Robertson has been scoring
about one/fourth of the Roy

time had come for him to strike.
The Big O was the last of the
major NBA stars to come to

scoring machines last season.

Tenn. State Mi

BY COLLIE NICHOLSON
NASHVILLE - Quarterback
James Harris was architect and
executioner last Saturday night
as Grambling college perform
ed with aplomb in clutch situ
ations to deflate Tennessee
State A&I University 26-24, in
an intersectional game.
Harris dulled Tennessee’s
claws with three .touchdowns
passes, loosened the enemy
secondary to set up another
score, and relegated all-
American Eldridge Dickey to
relative anonymity with the pro
lific passing performance.
Operating behind a massive
and mobile line, the 203-pound
junior fairly sizzled asGramb
lirig balanced slashing running
and pin-point passing in a man
ner that left the impression
that it will be difficult to cope
with.
Harris, who threw for 264
yards, swung the game in
Grambling’s favor with 26 and
28-yard scoring strikes to Rob
ert Atkins, before concluding
with a 25-yard bomb to Glenn
Alexander.
Esses Johnson boomed over
tor the other marker on a two!
yard slant.
Harris engineered two drives
of 75 and 80 yards in a race
with the clock as the Tigers
scored with 57 second remain
ing in the first half. He then
rambled the length of the field
to douse all Tennessee’s hopes
in the final two minutes of
Play. ■ j
Coleman Zeno made a leap
ing catch for a 50-yard ad
vance In the finale, two plays
before Alexander responded
with the winning reception in
the end zone.
Showing his usual affinity for
the goal, Dickey maneuvered
Tennessee to a pair of first
half scores with Wayne Reese
booming over for both markers
Roy McNeese booted a 40-
yard field goal, and Dickey
tallied the last touchdown on
a two-yard i un.
Foll o wln g the contest
Grambling fans reflected glory,
while their counterparts were
utterly sunk by the disaster.

vious outings, held an undefeat
ed Virginia State College team
to a 234 yards in a 7-7 tie
football game Saturday on
NCC’s O’Kelly Field.
Virginia State’s Trojans had
averaged 457 yards in their two
previous games, a 53-6 win over
Howard University and a 38-
12 defeat of Shaw University.
The Eagles came close to
duplicating last year’s game,
which was their victory after
three straight losses.
Virginia State drew first
blood in Saturday’s game, af
ter a scoreless first quarter,
Quarterback Lawrence Sugg set
the score up with a 59-yard
rur. from the Trojans’ 20-yard
line to NCC’s 21. The Peters
burg, Va., team moved the ball
to the three in five downs, and
fullback Robert Wingo drove
across for the score.
A conversion kick by Harry
Short made the score 7-0 for
Virginia State.
North Carolina put together
a 65-yard touchdown drive late
in the second quarter. The drive
included an 18-inch run by full
back Roger Foust and a 16-yard
dash by quarterback Herman
Matthews.
Mitthews threw a perfect
pass to end Julian Martin in the
end zone, but officials cancel
ed the pass with an illegal pro
cedure call.
After a series of penalties,
NCC started over from the 41-
yard line. Matthews ran 15
yards but threw the ball as he
tackled for an illegal for
ward pass call. Back on the
30-yard line, Matthew ran six
yards to the 24, then passed
to Martin for 18 yards. Mat
thews was thrown at the 15
yard line on the next play, but
the Eagles moved back to the
7 1/2 yard line on a penalty
against Virginia State.
End Julian Leak snagged a
Matthews pass on the one-yard
line, and Foust plunged over
for the score.
Virgil Alston tied the score
for the Eagles with his extra
point kick.
NCC kept the Trojans busy
in the second half with the help
of 49 and 48 yard punts by
Thurman Jones, forcing the
Virginia State men to start
two key series of plays on their
own one yard line.
In the second half. Coach Wil
liam Lawson’s Trojans got no
closer to a score than North
Carolina College’s 35-line.
The Eagles intercepted three
passes by Sugg and one by Tro
jan quarterback Joseph C ritten
don. Three of the interceptions
were by speedy defensive back
Ronald Upperman. Linebacker
and captain William Stanton ac
counted for the fourth Eagle in
terception.
Virginia State earned seven
first down, the Eagles 8. The
Trojans rushed for 172 yards
