The offensive team includes quarterback Rod Elkins, tailback Kelvin Bryant and guard Dave Drechsler, while the defense includes defensive end Calvin Daniels and linebacker Darrell Nicholson.

Defensive standouts returning are Nicholson and Duke defensive back Dennis Tabron. Wake Forest receiver Wayne Baum gardner was an all-conference choice as a sophomore in 1979, but was beaten out by Tuttle for the honor last fall.

The changes were announced to the Atlantic Coast Conference at the annual . coaches and media weekend in Southern Pines July 31. The new crowd noise policy is rule 3-3-3, which reads, in part: "If the clock has been stopped twice during ,the game for crowd noise viola tions against the same team, any subse quent stopping of the clock because of crowd noise violations against the same team will result in a charged time out or a delay penalty if all offending team's time outs have been used." The change in the rule is the "in the game" phrase. In past years, two viola tions in one series of downs were required to set up a potential penalty situation. TheTrule'was tightened Tn CfespwisjeTd" CToWd'nbiseaf 'a number sfadfums throughout the country, with Qemson being the most notable ACC example. Carolina has avoided any penalties under the old rule, and assistant coach Chuck Priefer said he did not expect any problems with the new rule. "Our fans are a little better behaved, even though (crowds are) just as large. I'm sure our fans will behave themselves.". Another change is simple but will be im mediately noticeable the box-and-chain first down measuring sticks will be moved six feet behind the sideline rather than directly on it. That change was made in response to the danger of injury involved with having the sticks and chains so close to the action. The overlay vest-type jerseys worn by players on special teams have been out lawed. The jerseys were worn by players who switched from eligible receivers to in eligible, or vice-versa, for special teams The change was for safety reasons, and Ibeiaeeveral players across the country last year'tuHhe jerseys on backwards. Priefer said Carolina had ordered spe cial jerseys in response to the rule. 'The : new jerseys will have long slits in the top so that they may be put on quickly by players for the punting team; . .. - Priefer, who coaches special teams,, said he favored the new rule, even though his punt teams were known for getting on the field quickly and catching opponents off guard. Uniform number changes have to be accomplished quickly to facilitate that. . "I see what (the NCAA is) trying to do," Priefer said. "The pullover jerseys were flapping, shoulder pads were flap ping. It's going to be safer this year." Another rule change may prove to be the bane of referees' existences. Officials are now obligated to go to the sideline for a conference with the head coach if the conference is requested by a player ac tually in the game or by the coach. : Officials have not had that obligation in The rule does have a string attached, though: If the coach uses the conference to argue an official's call, and the call is not overruled, the coach's team is charg ed with a time out. '(O : Or, if the team is out of time Ctfts; a five-yard penalty is assessed. :'"? 'The NCAA has, in 1981, followed the lead of professional football by reducing the holding penalty to 10 yards. The Na tional Football League reduced the:penal ty a few seasons ago. , : . v. -. Pass blocking rules have also beentte vised. A lineman executing a retreafblock must have his hands open with the palms . facing the frame of his opponents' body. That change is designed to eliminate jersey-grabbing by offensive linemen. 4 'Also, after a foul' by the defense, dur ing the last 25 seconds of either half, the clock will start on the snap." On offense the clock will start earlier, when players set in position for the play.

Apparently, the Tar Heel football team 1981 Bluebonnet Bowl Champions does not need any ticket promotions. Kenan Stadium has been sold out for months. Carolina Fever is still alive, however, just simply reduced. Savod is now getting some television and radio commercials ready for airing lest people forget about UNC football. . It was not always a question of remind ing folks about the Tar Heels it used to be a problem just generating any interest at all. In 1975, only one game was sold out and attendance averaged only about 35,000. Savod began his promotions in 1976, and since 1977, Kenan has been sold out for every game. The Carolina Fever pitch utilized a total approach in advertising. Radio and tele vision spots were perhaps the most visible, but direct mail and newspaper advertising were also used extensively. Billboards were displayed prominently in many large North Carolina cities. Bumper stickers from the ; campaign are still popular. Savod recognizes the fact that the need for such a huge effort may come again in ; the next few years. "Obviously, team success will have a lot to do with it," Savod said. "Our pre- No Butts About It...

Savod hopes now to bring a new market to Carolina football by arranging for some Tar Heel games to be broadcast on a de layed basis in the area. ' "We hope to start with one station and then expand," he said. "We have access to cable stations in Chapel Hill and we'll be able to program many of our sports on a delayed basis. Then, we hope to be able to market these games in other areas." . Though the promotions up to now have been used 6nly for football, Savod plans some sort of campaign for the non-revenue sports as well. He is thinking of using ad vertising, schedule, cards,, billboards and some directmail. ( "We are" also considering trying ah all sports ticket that could be used for the 24 sports besides basketball and football," Savod said.' : - ' c v -; For now, though; the familiar Carolina Fever commercials featuring the voice of Woody DiirhanPWill be limited.
