cThr Daily (Ear Uppl SUMMER CLASSES From Page 3 Darah McClain, a sophomore psy chology major from Charlotte, said she was unhappy with her search for an internship. “1 was disappointed in the number of available internships within my major here in Chapel Hill.” McClain said she thought she did not have support during her search for an internship and did not find anything that would allow her to gain more experience in her field. But other students said they were able to find jobs or internships but decided to stay in Chapel Hill to take courses. Sophomore Deanna Carvalho, a journalism major from Charlotte, said she decided to take summer courses in order to receive more credit hours. Carvalho said she turned down an internship in Charlotte and then was unable to secure an internship locally. Recent graduate Lauren Sumner said she landed a graphic design job after interviewing for about five months. “The economy is not as good as it had been in past years, and I think a lot of people who have just graduated have had trouble getting jobs,” Sumner said. Most students said attending summer school gives them the opportunity to fulfill major perspectives and, for some, to complete final graduation require ments. Sophomore Allison Osborne, a biol ogy major from Greensboro, said she decided to take classes to fulfill some of her major requirements. “I heard that Physics 26 and Physics 27 were easier to take during summer school, so I decided to give it a try.” The University Editor can be reached at udesk@unc.edu. HORACE WILLIAMS From Page 3 rounding area, which will be developed as “Carolina North,” a campus sched uled to include office and classroom buildings, as well as technological facil ities. The mixed-use complex would occupy 575 acres of the 979-acre Horace Williams tract owned by UNC. According to AOPA’s Web site, Black has agreed to discuss the airport’s closing with several University trustees. Carolyn Elfland, vice chancellor for campus services, said no specific date has been set for the facility’s closure but that in the meantime, airport users are moving forward with plans to vacate the grounds. Elfland said naming a closure date will depend on the N.C. Area Health Education Centers Program’s relocation efforts. AH EC is based out of the UNC School of Medicine and works to pro vide other parts of the state with the expertise of UNC medical faculty. The program has used the airport to trans port faculty statewide so they can pro vide speciality clinics and educational programs. “We are still in the process of review ing alternative locations for medical air operations,” said Tom Bacon, director ofAHEC. Bacon said cost, convenience and safety are the program’s main criteria for finding a suitable new base for its air operations. Among the new locations being con sidered are the Raleigh-Durham International Airport and the Sanford- Lee Airport, located between Sanford and Raleigh.

The charge stems from an incident at about 1:30 a.m. May 2at Players night club, reports state. Scott allegedly punched a female in her face, causing minor swelling and a scratch above her upper lip, said Jane Cousins, Chapel Hill police spokes woman. The victim, a UNC student, received treatment at the scene and then filed a statement, Cousins said. Reports state that Scott was arrested Pitching Key to Postseason By Kellie Dixon Sports Editor Coach Mike Fox shifted his weight and paced slightly outside then inside the Tar Heels’ dugout Tuesday afternoon, his words barely audi ble to his team sit ting less than 5 ■ gTt^ailytarheeUomJ For the full story on the Tar Heels' finish in the ACC tournament go to www.dailytarheef.com. feet away. Tractors growled as the groundskeepers trimmed the field after the morning’s scrimmage. But despite the noise in the outfield and the droning of electrical saws work ing to pin up the backstop, his players heard every word. “All of us realize this part of the sea son is really the part that counts,” said Russ Adams, a junior infielder who is leading North Carolina with a .374 bat ting average. “It’s kind of like anew sea son; we’re starting all over again.” And starting over might be the best thing for the UNC team after a disap pointing performance in last week’s ACC tournament. From that tourna ment, UNC earned a second seed in NCAA Regional Division I play. North Carolina (40-19, 17-7) traveled to Columbia, S.C., on Wednesday to prepare for Friday’s 2 p.m. bout with Men's Golf Swings for National Title By Kellie Dixon Sports Editor Five members of the North Carolina men’s golf team will travel to Columbus, Ohio, today to compete against 29 other teams for the national championship. The golf team qualified for the tour nament May 18 following a third-place finish at the NCAA East Regional, where the Tar Heels shot a team total of 877 and finished just one stroke behind regional co-champions Clemson and Georgia Tech, who finished at 876. The tournament will be held at Ohio State’s Scarlet Course. The five-member North Carolina squad includes tri-captains Ramon Bescansa, Dustin Bray and Bob Cherry as well as juniors Jeremy Elliott and Brad Moldin. Coach John Inman says he’s proud of his team’s progress and expects them to unleash their potential this weekend. “They’re all playing very well, and they’re all contributing toward good k TAN ALL SUMMER For Only 11*99' it From May to Oct 1 Package expires Oct.l | Statewide | SURFSIDE BEACH.

Steve Woodham, owner and manag er of Players, said Scott, 20, was able to enter the 21-and-over club because it was being used for a party that allowed people 18 years old and older to enter. Wristbands were issued to people 21 years old and older to prevent underage drinking, he added. According to a statement, UNC men’s basketball coach Matt Doherty indicated Scott plans to fight the charge. “I have spoken to Melvin, and he has told me a different version of the events,” Doherty said in the statement. “We take this seriously and will look into third-seededjames Madison University. UNC never before has faced the Dukes (43-14) in post-season play. The tournament is double elimination, and the Tar Heels could face two other teams this weekend - first-seeded South Carolina or fourth-seeded Virginia Commonwealth (38-25). The Gamecocks (48-14) are hosting the tournament for the third consecutive year at Sarge Frye Field. Fox cited pitching as the one area UNC needed to improve. During the last few weeks, North Carolina’s pitchers haven’t been producing at the same level they were during the regular sea son -a fact that has caused concern. “You’ve got to have a good team,” he said. “You have to have very good pitch ing, and more importandy, you’ve got to know and expect that you can do it.” Right-handed pitcher Scott Autrey, who has appeared in 15 games, is slated to open the tournament for the Tar Heels. He is 4-3 on the season with a 4.98 earned run average. But the Tar Heels don’t expect to have any trouble competing in this weekend’s tournament. “We’ve played some of the best games in the country,” Adams said. “The competition in the ACC is so great that we’re really prepared for the team scores,” he said. In the first part of the tournament, each five-member team is paired with two other teams. The combined scores of each team determines who advances to the next round. Inman says he is not concerned about the stiff competition his team can expect to face. ACC champion Dustin Bray tallied a 71-stroke average this spring that could boost his team in NCAA play. “We know there are 30 good golf teams there, so we’re happy to be going and participating, obviously,” he said. “It’s something that doesn’t really matter who it is you’re playing with because you’re playing the golf course. You’re not playing them individually.” The Tar Heels are gunning for their first team championship in school histo- Classified Advertising | Statewide | DRIVER -Own your own truck - No Money Down.

In addition to the experience factor, several Tar Heels hope to use this week end as a chance to further break school records. Outfielder Adam Greenberg needs to score four more runs to beat the single-season school record of 79. Senior Chris Maples, who set single season school records for extra-base hits (46) and total bases (181), is two shy of reaching the school record of 24 home runs, set in 1986. Instead of solely pinpointing a strat egy for Friday’s opener, Fox articulated a vision for his players during Tuesday’s post-practice speech. He told them about his experience in 1978 when as a Tar Heel second base man, he reached the College World Series in Omaha, Neb. “It’s really the first time I’ve ever mentioned it to them because I wanted to try and explain to them what a great feeling it is and how it makes everything worthwhile,” he said. “There’s no team that can be more prepared to go into the tournament than ours.” The Sports Editor can be reached at sports@unc.edu. ry.
