Two hundred and more mlses UP
in VOausia county, coach Bnnky
Matthews Wildcats OF BeInnne
college are rounding into form for
what they hope will be the catch
of the season, when they meet the
Florida A & M college Rattlers In
their homecoming game on Sat
.urday.
To date the Bethune-Cookman-
ties have rolled up 1877 points in
three games that include e6
against Edward Waters College,
.58 against Florida Normal college
and Is against Benedict college
The first two teams weren't able
to score against the Wildcats de-
Tense but the latter game was a
Is to Is tie.
Farther to the northwest in the
clay hills of Tallahassee, the Jake
Gaither-coached boys have been
rolling along in grand style and
are giving the outward appear
ance that the Bethune-C Goodman
clash is just another listing on
their 1850 grid menu. Backing
this attitude with cold statistics it
can be pointed out that the orange
and green clad boys from the
state capital have amaSsed 1913
points against 80 from the oppo-
Sltlon in four clashes. The score
card registering all wins. in
cludes SO to 6 against Texas COL
college; 81 to Is against Fl. VAL
!ege; 20 to IS against Benedict
ley; 20 to 0 against Morris Brown
and IA to 8 against A & T.
Ihree years ago these two lead
ing Florida colleges met on the
gr1diron and the Famceeans won
the game 6 to 0 on the victors'
nome ground; but since that time
the two teams have not been able
to come to terms. Resentment and
cries of 'unsportmanship' have
been hurled around the entire
Florida peninsular. The press has
carried letters of indignation from
alumni associations and the sports
loving public of Florida for more
than two years.
Most of the accusing fingers for
not matching the teams have been
pointed at the officials at the Tai
1ahasSee institution. They say the
FamceeanS claim they have all to
lose and nothing to gain in a
contest with the Volusia county
Wndacts, considering their an
nual Orange Blossom Classic IN
tne famous Miami Orange Bowl
each December, where they must
meet a first-clasS, nationally
known team.
However the Bethune-Cookman
scholars reason that football is
iootoall and the Florida football
ioVing fans will journey any,
Wnere at any time in the state to
see a good game between two
good teams.
Now all these arguments are in
the past for this year the two COL
reyes have smoked the football
pipe OF peace" and have nut
Lnelr houses in order. They meet
Saturday, October % in WEIGH
memorial stadium in Daytona
Beach as guests of Bethune-Cook-
man college.
Sensing this tense situation.
football followers of the states
Detter played games have marked
this clash a must" on their
games to attend memorandum.
From the southeastern tip of the
state that include Key West, MI
ann, TT. Lauderdale and West
RAIN Beach, where there is an
equally strong B-CC and Famcee
rooters will come heavy follow
ing to see the two teams battle
Tor gridiron supremacy. It's sure
70 be great day for Florida foot
ball fans.

Admiral Forrest P. Sherman,

the Navy has not lost a single one

heavy assaults against communist
positions in the Korean war.
The Admiral said the Nays air
arm had seen heavy action, with
both carrier and patrol planes OPP
Grating in the Korean and Formo-

been two planes, one which made
