The discussion, sponsored by the local chapter of the American Association of University Professors (AAUP) and the Carolina Forum, was to include as panelists athletic director Homer Rice, religion professor Arnold Nash, physical education professor Carl Blyth, Committee of Concerned Athletes chairman Bill Richardson, and associate professor of psychiatry, Dr. William BdkeweH. UNC by Mark Whicker Sports Editor Carolina's defense finally put the brakes on wake Forest's veer offense Saturday afternoon in Kenan Stadium, but it took a lot of stopping distance. The Deacons kept driving to Carolina's goal on two agonizing time-consuming thrusts in the fourth quarter, ending up with an SO-yard total offense edge on the Tar Heels, as 44,000 rain-soaked fans held their breath and tried not to remember 1970. The defense, however, remembered all too well, and stopped Larry Hopkins on the five-yard-line to preserve a 73 Homecoming victory. Hopkins, a rambling fullback who teamed with quarterback Larry Russell to nip ti.e Tar Heels 14-13 in Winston-Salem last year, had already converted one fourth-down situation in the drive. He had carried 33 times for 141 yards. He needed four yeards here, on the i VCl 'J" - A ,.v; i y-s iW - T- Homecoming 1971 to the DKE house Two students were injured. (Staff photo However, Rice said Saturday he was planning to withdraw from the panel because of his understanding the discussion would include the death of Bill Arnold, a football player who collapsed of heat prostration Sept. 6, and died Sept. 21. "As far as Mr. and Mrs. Arnold, the football coaches, the players, and I are concerned," said Rice, "that subject is closed. "I will be glad to talk to anyone, anytime about our athletic program here at Carolina, but not about the Arnold case at this time." Moderator of the discussion will be efense Carolina eight with 20 seconds to go, and fourth down. The Tar Heel defense blitzed to the other side, and so it was left for Bud Grissom, Ricky Packard, John Bunting and Bill Chapman to smother Hopkins inches from the first down and wrap up the victory. "It's our full measure of revenge for last year," Bunting assured writers after the game. At the beginning, it appeared to be a much easier task. Carolina was, to put it mildly, ready. Russell, a resourceful some would say conniving operator of Wake's veer offense, was belted twice by Bunting on the first series of downs. Probably as a result, Russell used Hopkins 34 times and halfback Ken Garrett 21 times. He called his own number 17 times and gained only 18 yards net. The hard rush and the rain also discouraged him from throwing. He attempted two, hit none, and Garrett 5 1 d i jr? - H A ' ' ' ; Years of Editorul Frtt Jo": Monday, October 25, 1971 by Cliff Kolovson) Dan Pollitt of the Law School. Other speakers will be Student Body President Joe Stallings, Faculty Council chairman Dan Okun and alumni secretary Clarence Whitfield. Dr. Henry Landsberger, newly elected president of the AAUP chapter, said Sunday the panel will not inquire further into the Arnold death. "We simply want to inquire into the relationship between football and academics at Carolina," he said. "We're out to explore issues, problems and possible solutions."

When Carolina took the ball on the 42 in the first period, Geof Hamlin switched from fullback to tailback and crashed the line for 30 yards in the drive. Quick pitch plays from inspired quarterback Paul Miller to Hamlin and Ted Levrenz picked up ten and nine yards right off the bat. Hamlin's charges finally ended at the eight, where Levrenz took off behind the blocking of Miller, Bob Walters and John Cowell for an eight-yard score. The Tar Heels got the ball right back and Miller, one of several Heels who shaved their heads last week for "enthusiasm," as Bunting would later say, ran for 16 yards behind Ron Rusnak's block. Then Levrenz fumbled and Wake's Ed Bradley recovered on the Deac 46, and the defense carried the rest of the day. Garrett took a pitch 21 yards to set up one of the oddest field goals seen in S A .

Jim Parker, a junior from Goldsboro. and Richard Kennedy, a junior from Columbia, S.C.. reportedly sustained second degree bums over 30 percent of their bodies as they attempted to flee the blazing house through the mam staircase. Both were in fair condition Sunday in the burn unit of the Intensive Care section of N.C. Memorial Hospital. Vernon Glenn, DKE chapter secretary, estimated damage to the building at more than S200.000 and some individuals estimated their personal losses at more than S5.000. The oricin of the fire had not been football," he said. "Of course, we are not naive about some of the feelings of the panelists. "This will not be a confrontation between two sides, because heated discussion will not add to the solutions." Landsberger said the discussion was not entirely prompted by the charges of the Concerned Athletes Committee, which has called for a re-investigation of Bill Arnold's death. "In essence, we're discussing the same things about football and athletics that people have been talking about for years," he said. "This just seems more of a controversial subject now. Momecomins victory Kenan Stadium a Chuck Ramsey special that floated 40 yards, bounced on the crossbar, and fluttered through. The rest of the day, Ramsey and Carolina's Nick Vidnovic held their own punting contest. The Deacon boomed seven punts for a 48.3 average, while Vidnovic kept Wake in close confines with his seven boots, averaging 46.6. In the second period, Wake took the ball on its 29, 20 and 20 yard lines. Each time, Russell slowly got the veer in gear, mostly through Hopkins, but the Deacs only got to the Heel 44. That was due to a personal foul penalty, and Ramsey missed a field goal to end the half. Wake's plight was aggravated in the third period, with Vidnovic nailing the Deacons to the 16, 20 and 20 yard lines. Ramsey had a better average, but UNC had Rusty Culbreth returning the punts for respectable gain. The Deacon offense could not get out of its own territory, but the defense would eventually hold Carolina without a first down in the second half. .XT - 'A .A j . JetermL-.ed Sur.day.

The fire broke out within 30 minutes of the search and quickly spread to the second and third floors of the house where about 30 fratemit members live. The Chapel Hill Fire Department was notified simultaneously at 6: 10 a.m. by a Chapel Hill policeman and the night clerk at the Carolina Inn across Cameron Avenue from the houe. Through the efforts of Edwin Caldwell, Jr.. long-time employe of the fraternity, and several fraternity members, the sleeping residents of the house were roused. Several people were taken from the second and third floors with ladders by the Chapel Hill Fire Department when the fire fighters arrived at 6:20 a.m. A number of people jumped from the windows to escape the flames. Bill Brenizer, a sophomore DKE member from Charlotte, and Ann Godfrey, a sophomore from New Orleans, Louisiana, jumped from the second floor of the burning house. They were taken to N.C. Memorial Hospital for examination. Both were treated and released following an examination which showed no injuries from the two-story fall. 'They were all really lucky to get out of there with as few injuries as they did," Chapel Hill Fire Chief E.L. Lloyd said following the extinguishing of the blaze. Lloyd said about 50 firemen were called in to fight the blaze, including a The Deacons finally opened the fourth period on the 35, and Hopkins went to, work, carrying six times to the Carolina 41. Garrett and Hopkins both got the first down on fourth down situations; the drive ate up over eight minutes and was stopped only when Wake got fancy. Angelo's interception came with 6:18 to play. Miller could not move the Heels, but Vidnovic came to the rescue with a 65-yard punt that bounced off Frank Fussell's foot. Another personal foul, however, set the Deacons up on the 46 with 4:04 to play. It was Hopkins and Garrett again, and Hopkins finally drove 13 yards to the UNC 15. Twice Bill Chapman stopped Wake runners, setting up third down. Russell had to stop the clock (he had been delaying matters with repeated complaints about the wet ball and the loud crowd ) so he threw incomplete to Garrett at the sideline. t u , ITS.

Defensively there were many heroes. Packard, whose responsibility was the formidable Hopkins (who outweighed Packard by 13 pounds) made tackle after tackle. Bunting dropped his calling cards on Russell. In the end. Wake had a right to feel dejected. After outgaining the Tar Heels and making two big drives in the last quarter, the Deacs were beaten by inches.
