<3l]p Daily Ear 1M Ist Practice Is Madness For UNC THE ASSOCIATED PRESS GREENSBORO—Midnight madness turned into Saturday’s soreness as North Carolina officially opened its basketball practice. The reigning national champions held an informal workout before a packed house at Carmichael Auditorium early Saturday morning before putting in their real prac tice. Then the problems began. Brian Reese, whose career at North Carolina has been plagued by bumps and bruises, sprained an ankle. Freshman big man Rasheed Wallace also sprained an ankle. Then freshman guard Jeff Mclnnis and sophomore reserve Larry Davis collided during the drills. Davis suffered a mild concussion and Mclnnis needed stitches in his forehead, although both returned to workouts. Davis went back to workouts Sunday. Wallace is expected to miss the next sev eral days. North Carolina put in two 90-minute sessions Saturday as NCAA member schools started practicing for the first time this season. The Tar Heels practiced for an hour on Sunday. Coach Dean Smith said Reese might be out for a week, or as much as four weeks. Dr. Tim Taft, the team physician, expects to know more about Reese’s condition following an examination. “What a first practice, huh,” Smith said Sunday as Atlantic Coast Conference bas ketball coaches gathered for the annual media day.

TIPOFF FROM PAGE 14 like atmosphere that attract people to the event. WCHL announcer Woody Duiham, wearing a blue-suede blazer that only Woody Durham can wear, was Dick Clark for the night as the gym’s clock counted down the minutes and then the seconds to midnight and anew year of basketball. Vitale and Company aired it all on ESPN. “I can’t believe we televise this stuff,” Vitale mumbled to himself as the clock ticked near the witching hour. Of course 10,000 UNC basketball fans at the stadium and the millions throughout the state think otherwise. Polvo, an area band, wouldn’t start a concert Friday night until the slam dunk competition finished. And who can blame them? After an uneventful game of dribble tag and a three on-three big-man scrimmage, the antici pated dunk tournament didn’t disappoint even if the Tar Heels only made half their dunks. Dante Calabria started things off with an off-the-back board one-handed jam. Lany Davis brought the ball down be tween his legs before a reverse dunk. Eric Montross held one hand behind his neck as he stuffed the ball into the hoop. But everyone in Carmichael was wait ing for Stackhouse. The 6-foot-7 Kinston native, who won the slam dunk contest hands down at the McDonald’s All- America game in April, soared from the foul line to the hoop and jammed the ball windmill style through the net to the roar of the crowd. Vitale coached the Tar Heels in a mini blue-white game as Smith sat behind the press table and watched. “Anything that happened at Midnight Madness was done strictly the way ESPN wanted it; I had nothing to do with it,” he said. But he didn’t seem to mind, sitting with his hands folded and a smile on his face. He and his team rushed off the gym floor and out Carmichael’s back doors as soon as the event was through.

Wisconsin Celebration Turns Into Disaster MADISON, Wis. —The scene seemed natural: thousands of students euphoric after Wisconsin’s victory over Michigan, spilling out of the stands and driving relent lessly toward the nearest goalpost. Some realized immediately that some thing was wrong, including football play ers who rushed to a pile of people at the north end of Camp Randall Stadium. At least 80 people were injured, seven critically, Saturday when a railing collapsed at the edge of the student section, sending fans tumbling into a 10-foot-wide gap be tween the stands and a chain-link fence. One person remained in critical condition Sunday. FROM STAFF AND WIRE REPORTS 9
