The record r^ads eight wins and one loss with a 3-0 conference record. Opponents have found the Hurricanes a stingy crew that gives up points begruddingly as they use a variety of de fensive measures to hold their opposition at bay. Only three times in nine games have the 'Canes allowed as many as 80 points in a game, one a 94-87 opening victory over South eastern Community College; a second in a 113-83 romp over Chesapeake College; and the third in a 103-81 return en gagement with Southeastern. Often they have held their opponents far below their scoring average for the sea son. j . The 'Canes have several players who have shared in this defensive assault. George Bowden. Larry Paschall. and John Lewis put on a dazzling display of thievery and forced b?Jl handling errors in a game at Chowan. -The result, an 83-77 win over the Braves who are averaging 94 points r per game for the season. Pas chall, Bowden. Bob Walker and Sandy Frazier made life miserable for Southwood's Rams holding them to 52 points. 22 under their sea son's average. Wingate's Bull dogs, averaging 79 points per game on the year, managed 59 against the 'Canes as John Kinlaw joined with Paschall, Walker and Lewis in a second half assault that sent the Bull dogs reeling." Add to this Mt. Olive's 75 points as opposed to a sea son's average of 88 points per game: Chesapeake 83 as com-' pared to their 98 point aver age per game; and Brevard 67, seven off their pace of 74 per game and its safe to conclude that the 'Canes are playing for keeps this year.. > Dick Driver and Terry Davis have added cohesion to the 'Canes defensive play with their ability to grab the ball off the boards, clog up the middle and intercept er rant passes. Davis has leaped to block numerous shot at tempts and his quickness has led to many turnovers for opponents when he has been called upon to put the pres sure on an opponent away I6A SAVE YOUR TAPE GAME - No Purchase Necessary. $C * * FOR YOU + * V EACH WEEK.

Singling out individal efforts, F razier held Soothwood's Gary Van Camp ? 17 point average to seven points, and the 6'3" product from North em Nash came off the bench to hold Dennis "Pierce, Mt. Olive's ace with a 28 point per game average to only four points during the middle half of the game. Paschall held Billy Lee. another Mt. Olive bomber with a 22 point per game average, to 7 points until late in the game when the outcome was no longer in doubt. Paschall. Bowden. Walker. Frazier and Lewis get as much enjoyment out of steal ing the ball from an opponent as most players get out of stuffing it in the loop and it all adds up to an exciting team to the partisons and a frustrating experience for the opponents.

The 'Canes built their lead steadily in the second half and led by eleven with 10:40 to go. The lead went as much as 13 at 55-42 with 8:57 to play before a seven point spurt by Wingate made the score 55-49 with -7:10 to go. Dick Driver and John Lewis hit consecutive field goals for the' 'Canes to push their lead to ten at 59-49. The two teams matched baskets the rest of the way. Larry Paschal I. hitting on 5 of. 8 first half field goal attempts led the Hurricanes scoring with 15 points. Terry Davis had 13 and George Bowden 11. Driver and Bob Walker had 9 points each.

On Saturday night the Hurricanes rap into a Brevard team that was fired up. due to a previous one point loss to the 'Canes at Louisburg. and the result was an 82 54 defeat for the 'Canes. The 'Canes were plagued by turn overs. 32 for the game, as the fine Brevard team played very aggressively on defense. Brevard roared to a 37-25 halftime lead as they blistered the nets at a 5fr clip. Early in thtf second half Louisburg was able to keep the deficit from growing but could not keep up the pace and were down by twenty with ten minutes to go. Bob Walker scored 10 points to top the 'Canes scorers. PasohaU had nine points and John Lewis 8. Greg Headen and Joe Kagel shared honors for Brevard with 21 points each. The win ran Brevard's record to 8-3 and Louisburg is now 9-3 for the season. N. C. State Freshmen de feated Louisburg 89-59 last night in Holton Gym. The halftime score was 31-25 in favor of State but the shoot ing of Paul Coder. 18 points in the second half, and the rebounding of Coder and Rinaldo Louisa proned to much for the smaller Hurri canes. Louisa 6'8" forward con verted 6 offensive rebounds into baskets. two of them three point baskets in route to a 20 point production. Coder made an attempted, second half, comeback by the 'Canes insurmountable task by sinking?18 of his 27 points in the second half. He scored 14 points in the last 8 minutes after the 'Canes cen ter Dick Driver left the game with fouls. Larry Paschall led the 'Canes offensive with 22 points as he hit on 9 of 18 attempts from the floor and four of five from the foul line. Terry Davis chipped in* with'10 points but the 'Canes had a cold hand as they couljr hit only 23 of 69 atteprfHs Report On Bibby At UCLA I aIi I or * Note: The following article wrij Ion by (Multon Tudor in Prop St em', a regular sports feature of The Huleigh Times, was published last Saturday. It tells of Henry Ifibbv. out standing basketball player at H. /?'. I'erson- Albion lligh School at Franklinton. Henry Bibby 'finds himself at UCLA this winter avera ing 26.2 frosh points^ffer game rather than somewhere within the Atlantic Cqast Conference. / Which te/riot all that sur prising. WJrile at Pearson High in Fjamklinton, Henry hit the 1>ooks right hard and finished his prep academic work with slightly over a. B average. He also found time to participate in all campus athletics anjk various other school fu fic tions. When ScholastfexAptitude Test time rotted around, Bibby came up with ju&t un der th^rtiagic ACC 800 re quirement for an athletic nam-in-aid. Bibby went west, old men, and immediately zipped out an A, B, and three Cs in his first quarter's work at UCLA ? which isn't actually an academic pushover. "Henry was a devoted kid in high school", starts the contribution of his high school cage coach, James Fos ter. "He is the type of boy that only has to be shown something one or two times to completely catch on." Maybe in small, probably over-crowded, and likely under manned Pearson, Bibby didn't receive all the oppor' tunities to be shown certain scholastic principals that would be in his favor while taking the SAT. "I saw him at home over 'the Christmas holidays," con tinues Foster. "He spent the entire break either practicing basketball in his old gym or working on an English term paper. "He told me that if hard work and studying had any thing to do with success, then he'd make it. ?- - "Teaching, coaching, and pro basketball all loom in his future plans, now. He'll be able to do either of three well." It could be that the 800 rule is growing senile in its oW -age. The Bruins saw fit to give only two basketball scholar, ships last year. Which was a very, very intelligent move. Four- high school All-Ameri Old Story Revised Prodigal Son (just b&ck)~ Father, aren't you going to kill the fatted calf? Father (looking the fathead over) -No, I'll let you live, but I'm going to give you some work that'll take the fat off you. Where He Was Motorist,- rt'? not my fault. He wa^ crossing in the middle of the block. Policeman Don't tell me that. He's lying right here at the street intersection. Motorist - Well, he was in the middle of the block when, I hit him. cftrfs presently sitting on the ^XICLA bench has a tendency to depress prep prospects when considering a college which they might like to at tend. Bibby received one of the two scholarships, since the West Coast Athletic Associa tion puts more store on past achievements and future pos sibilities than most. The other Bruin grant went to a prepster from Uni versity High, about two miles from the UCLA campus. Coach of the Bruin fresh men, Gary Cunningham, reasons in a phone conversa tion that, "we needed guards for the future and I think we got the two best freshman backcourt players in the na tion this year. "One we found around the corner, so to speak, and the other, three thousand mil?s away. We had very little trouble in signing either of the two. "Bibby is about the finest all-around basketball player I've seen in my four years as frosh coach," praised Cunn ingham, a former Uclan star himself. "I think he'll start on the varsity next year and will likely engineer the offense. Coach John Wooden has men tioned that he wouldn't trade Bibby for any guard in the country. "Henry is the hardest worker we have on the team ? both in athletics and scho lastics. He'll be a great one." At 6-2, Bibby has been the game leader in both points scored and rebounds in four Brubabe games to date. He averages eight assists per game going into Monday's tilt with Los Angeles City College and plays the point on UCLA's 1-2 2 full-court press. "Bibby covers an unbelie vable amount of floor space." further stated Cunningham. "He's the first man to move oh oar defensive press and still leads' the team in re bounds with over 12 per con test." Bibby was signed in a lop sided two-college affair from Guilford by Jay Carty, part time UCLA assistant and NBAer with the Lakers. His name was turned into the Bruin basketball office tfy an alumnus in this area who may be getting an eyeful of sincere sub-dOOers this season also. . which speaks" for the UCLA organization and helps to write a chapter in the building of a cage dynasty. If the ACC should ask about Henry Bibby ? one that go( away ? tell them his 'ghost may be in -the area sometime in the next three years. DUE TO THE CENTRALIZATION OF COURTS HUBERT H.
