Li "'C Lib Thursday, December 8,; 1966 THE DAILY TAR HEEL Page 5 "Coach Ray "Coach Ray isn't in," the secretary in the athletic office in South Bend, Indiana said. "When will he be back?" the reporter asked. "Tomorrow afternoon. He's out of town." John Ray was indeed out of town. He was hundreds of miles away from the cold and bleak Notre Dame campus. At the same instant that the telephone call was made he was at another university in office in Car michael Auditorium. Ray was the last of numerous coaches who has journeyed to office 149 during this past week. It's a big office with wide desks and paneled walls and a pretty secretary. It belongs to Chuck Erickson and Walter Rabb, and from room 149 a decision will be reached. Within the next twelve days, the University of North Carolina will have a brand new football coach. Pat James from Oklahoma, Homer Smith from Davidson, Bill Dooley from the state of Georgia. . . There are eight names that Erickson, Rabb, and the selection committee have decided to give serious con sideration to. John Ray outshines them all. He is a great football coach. His name is synoni mous with defense, and his defenses are the best in the nation. Ara Parseghian leaves the job of stopping the oppo sition in the hands of his number one assistant coach. This season the Parseghian-Ray product was the na tion's number one football team. In 1964 and 1965 Notre Dame's defense allowed opponents an average of only six first down rushing and 72 yards on the ground per game. Ray began his career in college coaching at John Carrol University in 1959. In five years he compiled a record of 29 wins and six defeats. In 1962 the team was the best defensively among the small colleges. It established six NCAA records. Ray is a South Bend first team center in 1944. ' John Ray's appearance in room 149 proves that he's willing to leave his home town and his own Uni versity. He's interested in spending his Saturday after noons on the sidelines of Kenan Stadium. John Ray is a great collegiate football coach, one of the greatest in the nation. Carolina has an opportunity that can't be missed. Dolphs Carolina's tankmen sank Duke University 65-27 to make it three in a row in an undefeated season.

(Those tiny bubbles are the only beer bubbles in America that come from the natural carbonation of Beechwood Ageing.) Another thing about a big glass: it lets you quaff the beer. And who wants to sip, when the beer tastes as hearty as Budweiser? That's about the size of it! Choose any kind of glass you want ... as long as it's big enough.

United Press International ranked the Tar Heels as ninth in the nation and while Associated Press assigned them the number eight slot. But with the exception of UCLA, which appears firmly entrenched in the top spot, the ratings for all teams are shaky and may get a good shuffle by next week.

Was it because of the miser able 2-8 record? Maybe it was due to our unproductive of fense, which was time and time again stymied by the op posing defenses. Or possibly it was the fact that no indi vidual for UNC had more than a mediocre season (according to the statistics). Injury - ridden Carolina lim ped through a rough schedule which included first - ranked Notre Dame, fourth - ranked Georgia, Michigan of the Big Ten, two pretty good outside foes and five conference oppo nents. This should not eliminate the chances of some Carolina players receiving post season honors. The UNC offense was kept in harness for much of the season David Biggs the leading Tar Heel rusher, gain ed about 400 yards, placing him 11th in the ACC. Riggs was just behind All - ACC se lection Gary Rowe in punt and kickoff returns. He alternated with Dick Wesolowski and carried the ball only 110 times, tops for the team.

Fifth ranked Houston may also be in seious trouble after losing to non - ranked Michi gan after this week's ratings were tablulated. UCLA gained its rating after only one game, and faces Duke this week.

Here are the polls:. it-; o '-J By ers gained over 120 yards. With the ball carrying chore rlivirtpH nmnncr n monv man it was difficult for anv one r to make a bid for the all ACC backfield. Pass receiving was a different matter, alto gether. Charlie Carr caught 52 passes to break the conference record. Split end duty was divided among Peter Davis, Bobby Knott and Carr. Even though he was injured in the Air Force game, saw limited action in the Duke game and missed the entire Virginia con test, Carr still managed to top the ACC in pass receptions. But he was snubbed by the "writers. The quarterbacking chore was split among three men, out of necessity more than any thing else. Danny Talbott, Jeff Beaver and Tim Karrs each had one - third of the field general duty. The combined totals of these three was 150 completions for 3 touchdowns and 1585 yards.

It will make a decision within the next twelve days. For the past week the com mittee interviewed numerous candidates. Among these were Notre Dame's defensive head coach John Ray. The Irish were voted the number one spot among the nation's college football teams in the final post-season polls. Ray's defen sive unit ranked second to Alabama in total points scored against it during their '66 campaign. Ray came to Chapel Hill yesterday. He was the last coach to be interviewed by the selection committee. Davidson's head coach Hom er Smith was also in Chapel Hill this week, i Bill Dooley, the brother of Georgia's head coach, was al so interviewed.

Hen ry Sadler held his ground at defensive tackle against ten strong foes. A disappointing omission was the name of defensive end Bo Wood. He played every game and practically every minute of Carolina defense. A three - year starter, Wood made numerous tackles and assists, knocked down several passes, and even intercepted one. The all conference nomi nees overlooked Bo, but he was not entirely without recog nition. He was chosen to ap pear in the Senior Bowl as well as the North - South game.

The aggressive UNC bandits turned a close duel in to a rout in the second half with their crafty floor game which produced a 93-74 vic tory. Guard Eddie Fogler took the part of Sir Robin by quarter backing the Tar Baby defense and fast break which left the taller but slower Dukies com pletely helpless. The short, quick UNC out fit intercepted passes and slapped the ball away from their opponents at will. It was grand larceny. Center Gra Whitehead car ried out the bandit theme even farther by stuffing in a game high 35 points from undelr the basket in a Little John role. Whitehead turned in a sur prise performance by outbat tling his taller defenders and coralling 18 rebounds, leading all players in that department. The opening minutes of the contest were characterized by sloppy ball - handling and fre quent turnovers. Carolina, how ever, snapped out of its mis take - ridden doldrums and proceeded to harass Duke into many mistakes.

Steal Blue Imps, a sticky man - to - man de fense which immobilized the Baby Devils. The Durham squad was never able to break a man open for a clear shot. Much of its offense consisted of hopeless passes and drib bles which advanced the ball no closer to the basket. Duke took an early lead but UNC came back to grab a 29 25 lead and quickly ran up a 37-27 advantage. The Devils went nearly five minutes with out scoring midway in t h e first half and d;d not score a field goal for seven minutes. The Tar Babies were faced with a 2-1-2 zone which forced them to shoot from outside. Fogler, Al Armour, and Jim Delaney were consistent from the field, however, and when Duke came out to cover them, Whitehead was left free under the basket. With quick, sharp passing, the Tar Babies fed the ball to Whitehead and he put in 18 first - half markers Mean while UNC threw up a full court press which stopped Duke cold. Many times the Blue Imps lost possession be fore taking a shot. Carolina carried a 43-25 mar gin into the dressing room at halftime. The second half was a con stant fast break.

The Tar Babies quickly ex panded their halftime lead and scored ten consecutive points at one period, running the score from 53-42 to 63-42. - Duke's highly - touted guard John Posen then went to work and prevented a total disaster by arching in 12 points to keep the final margin at 19 mark ers. Coach Brown substituted freely as Carolina flirted with a 30 - point lead and no start ers were in action with less than three minutes left. Duke was led in scoring by Posen and forward Doug Jack son with 18 points each. Jack son fouled out with over five minutes remaining. Fogler laid in 18, Armour 17, and Delaney 10 points to back up White head's high - scoring effort. UNC also outrebounded the tall Baby Devils, 39-34, and shot at a 52.0 clip from the field.
