Zarro was not charged by police.) The peeping torn trial of UNC gridiron star Richie Zar ro, ' sponsored by Phi Alpha Delta law fraternity, ended Fri day night in a hung jury. Law student lawyers for the prosecution Roy Aycock, Charles Robertson, and Bob Thompson failed to prove to the nine men and three women on the jury that Zarro had been guilty of peeking into the dormitory window of a coed and of watch ing her as she dressed for bed. Elizabeth Taylor of Chapel Hill " had charged Zarro with looking into her Cobb Dormi tory residence. Zarro was ar rested Tuesday nig'ht after a five-day investigation by Chapel Hill police. Miss Taylor called police after Treceivig, two .anonymous letters describing her behavior as she prepared for bed. When attorneys for the de fense Lane Brown, Tom Bolch, and Frank Montgomery asked Miss Taylor why she had "made it so easy for someone to see" into her window, she replied, "it would have been pretty hard to undress underneath a bath robe." She testified that her window shade was broken and would not close. . - - ...... r - - A typewriter, found in Zar ro's room at the time of arrest, was identified by a typewriter expert as the machine used to write the anonymous letters which Miss Taylor had re ceived. " Zarro-'s lawyers argued that the typewriter had been in a typewriter repair shop on the days the letters were mailed. A large telescope belonging to Zarro was admitted as one of 15 pieces of evidence by the prosecution. Zarro testified that the telescope was used for "stargazing" in connection with a course he was taking in as tronomy. Judge E. L. Ervin of Char lotte presided over the trial.

My win- B Continnie Run Wins Freshman nings will amount to about $4 per blister and $10 for each toenail that's going to fall off, but I guess it's worth it."

The fabulous Kangaroo Kid broke the record of 35 set by Ronnie Collins of South Caro lina against .

At one time the Tigers with sophomore Jim Sutherland and junior Gary Helms hitting from outside, scored 14 .consecutive times. "It took one of our best ef forts to beat them," said UNC coach .Dean Smiths- "Those weren't layups they were shoot ing during that streak. We were charging them on defense, but they just couldn't miss. That Clemson team is tough." -Turning to the performance by. his All-American center, Smith said, "Billy has played well since the Maryland game. He knows he has just a few more college games to play and he is putting everything in to it. He has been playing every phase of the game well. I think he is going to be a fine pro because he can play de fense as well as score." In the" first half Johnny Yok ley and Cunningham kept the Tar Heels to a 39-37 advantage. Yokley, who hit a career high of 17 points, took some of the pressure off Cunningham and Lewis by hitting from outside.
