Jury Indicts Henley for
Plotting to Murder Judge
LOS ANGELES A federal grand
jury Tuesday accused former Los Angeles
Rams comeiback Darryl Henley of con
spiring to murder the judge who convicted
him of smuggling cocaine and the cheer
leader girlfriend who testified against him.
Henley, 29, was accused of trying to put
together cocaine and heroin deals from his
jail cell to.finance the.contract killings for
SIOO,OOO apiece. He aM three others were
named in the 13-count indictment.
Henley is awaiting sentencing for co
caine smuggling.
Tracy Ann Donoho, his lover and Rams
cheerleader, told the jury he recruited her
to carry 25 pounds of cocaine to Atlanta,
where she was arrested in July 1993. Henley
was convicted in that case in March 1995.
Between April 23 and May 7, Henley
tried to put together a 25-pound cocaine
deal, then started negotiating a heroin deal
when that fell through. The suppliers in
both deals were undercover agents.
Co-conspirator Rodney Anderson
smuggled a cellular phone to Henley and
originally agreed to kill Donaho and an
other witness, but Henley changed his
mind, the indictment claims.
Instead, he arranged with an under
cover agent to kill Donoho and Judge Gary
Taylor, according to the charges.
Irvin's Indictment for
Drug Possession Stands
DALLAS A judge on Tuesday re
fused to throw out Michael Irvin’s indict
ment on felony drug possession.
Irvin, the Dallas Cowboys’ All-Pro re
ceiver, former teammate Alfredo Roberts,
Jasmine Nabwangu and Angela Renee
Beck were found in an Irving motel room
with drugs, police said after a March 4 raid.
A Dallas County grand jury on April 1
indicted Irvin and the women on cocaine
and marijuana possession charges. Irvin’s
trial is set to begin June 24.
Officer Matthew William Drumm testi
fied Irvin appeared under the influence of
“some substance” when Drumm and three
other police officers entered the room.
“His eyes were red and bloodshot and it
appeared to me he had an extreme case of
cottonmouth—dry mouth, ” Drumm said.
Two plates, including one found under
the love seat where Irvin was sitting and
another within inches of his elbow, con
tained loose cocaine and marijuana along
with drag paraphernalia.
Police found the other plate containing
loose cocaine on an end table near a razor
blade and two straws.

Major Leagues Claim Six Tar Heels in Draft
BY CRAIG KISER
ASSISTANT SPORTS EDITOR
Almost everyone can think backto child
hood and remember pretending to be a
professional athlete. Whether they were
playing stickball or a simple game of horse
with the kid next door didn’t matter. The
dream of competing at the highest level
was universal.
For a few members of North Carolina’s
baseball team, that dream is one step closer.
In the 1996 professional baseball draft,
two current Tar Heels and four incoming
recruits were selected into the ranks of the
major leagues. Junior pitcher Ethan Stein
was picked up in the 12th round by the
Kansas City Royals while senior Brian
Whitlock was selected in the 28th round by
the Cleveland Indians.
Stein said he didn’t expect the draft to
unfold as quickly as it did for him.
“I was really surprised to be drafted in
the position I was,” Stein said. “I expected
to be picked around the 30th round, so its
a big shock to me and I am very happy
about it.”
Both have signed contracts with their
respective clubs. This is the first step to a
Marge Schott/Albert Belle Duo
Make 1996 4 Year of the Viliam’
?he strike-shortened baseball season of
1994 was marked by the records that
could’ve fallen, such as Roger Maris’
single- season home ran mark.
The 1995 season centered on Cal Ripken
Jr., and his pursuit of Lou Gehrig’s record
of 2,130 consecutive games played.
This season is the year of the villain.
The bad guys have even elected a king
and queen this season Cleveland slug
ger Albert Belle and Cincinnati owner
Marge Schott.
Schott makes news because she can’t
keep her mouth shut. She started the sea
son with bang by questioning the post
ponement of the Reds’ season opener de
spite the fact that umpire John McSherry
had a heart attack on the field and died.
Other lowlights include pro-Hitler remarks
and insults towards various ethnic and
religious groups. Former manager Pete
Rose summed it up best when he said, “I
just don’t think she likes anybody.”
In the meantime, Belle continues to
match Schott disgrace-for-disgrace. Last

Bodyguard Keeps Close Watch on Cup
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
MIAMI—In a stirring finale, the Colo
rado Avalanche completed a four-game
sweep over the Florida Panthers.
Defenseman Uwe Krapp’s blast from
the right point at 4:31 of the third overtime,
gave Colorado a 1-0 victory.
Krupp’s clinching score brought a re
vered hockey icon to Denver—a 103-year
old icon that is fought overby grown men
for two months every spring.
The Stanley Cup. No sport but hockey
has a symbol like it, a link to its history and
tradition so impressive, so majestic. It
started out as a silver chalice valued at S4B,
but has become such a priceless artifact
that it can never be copied by another
sport, only envied.
But, symbolic of the sport it represents,
the Stanley Cup has had its share of hard
knocks and high sticks. So, last year, the
Hockey Hall ofFame hired Pat Plunkett to
be its bodyguard.

Some athletes will spend a short time in
the minor leagues and eventually be re
leased. Others will make a lifetime out of
playing for a farm team.
Regardless of the uncertainties, Stein
said he was excited about his prospects.
“I am fulfilling a childhood dream,”
Stein said. “I feel that outweighs playing
another year at UNC, even though I loved
my time here. I am just trying to move on
and see how I stack up against other play
ers at the professional level.”
UNC coach Mike Roberts said he was
happy with the way things went in this
year’s selection process.
“I’m pleased for them,” Roberts said.
“It is a compliment to the youngsters first
of all, and we’re proud that we could help
them develop into potential professional
players.”
He also said that he expects his players
to have a successful run at making baseball
a full-time occupation.
“These are good, mature players and
early in their career, they will do very
well,” Roberts said. “I think thatyou’ll see
a couple of them play in the majors.”

Headlining the list of incoming recruits
chosen in the draft is Brent Butler, chosen
in the third round by St. Louis. Roberts
said Butler has signed with the Cardinals.
The other prospects included pitchers
Kyle Snyder, Mike Bynum, and Paul Pop
lin, taken in the27th, 32ndand58th rounds,
respectively. Unlike Butler, Roberts said
he expected all of them to enroll at UNC.
Despite the disappointment of losing
Stein and Butler to die draft, Roberts said
he was glad they have the chance to play in
the major leagues.
“Asa coach, I want to help each stu
dent- athlete reach his goals, ” Roberts said.
“Most want to play pro ball. I’m pleased
for those who get the opportunity, but
losing both of them has a big effect on us.
“Buffer is a tremendous loss and there is
no way at this late of a date to go back and
sign a recruit to fill that hole. There will just
be a gap until the following recruiting class
next year. Right now, we’re just hoping
that the others will chose to attend school. ”

Surgery to Repair Torn ACL
STAFF REPORT
Incoming freshman basketball player
Michael Brooker underwent successful re
constructive knee surgery to repair a tom
anterior cruciate ligament on Monday.
The surgery was performed in Chapel
Hill by Dr. Tim Taft, team orthopaedic
surgeon and Director of Sports Medicine
at the University.
Brooker, a 6-foot-6 off-guard from
Sandersville, Ga., suffered a partial tear of
the ACL in his left knee last month playing
basketball in a physical education class.
Brooker said he cancelled a doctor’s
appointment in the days following the in
jury after his knee felt better. But the pain
returned, forcing him to make another
doctor’s appointment. Once there, anMRI

also had several small cartilage tears in his
knee, which were allowed to heal without
surgery.
Rehabilitation will take dose to nine
months, preventing Brooker from seeing
on-court action in the 1996-97 season.
“I was definitely disappointed, ” Brooker
said before the surgery. “I was looking
forward to coming in and trying to contrib
ute as a freshman. I’m still gonna be a part
of everything. It’s still gonna be a great
experience for me to come to the school,
get good grades, and meet the guys.”
Brooker is expected to make a complete
recovery and return for the 1998 season.
Brooker averaged 34 points-per-game
as a senior and gained national attention
last year when he made 87 consecutive free
throws at Sandersville’s Brentwood Acad
emy, setting a state high school record.
