhile, has gone unscratched through five en
counters.
The match-up reads like it was authored by
Hollywood script writer. The Panthers lead the league in
rushing offense, total offense, scoring offense and
rushing defense. Norfolk State is setting the pace in
passing offense, total defense and passing defense. That
brings us to the old cliche of "can a good offensive team
be stopped by a strong defensive outfit?"
How’s this for comparison7 Virginia Union has allow
ed a mere 30.1 yards rushing |>er game this year. Norfolk
has yielded only 54.2. The opponents have averaged 123
yards passing against the tough Spartan defense and a
mere 154 throwing against the Panthers. Virginia Union
is moving the pigskin at a 307-yard-per-game clip while
Norfolk State has averager! 247 yards a game in total of
fense.
Alfred Wring, who has come in for more than his
share of criticism this season, was named "CIAA’s
Defensive Lineman of the Week" for his brilliant perfor
mance against S.C. State here two weeks ago. W hat did
he do? The 6-foot-4. 260-pound senior from Delray
Beach, Fla. made 4 solo tackles, 5 assists, sacked the
quarterback once, broke up a pass anil blocked an extra
point attempts.
There’# an old saying that “he who skates on thin ice
will sooner or later confront disaster." Morgan State.
North Carolina Central and UMKS upset my prediction
last week, lowering my ratings to 33 right and four
wrong through the first 38 contests this season. We also
have a tie on the slate.
This week lor want of something better to do. we re
taking another trip out on the thin ice with the following
picks. Fayetteville will continue on the comeback trail
with an impressive win over Livingstone. Virginia State
will stay in the thick of the CfAA championship race
with a triumph over Hampton and Liberty Baptist will
whip St. Paul's as has everyone else. Winston-Salem will
clout Central State, with or without Kermit Bount. who
is ailing. Bowie State will defeat the university of D.C.
and Morgan State will strengthen its hold on first place
in the MKAC race with a decision over Delaware State.
Howard will embarrass AAT and N.C. Central will
down IIMES. Johnson C. Smith will lose to whoever
they face in Mexico City and Klizaheth City will take
good care of N.Y. Tech. Virginia L'nion will continue to
dominate its series with Norfolk State. The Panthers
have won 11 of the first 22 meetings while the Spartans
were winning 10 and one game ended in a deadlock.
The home of Dick Allen, former star baseball player,
waa destroyed by fire last week. He was Philadelphia's
. rookie of the year in 1064 and the American league's
"Most Valuable" player in 1072.

Even Superman May Shun Fast

menswear for fall ’7') can

The broad-shouldered.
slim-hip[*ed film hero of the
l*J40s and .’>0s has cast a
shadow on this fashion as
menswear manufacturers
have created a silhouette
reminiscent of that famous
crime fighter’s physique.
"The silhouette for fall has
been slimmed down and
shaped up," said Burton B.
Ruby, president of Jaymar
Ruby. the nation's largest
manufacturer of quulity
men's slacks and a trendset

novative pocket styles.
Double-breasted coats with
notched and peak lapels will
be back. Slacks carry this
feeling of relaxed sophistica
tion to perfection with neat
pleats and narrowed
waistbands.
"The dominant leg
dimensions for fall will be
20-inch knee and bottom.”
Ruby said. “But, of course,
some flares also will be
shown. Pocket treatment
will he understated. The
silhouette will give men a
cleaner, more elegant look."
Sophistication also will be
found in colors and fabrics
for fall '79. Rich but subdued
wine, rust, pewter, earthy
browns and royal navy are
just some of the hues emerg
ing as important for fall.
Black will be paired with
other somber colors to
achieve an iridescent effect.
But the sleek,
sophisticated look doesn’t
mean a season of quiet col
ors. I he slice of nostalgia for
fall also contains a little
whimsy — found particular
ly in bold accent colors. Even
Superman sported a touch of
chic with a lipstick red "S"
emblazoned across his chest.
"This season more than
ever, men will find fashion in
the fabrics." Ruby said.
"The focus is on those that
have depth you can see »nrt
feel ... what we call ta< t.lo
fabrics."
Rich worsted wools and
brushed wcxtl blends as wcil
as plush velvets and dnncg.d

originated in the country,
now express an urban quali
