The Daily Tar Heel Friday, January 23, 19877 Weekend mMlh Cemteff coeteste By DAVID HALL Staff Writer Depressed over the cold winter weather? Or are you itching to do more than get drunk and catch a nosebleed while watching the men's basketball game against Tech? This Saturday's smorgasbord of Tar Heel sports action can help cure the w inter blues. The action starts at 8 a.m. as the men's and women's fencing entour age travels to Duke to take on the squads from Wofford, Fairleigh Dickinson and the much hated teams from N.C. State and Duke. The men are led by sabre fencer Carl Elmore and freshman sensation Pete Farqu har. while the women are headed by the brilliant Ail-American Nhi Le. Meanwhile, back in Chapel Hill, the Tar Heel men's and women's track teams inaugurate their home schedule by engaging in a dual meet against the Bulldogs from Georgia. (Remember Jan Kemp?) The com petition will take place at the sparkling Hilton Indoor Track Complex, adjacent to Fetzer Field, at high noon. The men feature the talented sophomore Brad Sullivan, who already has qualified for the NCAA Championships in the 60 yard dash, while the women are led bv freshman track goddess Mia Pollard. If, however, you feel it's too cold for track, then you can hop on over to Carmichael Auditorium for a gymnastics meet. The Tar Heels will be hosting teams from State and George Mason University. North Carolina, coming off of its season opening drubbing of James Madi son, is headed by 4-ll junior Ail American Stacy Kaplan of Roches ter, New York. The fun and festiv ities begin at I p.m. At 2 p.m., the North Carolina women's basketball squad will engage in a battle with the Yellow Jackets from Georgia Tech. UNC's balanced attack is led by center Dawn Royster while Georgia Tech features its leviathan All-ACC cen- Ticket disMbution imperfect By PHYLLIS A. FAIR Staff Writer You can please some of the people all of the time and all of the people some of the time, but you can never please student basketball goers at UNC. : r, "' ' "; Lately many students have expressed their dissatisfaction with the present basketball ticket distri bution system, saying that it is not fair, said Mark Pavao, president of the Carolina Athletic Association. Pavao said the CAA's goal was to create a policy that would be the most convenient for most of the student body. "We realize that we're not going to please everyone, but our aim is to please as many people as possible. . "1 think the policy as it stands now, I'm talking about the physical policy, is the best policy I've seen in the last four years that I've been here," he said. In the present policy, student tickets are distributed on Mondays beginning at 6:30 a.m. The tickets are randomly distributed, meaning that a student who camps out for tickets has no advantage except an assurance of receiving one of the 7,500 CHECK student tickets allocated. Some students disagree with Pavao's assessment. "1 think getting tickets on Mondays is a crock," said Derrick Cole, a junior computer science major from Charlotte. "This policy isn't structured right. The old policy first-come first-serve for the lower level and random upper level is better. "The fans who are really dedicated to the sport are the ones who should get the good seats," he said. "The first system was great." Michael Hauser, a third-year law student and a ticket distributor from Tobaccoville, said he liked the present system. It was better than having to wait up all night to get tickets, and "one's dedication isn't commensurate to staying up all night." Although Hauser likes this system better, he said he didn't like getting up early in order to distribute the tickets at 6:30. Some students suggested that distribution should return to the weekends. "There is a conflict with some students with classes," said Mike Harris, a junior education major from Henderson. "I don't think there would be a conflict if it was on the weekends," he said. Several students seemed pleased with the new system, because it allows students to have more time and days to go get tickets, and they don't have to wait in long lines like they did in the past to get tickets. "I think it's better than the system wc had last year, because we don't have to camp out for tickets," said Valerie Williams, a sophomore political science major from Warsaw. "The time period is good," she said. "They need to leave the system like it is."

This game will mark the second time that the women will play in the immaculate "House that Dean Built," so plenty of good seats will be available. Be there or be square or, if you're Huey Lewis, be hip. The climax of this great day in Tar Heel athletic lore will occur, naturally, with the men's basketball game against 9-5 Georgia Tech.

Louise Hines, 23, a fifth-year senior who served as an assistant to coach Karen Shelton-Scroggs in 1986, will play for the U.S. National team. Hines was a two-time All- the system's random distribution was actually that. "I don't like the distribution because it doesn't seem to be really random," said Jill Hershman, a senior psychology major from Reidsyille. ; "The wayT they did it in Carmichael was a lot more fair, where the tickets were in the pockets and you couldn't see the tickets," she said. "Separating the tickets beforehand is more random than it is now." According to Pavao, however, all of the tickets except for the buffer zone ones are random. The first thing the ticket office does is set aside the number of tickets that will go in the blocks and randomly mix the upper and lower-level tickets. All remaining tickets are then grouped either in fours, sixes, or twos, put into envelopes and thrown into the air to obtain a random distribution, he said.

"We knew we had a job to do and we just did it better in the second half." Jeff Lebo and Dave Popson contributed 14 and 12 points, respec tively, to the UNC effort, nullifying a 22-point performance by Wake's talented freshman Sam Ivy. The Tar Heels leading-scorer Kenny Smith had only three points, but held Deacon point guard Tyrone "Mug gsy" Bogues to two points, 12 below his average, on l-for-10 shooting. "It seemed like Muggsy and I had the same assignment," Smith said. "We were just to keep each other out of the game and let the rest play 4-on-4." Bogues did have 15 assists, how ever, and as always was the waterbug that skirted through and around the UNC defense. "We probably could have beaten another team tonight, but this was Carolina," Bogues said. Wake was still in the game with 10 minutes left, only down 55-47. But Lebo hit a three-point play, Wolf followed a missed shot and Lebo drilled one from the top of the key to give UNC a 15-point lead, 62-47. Wake only scored six points in the last 10:40, and Dean Smith's human victory cigar, Marty Hensley, even hit a 1 5-footer for the Tar Heels' final points. "I thought we played an excellent game for 20 minutes," Deacon coach Bob Staak said.

Well give him an honorable mention for tying the UNC freshman scoring record of 31 points Sunday against N.C. State. But the honoree in this installment of the UNCAOTW is on the verge of a more impressive record. Al Palacio, the nation's top-ranked wrestler in the U8-lb. division is only two wins shy of an ACC record for career victories. Palacio is 29-0 this season, bringing his collegiate record to 1 10-17-3. Clemson's Greg Snyder compiled 1 12 wins in his career. Also, Palacio, along with team mate Rob Roll, has been selected to compete later in the year in the National Wrestling Coaches Associ ation All-Star Classic, which features the best wrestlers from each "coast in an East vs. West matchup.
