CHARLOTTE-Once a three-day reaffirmation of
season-long basketball prowess for North Carolina, the
Atlantic Coast Conference Tournament now looms as
the last glimmering hope for the Tar Heels to recapture
lost admiration, prestige and championships.
The 17th annual ACC Classic gets underway this
afternoon at the Charlotte Coliseum
Carolina, which is not top-seeded for the first time in
three years, tackles seventh-place Virginia at 3:30 p.m.,
following the tournament opener between South
Carolina and Clemson at 1 .
The evening session of the first round that serves to
eliminate half the field just like that finds third-seeded
N.C. State going against Maryland at 7 p.m. Fourth and
fifth-rated Duke and Wake Forest close the opening day
festivities with a 9 o'clock preliminary.
The tournament well lives up to its cutthroat
reputation from the outset, as four teams are forced to
go home after the initial rounds.
The quartet of survivors will fight for the right to
enter Saturday's championship game in the traditionally
tension-packed semifinal round on Friday evening.
The South Carolina-Clemson winner is scheduled
opposite the Duke-Wake Forest survivor at 7 p.m.
tomorrow. The Carolina-Virginia victor gets to meet the

These educators are a part

are taking the beginning steps
toward formulating a new type
of education experience for
today's students.
Matthew Timm, Teachers,
Inc. Project Director for the
Chapel HiU-Carrboro area,
explained education today fails
to include the kind of life
experience the student has.
"We must talk about things
that are important to him (the
student), beginning with where
he is at whether he is black,
white, poor, etc.
"Teachers can't impose

State-Mary tend winner in the 9 o'clock nightcap.
The title g3me is set for 8:30 p.m. Saturday.
That's the schedule of events, but its simplicity is far
removed from the almost unbearable pressure that each
victory brings to a team, its coaches and its followers.
The Friday semifinals when all of the "dead weight
has supposedly been eliminated-is a doubleheader
unmatched in mental strain.
Theoretically, the four top teams of the country's
most prolific conference have one final opportunity to
either prove or reprove superiority, whichever the case
may be.
For South Carolina, the tournament represents one
last hurdle that must be carried before the superb
season, which most playoff critics contend they've
already had, can be validated with a championship.

community and new ways to

'The unfortunate thing that
happened in Chapel Hill is that
people thought Teachers, Inc.
would provide all the answers,"
according to Timm.
"When you assume this role,
it becomes difficult to operate
because it will irritate people
who have been here for years,"
he continued.
Timm emphasized that
Teachers, Inc. doesn't have all
the answers. They are still
learning from others and from
their own mistakes.
"We have the ingredients to
provide some very important
contributions to the Chapel
Hill school system," Timm
concluded.
The Gamecocks went through 14 conference games
without a defeat and are the solid favorites to capture
the official title.
For Duke. State and Wake Forest, the thr?e days in
the Queen Gty represent another attempt at unresting a
championship from the derided favorite. The Blue
Devils have not been successful since 1966. the
Wolfpack since 1965 and the Deacons since 1962.
Each challenger has been close Duke test season.
State in '66 and Wake in '63. But recently, their bids
have turned into frustration.
The perennial second division trio Mary tend.
Virginia and Clemson can only carry a prayer of
surviving the first round. The Terrapins of Lefty Drieseli
seem to have the best chance, with a combination of
their underrated strength and State's second and third
round concerns being the rudiments of a possible upset.
Clemson and Virgin b seem destined for a more
defined death, but they have suffered through a season
of preparation. The Tigers don't feasibly stand a prayer,
and the Cavaliers cannot rationally hope for a much
better fate.
That leaves Carolina, a team that has been
wading and often seeminalv drowning in the sea of
mediocrity this season.

He added the move in
education is toward individual
instruction and independent
study as the most effective way
to learn in a public classroom.
The burden of learning is
being transferred from the
teacher to the student,
according to Timm. This means
the student has the
responsibility to learn what he
wants to and what he is
interested in, while the teacher
provides a variety of
experiences, structure,
motivation, and counseling to
insure the student an
interesting means to attain his
goal.
In pursuing this idea,
however, Timm added that
there is more to being
successful in living than just
earning a living.

These answers coincide with
some of the basic questions
raised by Teachers, Inc., the
first being the quality of

Timm said Teachers, Inc.

their play seemed to deteriorate as the season dragged
on.
But this is a new season. Dean Smith has said. In
October it was clearlv designated that the champion
would be crowned at the Charlotte Coliseum in March,
not before. He has displayed confidence that his phers
will perform better under the tournament pressure than
they have in the waning weeks of the regular schedule.
There is reason to doubt Smith. But there is aKo
reason to believe in him. He has brought basketball
prominence back to Chapel Hill.
Today, he will attempt to disconcert the doubt and
reaffirm that prominence.

of Mrs. Scurlock and other
workers is the present system
of "bumping". Workers are
now being bumped, according
to the seniority list, regardless
of whether or not they are
Union members. Mrs. Scurlock
says the employees are
opposed to "bumping."
Elizabeth Scurlock, another
SAGA employee, said, "SAGA
isn't as bad as people have
said. With the Union out I can
work and don't have to worry
about being laid off or

Five weeks ago a group of
workers went to see President

the University keep SAGA or
take over the food service.
Being unable to see Friday
they went to Vice-Chancellor

At that time one of the
workers, who wished to remain
