.Robinson is satisfied:
Wolfpack quarterback Bruce Shaw just grits his teeth and
waits for the inevitable as two Tar Heel defenders close in. The
action came during UNC's 3433 win over State Saturday.
Hawks hit
in Julius
ATLANTA (UPI) - The already
snarled Julius Erving case took two morn
turns Monday when National Basketball
Association commissioner Walter
Kennedy fined the Atlanta Hawks
$25,000 and the Hawks responded wi?'i
an anti-trust suit.
The suit asks for an injunction against
Kennedy and the NBA so that Erving
may remain with the Hawks. A
preliminary hearing on the injuction will
be heard in Atlanta Friday morning by
U.S. District Judge Richard Freeman.
Erving is the former University of -Massachusetts
basketball star who played.,
last season with the Virginia Squires of
the American Basketball Association,
then signed a $ 1 million contract with the
Hawks a couple of days before the
Milwaukee Bucks made him their
first-round choice in the annual NBA

Kennedy had instructed the Hawks and
Bucks to get together and work out an
agreement regarding Erving. But when the
Hawks refused to meet the Bucks asking
price for compensation, the matter went
before the NBA Board of Governors
which awarded Erving to the Bucks.
cc The Hawks refusing to accept the
Board's ruling, kept Erving and used him
Saturday and Sunday in games with the
Kentucky Colonels.

A letter appeared in Saturday's edition
of the DTH claiming that UNC
sophomore defensive tackle Ronnie
Robinson wasn't mentioned once during
the paper's series of preseason football.
Furthermore, the letter's author said that
Robinson was ignored because he
happens to be black.
The letter was signed by a D. Lester
Diggs, who sounds like a very poor Dr.
Pallbearer pun. And D. Lester must have
been watching horror movies on Friday,
September 8, when the DTH lead sports
story concerned Carolina's prospects on
the defensive line.
Included in the story were two
paragraphs about Ronnie Robinson, who
got as much ink as the four.. probable
starters on the defensive line. References
were made to Robinson's size (6-2, 250),
his speed and the fact that he was sure to
see plenty of action whether he started or
not.
The story failed to mention that
Robinson was black.
"What letter?" was Robinson's
reaction when asked about it after
Carolina's 3433 win over State
Saturday.
"I don't think I deserve any extra
attention," he added. "I'm sure not
asking for any. I never worry about things
like that."
Which just goes to show that some
people don't believe everything they
don't read.
HOW HIGH? - Remember when
State's Tommy Burleson was caught
breaking into pinball machines in a State
dorm? Ever wonder how he figured to get
away with it? After all, how many skinny
7-4 young men are there in the city of
Raleigh?
Well, the same thing goes for 7-foot-2
Atlanta Hawk center Tom Payne, who
won't be playing much basketball for the
next month or two. Payne is standing
tria1 r -barges of raping th: worr
and has been indicted on at least four
other attempted rape charges.
Because of his unusual height, police
decided that it was only fair to Payne to
even things up. So they showed the three
women a group of photographs, with
Payne's : among them. More than one of
them - must .have picked out Payne,
be'cause police decided to arrest him
following the picture session.
And the lineup? Well, detectives had
everybody in the lineup sit at a table,
with persons shorter than Payne sitting
on telephone directories.
Police didn't say how it came out, but
from Warner Bros,
a Warner Communications company
Payne reportedly didn't even have to
slump.
PISTOL-WHIPPED - Pete Maravich
has been known to dribble and pass
basketballs through and around almost
anything. But when Pistol tried to ram his
head through the elbow of teammate Jim
Washington during an Atlanta Hawk
practice session last week, the elbow won
out.
Maravich fell to the floor as blood
poured freely from his right eyelid.
Teammates took him to a nearby
hospital, where it took seven stitches to
close the wound.
But Pistol reported back to practice
bright and early the very next day.
Observers said he appeared to be playing
normally and was shooting "very well."
Maybe the Hawks ought to offer
Washington a bonus for service beyond
Student-faculty day
The Intramural Office will sponsor a
Student-Faculty Playday Friday, October
6.
The competition will consist of twelve
events, with everything from horseshoes
to golf and women's volleyball.
Points will be awarded the winning
team and a trophy will be given to either
the faculty or the students and kept in
the Woollen Gym trophy case. The
Intramural Office hopes to make the
Student-Faculty competition an annual
event.
AFTER TWO WEEKS of play,
Residence Hall football is establishing a
familiar pattern, a struggle for the top
between Avery, Ehringhaus A, and
Teague.
The Avery Hounds opened their season
last week with convincing wins over Old
East and Old West by margins of 50-0 and
59-0. Ehringhaus A, the defending
Residence Hall champions, had little
trouble disposing of the Avery Aces, as
they rolled up a 54-0 win.

COACH DICK Richard Nixon issued
a proclamation last week designating
October 6 as National Coaches Day.
"Coaches are highly qualified teachers
in highly specialized fields' the
proclamation said. "But more than that,
they are friends and counselors who help
to instill in their charges important
attitudes that will serve them all their
lives.
"I know from my own experience how
much an understanding coach can do to
shape the life of a young person."
Nixon was a third string end at
Whittier College in California. Now he's a
first string inventor of pro football plays
and a personal buddy of many college
and pro football coaches.
But no one knows whatever happened
to Nixon's college coach.
