TODA Y'S GAME/by Roosevelt Wilson

FAMU's GanGreen Holds Key to VictoryThe Rattlers' stubborn defense has acquired a catchy nickname, the "GanGreen, "and it will

be called upon tonight to infect Alabama state while the offense tries to put it all together.

Football games between FloridaA&M University and Alabama StateUniversity have become more like warsthan games. The Rattlers and Hornetsover the past few years have gone aftereach other with all the lethal vengancetheir names suggest.

This was supposed to bejust anothergame but after the Rattlers lost mis-erably 6-0 last week to a team theyshould have beaten badly, they arelooking to take it out on the Hornets.

The only thing wrong with that isAlabama State. The Hornets aren'tabout to roll over and play dead foranybody. They lost their opener to TroyState in a squeaker, but bounced backto roll over three opponents in a rowand come into tonight's gamesmoking,looking to keep that three-game win-ning streak alive.

It long has been a tradition at FloridaA&M after a loss, particularly after aloss that never should have been, tomake the next opponent pay for it. Thusthe cry: Somebody's got to pay!

Will Alabama State be the one to pay,or will the Rattlers have to postponegetting their revenge until next week?

Victory is not automatic any more forthe Rattlers. Most of the opponents ontheir schedule have shored up theirfootball programs and can play arespectable game against anybody,and most give the Rattlers more thanthey want to handle.

Alabama State is no exception. TheHornets are a solid and explosive foot-ball team that could very well send theRattler supporters home disappointedfor the second week in a row. They canscore either through the air or on theground.

The Rattlers, on the other hand, havehad trouble finding their offensive

punch. After wiping out Albany State54-7 in the season opener, they havemanaged but seven points in twogames. In all, the Rattlers have gonetheir last seven quarters without scor-ing as much as a field goal.

How long will this scoring droughtlast? How long can it last?

Defensively, Florida A&M has beentough. The GanGreen have allowedthe opposition only 13 points in threegames and easily could have had threeshutouts to their credit.

If Alabama State is going to win, theHornets must score, and that might justbe the most interesting thing abouttonight's game. Can the GanGreenkeep doing it to death on defense?They will be sorely tested.

How well the GanGreen performswill decide whether there will be anysubstance to the Rattler cry:Somebody's got to pay!

Editorial Comment/by Roosevelt Wilson

THIS IS THE WAY I SEE IT

Florida A&M football fans are a rarebreed. Never have I seen a group ofmore loyal and patient followers.

Jake Gaither spoiled them rotten, soit was thought. He gave them 25 yearsof the best football played anywhere inthe country and without a hint of a los-ing season. The Rattler fans soon ac-quired the label, "success-spoiled."

For that quarter of a century theywalked proudly in the college footballworld, chest stuck out and boastingabout the Rattlers and their wondersunder Jake Gaither.

Then, following the 1969 season, itall ended as suddenly as it had begun.Jake stepped down and the FAMUfootball program took a nosedive. Therecord was 5-5 in 1970, 6-5 in '71, and5-6 in 1972 and 1973.

Reports abounded that the Rattlerfans were getting restless, fed up withA&M's below-par football. Some per-sons with access to the media fannedthe flame of "discontent" withheadlines and stories suggesting thatthe alumni were pressuring the A&Mbrass to make some changes and setthe football ship aright.

Obviously, there was some truth tothe reports. The alumni as well aseveryone else, were not overjoyed withthe records of those lean years but in-stead of condemning the program theyrallied to FAMU's cause. They sup-ported the Rattlers like they never hadbefore.

In 1974, following back-to-back los-ing seasons, attendance at Rattlerhome games was the highest in theschool's history.

Now, Rudy Hubbard has moved ontothe scene. He is young, energetic anddetermined. Above all, he is some kin-da football coach.

He turned the Rattlers around andput them back on the winning trail andthe Rattler supporters responded byheading toward yet another record

year in attendance. This is only the se-cond home game of the season butjudging by the crowds that saw the firsthome game and those that followed theteam to Greensboro, N.C., the followingweek and to Philadelphia last weekend,those loyal supporters are increasing innumber.

That's super. Now, that's somethingto boast about.

Jackson State's Walter Payton, theDivision II scoring champion lastseason at 12.3 points per game, endedhis career as the all-time collegiatescoring leader. His 464 points weremost by any player in any division andhis 66 touchdowns were another all-time mark. He also kicked 53 extrapoints and five field goals over hiscareer.

The longest field goal in modernNCAA history-63 yards-was kickedlast season by Arkansas State's JoeDuren, whose 56-yarder later, at thegun, beat McNeese State. (Both teamsmove up to major status this season butDuren has graduated.) Longest majorcollege field goal on modern NCAAbooks was 61 yards by Southern Mis-sissippi's Ray Guy against Utah Statein 1972. (Before official modernrecords began in 1937, longest knownFG was a 65-yard placekick byPrinceton's James Haxall in 1882 vs.Yale.) FAMU's longest field goalattempt in modern history was 52 yardsby greg Coleman last Saturday inPhiladelphia against Howard.Coleman's kick was long enough butmissed the mark to the left.

Which team in Divisions II & Illboasts the longest current streak ofconsecutive winning seasons? WestChester State, by a mile and a half. ThePennsylvania college has had 33 con-

secutive winning seasons spanning 35years (no team in wartime '43-44)since a 3-3-3.500 season in 1939 (andits last losing team was in 1933). Nextare Tennessee State, with 16 straightwinning seasons since 4-4-0 in 1958,and Grambling, with 15 straight sinceits 4-6-0 season of 1959. Of course,there's Florida A&M, 26 winners in arow starting with 1944 and ending in1969, including all 25 teams coachedby Jake Gaither.

Oklahoma's Barry Swizer has yet tolose as a collegiate head coach (aftertwo years and part of this one he's 26-0-1), but he has a way to go beforecatching (Gloomy) Gil Dobie, who wentunbeaten his first 11 years-1 906-07at North dakota State and 1908-16 atWashington.

The old question of who's No. 1 wasfor a second straight year answered onthe field in Division II & Ill nationalchampionship playoffs in 1974. TheDivision II championship was won byCentral Michigan (coached by RoyKramer), 54-14 over Delaware in thefinals (at the Camellia Bowl). In thesemifinals it was Delaware 49, NevadaLas Vegas 11 in the Grantland RiceBowl and Central Michigan 35,Louisiana Tech 14 in the Pioneer Bowl.The Division Ill championship was wonby Central Iowa, coached by RonSchipper, 10-8 over Ithaca in the AmosAlonzo Stagg Bowl. In the semifinals,Ithaca defeated Slippery Rock 27-14and Central edged Evansville 17-16.Florida A&M is in Division II but theRattlers will not participate in thenational playoffs because of theOrange Blossom Classic, which isplayed each year during the time thenational championship playoffs are be-ing staged.

COSIDA: Leader in Athletic Public Relationsby PHIL LANGAN

Secretary-TreasurerThey call him and her everything-

tub thumper, drum beater, imagemaker. You name it. But when you getdown to the basics, and in most cases,the sports information director at thenation's colleges and universities is anexpert public relations professional.And within the scope of that title you'llfind him involved in layout and design,writing, editing, photography, adver-tising, radio and television, promotion,film work and a few hundred otherthings.

It's a 60-70 hour a week job for mostof the year and high pressure all theway.

The image of this sports informationdirector and his future are the mainconcerns of CoSIDA, College SportsInformation Directors of America, an18-year-old organization which nownumbers 625 members.

Started as an independent groupafter being a part of the AmericanCollege Public Relations Associationfor years, CoSIDA concentrated onbuilding its membership and providinga thorough, informative annualworkshop for its members until 1971when it started to expand operations.

CoSIDA has begun to educateathletic directors and collegepresidents as to just how valuable theSID is, something coaches andathletes have known for years. It hasstarted regional workshops for newmembers of the profession, in additionto the annual conclave, and now spon-sors academic All-America teams infootball, basketball and baseball, whichare receiving plenty of national atten-tion. It has started a graduate schoolscholarship program for students whospent their undergraduate days as stu-dent assistants in the SID's office.

A total of 22 committees coveringeverything from "The Future ofCoSIDA" to ethics and constitutionalamendments, and from surveys to up-grading the profession are now inoperation.

CoSIDA also sponsors brochure andgame program contests for itsmembers in some 18 categories forboth large and small colleges, andoffers its members an energetic and in-formative 20-page monthly publicationcalled the CoSIDA Digest.

However, the two most importantsteps for CoSIDA have been takenwithin the past three months. The firstmove was the formation of a joint com-mittee of athletic directors and sportsinformation directors aimed at im-proving the relationship between theAD and the SID and developing acloser involvement between the twonational organizations (NACDA(National Association of College Direc-tors of Athletics) and CoSIDA.

The second step was a resolutionpassed unanimously at the recent an-nual workshop held in Houston inwhich CoSIDA resolved not tocooperate with annual and weeklypublications that use gambling relatedadvertisements. This step has beenapplauded by such organizations asthe NFL and NBA and by "The SportingNews." It is CoSIDA's first effort in theon-going collegiate battle againstgambling.

Many of the publications in questionhave already pledged full support of theresolution, and will not carry these adsnext year.

CoSIDA's membership is made upmainly of male, full-time sports infor-mation directors, some athletic direc-tors and an increasing number ofwomen, some of whom handle the en-tire sports public relations program attheir respective schools such as

Villanova and Illinois State, while othershandle only public relations forwomen's athletics, such as Indiana andMinnesota.

A topic of many panels at the last fournational CoSIDA workshops, and onearea of activity which has given the SIDa chance to show off his many talents,is ticket promotion. With the increasingnumber of professional sports, thegreat interest in lifetime sports and thetight budgets of American families,many college athletic departmentshave developed intricate and creativeticket sales programs, plus the equallycreative merchandising of such itemsas blankets, brochures, lamps, pen-nants and mugs, many of which are onsale at the game today. The SID plays aprominent role in the entire operation.

Michigan's promotion-consciousathletic director Don Canham, the sub-ject of a Sports Illustrated articlewhich spotlighted his work in this area,doesn't mince words when describinghis feelings about SID Will Perry. "Thesports information director is now thesecond or third most important man inour athletic department."

Yet the basic job of the SID isproviding information on his school'sathletic program and developingfeature stories for the news-hungrycommunications media.

"The sports information director isvital to our athletic program," Alabamafootball coach and athletic directorPaul "Bear" Bryant remarked recently."He is our link to the public and I rely onhis advice all the time."

Some administrators like Bryantknow the score. Others don't and that isCoSIDA's task in the years ahead:educating their college administratorsto the scope and value of activities in-volving the SID. In addition, of course,to becoming a positive force in that vitalphase of American life called collegeathletics.

JOURNALISM PROGRAM EXPANDSEntering its second year the Florida A&M University journalism program is making great

strides toward becoming one of the finer programs in the country.

When the journalism degreeprogram at Florida A&M Universitybegan its second year this fall, it offeredexpanded faculty, ultra-modern equip-ment and was almost ready to moveinto newly-renovated quarters.

A full range of offerings involving 15different courses was scheduled forfall, says Robert M. Ruggles, jour-nalism chairman. They include in-troductory work in journalism, presshistory, reporting, editing, radio andtelevision news, public relations,magazine article writing, teaching highschool journalism, mass communica-tion law, mass media and the public,and several special courses.

Major renovation work is under wayon FAMU's largest classroom-officebuilding, Tucker Hall, which on com-pletion will house the journalismprogram. Among the new facilities willbe a reference center for journalism, areporting laboratory and an editing lab.

Adjacent space will house a newcampus radio station, which willoperate under supervision of the jour-nalism program. Tucker Hall is also be-ing carpeted and centrally air con-ditioned. The renovation is scheduledfor completion in the spring.

A photo laboratory with 13 enlargerstations, a printing area, three filmprocessing rooms, a color filmprocessing room and a work area is ex-pected to be ready for use no later thanthe spring quarter. Photographystudents will use 35mm Pentaxcameras in their work.

News reporting and editing labs willdo double or triple duty, according toRuggles. Beside serving as labs forprint news courses, they also will beequipped for use in radio and televisionnews courses. Soundproof booths willserve as work stations for newscaststudent producers.

Each will be equipped with a reel-to-reel recorder, portable cassetterecorder, cartridge recorder/playbackunit, micriphone, microphone mixerand a small production board.

Equipment and atmosphere will ap-proximate actual newsroom con-ditions, Ruggles says. A regular newswire and a broadcast news wire fromeither AP or UPI plus telephones willadd additional authenticity to the labs.

Broadcast news students will useportable cassette recorders like thoseused by working news personnel andSuper 8mm sound-on-film camerasand portable color video taperecorders. Portable VTRs and Super 8film are being used increasingly in theTV news business because of theirconvenience and low cost.

Technological advances are movingquickly into the print media as well, andFAMU students will work in a similar at-mosphere in their classes. Facilitiesare equipped with electric typewritersand video display editing terminalssimilar tb those being used by suchnewspapers as the Fort LauderdaleNews and the Miami Herald.

Recently, renovated televisionfacilities are located on the ground floorof the Coleman Library next to TuckerHall.

Major additions are also being madeto the journalism holdings in ColemanLibrary.

Within the next year special facilitieswill be established in the Florida PressCenter near the Capitol for a public af-fairs reporting laboratory.

With the opening of the fall quarterthe journalism program had one part-time faculty member and five full-timemembers, all with advanced degreesand at least five years of professionalexperience.

NCAA Is Charter Memberof Bicentennial Alliance

The National Bicentennial Sports Alliance probablysounds, at first earful, like 1) another attempt to create abureaucracy aimed at overseeing the world of amateurathletics, or 2) a nightmare for the guy who writes newspaperheadlines.

A headline nightmare it may be. A bureaucracy it is not.The NBSA, sponsored by the American Revolution

Bicentennial Administration (ARBA), represents the avenuethrough which national sports and athletic organizations canprovide invaluable assistance toward furthering the objec-tives of the nation's Bicentennial celebration which is alreadyin progress.

The NCAA was approved as a charter member of NBSAin July and John Warner, administrator of ARBA, said, "Thesuccess of the Bicentennial will be judged on the number ofparticipants, not spectators, and the Sports Alliance has thepotential of involving millions of Americans directly in thecommemoration."

The purpose of the Sports Alliance is to promote activeparticipation in the celebration of the nation's 200th birthday.The Alliance recognizes that sports and athletics have in-dividually and institutionally played a significant role in thedevelopment of the nation.

"The NBSA is the umbrella concept that will permit everyNCAA member institution to play a key role in the Bicenten-nial," said Jack DeGange, sports information director at Dart-mouth College and chairman of the NCAA Bicentennial Com-mittee.

"It means," DeGange added, "that any college can usethe national Bicentennial symbol in conjunction with athleticevents and display the Bicentennial flag at these events."

Two important ways in which the Bicentennial already isreceiving stadium exposure this fall are through projects in-volving the International Paper Company and the ChevroletMotor Division.

The official 1975 Bicentennial Medal has been donatedto each NCAA college by International Paper for use in pre-game coin toss ceremonies. The donation of the medals(which are available to the public) is designed to help raisefunds throughout the country for local, state, national and in-ternational Bicentennial projects.

Through cooperation with Chevrolet, the officialBicentennial Flags have been purchased for display atstadiums of NCAA member institutions which will appear ontelevision as part of the ABC-TV college football series thisfall.

The goal of the NCAA is to encourage colleges to workactively in promoting the Bicentennial celebration (throughtheir own events and in cooperation with local, state, regional,and national activities) during the current football season andthrough the 1976 season.

"The objective is to use the exposure opportunitiesavailable through college athletics to make a significant con-tribution to the Bicentennial," said DeGange. "Colleges areencouraged to work independently and in conjunction withother institutions and organizations."

Four NCAA championship events scheduled inPhiladelphia next spring (basketball, fencing, gymnastics andoutdoor track and field) will be designated as Bicentennialevents. The celebration, obviously, will involve much morethan just the football seasons.

A medalfor JohnnyWhen you give him this medal,tell him of the heritage for which itstands.

Meet the New SGA Prexy

Alice K. Allen: Out to Make Things BetterAs a freshman at Florida A&M University, A ice Kay

Allen volunteered to serve on several Student GovernmentAssociation committees because she wanted to do herpart to "help make life on campus better."

Today, four years later, the Chiefland native is still benton making her contribution.

Miss Allen, a psychology major, was elected presidentof FAMU's SGA for the 1975-76 academic year duringcampus elections last May.

She says her administration has given top priority to"making the SGA more visible to students.

'What we're really talking about is more effective com-munications. ' Miss Allen Said. "We want all the students toknow what we are doing and we want their input."

She explained that this will entail all ten of the SGA scabinet officers not only living up to the responsibilities oftheir posts, but also going beyond to provide their owncreative input.

Miss Allen s administration, through its Office of Com-munications, has already initiated what she feels will be avital tool in implementing the SGA's drive for more visibility.It is a Student Government Association Newsletter that willbe published every two weeks. The newsletter is designedto give information on important SGA activities to FAMUstudents and students of neighboring institutions.

'The publishing of this newsletter is part of our studentawareness program." Miss Allen said

'he first newsletter was published J:uly 25. It contained

announcements for campus organizations, describedsome of the new SGA's goals for the year, and carried briefnews items on the Florida Education Commissioner'sviews on intelligence testing, the $50 million overflow in thestudent building fee fund, and the State University System'sgrading codes.

Such news items, Miss Allen Believes, help bring intofocus some of the problems and concerns with which thestudents should be involved.

In gaining election to the SGA presidency, Miss Allenfulfilled what many persons thought to be the naturalculmination of her active involvement in the affairs affec-ting FAMU students. She has served on numerous SGAand University committees, was the SGA s administrativeassistant during her sophomore year, and was SGA vicepresident as a junior. She represented FAMU at theNational Student Symposium for the Study of the Presiden-cy of the United States. She is active in FAMU s PsychologyClub and is a member of Phi Chi National Honor society.

Tall and attractive. Miss Allen is soft-spoken and saysshe is 'most comfortable with others in small. informalsessions.' She is an accomplished public speaker,however, and has proven effective in public appearanceswhen the stuation required.

Miss Allen has not yet decided on whether she will pur-sue a career as a licensed psychologist or a career in cor-rections after graduating from FAMU.

"Whatever I decide upon, I will settle for nothing lessthan the very best," she said

Nearly $18 Million

Construction, Renovation Under WayConstruction and renovation on the FAMU campus will make the University more attractive

to a diverse student body.

Nearly $18 million in capital con-struction and renovations are underway or have been recently completedat Florida A&M University as part of theeffort to putpFAMU's facilities on parwith those Of other institutions in theState University System.

The capital outlay for construction isaimed at improving the educational en-vironment at FAMU and making theUniversity's facilities more attractive toa diverse student body.

In the past FAMU has beenneglected in terms of its facilities, andthis capital outlay represents an effortto enable the University to compete onan equal basis with the other schools.

The Florida Legislature and theBoard of Regents provided the fundsfor the work.

The impetus for the construction andrenovations is not for new space, butmore toward making existing spacemore useful.

Renovations currently underway orplanned at FAMU include the following:renovation of the old FAMU Hospital;renovation of Tucker Hall; renovation ofresidence halls-three phases;renovation of Jones Hall; electricalutilities expansion-three phases; con-struction of a physical plant facility; andcorrections of fire code regulations.

The old FAMU Hospital is being con-verted for use as a central facility forthe University's administration at a costof nearly $2.2 million. The building wastotally stripped inside and is beingredone completely. The work was

begun in November, 1974, and com-pletion is set for November, 1975. The79,000 gross feet of space is expectedto be fully occupied by next spring.The renovation of four-storied TuckerHall, built in 1956, is set for completionnext spring, also. This job entails com-plete carpeting, installation ofelevators, new seating in the CharlesWinter Wood Theatre, and centralizingall faculty offices. The work has beentermed a "general facelift." Cost of theproject is $1.7 million.

Jones Hall, the five-story buildingwhich was also built in 1956 and whichhouses the chemistry, biology, physicsand mathematics areas, is beingredone at a cost of nearly $2.3 million.The work includes installing new labs,equipment and materials, centralizingfaculty offices and the addition of anobservatory atop the roof. Completionis due this month.

Perhaps the most important projectin the construction and renovationprogram is the multi-phased residencehall renovations. Phase I of this project,begun last December, involves therenovation of McGuinn, Diamond,Sampson and Young halls, and the ad-dition of a core area in the center of thisdormitory complex. The core will in-clude covered walkways, display areasand patio space. Total cost is $3.8million.

Phase II is the complete renovationof Cropper and Wheatley halls at an es-timated cost of $2.1 million. Construc-tion of this phase will begin in early1976.

Phase Ill-the complete renovationof Gibbs and Truth halls, and minorrepairs on the Paddyfote Complex-has not been funded. Cost of thisproposed phase is estimated at $2.4million.

Following the renovations, all dor-mitories will be fully air conditioned andcarpeted and all will have elevators.

Electrical utilities expansion is re-quired to carry the load of new ad-ditions to the utilities system at FAMU,and to update the existing equipment.Updating existing equipment (Phases Iand II) will cost $854,000, and addingnew equipment (Phase III) to thesystem will require an outlay of $1.2million.

A new physical plant facility alreadyhas been constructed at FAMU at acost of $520,000. This buildingreplaces the old army barracks whichserved as the physical plant facility formany years. Also, new equipment andmachinery for the facility werepurchased in the expenditure.

Corrections must be made from timeto time to bring all facilities into com-pliance with changing fire coderegulations. An outlay of $738,000 wasmade to bring all present facilities inline with those regulations. This in-cludes work such as adding alarms,sprinklers, hoses, and the addition ofproper ingress and egress routes.

Additionally, some $300,000 hasbeen provided for other projects, in-cluding some renovations of theColeman Library and the Dyson Phar-macy Building.

1975 BASKETBALLPROSPECTUSFLORIDA A&MUNIVERSITY

Florida A&M Basketball Coach Ajac Triplett will experience hisfirst rebuilding season as he enters his third year as coach of theRattlers.

Three of his top six men (two of them starters) are gone as well asa good portion of the bench strength, but Triplett sees this only as achallenge and says that this years squad could turn in a performanceconsiderably better than last years 17-9 record.

Bright spots in the Rattlers' plans are returning starters C. J. John-son, Rufus Conyers and Cleveland Spencer. Johnson, a 6-9sophomore center, was the team's leading rebounder as a feshmanand also averaged over 10 points per game. Conyers (6-0) is the teamquarterback, operating at guard, and should be the stablizing force forthe upcoming campaign. His scoring average was 11.4. Spencer, alegitimate candidate for All-American honors, was the teams singlemost dominating force. He will be a senior and the 6-5 forward is expected to improve on his team-leading 19.9 scoring average and 10rebounds per game figures.

"We'll have a young team, short on expe rience,' Triplett said, 'sowe'll have to be more aggressive."

There will be plenty competition to fill two vacated starting spotsand this is one of the reasons for Triplett s optimism SophomoreMarlon Galimore (6-3), junior Henry Clark (6-0), and sophomoreAnthony Gaines (6-0) will be vying for the open guard spot. Galimore,a tremendous leaper, and Clark are running neck-and-neck and havea slight edge over Gaines.

Kenneth Hubert (6-3), Norman Ready (6-4) and Mike Bynum (6-3)are battling for a position at forward, but Triplett says if there s oneposition that could be filled by a freshman at this point it could be atforward.

Curtis Brooks (6-2), Varrick Logan (6-0), and Carroll Nickerson(6-6) were teammates at West Palm Beach where thier team was theclass AA runner-up last winter. Also expected to add pressure forplaying time are (6-4) Cedric Adams and (6-2) Rodney Carter, both outof Youngstown, Ohio.

As a team the Rattlers averaged 88.3 points per game last season,but left a little to be desired defensively, allowing the opposition 80.7.The Rattlers controlled the backboards, however, due largely to John-son and graduated Wayne Barber, averaging 54.1 per outing to 43.5 forthe opposition.

One big problem for the Rattlers was their free throw shooting,where they shot only 61 per cent, hitting 308 of 504. Triplett said thisalso is one that will get a lot of attention. "If we had shot better from theine we could have won at least seven more games last year."

Just how much better the Rattlers will be will depend on how muchmileage Triplett can get from the new men moving into starting andbackup roles. Conyers, Spencer and Johnson make a fine nucleus.Last year the Rattlers were just one good man away from a superseason. With the right men to complete the starting unit and a coupleof good ones coming off the bench Triplett could have himself aserious contender, not only for the Southern Intercollegiate AthleticConference championship, but also for the national championship heso badly wants.
