CIAA Individual Scoring Records Are IS
Points In One Game, 4O2 Points For One
Season: SIAC'S Are so And 478!


STATISTICS have been supplied here time and again to
show that the STAG has safe margin of superiority
the ClAA in football track and basketball performance
For example, CIAA grid machine has ever whipped
a Florida eleven
Florida defeated Howard 90, Va State 1872 and
hampton 1920 in the early history of the cooru Orange
Blossom Football Classic In other CIAA encounters along
the gridron TRAIL Famcee has been tied by A. and T.
Go but boasts victories the Bulldogs $780, TO- and 1910
The Men in Orange tied by ~ c. State TT on one oc
casio but boasted previous POT victory the Eagles
Back in 1899 when Va State swept CIAA honors and
needed but Peach Blossom Classic triumph the
national Morris Brown sank the mighty Trojans 1877
Virginia Unions two-time CIAA basketball champions
hailed the Dream Team arrived in Atlanta fresh from
clean-cut win Brooklyn College in New York Clark
her opponent and the Panthers from Richmond
ginia were highly favored.
But Clark picked apart the naughty visitors 1892
On the cmderpath and in field athletics the story hasn't
been Tar different SNS files show that of
less identical to both conferences the STAG has the outright
best performance in Ii with tie existing two events
This doesn't mean that the CIAA does have class
The Middle Atlantic colleges have able football repre-
senatves yearly Morgan and Va State excellent compe
on IN basketball in Va. Union and N. c. State. and ideal
track and field ENJOYS in Hampton, Va State and Morgan
But, considered longrange performance for dec
ade two the STAG is in front in the matter achieve
ment
Currently CAA people are making nice little fuss over
62 Howard University cOegian that lad shot
30 points In single game and 402 points, all told %
games during the 1912 for average 4S points
a game.
Before 1912 the CIAA record for individual ponts in
single 81. Another Howardite James Parker
set that mark IN 1889 This performance equaed the STAG
record which withheld from 1927 194 reference being to
81 twice by Horace tty Dalton of Clark in 1927 and the
same total by the late Carlos Parker of Alabama State
But Hank De Zonie of Clark with 80 points and William
Ridley of Fisk with "a twice during 1912 ruined the old
of 81
Imagine the altitude to which eyebrows will be lifted
in the CA when word gets around that the SO point
in single game which Marshall Hill of Howard bagged is
MERELY Ia points shy of the amazing record of SO points in
contest set by Henry Ice) Holden c. State CEN
ter from Toledo Ohio
field nd tyvoa
Delaware State College in Dover recently That's the new
atime intercollegiate individual scoring record Negro
basketball
Up in the CIAA where Marshall Hill has been clicking
like cash register aggregate of 402 points %
games put the books in 1912 The people in that
circuit including this have ranked that pretty
remarkable output.
But Holden lacks eight points being exactly points
better than those figures The S. c. State sophomore jim
dandy had oped Ats points &c games the last writing
for average of 1892 points game
Sugar Ray Robinson the solid choice Norman
Ruboand know the rest of the story He stopped the
oversold kid in sanZas.
Friday night Joe Louis the pick to stop Abe Simon
quickly Inside three rounds Louis doesn't have revenge
motif anything than fanced grudge against the
Hebrew fighter But Joe doesn't play around in return
matches One could hardly figure him to be in playful
this time his allegiance to his country is involved
That alone spells seriousness to Joe who will give his
purse amounting $4,000 and to tie u Army
Louis did similar gesture for the u S. Navy recently
No wonder the admirable coored boy is the idol OF MIL
lions He's far too big to let anything like Navy or
Army discrimination rob him of his humanitarian spirit
Joe Louis white he would long since have been ac-
claimed sody backed the greatest world heavyweight
champion had Many socaed experts cling to the
old timers like Jeffes Ftzsimmons Corbett and Johnson
There is great clamoring for Dempsey.
But slowly surely the opinion is being crystalzed
like pure marble-that Louis is the greatest of them all
IT, as Negro can begin qualify for such lofty
ranking it is by the fact ITSELF perfect indication that
he's the kngpn Joe certainly has proved much behind
the hempen ropes
