Philharmonic Vesper Hour December 1, 4 p.m. ®h? \ lattthfr G. I. T. December 5, 6, 7 Volume XXVII, No. 2 CLARK COLLEGE, ATLANTA, GEORGIA November, 1963 Panthers Set For Morris Brown Game Clarkites Rated Favorites To Notch Second Victory For the second consecutive year Clark is rates to de feat Morris Brown in the annual Thanksgiving battle at Herndon Stadium. This is not Coach Epps’ prediction, however, as the Panther mentor earlier listed the Wolverines as “one of the toughest opponents we’ll have this year. Morehouse and South Carolina were listed among these in a pre-sea son prediction made by Coach Epps. Last year’s game wrote finis—or at least an interrup tion—to a series of Morris Brown victories which went back to 1949, and although Clark occasionally was rated a 50-50 contender for victory, the best they could do until last year was a 3-0 loss in 1958. Now seasoned by a schedule of rough contests which has netted them but one victory—over Miles— the Wol verines are undoubtedly ready to go for broke in a do or die effort to save face to some degree with a victory over Clark. Last year it was Clark’s show all the way. The Pan thers stormed Wolverine defenses and left them bewil dered with a 34-14 loss in 1962. They will be facing largely the same team this year and will have to reckon with the nation’s third-best small college passing attack and as well as the ground-greediest group of halfbacks Clark has assembled in several years. Nearly a full Clark team will be playing in their last collegiate football game on Thanksgiving Day. The ten seniors who will go against Morris Brown in hopes of a second victory in this series are the backbone of the squad. 'They are Elmer Mixon, Robert Davis, William Cummings, Arrington, Louis Nevett, Lamond Godwin and David Reggie Williams, Alvin Sanders, Lowell Dickerson, Marvin Palmer.

Scott spoke in chapel on November 15 as Clark’s Department of Education and Psychology held its annual American Education Week observance.
