Among the South’s institutions | of higher learning, Florida Agri- | cultural and Mechanical College tor negroes at Tallahassee ranks high, and every Floridian may fare of four negroes and the serv- ice it has rendered in publicizing and promoting our state. Lack Funds Handicapped by lack of funds, smiling “Big Bill” Bell, former Ohio State line star—modest and unassumuing despite his amazing coaching ability—has taken the raw material at hand and given Florida A. & M. College a foot- ball team that for two years stands UNBEATEN. While Floridians for the most part have given little thought or attention to their colored “Rat- tlers”, we should not overlook the fact that this team too, is “Flor-| .ida’s” and while it may be little known at home, it is known and respected throughout the South. So far this season Florida A. Orange Bowl Classic M. has piled up a total of 160 points to their opponents’ noth- ing. Among their brilliant vic- tories was the defeat of North Carolina State 41 to 0 and Tuske- gee 40 to 0. On December 3 they tangle with Kentucky State in their Orange Bow! Classic at Orlando for the National Championship, and if Floridians want to see a real football game they'd better not miss it. The brand of foot- ball these southern colored lads have been turning out is so good that “white folks” have been flocking te their games this year throughout the South. Invitations to Bow! Games As Southeastern Conference Champions, the Florida A. & M Rattlers have been invited to play Langston University of Ok- point with pride to the record es- H tablished in advancing the wel-, | sea - slahoma, “Bodtherestarh | ham | pions, in the Cotton Bowl at Dal- las, Texas, on Christmas Day. | They have been chosen to meet | the outstanding eastern team, | playing in the Cigarette Bowl at | Winston-Salem on January 21 ‘while Atlanta wants them on the | same date for an All-Star game | in the famed Georgia Peach | Bowl. But lack of funds has so far prevented’ the acceptance of any | of ‘thes invitations and it will in-| deed be a.shame if, after their! brilliant. record, this great color- ‘ed Florida team is denied the} privilege of. bringing additional | hhoner -and. glory to the state, {through lack of interest and a) ;preciation on the part of its citi- zens. Earned State’s Support After all, a Champion is a Champion, and ‘this splendid Florida team has earned and de- | \serves our support. Remember, ‘Florida A. & M. is a Florida State Institution and the Florida Rattlers are Florida boys. Let’s be public-spirited and fair enough to let. them finish the job with Florida victories at Dallas and Winston-Salem or Atlanta. i And while we are on this sub-| ject of the achievement of Flor- ida’s colored citizens, few are aware of the fact that for years | the negro exhibit at the Florida State Fair has stood as the great- est, exposition of the kind staged in America, attracting national | attention. Played Their Part Likewise, Florida negroes have played their part in advertising and publicizing Florida to the na- tion through their participation in the magnificent Florida Ex- hibits at Chicago, New York and; Cleveland and will again partici- Pate at the New York World's Fair next summer. The Florida Orange Blossom Quartet, all students of the Flor- ida A. & M. College, directed by Rudolph von Charlton, is known today as one of the finest negro musical organizations in the coun- try, ranking with the famed Fiske Jubilee Singers They have given Florida thousands of dollars worth of valuable pub- licity with their radio programs and ;recording. Numberless times they have been featured on Flor- ida programs, coast to coast, with such artists as Major Bowes, Ed Wynne, Ray Perkins, Stoopnagle and Bud, Tiny Ruffner and Graham McNamee.
