Crum had warned all those bitter skeptics of the Tar Heels' lightweight schedule that Rex Dockery's MSU Tigers would not be a pushover. He warned those who thought that the Tigers' 37-17 opening day romp over Mississippi was a fluke. He warn ed the people who thought this Saturday would be another big party in Kenan Stadium. Perhaps Crum opted to avoid that remark because he knew that, after a 10-10 halftime tie, everyone would realize exactly what he had been talking about. "It's hard to prepare for someone you've never played be fore," he said moments after the Tar Heels 24-10 win. "Their kids played real hard -and stayed right with us. They took ad vantage of some opportunities we gave them and did a good job." Tar Heel tailback Ethan Horton reflected his coach's senti ments. "We knew they'd be up for us," Horton said. "We saw them on the films, and they looked like a quick team. Their de fense played four quarters." Horton should know. After all, it was he who bore the bur den of the Tar Heel attack during a second half that, with few exceptions, was a defensive struggle. Horton's 137 yards (117 in the second half) was the cog that kept UNC on line during the crucial drives. "I knew we'd have to run a little harder and break a few more tackles," he added. "Our offense was down a little at halftime because we missed a couple of chances when we should have i scored." Horton broke loose for two touchdowns in the 90-plus degree heat, including the one that put it away at 12:55 of the final , quarter on a 22-yard scamper down the left sideline. "That was a play off to the right side, and as I got the ball, I let the play develop in front of me and saw the defensive front shift right. So, I shifted back inside, got a block, and was gone Horton was able to make that move cutting back left against the grain numerous times in the second half, as the young MSU line consistently overpursued the ball. Horton, now the established starter at tailback over senior Tyrone Anthony, could not explain why he carried the ball only seven times in the first half for just 20 yards. "The coach tells us to go as long as we can go," he said. "I know I'm the starter, so I'll come out whenever they send Tyrone in. When one of us comes out, we know it's just for a breather because we'll be right back in." Crum summed the running-back situation in a humorous vein. "We'll just be going along there, and we'll turn around and ask who wants to play." That might just be as good a strategy as any, because if there is one area the Tar Heels can rely on, it is in the backfield. In ad dition to Horton and Anthony (17 carries, 54 yards), junior fullback Eddie Colson (12 carries, 63 yards) and third-stringer William Humes (11 carries, 40 yards) also showed their muscle.

Sunday's level 53.5 inches below full CONSUMPTION LEVEL SATURDAY, SEPT. 10 6.7 million gallons pumped from University Lake 1.5 million gallons purchased from Hillsborough The Associated Press BEIRUT, Lebanon U.S. and British jets roared over Beirut in a show of force Sunday as mortar shells struck Marine positions near the airport, and Christian Druse fighting was reported spreading south from the Chouf mountains. The Lebanese army reported fierce overnight battles for the key mountain town of Souk el Gharb, some five miles southeast of Beirut; where leftist Druse and rightist Christian militias have been locked in bloody fighting for more than a week. The Christian militia said it has turned over several captured villages in the area to the Lebanese army, which failed to enter the region when Israeli troops withdrew two weeks ago. As soon as the Israelis pulled back to southern Lebanon, intense fighting broke out between the Christians and Druse. British Buccaneer fighter jets roared low over the capital to support the British, French, Italian and American peacekeep ing forces, while a Marine spokesman said U.S. F-14 Tomcat fighters flew "recon naissance missions" over the capital and the nearby mountains. The 1,200-man Marine contingent scrambled into bunkers when two mortar rounds struck, but the shelling eased after ""ah hour. No injuries were reported. At least a dozen shells fell between the U.S. bunkers and a nearby Lebanese army emplacement, which began returning fire. Lebanon's state-run radio reported in tense artillery exchanges between militia men in several villages south of the Chouf indicating a possible plan by the Druse to sweep south of the Lebanese army and Christian militia positions along the Souk el-Gharb mountain ridge to the Mediterra nean Sea. A Druse spokesman in Beirut said Druse militia units had reached villages on ly 400 yards east of the coast. As the fighting spread south, hundreds of Christians and Moslem refugees fled in to Israeli-occupied southern Lebanon, say ing they were fleeing bombardments from the Chouf ranges. A Lebanese army communique said two Lebanese soldiers and at least two Palesti nian guerrillas were killed in the fighting around Souk el Gharb. But Western military sources said a U.S.-trained Lebanese unit, considered the best in the Lebanese army, was overrun in the battle. Fourteen Lebanese soldiers were killed, 28 wounded and 28 others were missing in the fierce hand-to-hand fighting, they added. The Israeli army command, meanwhile, said it has sent patrols north of its new defense lines along the Awali River in southern Lebanon. One patrol of four Is raeli tanks and eight armored personnel carriers reached Lebanon's main power station at Jiyeh, just 10 miles south of Beirut. Israeli radio quoted Defense Minister Moshe Arens as telling a Cabinet meeting Sunday that Israeli soldiers could push for ward from their defense line to strike at Palestinian guerrillas. "Our forces will hit at the terrorists across the Awali line but will not intervene in the fighting in the Chouf mountains and will not return there," Arens reportedly said. Israel withdrew from the Chouf range to the Awali River to reduce steady Israeli casualties and shorten vulnerable supply lines. The move was also aimed at quelling domestic criticism of the government. In Beirut, Western military sources said both Christian and the Syrian-back Druse militias were wearing down after a week of fierce fighting, but added the Druse were receiving support from Palestinian fighters and others. Sources also said the Red Cross had "frozen" efforts to reach the embattled Chouf mountain town of Deir al-Kamar, where an estimated 25,000 to 30,000 Chris tian refugees are surrounded by Druse forces. Druse militiamen have denied the Red Cross access to the town for the past week, although Druse leader Walid Jumblatt has promised not to attack the town. Jumblatt told ABC news he seeks only "peace and political compromise" in the Lebanon conflict. See LEBANON on page 4 G quotas at UNC subject of suit By MARK STINNEFORD Staff Writer UNC is the battleground for a continuing debate whether quotas are an acceptable way to represent minorities. A nine-year old reverse-discrimination suit against the Univer sity has been a showdown between classic arguments on both sides of the issue. The suit challenges provisions guaranteeing minority representation on the Campus Governing Council and in the student judicial system. The latest round in the fight ended last week as testimony concluded in U.S. District Court in Durham. Judge Frank Bullock is not expected to issue a decision for at least a month. Jim Fuller, an attorney for students assisting in the Universi ty's defense, said the minority representation guarantees are necessary to overcome the lingering effects of segregation. Segregation was imposed by law at the University for more than 100 years and was ended only by court order, he said. "One of the issues is to what extent that we are and have been affected by the vestiges of past discrimination," he said. "Pro gress has made us forget how pervasive discrimination was not very long ago." But Donald Elmore, the current plaintiff, said the guarantees place an unfair burden on students who had nothing to do with segregation. "I realize how things were years and years ago," Elmore said. "That was terrible. But I don't see why people today should have to make up for things they were not responsible for. There's no reason we should pay." The suit was filed in June 1974 by Lawrence Uzzell and Robert Lane Arlington, then students at UNC, and has been sustained by a series of "intervening plaintiffs." Elmore, a senior from Gastonia, said he took on the case at the request of friends, whom he declined to identify. One of the challenged provisions requires that the Campus Governing Council have at least two minority members. The Student Body President must appoint minorities to the CGC if the requirement is not met during elections. CGC Speaker James Exum said the requirement is necessary to ensure the council makes responsible decisions. "There's a definite need to get information from all perspec tives when a decision will affect the entire student body," Exum said. "That means we need the perspectives of blacks, women, whites and as many groups that come from the student body." But Elmore said that race alone was not an adequate quali fication for appointment. See SUIT on page 3 Three lacrosse players arrested for assault Carrbbro to consider task force proposals By DOUG TATE Staff Writer The Carrboro Board of Aldermen will consider recommenda tions of the Carrboro Water Quality Task Force at a public hear ing Tuesday night concerning the University Lake watershed. The public hearing, scheduled for 7:30 p.m. at the Carrboro Town Hall, follows a 2Vi year study by the task force to formu late specific regulations for the development in the watershed. The recommendations of the task force include graduation of density of residential development, limitation of commercial and industrial development, definition and restriction on hazar dous substances, and preservation of natural buffers. Former Alderman Doug Sharer sees water quality as a vital community 'issue. "The potential of degredation of the water supply is such that the water will not be usable in a decade," Sharer said. Sharer is a member of Citizens for Clean Water, an ad hoc group concerned about water quality. He announced three weeks ago that he would not run for election to the board in November. University Lake is the main source of water for the Chapel Hill-Carrboro area. The town of Carrboro controls 70 percent of the lake's shoreline, and therefore, plays a major role in the protection of the water's quality. Sharer sites the lack of a plan for development around the watershed as a major water quality problem. "Development, erosion and disturbing of the land will in the short run decrease the quality and in the long run increase sedi mentation and decrease quantity of water," he said. Sharer also said that development pressure is not intense but will be in the near future. Alderman Steve Rose, chairman of the task force, could not be reached for comment. See OWASA on page 4 By SCOTT WHARTON and STUART TONKIN SON Staff Writer Three UNC lacrosse players were ar rested early Friday morning on charges of assaulting a Chapel Hill woman. Thomas B. Voelkel, 21, of K-3 Tar Heel Manor; Edward Steidle II, 21, of 102-E Bolinwood Apartments; and Keith J. Braddish, 22, of K-l Tar Heel Manor were arrested at 1 :01 a.m. in the 500 block of East Rosemary Street, according to police reports. Voelkel, Steidle and Braddish were re leased Friday morning on an unsecured bond of $200 each. A trial for the three was set for Oct. 20 in Chapel Hill District Court. Betty B. Sanders, of 504-A North St., said Sunday that she was verbally abused and pushed on a rock wall -by three students when she went to complain about the noise created by the 30-hour party at Delta Upsilon fraternity. Sanders said that the students got angry at her complaints and assaulted her. Police witnessed the incident, she added. She said she had never met the three before. UNC lacrosse coach Willie Scroggs said in a telephone interview Friday afternoon that he was not yet aware of the incident. "I can't possibly make a comment until I know more," he said. "I am sure, as with everything, there are two sides to this." He would not say whether disciplinary action would take place. Steidle refused comment Sunday. Voel kel and Braddish were out of town for the weekend and could not be reached. The incident Friday morning was not the first involving lacrosse players, said Art Chanskv. co-ownrr rf Frmr Con" Hrs- taurant. Chansky, a sportscaster for WCHL, said that in May 1981 he took out a warrant for the arrest of a UNC lacrosse player. The player "jumped up onto the bar, ran down it and jumped off," Chan sky said. "He just broke a couple of glasses but he really scared people. Some one could have been hurt." Following the incident Chansky said that he met with Scroggs and UNC Ath letic Director John Swofford and worked out an agreement that banned all lacrosse players from entering the restaurant again. Charges against the player were subse quently dropped. Prior to that incident, Chansky said he had received about six complaints from employees about lacrosse players. "I will say that I think the lacrosse team's record speaks for itself, on and off the field," he said.
