When the Alabama State Hor
nets invade Houston, Texas to
take on Coach Sam 'I'aylor’'s Prai
rie View Panthers; both Coaches,
Lewis and Taylor will be confident
of winning the laurels for the
day.
Both teams have a very imres
sive record to date. with the State
Hornets having registered eight
wins out of ten tries; and the
Panthers having one defeat to mar
their record when the Tuskepee
Institute Eleven slowed down
the'r pace to the tune of 21 to 0.
To date, the Hornets have piled
up 237 points to their opponents
89. while the Panthers have regis
tered 223 points to their oppo
. nents, 27. The Pantbers have a
”rvnt running trio to offset the
yrilllant passing of Frazier and
the ball carrying contingent that
the Hornets have to offer in this
encounter. While hoth teams can
boast of strong forward wills;
Coach Taylor 12 depending on the
passing and kick'ng of Love to
keep the Hornets upset thru-out
the evening
The Panthers have vet to win a
New Year's Intersectional clash,
but the Texans are sure of ditch
ing old man Jinx this year and re
e'ster a win over the Alabama
State Worrion i
There is little to choose from in
this encounter, with both ln-:nn.\‘
having what we might call an
eual chance of walking off with
the honors for the day, Much will,
depend upon the smarter qum't«-r-i
back who wll manouver his signals
to the best effect. when the time
comes to produce a score,
The pame will be played in
Houston, Texas and is scheduled
to be one of the best games that)
the Fans have witnessed in an In

Coach Cleve Abbott's Tigers of |
Tu-kegee Institute closed the'r
1951 football season with a (lv-|
cisive 19 to 0 vietory over the Lin-!
coln Lions of Lincoln University|
of Pennsylvania, j
The Tigers shot the work to Hw:
Lincolnites which proved to be
too much pressure. The clever,
manuvering of quarterback Mobh
ley’s plays bew'ldered the Lincoln
outfit and there was nothing in
store but victory for Tuskegee.!
Only the brilliant kicking of the
Quaker City Lads saved the team
from be'ng routed.
B. McKinney, Sivley, Mc¢ Car
thv and King were sharine in the
honors for the Tuskegee Tigers
Alabama State Hornets
The Alabama State Hornets will
invade Texas New Years Day to
mix wth Sam Tavlors Praivie
View Panthers. The Panthers are
.‘thu Champions of the Southwest
ind have only one defeat to mar
their 1931 record which was ad
ministered by the Tuskegee Insti
tute Tigers, 21 to 0.
The State Hornets have also suf
fered defeat at the hands of Cleve
Abbott’'s Tigers, 82 to 7. Still, if
vou believe in comparative scores
vou have something to shoot at;
however, the Hornets have an
even chance of registering a win
over the Panthers, |
Both teams have played °upm'l)‘
football this season. with the
'Bama State Warr'ors suffering
two defeats from the hands of
the Wilberforce Eleven of Ohio
and the Tuskegee Tigers, ‘
Since comparative scores have
all gone astray this scason, let us)
look at the offensive and defen
sive strength of the two teams. To
date. the Panther have piled up
223 po'nts to their opponents 27;
while the Hornets have scored 237
points to their opponents Ri. |
You can bet your boots that the
game will not be a walk-awav for
either side. Still. we can call the
meeting on New Years Day a toss
up. with the game go'ng to the
a team petting the breaks at the out
6’5&. Still. there's nohing certain
in this life - . . nothing certa‘n but
an occasional depression and
death: so let's wait and see the
outcome, and don't be taken by
surprise,

SCORE IS 19 TO 0

rAbb('H's Tigers hammered a n d
hammered and then hammered
'some more down h e r e in this
pretty hollow, sunk bheneath a verit
able mountain range of pines, on
this beautiful Christmas Day. And
Tuskegee closed its 1931 foothall
season with a decisive 19 to 0 inter
sectional victory ovr the Lincoln
University team of Pennsylvania.
Cliff to a fast start Tuskoegee
swept within the shadows of l.in
coln's goal on five plays, but lost
the ball on downs. Three more
\times before the first period closed
‘lh(' Tigers were inside the Penn
sylvania 10-yard line but failed.
The quarter found them 10 yard:
away, a bit weary but mucn the
Iwisvr for their offensive efforts
against a leam that appeared t0
ihu\'v them outweighed by several
pounds to the man.
Lincoln was content to let Tu
kegee “shoot the works” early but
Tuskegee banged across for a touch
down oa the first play that opened
the second period and gained
momentum as the game wore on
‘and the heavy visitors became dis
.m'g:mize-d and weary in the fuce of
the consistent onrush. Especially |
outstanding was the mighty driv
ing of McCarthy. Silvey and the
other Tuskepgee backs.
Tuskegee's first score was made
‘h_v Fullback King who hit inside of
his own right tackle for 10 yards
':md not a lLincoln man touched
ihim. McCarthy stepped back and
cooley kicked the extra point from
placement.
With this advantage Tuskegee
began to battle all the harder and '
Quarterback Mobley mixed his |
plays to such an extent that the
bewildered Easterners were push
[vd back with comparative ease
Toxeept for some brilliant kicking, |
Lincoln would have been routed
The battle see-sawed after the
initinl score until late in the per
iod when Tuskegee staged a sen
sational 60-yard march without re
linquishing the leather. Starting
(nn(th(,-ir own 40-yard line, the Ti
gets knifed the tackles and split
the guards for more than half the
'distance of the field in éight plays
| The drive culminated in u touch
ldown when Silvey stepped 10
yards through the wide gape made
'by BB. Mc Kinney, the outstanding
lineman on the field and a real
candidate for All- American hon
ors among colored football playvers
McKinney paved the way for both
‘touchdowns over his side of the
'line and his rushing of the kickers
and passers and sensational tack
ling made him stand out through
out the contest. MceCarthy was the
big noise in the sustained 60- yard
touchdown drive.
I Tuskegee pulled one o f the
‘cleverest plays the writer ever saw
‘when in the third period a fake
1 kick was transformed into a beau
tiful e n d around play, which
caught the opposition unawares
The speed and deception of the
perfectly-executed play resulted in
a long gain, only to be called back
Iwheu Tuskegee was guilty of un
|necessary roughness.
Confidence abounded in the Tus
kegee camp after Lincoln’s vaunt
led line had been torn to shreds.
iTuskegee was doped to have a
‘hard fight and was expected to try
the air for all of its gains. The first
{period punching they gave the lin
tv()ln players, convinced the Tigers
‘they could go on straight football.
i The third score was the result of
{a pretty 60-yard dash by Smith,
iright end. who intercepted a Lin
‘uln pass late in the fourth period
{Smith took the toss on the run,
lzig-zagged his way clear of the
[Lincoln left half and then picked
(his way neatly through the other
backs. Both attempts to add the
lextra points after touchdowns [utl
led. Both teams staged a wild acvial
jattack late in the game and honors
lwere about even for having passes
| intercepted.
| In the first half. Tuskegee gain
jed 187 yards against 56 for Lin
|coln and made a grand total of 260
vards and 18 first downs against
| Lincolns total of 85 and ceven
(first downs.
