Golf Ass'n Seeks $2,000 For Supreme Court Fight
The Cosmopolitan Golf Association appeals citywide for funds to support a civil rights suit begun in Miami by Miamians for Negroes of Dade County and the State of Florida. The case challenges denial of equal access to Municipal Facilities, tracing a history from a Miami Springs course incident to the Supreme Court stage, with plaintiff Joseph Rice and lawyers Johnson and Graves seeking $2,000 to cover legal fees and court costs. Donations should be sent to Elmer A. Ward, chairman, at 1101 N.W. 3rd Ave.

Rattlers trim Texas 26 6 in opener
Florida A and M College Rattlers overpower Texas College Steers 26 to 6 at Gragg Stadium before 3 000 fans. Bernard Stephens scores on a 79 yard run and Oscar Norman adds two conversion plays as Florida leads 7 0, 13 0 at halftime. Stephens totaling 157 rushing yards, Burgess 64 and Norman 53. Texas Meeks stands out with 89 passing yards and a late rushing TD, but the Florida defense limits the visitors to six first downs and 188 total yards. Five Florida fumbles and seven penalties mar the game while Florida’s mix of ground power and stout line play creates most of the offense.
