Rattlers Open Home Season Saturday

TALLAHASSEE - The Flori-
da A and M College Rattlers are
slated to play their first game of
the season in Bragg stadium Sat-
urday afternoon, October IL
when they play host to the in
vading Ft. Valley State College
Wildcats of Ft. Valley, Ga.
The local eleven romped to a
48-O win over the Wildcats on
their home field last year for
their third win of the 81 cam
paign. The victory was sparked by
the clever Signal-calling of Quar-
terback Akin "Mr. Cool" Hep
burn, and the running of Oscar
Norman and Jasper Saunders.
The latter two players have de-
parted, however, "Mr. Cool" will
be around to try and improve his
performance against the Wild
cats last year which included two
touchdown heaveS, one to Norman
and another to Willie "The Train"
Irwin, Famcee's All-American
end candidate.
The Rattlers opened the season
with a Alb victory over the
Texas College Steers with Hep
burns great throwing arm
sparkling the attack which saw
the Miami senior completing 10
Of 13 attempted passes as he
tossed for one I'D and setup two
more via his accurate flinging.
"The Train caught one of his
touchdown passes and was in the
forefront of those two setup by
Hepburn's passing arm.
Ft. Valley won its first game
of the season by taking a 1910
verdict over the Clark College
Panthers of Atlanta. The Dick
Craig-coacfed machine rode to
victory on the smart signal call
ing and passing arm of Bennie
Foster, a sophomore quarterback
from Atlanta.
Famcee beat Benedict College

CHALLENGES MORRIS BROWN
With the season still young and
the teams unpredictable, the
Huddle will go out on limb once
more in predictions. The record
for games through Sept. q is II
right, 5 wrong, and 2 ties for an
average of .773 without ties and
$50 with ties.
Top game of this weekend pits
Bethune Cookman and Morris
Brown. The Purple Wolverines
will be playing following their
showdown with Maryland State,
while Bethune Goodman has been
resting. Nevertheless, Morris
Brown appears to have too many
big guns for the team from Fla.
Otherwise there are no truly
crucial games on the calendar for
the weekend. The top teams have
scheduled some "easy" opponents
as follows:
AIT should take care of
Hampton; Florida A&M should
have breather with Ft. Valley;
Alcorn should have a homecom-
ing festival with Mississippi In
dustrial; Maryland State should
romp over Delaware State, and
Lincoln (Mo.) should easily dis
pose of Kentucky State.
Central State and West Vir-

Ohio eleven rating a slight nod
over the Yellow Jackets. Lincoln

appears to be one of Morgan's
weaker teams.
