Census Countdown
In the past, census takers
have located people living in
many unusual places. They have
counted people in converted
chicken houses, tin huts, old
boxcars, caves, packing crates,
mine tunnels, barn lofts, and old
street cars. They check all-night
movie houses, park benches, hip
pie havens, along with the more
obvious hospitals^ prisons, col
leges, military bases, and moun
tain climbing expeditions. They
count all Americans in the
United States, abroad, in ships
at sea and this year, in outer
space. Census takers travel by
horseback, canoe, airplane, heli
copter, snowshoes, skis, motor
boat, rowboat, on foot or what
ever means is available and
necessary to reach every house
hold.
For the 1970 census, April X,
the census questionnaires will
be mailed to every address.
You will have the opportunity
to be your own census taker.
Just fill out the forms for your
self and your family, and then
you'll know that you really
count.

A&T State Aggies
Win In Garden Debut
By Richard E. Moore
New York City ? A&T Coach
Cal Irvin has a thing about de
fense. He feels that playing
good defense, not scoring points
is the key to the success of his
current Aggie team.
The red-hot A&T cagers gave
their veteran, coach the kind ol
defensive game he relishes last
Saturday afternoon when they
humiliated Lincoln University
(Pa.), 117-58 before 9,512 fans
in Madison Square Garden.
"Wo are spending a lot ol
time on defense," said Irvin.
"It is the thing I believe in and
the team really played beauti
ful defense today. Even Red
Auerbach (Boston Celtics gen
eral manager) liked the caliber
of defense we played."

Auerbach and half a dozen
other pro scouts watched the
Aggies rip the Lions in one ol
the finest run and shoot per
formances ever staged by A&T.
The win was the seventh
