Vhil Riker arrived on the
Carolina campus three weeks
ago with an impressive string
of credentials nationally
ranked age-group swimmer for
many years, two-time prep All
America at Lawrenceville
school, member of the United
States Olympic team, and a
fdurth place 'finish in the 200
meter butterfly race in Tokyo.
'But if Riker's advance billing
sparkled, his performances here
have shown brighter and been
written larger than any advance
notices. Fifteen days after his
arrival, Riker, a native of Pat
terson, N. J., had three UNC
freshman marks and two NCAA
freshman swimming records to
his credit.
- Both NCAA standards are in
the butterfly events, 51.6 for
100 yards and 1:58.0 for the
2Q0. His UNC freshman mark is
a 1:49.9 clocking for the 200
freestyle.
While these - times are re
markable by any design, they
are only an indication of Rik
er's full potential. "I didn't go
near a pool for a month or so
after my return from Tokyo. My
work here with the freshman
team is the first serious train
ing I've done since the Games.
I'm beginning to get back in
shape and feel stronger every -day."
Recently, the National AAU
contacted Riker and offered him
a place on the American team
competing in the Ninth Inter
national Swim Meet in Bremen,

senior at the tender aee of six
teen. Riker decided to spend
two years at Lawrenceville be
fore going to college.
It was here at Lawrenceville,
near Princeton, N. J., that Riker
was a teammate of Pete Worth
en. "I kept cettinff letters from
Pete all last year saying what
a great place this was. So I de
cided to see for myself. I came
down in June for pre-registra
tion, talked to Coach Earey and
some of the swimmers training
for the Olympic trials, and de
cided to come."
Often swimming more than
seven miles a day. Riker spent
the summer at his local Sun
dance Swim Club training for
the trials in late August.
"I probably would have lost
my interest in swimming if I
had missed the team. As it is,
the work this summer seems a
small fee for the trip to Tokyo
and taking part in the games."
Riker finished third in the
American trials with a 2:09.5
for the 200-meter butterfly. His
fourth place finish in Tokyo was
still faster than the previous
world record.
Riker admits he plans to take
things easier this summer. "I
want to have a little fun along
the way, after all you're only
young once."
"Swimming has kept me out
of trouble, allowed me to trave
around the country and the
world, and meet many DeoDle
These associations will remain
long after my last race."

Estes Named
All-American
Posthumously
NEW YORK ( Wayne Estes,
whose record-shattering basket
ball career at Utah State Uni
versity was cut snort by death
a week ag was named Tues
day to The Associated Press All
America team one month
ahead of schedule.
In a precedent-breaking move,
the AP disclosed the award
during a memorial ceremony
for the basketball star on the
Utah State campus. It was the
first time an All-America had
been named before the end of
the regular college season.
Other All-America selections
will be announced in mid
March. P'ctps. the first posthumous
All-America, was electrocuted
Feb. 8 when he accidentally
touched a high-tension wire
near the Utah State campus.
Only two hours earlier, he had
scored 48 points against Denver
University for a career total of
2,001 a school record.
The handsome 6-foot-6 senior
was returning from telephoning
his parents in Anaconda, Mont.,
to tell theni of his record when
he stopped at a traffic accident.
A car had slammed into a metal
utility pole and snapped a live
wire. Estes' forehead brushed
against the wire.
Ironically, the height that
helped him to stardom on the
court contributed to his death.
Had he been " three inches
shorter,, the wire would have
missed him.
Student Body Attends
The All-America certificate
was presented' at the memorial
service by representatives of
the Salt Lake Tribune, the Salt
Lake Desert News and The As
sociated Press. Almost the en
tire Utah State student body
witnessed the ceremony.
Estes, a hero on campus and
in the college town of Logan,
was buried Friday in his home
town of. Anaconda. The Utah
State basketball team, his coach
LaDell Andersen and student
leaders attended.

Revamped Tar,. Heels Battle
Wolf pack;
With three conference games
on tap, this is the week that is
for Coach Dean Smith's Tar
Heels.
Tonight the Carolina basket
bailers travel to Raleigh to
meet N. C. State's second-place
Wolfpack. This
Tar Heels will do battle with
South Carolina and Clemson in
the North-South Doubleheader
in Charlotte.
All three games are musts
for the Tar Heels, who are bid
ding for a favorable seeding
in the conference tournament.
If the Heels can knock off the
Wolfpack tonight, the road to
a second-place finish will be
much easier.

mark. Two of the Wolfpack'sij
iu&ses nave come at the hands
of the first-place Duke Blue
Devils while the other defeat
came in the second game of the
year against Wake Forest.
Earlier in the year, the Wolf
pack hung a disappointing 65-62
defeat on the Tar Heels in Wool
len Gym as Carolina blew a 14
point lead in the second half in
one of their worst performances
of the year.
But a revamped Tar Heel
squad will take the floor at
Raleigh tonight. With two con
secutive wins tucked under their
belts, the Heels look as if they
are ready to live up to the po
tential predicted for them.
