The Chavis Heights Brav es were scheduled to play the Raleigh Womens All-Stars, but the game never took place as the Braves, who has suffered three consecutive losses to the All-Stars previously, didn’t show up. The Jeffreys Grove Blue Demons did show up to face the All-Stars, but they now may be having second thoughts about the contest which they lost, 16-3, Merritt got the win for the All-Stars as she struck out one, walked none, and allow ed only 12 hits. Curtis took the loss for the Blue Demons, but looked good at the plate, col lecting two hits in three trips. Jackson led all the Stars’ hit ters with a 3-4 performance that included two singles and a double. Merritt homeredfor the All-Stars with two on. That’s the story for Sum mer “ ’7O”.

Department of Housing and Urban Development expects that site-value ratios will continue to rise in coming years--in creasing at an average rate of 2 percent per year to about 25 percent by 1978. ECSU Vikings Begin Drills ELIZABETH CITY-Facing a tremendous rebuilding job this year, with only 14 lettermen returning, Coach Tom Caldwell greeted 63 gridders to the Elizabeth City State University Vikings’ camp. Having recruit ed 36 freshmen players, the highest single total ever, Cald well begin immediately getting a good look at an assortment of rookie talent than can possibly be used to patch holes in the de fensive and offensive align ments. Knowing that ECSU’s top na tional defensive rating last year will be seriously challenged. Coach Caldwell worked all week trying to get the running game going to possibly offset that pro spect. The return of backs O. J, Reynolds, Rene Laughing house, and John Thompson, HI, plus the arrival of a fleet to rookie backs were encouraging signs. Heading the list of returnees were two big Pugh-type tackles, Ronald Leigh and Ronald Darden, both 6-3, 240 lb. seni ors who helped to limit the op position to a meager 48,3 rush ging yards per game last year, as the' Vikings posted their sec ond consecutive 8-1-0 cam paign. As the Vikings began prep aration for their Sept. 19th. home opener against Virginia State College,, Coach Caldwell has added William House and Samuel T. Holmes to the ECSU coaching staff. House will aid in rebuilding the defensive line, while Holmes directs the quar terbacks.

Hampton Insti tute’s homecoming game with Tuskegee Institute, Johnson re ceived a cut over his right eye. Several plays and eight stitches later Robert T. Johnson made touchdown catches of 39 and 11 yards that brought the Hampton fans to their feet in sheer dis belief. His efforts were not enough, however, as the Pirates lost, 20-12. “The whole time I was being treated by the doctor all I could New ¥SC Coach Lovett is Hoping For A .500 Season PETERSBURG - Virginia State College's Trojan football team, hoping to Improve dra matically over last year’s 3- 5-1 mark, beings the 1970 foot ball campaign on Sept. 19 with a new coach and a new offense to go with the new decade. The Trojans open on the road at Elizabeth City, a team VSC defeated, 2-0, in the fourth quarter last year to knock the Vikings (undefeated the rest of the way) out of the CIA A Con ference title. Despite losing two key sen iors in his defensive unit in the pro draft last winter, new head coach Walt Lovett, who replac ed W. W. Lawson who returned to teaching at VSC, is optim istic about at least a .500 sea son. “A .500 season would be wel comed,” Lovett said after a recent practice, “in light of the losses from last year’s squad. But the sophomores never re act as expected, so the season could be quite exciting.” Coach Lovett, who just com pleted his Ph. D. at Indiana University, said he thought the first two games, both road con test, would be crucial. State’s second opponent is Maryland State, who VSC defeated 24-13 THE CAROLINIAN RALEIGH, N. C., SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 12. 1970 think of was getting back In there (the game)”, says John son who runs the 40-yard dash In 4,8 seconds. “Johnson Is a heck of a ball player,” praises Pirates Coach Van Cleve who is in his second year at H. 1. “A lot of players would have called it quits for the day, but Johnson has a lot of pride. He knew we needed him.” It is this kind of pride that Van Cleve will try to instill in his young Pirates team. There are only ten veterans on the team. last year. Probably the biggest change Lovett instituted in the VSC spring game was the new South ern Cal-type offense. Lovett has said tie will rely more on the sprint-out game and not run so many drop-back pocket pass es as in the past. But, obivous ly, the new offense puts differ ent demands on the VSC play ers and coaches to make the adjustment swiftly and success fully. Lovett places greatest stress on the fullback position, which he calls critical to the new of fense. Slated to start at full back is James “Truck!’ Mor rison, a 5-U, 210-lb. junior line-buster from Portsmouth, Va., who is expected to be the Trojans game-breaking run ner. Morrison is shifty, quick and despises to be tackled. * * * PREDICTS SHIFT IN LOANS In the future, there will be a continued shifting away from loans on one- to four - family homes toward loans on multi family residential and nonresl dential properties, predicts the U. S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. Johnson will be called upon to help boost Pirate morale al though he is mainly a “doer” aiyi not a “sayer”. His stat istics bear this out. As a fresh man, the 185-pounder caught 21 passes for 503 yards and 3 touchdowns. Despite double and triple coverage the following year he snagged 37 passes for 450 yards and 3 touchdowns. Now, as a junior, Johnson hopes that the team will pull a few surprises and that he will be selected to the all conference team. Noting the trend in the Central Intercollegiate Athletic As sociation, Johnson realizes that the latter is no easy feat. “If you don't make ail conference by the time you're a junior it’s pretty tough because they tend to pick the same players year after year despite what another player lias done that particular year”, says Johnson.
