10 The Daily Tar Heel Thursday, April 27, 1978 5 i 1 Coach and players Although the public dispute between UNC lacrosse coach Paul Doty (left) ended six weeks ago when he offered reinstatement to the players he earlier dismissed, troubles still simmer. Doty notes the change in his relationship with his players, while Joe Yevoli (42 at right) and Randy Gilbert (hugging Yevoli) say morale problems are still severe. Staff photos by Scott Johnston. I ?

Power does affect dynamic range. What's dynamic range? Simply put, it's the difference between the quietest part of the music and the loudest part of the song. (Thundering bass and heavy guitars.) You hear a very wide dynamic range at a live concert, and that's good. Most stereo systems can't reproduce the dynamic range of a live performance. So you don't hear 'full bodied' music. Why? One watt per channel will give you a comfortable listening level in most situations, situations. In order to reproduce that one watt of music accurately, the amplifier must have an ample reservoir of power. The larger the back up supply of power that an amplifier has to work with, the cleaner, and more dynamic the music will sound. Cymbals will crash, brass will bite, drums will kick. Every time you double your power level the dynamic range of your system increases and that means better sound. HARVEY'S DELIVERS VALUE!

Great prices 'It's broken our backs' Lacrosse dispute technically over, but problems remain for Tar Heels By FRANK SNYDER Staff Writer Six weeks ago the UNC lacrosse team was involved in a player-coach dispute that threatened the existence of the team for the rest of the spring. The players weren't satisfied with the job head coach Paul Doty and his assistants were doing. Doty said some of the players had "negative attitudes." The dispute was publicized, and lacrosse fans saw a series of negotiations fail, options dropped, and finally 13 players were dismissed. Technically, the dispute ended when all but two of those players returned to the team a day later. Lacrosse was lacrosse again and coaches and players returned to business. That was six weeks ago. Since then, the Tar Heels have won five of their last seven games, losing to Maryland and Hofstra, and currently are ranked ninth in the nation. Although their playoff hopes are still alive, Carolina must win its final two games against N .C. State (ranked No. 1 2), Saturday in Raleigh and Navy (No. 4) May 1 3 in Chapel Hill, in order to be considered for an NCAA playoff bid. That kind of pressure was not expected this season; the Tar Heels felt confident of an NCAA bid. They set their goals higher like a national championship. That was before the team realized, however, that a dispute was inevitable. "1 saw what was going on," attackman Joe Yevoli said. "1 felt that he (Doty) was hurting too many people, and that something needed to be done." As a result, the players voiced their grievances against Doty with the hopes that some kind of change would be made. However, since the dispute, things have not improved, and the kind of unity that is needed for a national championship in lacrosse is desperately lacking on the Tar Heel squad. According to the players, the frustration is still there. In fact, the gap between players and coaches has grown even wider. To date, four more players Bret Steidle, Dave Yingling, Mike Melamerson, and Bob Volker have either voluntarily withdrawn themselves or been dismissed from the team, in addition to the original two Marty Sutton and Chuck Wenzell who chose not to return. Wenzell, a freshman defenseman, would like to play next year, but only if a change is made. "If there is not a new coach here, then I'm gone I'm transferring," he said. Melamerson, also a freshman, feels the same: "I don't hold any personal grudges against Doty, but 1 certainly couldn't play for him next year. I don't respect the man." That leaves Carolina with a current roster --of 29 players, who all have been hurt in some way by the dispute. "It's broken our backs," Yevoli said. "We were looking forward to a great season, and now this happens. It's really hard to get into games." Middie Randy Gilbert, a tri-captain, feels that the emotion against Doty has intensified since the dispute. "It's hurt our concentration," he said. "There's not as much enthusiasm anymore." The players aren't the only ones to have been affected by the dispute, however. Doty -A. '7 Sports Men's golf In Southern Intercollegiate In Athene, Ga. Women't tottball at home vs. ECU, UNC-Q. 2 p.m. Baseball at home vs. Wilmington. 2 p.m. cites the dramatic change in his relationships with players whom he once considered his friends. "It's very disappointing that people you thought you knew you didn't," he said. "It's affected my relationship with everybody on the team," he said. "I hold more respect for some of the players the way they handled themselves in the situation. For others less." As a coach to his players on the field. Doty Analysis said that he conducts his practices in a much more "businesslike, professional" manner than before the dispute. "I am no longer as friendly," he said. "There's not the fun that there used to be." Consequently, the scars of the dispute are slow in healing, and a "cold war" atmosphere continues to exist. "I think everyone's let their personal feelings affect they way they reacted to the situation," Gilbert said, "especially the coaches, by kicking the players off. It wasn't a personal thing to begin with, but it has become so." "The way it is now, no one is playing for the coaches at all," Yingling said, who voluntarily withdrew from the team two weeks ago. "They're doing it for themselves." Among the players, there is no longer the tension that forced a split for and against Doty during the dispute. "All the players that were really discontented are no longer on the team," Gilbert said. "I think the rest of us just want to win as many games as we can and get the whole thing over with." Thus, the season continues for Carolina not necessarily in dismal fashion, but certainly far short of preseason expectations. As for the future, no one is sure what will happen. Rumors circulate from day to day in akctqinc fmm a Affinity ztpnwiMV.Pl olfxt nnul According to several of the players, however, there is only one choice to make. "I think he'd (Doty) be smart to resign," Yevoli said. "The situation here the discontent will be the same next year unless Doty is gone." Gilbert agrees: "I don't feel Doty has the ability to coach a major college team. He doesn't command respect, he doesn't administer discipline, and he doesn't know how to motivate his playejs."
