October 18, 1971 . - - - .lP.U" Dooley: 'Best defense I've seen' Mark Whicker I That Irish spirit Magic question9 irritates Ara The Daily Tar Heel by Mark Whicker Sports Editor Ara Parseghian is getting a little irritated when someone asks him the magic question. Line, are you disappointed that Notre Dame's offense didn't roll up, say, hO points against North Carolina, instead of 16. "Look, I said before the season our offense might have some problems," said Parseghian after the game, with a combative gleam in his eye. It was as if :-trnsone had said "Chevrolet" in his presence. "There is no prerequisite for winning a game that says you have to score fivetouchdowns. We played a real good football game today. "There are many different ways to win. We are winning with our defense. Carolina is averaging over 400 yards total offense, and we held them to something like 150 (149, actually)." In the Carolina locker room, Bill Dooley reflected on being shut out for the first time in four years. "Notre Dame is the best defensive team I've ever seen," Dooley said. "At times, they made us look very bad offensively, and the truth is we are a very good offensive team." The coach mentioned two illegal motion penalties on UNC's first drive, which was going well, and quarterback Paul Miller's inaccuracy in the first half as obstacles to success. "Paul was missing his receivers at first, and when he began to throw well the receivers began to drop the football." TME WACCE" M and 'ON CAMPUS' VISIT One receiver, Earle Bethea, took a Miller pass at the four in the third quarter, but Notre Dame's defense stiffened and Mike Kadish blocked a Ken Craven field goal. But Bethea caused Notre Dame another headache in the first half, when he stationed himself behind four blockers at the sideline on a kickoff, took Lew Jolley's lateral, and ran to the Irish 45. The Notre Dame culprit there was Clarence Ellis, who broke up the play by himself. "That was one of the greatest plays I've ever seen in Notre Dame Stadium," Parseghian said. "Clarence was fantastic." Ellis said later he just "backpedaled" until he found the opportunity to make the play. Frosh host Wake today by David Zucchino Sports Writer The Wake Forest freshman football team has a decided pehcant for masochism. The Deaclets seem to enjoy punishing themselves. The Deaclets are at Kenan Stadium today for a 1 :30 clash with Coach Moyer Smith's Tar Babies and Smith is afraid that Wake has worked the fumble syndrome out of its system. He has his reasons. In a recent 27-13 loss to NC State, for instance, Wake ran roughshod over the Wolflet defense behind a potent veer Trade mar by v a Co keep the glass., A contemporary glass for Coca-Cola Collect your set of 6 or 8 AT YOUR NEAREST SNACK BAR AVERY EHRINGHAUS NOOK (Public Health) JAMES SCUTTLEBUTT LUNCH BOX MORRISON Blue Ram THE BAR (Y-Court) CRAIGE OSLER CIRCUS ROOM (Health & Science) stiscSeot stokes UNIVERSITY OF UNIVER SITY OPTICIAN J.

"I didn't know how marry blockers there were, but I just saw a big wall of white." Ellis was defending Bethea on the four-yard line catch, and he indirectly complimented Dooley 's stategy cf "decoying" the split end until the right time came along. "I really wasn't expecting then to throw to him on that play," Clarence remarked. "I was playing it real close and when he cut in, I hesitated. But it was a great catch." Near Ellis, defensive end Walt Patulski talked about the goal-line stand that followed. offense patterned after the Wake Forest varsity. The Deaclets got so involved in grinding out yardage, however, that they forgot to hang onto the football. Wake fumbled four times in the first half, losing out on at least three sure touchdowns in the process. Things really got out of hand last week against the Duke freshmen. Wake Forest ball-carriers committed an incredible total of 18 fumbles versus the Blue Imps, resulting in an embarrassing 54-0 rout. It seems that Wake Forest, who upset the Tar Babies last year, was also trounced badly in its first two games last NORTH CAROLINA I I YO "W- always go for the shutout. suai Patulski of the defense that his r.r- -h: opponents eff without a touchd: wr. :':r 14 quarters.

Nothing has changed mce then. Carolina opened up this year with a convincing 42-21 triumph ever the Stare frosh, so Smith is a little wary. "Wake Forest always saves their be: games for us. just as their varsity does." laughs Smith. "So they probably won': fumble or make any mistakes against us." Accordingly, Smith will have his Tar Babies primed for Wake's wide-open offense. "We'll have to shut off their veer," he warns. "'Both State and Duke beat Wake Forest, but neither of them was able to stop the veer. Wake just beat itself with fumbles." The Tar Babies have enough muscle and skill of defense to control the veer. Smith describes the I'NC rushing defend as "pretty good" and likes the looks of his defensive secondary, especially defensive back Frank Townsend. Townsend, from Fayettculie. N.C.. was recruited as a quarter Kit w.; switched to defensive back K-case of a sore shoulder. "Townsend looks very coool defense," Smith says. "'He's ., g.

Several other Tar Babies are suffering from shoulder problems and assorted minor ailments, but otherwise Smith is optimistic. "We've looked more polished lately in practice against the varsity," he claims. "The blocking has been much better and the pass defense looks strong." Still, passing is the UNC strong point. Quarterback Chris Kupec completed 15 of 17 passes for over 200 yards versus State, while QB Charles Baggett rushed for 69 yards on just six carries. occer team at irginia by David Zucchino Sports Writer When Coach Marvin Allen's Carolina soccer team started off the 1971 season with three impressive victories, Allen stuck with his starting lineup and things clicked smoothly for a while. Then the Tar Heels r3n into a well-drilled N.C. State team and fell to their first defeat of the season. Carolina's forward line was lethargic and erratic in the loss, so Allen decided to do something about it. He liked the way that halfback Bill Isherwood was kicking the ball and brought him in to play on the front line in Carolina's match against East Carolina last Friday. Isherwood, a junior from Springfield, Pennsylvania, made Allen look like a strategic genius. Playing forward for the first time, Isherwood waited only a minute and a half before ramming in UNC's first score and added a second goal in the fourth quarter. Allen is not about to give up on a good thing. He's sticking with the same lineup that won Friday's game in today's ACC encounter with Virginia at Charlottesville. The Cavaliers, who last season became the only team other than Maryland to capture the ACC soccer title, are back again this year with just as much talent.

"It's not a feeding fround for the pros." he says. "Name the last great Notre Dame quartet back who made it big in the pros and you have to go back to Darvle Iamomca. who was here before Parseghian. "Name the last great Notre Dame running back, and you have to go back to Nick Pietrosantex. in the late 50s." "And we're not a football factory." says Valdiserri in a spacious office where one Well is covered by Academic-All-America plaques. "We don't have a physical education major offered here, and most of our guv s are good rtudents. Neither do we have an athletic dormitory." But the myth of Notre Dame devotion to football is beyond denial. Look in the LaFortune student center and see the bulletin board plastered with notebook papers that read. "1 need two tickets for USC." or "Willing to pay big for UNC ticket." See the marquee on Don's Liquor Oasis in South Bend that reads, "Irish Tarheels 7." (It was changed to 16-0 right after the game. Look at a jukebox in an Likhart, lnd. motel. There it is right between Tammy Wynette and the Carpenters, the Notre Dame fight song. And then ask someone, preferably Terri Buck, the comely cheerleader who beautifies the back cover of the Fighting Irish Football Guide, if Friday's extravaganza was the typical Notre Dame pep rally. "Oh, no. Not at all. You should be here next week for Southern Cal and see what it's REALLY like." arriers lose beat Clemson by Dan Collins Sp rts Wriitr For the Carolina cross countrv team, Saturday w as just one of those days w hen nothing went right, it happens to evvry team, good or bad: a meet they would rather forget about. The team suffered its first conference setback to hands of rival Duke, 20-39. The oniy bright spot of the morning was the team's 1 S-44 bhtz over Clemson. With two ni Carolina's best runners, Tony Wuldrop and Mike Caldwell running at only half-strength, the Blue Devils completely outmatched the Heels. Running on their familiar but hilly course in Durham the Duke team tock the first, third, fourth, fifth and seventh positions. Duke's winning score over Clemson was a lopsided 15-48. The number one runner for Duke, Bob Wheeler, watched Carolina's Reggie McAfee take the lead and hold it for the first three-quarters of the race. After about three-and-a-half miles into the five-and-a-half mile race, Wheeler took the lead and easily held it to the finish. The winning time was 26:56, only twelve seconds off the course record. McAfee, as it turned out. had took the lead too early in the race and had little H i r THE ACCHAE 4:30 7:00 THE SAME WITH t if aetiv - ties center tth a peedesic dome on the cr.e h.ev stole from r-rar.ium n:ri k..i.

To complicate matters he developed stomach cramps late in the race and finished a distant and unaccustomed sixth with at 27:45 time. After falling down twice on the slippery turf early in the race Carolina's Larry Widgeon ran an outstanding and courageous race. He finished second to Wheeler with a 27 : 1 3 mark, Duke's number two man Scott hden was third with 27:31. followed by teammates Larry Forrester and Roger Beard more with 27:38 and 27:40 marks. Waldrop ran, to. held back intentionally in order to get back into shape before going full speed. As it turned out he was Carolina's number five man with a 29 : 1 5 time. "Some of our times could have been better," said Carolina Coach Joe Hilton, "if we had been more accustomed to the course. I'm not making excuses, though, because Duke definitely outran us. "I think Widgeon ran a really good race. He had to run a little harder after he fell down to get himself back into contention. "I'm really pleased with the way Waldrop came back and ran the race even though he wasn't in top condition. I think by the conference meet we'll be readv." mi :i ?! .Si s Entrance back of tfie Zoom Mon. -BAKED CHICKEN w Bercy Sauce Tues.-ROAST BEEF Wed.-CHOPPED SIRLOIN w Spanish Sauce Thurs.-BEEF ON BUN Fri.-VEAL CUTLET served w 2 veg. & bread TOSSED SALAD & CHOICE OF DRESSING L
