4 The Daily Tar Heel Monday, February 25, 1980 r ipite ot a U.S. hockey takes gold dc prevaiiig im D By TOM MOORE Staff Writer The Doc Watson concert Saturday night in Memorial Hall was a bit disappointing. Problems with the sound system marred the concert. Between, and often during songs, various pops, crackles, whirring sounds, feedback, and other assorted nuisances interrupted things and aggravated the audience. The technical difficulties upset Doc Watson quite a bit. too; this disturbance combined with the last stages of a cold caused his performance to be not quite as laid-back and folksy as usual. But it is really quite impossible for a Doc Watson performance to be unenjoyable, even with all the nerve wracking technical nuisances. If Doc wasn't chattering and joking as much as he usually does, his singing and playing were in top form. Doc and his band treated the audience to a fine smorgasbord of country tunes, mainly of the old-time variety. No group today performs these old-time country tunes with the same amount of agility and chutzpah as Doc Watson and his band. It's hard to pick outsanding numbers in the concert because all the tunes were equally wonderful. Doc's nimble guitar playing probably was at it's best in "Sweet Georgia Brown," which doc played through three times, each time picking the song at a faster hell breaking speed . At the end you couldn't believe that any human could move his fingers so damned fast. Between each song the crowd would holler out various requests to Doc. uPlay Tennessee Stud"; "Play Way Downtown"; "Play Doc's Guitar!" people yelled. Doc ignored them all, preferring to play lesser known songs from his repertoire like "Spike Driving Blues," "Don't This World Look Rough And Rocky," "Milk Cow Blues," and "Cuckoo." The picking and Doc's singing, on such tunes was mighty, mighty fine but failed to quiet the loudly voiced demands. Finally, Doc agreed to play "Tennessee Stud" but only if the audence agreed to remain quiet and not clap during the song. While Doc explained why he makes these demands a heckler interrupted with a bunch of drunken gibberish. "Yea son, I remember when I had my first beer too," Doc answered putting the heckler in his place. The show closed with a fine medley of old rock 'n' roll numbers - "Please, Please Love Me," "Blue Suede Shoes," "Tutti Fruitti, " and "Whole Lotta Shakin' Goin On" a big surprise coming from the master of countryfolk. On "Please, Please Love Me" and "Blue Suede Shoes" Doc did a slightly nasal, but otherwise passable imitation of Elvis Presley. . For the encore Doc came back alone. First he treated the audience to an imitation of a train by making Tweetsie-like chugging and whistling sounds on his harmonica. After finishing that Doc said, "We have two national anthems. One goes like this," and Doc played a bit of "The Star Spangled Banner"on the harmonica. "But I don't know it too well. The other goes like this," said Doc Watson before going into a rousing rendition of "Dixie" that brought out the foot-stomping redneck in even the most subdued audience member, and provided a nice ending to a somewhat disappointing concert.

The U.S. hockey team completed its quest for the gold medal Sunday, defeating Finland 4 2. Team captian Dave Eruzione and Mark Johnson scored third-period goals to break a 2-2 tie and lead the Americans to a successful completion of . their storybook quest for the gold. Another highlight of the weekend was a fifth gold medal for speed skater Eric Heiden. Heiden completed his sweep of the men's events by winning the 10,000 meters on Saturday in world-record time. Phil Mahre, leading after the first run of the slalom on Friday, took the silver medal after Sweden's Ingemar Stennmark overtook him on the second run. It was the first alpine skiing medal for the United States in the Lake Placid games. Figure skater Linda Fratianne, the defending world champion and favorite to take the gold medal in the women's event, finished second behind Annet Poetzsch of East Germany. Poetzsch became the first East German to win a gold metal in figure skating. On Friday night, Charles Tickner of the United States won the bronze medal in the men's figure skating. Robin Cousins of Great Britain took the gold. Ski jumper Jim Denney finished eighth in the 90-meter jumping, a disappointing finish for the American who was considered a possible medal threat in the event.
