THE DAILY TAR HEEL Pasre 3 Face Virginia Away 1 onight rm sacrifice H T ' Olio H FTR 1T For- ACC o ft n lie 11X1 Saturday, February 24, 19G8 Ihe e Of A Swi, It seems ironic that during the 75th anniversary observance of this oft-maligned newspaper one of the swimming team's most outstanding performers has given it alt up for a $7 a week job as Daily Tar Heel movie and theatre reviewer. t The story will be best appreciated by the visiting DTH alums but there is, in truth, a message here for all of us. Joe Sanders is a junior -journalism major from Washington, D.C., whose overall quality point average rests, at a pleasant 3.0 and whose best time for the 100-yard free style is 47.6, the team record. . ' . - Sanders wants very much to be a newspaperman. At one time he wanted to swim in the 1963 Olympics. The twain have met and today Sanders is no longer a member of the swimming tm The decision was his. It was difficult, but he sees it as the only way to prepare for his future. "I had always devoted a great deal of my time to swimming," says Sanders. "I even enjoyed the workouts because I believe if anything was worth doing it should be done with dedication. Sanders might never have made it into college had it not been for his swimming prowess. . ' f In his sophomore year at a Miami, Fla., prep school he stood 29th in a class of 30 with little hope for the future. "Even though it was the middle of the winter and it can get cold in Miami" says Sanders, "I was assigned to swimming as an activity. I had never been much interested in it although I did know how. . " . ' "By the end of the year, though, I had fallen in love with it. The swimming coach was like a father to me, too. His urging kept me in school." . - Toward the conclusion of his senior year Sanders had risen to number three in his class and had won prep school All-American honors in the 100-yard freestyle. ' Indiana and North Carolina were among the several schools which accepted him and he chose the latter. "I visited Chapel Hill in December of my senior year and really liked the place," he recalls. - j, r o O i j j to Indiana, because the swimming program there is so powerful, earn upcoming ame but I just wanted to come here." - : Although the reserves cer- unbeaten freshman squad. He barely made the travelling team, though. "At the beginning of this year, though, I began to find myself more and more devoted to journalism. I realized that when I got out of school I would need a good, job and that swimming wouldn't give it to me. "When the Dean of the journalism school (NorvaLNeil Luxon) told me I had a chance to graduate with honors that was the in centive I needed. I realized I had the potential to be a good journalist if I only gave it the time it deserved. "That's why I decided to give up swimming. I am just more in terested in preparing for the future. I want to do well in school and begin to get experience." , "I knew I wasn't doing well but I thought I might do better if I could swim a sprint since I was just participating in the distance events. In the last meet of the year, I entered the 100 and finished second in the freshman invitational." Sanders' best showing came last summer in the Eastern USA Regional Championships where he finished first in the 200 and tied N. C. State star Steve Rerych for first in the 100. Until recently Sanders was a member of a 400-yard medley relay team that ranked in the top five in the country. It was cer tain to claim All-America recognition. ? Now that's all behind him.- Sanders will not participate in the team's meet against East Carolina today but he will compete in the Atlantic Coast Conference championships. Nothing else, however. Sanders feels that he is "throwing away a lot of pleasant memories and good times." DAILY CROSSWORD ACROSS 1. Ecclesi astic 8. Auditor: abbr. 11. Solvent 12. Conjunction 13. Girl's name 14. Pigs 16.

In fact, he was in them so much and played so well that he was an All-City, All-County and' All State selection. - Today, he's sitting on the bench watching the North Carolina Tar Heels play. "Although I'd rather be playing regularly, it's still ex citing to sit on the bench for " the number three team in the nation," Delaney said. . The sophomore political science major sat back in his Avery Dorm room and ad mitted he looks t forward to practice everyday He can look forward to little else. "Practice isn't a burden on me because I love to play basketball" he said. The reserves get a chance to com pete earnestly during practice with such stars as Larry Miler . and Charlie Scott. In this way we help the team prepare for as tne starters, Delaney feels they contribute importantly to the team effort. ' V - "The harder we work at practice, the harder the : starters will play in the next game," the 5-11 guard said. "Also, practicing against these 'greats' helps us improve and gives us the incentive to try to win a spot in the starting ' lineup." ' ' Delaney is small in the basketball worldr , but hfs en thusiasm is enormous when he talks, of this year's : Tar . Heels ' - s "It's not difficult for me to get 'psyched up' for each game, although I know I may not be playing much," he said. "We think of every game as a team challenge and even if you're, watching and unot playing, great enthusiasm is a natural instinct because the -success of the tean is the only thing on your mind. "Near the end of a great season like the one we're hav ing, each game means so much that it's easy to get excited even though I may not be call ed, on to. -play. It's very rewarding to be part of such a great team." v ! ' Delaney feels the Tar Heels have lived up to expectations but hastens to add, "we still have a lot more to accomplish before we can call ourselves a truly great team. We definitely DEE White Spills Chi Phi Blood, 78-33 In Murals By BOB COLEMAN of The Daily Tar Heel Staff DKE White demolished the Chi Phi Blood Thursday-in white fraternity basketball, 78 33. Holderness, Dawson, Klutz, Curd and Covington provided the firepower, while Johnston and Jefferess were high men for the losers.

Earl Jenkins 16 points paced Pi Kap Phi White I over Star, have the potential to go all the way to the national cham pionship." When he entered college, one of Delaney's desires was to play for one of the nation's great teams. Carolina has fulfilled this desire even though he isn't getting to play. "I came down here to try to play with the best players on a great team instead of being a ,sure starter on a mediocre team. The pre-season com petition was (tremendous because of all the retiirning lettermen and other outstan ding sophomores like Scott and Eddie Fogler." Delanev ranked third in scoring with last year's, freshman team, hitting 221 points for a 13.8 average. He hit 49.4 percent of his field goal attempts.

The nationally third-ranked Tar Heels met Virginia earlier in the season at Chapel Hill and ran the Cavs ragged, 103 64. Virginia, however, is a better club in its own environs. The Cavs almost upset Duke in Charlottesville before bowing in the final minute earlier in the month. Then too, last year's UNC far this season," said Coach Earey.

Gametime for the preliminary to the Carolina Virginia varsity clash is 6 p.m. at University Hall. The Tar Babies defeated the Cavayearlings 80-60 at Chapel Hill Feb. 6 Carolina has won v four straight games since then (one of those an unofficial vic tory over the Intramural All Stars) and now boasts a 10-3 , record. Coach Chip Conner's Virginia club will be looking to guard Kevin Kennelly and center Bill Gerry to pace the UVa attack tonight. Bill Fulton, a 64 forward, 6-6 Bob Galione, and guard Bill Creason are ex pected to join them in the starting line-up. Kennelly is the top Cavalier, scorer, averaging better than 18 points per game.

Carmichael leads the con ierence in field ggoal per ren tage with a 57.3 mark. Guard Barry Koval and 6-5 forward Mike Wilkes round out the lineup.- The Cavaliers rely heavily on a fast break offense. They like to get the ball down court and shoot quickly after passing the midcourt line.

For this, reason, a Cavalier slow down wouldn't sunrise many. Dean Smith, of course, has his full stable of stars in top shape.
