Wednesday, May 3, 1967 THE DAILY TAR HEEL Page 5 Bill Lovingood: A Man Of Numerous Talents By JOEY LEIGH His colleagues in the phy sical education department call him Bill and his baseball teams and classes call him Coach. The remaining UNC males know Bill Lovingood as a' great person and the "guy to get for phys ed." Juniors and seniors fill up Lovingood's two Saturday morning PE 41 classes. Whe- ther its through drop-add or by speaking to the popular Lovingood, students go to all ends to get one of his two sections. There's something magic about the man. Who is this Lovingood? He appears to be somewhat hefty, maybe a little overweight. You wonder how he ever moves so quickly in baseball or handball. Lovingood, his hair in a short crew cut, speaks in a hearty Southern accent. This appearance fur ther enhances his personality. Lovingood breeds an air of informality and relaxation in all of his classes. This lack of rigidity plus 'his humorous comments make students en joy learning. With a grin from ear to ear, Lovingood may go off on tangents in class. His extra-class subjects may include: basketball and base ball games, football practices and the conditioning PE class, the Kennedy assassination, his trip to Las Vegas and the expansion of the University. In high school, Bill Lovin good played the three major sports at Murphy, N. C. In basketball he was a center and forward; in football he played end and kicked extra points (seven consecutive in one game); and in baseball, he pitched, once hurling a perfect game in the Smoky Mountain Conference. "There's a lot of untapped potential in the western part of the state," Lovingood said. "Twelve to 15 schools ga un noticed each year. Sursavage (defensive end at Clemson) and Love (a 1967 high school football All American) are recent exceptions. Two guys my age from the western part of the state who did real well in sports are Ed Sutton (UNC and Redskin running back) and Dave Bristol (Pro base ball player and now manager IT'O UUEQUfMD 0E3 TE3E SGHEEE3!

Before completing his freshman year. Lovingood then returned to Wake to com plete his baseball scholarship. He graduated from Wake Forest in 1953 and came to UNC for his Masters degree. stayed on and became a ?uU tlme assistant professor m 1963. Now he says he is under consideration for associate professorship. In addition to his regular duties, Lovingood coached the freshman baseball team for four years (1962-1966). With a record of 55-23, the highly successful Lovingood retired from the coaching ranks. "I'm real pleased with the athletes we've gotten here," he said. "We've given a good ac count of ourselves." Lovingood, a country boy who doesn't mind admitting it, said, "I'd like to work with the freshmen again. You can't get coaching out of your system in a year. The real reward comes when you see guys you've coached blossom. Not that I take any credit, but Garry Hill is a good exam ple." Lovingood's .55 earned run average en route to 6-0 1957 season set the ACC record which is still intact. "I thought this was pretty good until I saw the nation's best that year, 9-0 and a .29 ERA," the Wake Forest graduate stated. "It's going to take good control and a lot of luck to break my record," he con tinued. "Better pitchers have come along. Bill Haywood (1964 UNC graduate) and Gary Hill are better but are work horses, drawing the heavy assignments. I would like to see Gary break the record. Pitchers like him come along maybe once in a lifetime." Lovingood married a home- town girl in 1955. He and his wife now have two sons, ages six and two. "I don't know how well skilled my two kids will be," stated the physical education instructor.

BILL LOVINGOOD ing to encourage them to par ticipate in athletics because I'd like to see them play well enough to enjoy sports. In the tradition of "you like what you do well," Lov ingood's favorite sport is hand ball. After 15 years of hand ball, he is "attempting to per fect my game." In the de partment hierarchy, the good natured Lovingood tabbed Pat Earey and John Payecha as the "'two best." While these two can beat the Murphy, N. C. native, Lovingood en joys a streak of 5,000 consecu tive wins over his student? tive wins over his students in class which hP. alwavs dial- in class which he always chal lenges. The magic about this man well, that's kind of hard to say. He just enjoys life and his zest is contagious. Emergency meeting of the Monogram Club will be held in the Monogram Room at 7:30 today.

UNC Intramural Program Is One Of The Leading Ones In Country Today By BILL TROTT Fame for the frustrated high school athlete? Release for hostile emotions? Exercise for the physical fitness buff? Carolina's comprehensive in tramural program offers these and much more to the over 60 par cent of the male stu dents who compete in the nu merous sports offered. This year's program is di rected by Ronald Hyatt, a South Carolina native who re ceived his MA in physical edu cation from UNC. Hyatt, who hopes to receive his Ph.D. in a few years, has had previous experience managing intra murals at Atlantic Christian and Campbell College. He terms Carolina's intra mural program "one of the most successful in the coun try." Evidence of the success and reputation of the program comes from the large number of inquiries the Intramural Department receives. The Woolen Gym office nas re- ceived many letters from all sections of the country aSK- Ul6 iur ouvitc vm 5 - tramural programs. The success of Carolina's intramural prognjn is not a new phenomenon. The pro- Sra nas ue ""J ported and carried out through the years by members of tne faculty and administration. Hyatt lists Bob Fetzer, Charles Woolen, Bo Shepherd, Oliver Cornwell, Marvin Al- len, and Walter Rabb as a few of the people who have done much for students and intramurals. This year there has been good support from Dr. Jamerson, chairman of the department of Physical Education, and from the Dean's Office. Except for Hyatt, the pro gram is run entirely by stu dents. The full-time salaried staff is composed of four stu- dents with specific areas of 'work: Roy Earnhardt handles residence hails, Bill Hall han dles graduates, Bob Epting Tenuis Finals v - Set For Duke m Five singles champions and two doubles teams can return to defend titles in the four teenth annual Atlantic Codst Conference tennis tournament here May 11-12-13.

Bob Davis, Tom Chewing and Nat West are all back," said host coach Bob Cox. "But Carolina has juggled its players around with the ineligibility of Bitzy Harrison so I'm not sure yet who will be where." Rahim, who was seeded third in number one singles last spring, upset Tar Heel sophomore Gene Hamilton in the championship match, 7-5, 3-6 and 6-4. Hamilton also re- turns this season, South Carolina poses a real singles threat in sophomore Robert Heald.

Crowder is also the over-all coordinator fors the three di visions. A budget of about $15,000 a year runs the program. Hy att and his staff keep the of fice open as late as nine at night when intramurals are in progress. In addition to the office workers, the yearly pay roll includes approximately 75 part-time referees and offi cials. Much of the . high rate of participation stems from two factors. First, teanT point to tals are kept and the winner is presented a trophy at the end of the year. Competition is keen in all three leagues, and many teams traditionally pride themselves in their in tramural programs. . The second factor is the wide variety of sports offered. Eleven sports determine the team winners. These sports range from horseshoes and handball to badminton and ta- We tennif, Included of CQUrse are guch favorites ag bagket: baU an(j tag XootDall xT Numerous "extra-mural" events increase competition, but do not count in point com- Detltion.

The biggest problems to the office have come from the rapid increase in enrollment at XJNC. Hyatt enjoys having raore people participate, but there has been a strain on the existing facilities. In fact, there is less room now than there was five years ago be cause of the campus building boom. The installation of lights has alleviated some of the problem, but the strain re- mains. Particularly, there is a need for new fields closer to the large dormitories on South Campus. said Cox. Maryland's number one singles player j u n i o r John Schaeffer comprised half of the Terps' champion ship number one doubles team last season.
