They made it took ridicu lously easy, sweeping both ends, but particularly Caro-lina'-s rigtit, down the field and into the end zone. They turned right end Jim Masino a corner back Jack Davenport in and sprung half back Carl Ward off on a 20 yard run to get the drive start . ed. Then after trying Carolina's left side three times for 18 more yards, quarterback Wal ly Gabler rolled out to his ' left again and went in from 31 yards out. 4 c Twin safeties Bill Edwards and Alan McArthur both bad their hands on Gabler at the 12 but he slipped through.

Michigan made it 21-0 when end Jeff Hoyne picked off a Danny Talbott pass in the left flat and lumbered 50 yards to the UNC six, where Talbott overhauled him. Fullback Dave Fisher scored two plays later. Then while a near capacity crowd of 41,000 sat stunned in the heat, fanning themselves, Carolina got its ducks in a line and began playing Dan. The defense spread out, got tough, and started taking Michigan's outside play away. On the right, sophomores Ma sino and Davenport began playing like they weren't sophomores both of them drew Coach Jim Hickey's praise after the game. After Jimmy Byrd, a 5-8 dasher, hauled the Wolverine kickoff back 20 yards, Talbott whipped the offense together and drove it down the field to the UM 11.

But for a dropped pass in the end zone and a fluke Michigan touchdown UNC might have won. Admittedly a temperature in the high 80s was an important factor. The mighty Wolverines were a sparkless and tired team aft er the first quarter. Short Long Day Tar Heel fans sweated through the heat but most of them expressed delight with the qytcome of what was sup posed to be a long day for the Heels. Instead Michigan had to hold on to squeek out a win. Carolina supporters walked out of Kenan Stadium with smiles on their faces saying "They were surprisingly good.

For the rest o the second half, except for two Michigan drives in the fourth period which resulted in a field goal and a touchdown, Carolina dominated the game. UNC's last score came after a Wolverine fumble on their own 40 yard line. Talbott di rected the drive to the 19 yard line where Beaver came in and on his first play, dropped back and hit Chapman on the left side for the first touch down pass of his career.

Speaker Comments House Speaker H. P. (Pat) Taylor Jr. of Wadesboro called results of the poll "interest ing." "Assuming your poll is cor rect, it would appear that the majority of members of the House are looking for a settle ment.

Of the 15 members who had no comment or were undecid ed, two said they would vote for whatever recommendations the Study Commission makes. Comments from the Repre sentatives ranged from one ex (rrmp to nnothrr. Several on both sides of the speaker ban said their minds were mnde up and could not be changed. One representative who fav ored a change said: "I now be lieve the best solution would be an amendement placing the authority in the hands of the trustees, where it belongs. I believe the Commission re port will endorse this very po sition." "Effective Regulation" A House member who want ed to keep the law said he would vote for an amendment only "if there were some ef fective regulation of speakers." Another who would vote to keep the law said: "I think the people of my county and of North Carolina want the ban retained, and I'm repre senting the people of my coun ty and North Carolina."

Fifth Amendment Still another, who would vote for amendment, said his ob jection to the law was based on "the unconstitutional part about the Fifth Amendment. I would weigh the Commission's report very heavily. They have studied the situation at first hand and I haven't." One Representative said his mind had been made up be fore the end of the 1965 legis lative session. "The law is too strenuous and prohibits educa tional freedom. I would vote to amend it . . . the Commission's report would have no effect." Another said he favored amendment, "but only if trust ees adopt a resolution saying they won't allow Communis! speakers. Otherwise I'd retain it." And one Representative who declined to comment on how he would vote said, "I feel very strongly that the members of, the Commission are fine folks and they have worked very hard. I hope they will come up with a unanimous decision, which I w ill support." U:3
