. There arc a million and one faceless guys in the
world. They deliver you mail, write7 your ticket at the
airport, pull time in the army. Yes, they are even
basketball referees.
Out of uniform, you would never recognize them.
They just methodically do their jobs and try to attract
as little attention as possible. Not only does nobody
know their names, no one remembers their faces
But then there's Lou Bello.
Lou Bello, as most anyone who has ever seen a
college basketball game cast of the Mississippi knows, is
a referee. He calls all three major sports, but the crowds
don't get a good look at him except on the basketball
court.
They sometimes froth at him, as they do all officials,
and some even call him dirty names.
It there's one sure truism in life, it is that the referee
always loses.
Despite all this, Lou Bello is distinctive in his trade
He has a line for every situation, and when a game

IF you want something more than just a
stereo console, and something less than
a houseful of electronic equipment, see
the KLH Model Twenty-Four.
The Model Twenty-Four is a complete
stereo music system that plays records, FM
broadcasts, AM too if you wish, plus any
thing (such as a tape recorder) you care to
plug into it. Instead of looking like a
Victorian hope chest or an electrician's
nightmare, it comes in three compact and
unobtrusive walnut cabinets that slip
gracefully into a living room. It won't take
up much of your valuable living space, and
it doesn't take a pilot's license to operate.
But what sets it even further apart from
other stereo equipment is the level of per
formance it delivers. It sounds believe us
-like twice the price. That's why it's the
best-selling, most-talked-about stereo sys
tem on the market.
m il ii mil if i ' 'l 'I' ' I.--CJ
Ask anyone who owns KLH stereo equip
ment about its performance and value.
Then seek out the Model Twenty-Four
and judge it critically for yourself.
You won't have trouble finding one in a
store. Just follow that well-beaten path.

"Yeah, North Carolina beat South Carolina." replied
one. "The referees were for North Carolina. They called
a charging foul on Roche, and he didn t do it. McGuire
was mad as hell at them refs afterwards."
"That so?" he smiled and figured it best to
discontinue that conversation.
You want to dig into the background of man like
this, and you don't have to pry hard to get something
from Lou Bello.

You could tell Lou Bello stories for hours. He has
been called "John Barry more Bello" by a newspaper,
columnist, national magazines have done stories on him,
and now, he says, a book is being compiled about him.
"Yeah, Marvin West in Knoxville is writing the Lou
Bello Story," he said Wednesday night after the
Carolina-South Carolina game.
In Columbia, Bello was back in his familiar position.
It was a crucial game, and since only the best officiate
those, he was a courtside natural.
He was also on the road, where he spends most of his
time.

-"It Don't Mean Nothing"
He was president of the student body at Duke, which he
says "don't mean nothing." He did have one job at
Duke, however, which mushroomed into a lifetime
profession.
"I was in a self-help program, and my job was to take
care of the gym. That meant I refereed a lot of games,
you know, intramurals and all that stuff.
"Then the downtown YMCA league needed a rcf who
didn't know the players, so they called out to Duke and
got me. Footsie Knight, who is now the supervisor of
officials in the ACC, was then head of the refs in the
YMCA's. He must have liked something and ..."

And so off we went. He had a cold and was getting hoarse.
There were a hundred questions, all which he has "I'm not answering anything but pertinent questions

"How'd you think I called it?"
Someone mentioned a foul called against UNC which
was questionable. "I tend to agree. That might not have
been."
Then he propped his hat against the window and
quickly fell asleep.
And there was Lou Bello, basketball official, riding
four hours over the country roads of the Piedmont to
get back home.
The UNC team plane was going back to Raleigh, but
it was against conference rules for him to ride on it.
The rcf is a loner, too.
But then there's Lou Bello. He has friends at every
stop, knows everybody it seems and remembers them
all.
They remember him, too, for Lou Bello stands above
the crowd.

USC's McGuire Blew His Coo
By ART CHANSKY
DTH Asst. Sports Editor
Frank McGuire blew his cool
Wednesday night at the fuming
Carolina Coliseum in
Columbia.
, In,, a, complete,, turnabout .
from his attitude of ten days
before in Charlotte, the South
Carolina coach was anything
but humble after his
Gamecocks had gone down to
68-62 defeat at the hands of
North Carolina.
"This is a NBA team we
played tonight," he said.
"Charlie Scott made the
Olympic team, Rusty Clark is
seven feet and Lee Dedmon is
6-10. We've got a bunch of
kids. They beat us in height but
not in spirit."
McGuire was burned up, and
he said so. Much of his anger
stemmed from the officiating.
Referees Lou Bello and George
Conley took McGuire's bread
and butter off the court with
55 seconds left in the ball game
and the Gamecocks trailing by
only two.
USC's John Roche, chief
ball handler, playmaker and
shooter, was called for his fifth
foul when he charged into Bill
Bunting with less than a
minute to play. Conley made
the call, and the Gamecocks
died with it. Everyone in the
spanking new. field house knew
it, too.
As Roche left the game,
McGuire called Conley over
and, pointing a finger to his
chest, shouted a one word
exclamation of disbelief. After
the game, McGuire talked in
more printable terms.
"The turning point of the ,
game was 'that' call on .
Roche," he said. 'We , were, -i
only two back at the time, and
I think we would have won the
game if the call had gone the ,
other way."
McGuire was asked if he
thought the Carolina press was
more effective than it had been .
in Charlotte, and the
Gamecock coach really laid it
to Bello and Conley.
"The press only works when
the officials allow slapping,
grabbing and holding. Any
press can be broken if they call
fouls. They (UNC) were
slapping and holding in the
first half and nothing was
called. But late in the game
when we pressed, they called
everything."
With that, McGuire let the
cat out of the bag. He had been
preaching all along that the Tar
Heels were vastly superior to
his own team, that he would be
pleased just to be "in the
game."
The point is that the
officiating wasn't bad only
towards South Carolina it was
bad all around. His Gamecocks
were simply outplayed. Roche
would have never fouled out if
he hadn't committed two
needless infractions earlier
while reaching
Grubar.
in on Dick
McGuire abandoned his
psyche tactics and laid it right
on the line. He thought his
Gamecoqks .f could, have r and
should have won.
Actually, it was Dean Smith,
McGuire's pupil, who outfoxed
the old master once again.
Smith had the Tar Heels
mentally prepared to play their
toughest game of the season.
"We really had the adrenelin
flowing," the Carolina mentor
said Thursday. "We were much
more mentally ready to play
this game than we were in
Charlotte."
It took a masterful coaching
job both before and during the
"complement our regular
bread and butter press."
Grubar, Charlie Scott and
Eddie Fogler forced numerous
steals by pressuring the
Gamecocks with their ball
hawkins tactics.
But other than praising the
play of all nine Tar Heels used,
Smith preferred to look
forward to Saturday's regular
season finale at Duke rather
than looking on the South
Carolina victory.
"Duke has fine personnel,"
he warned. "They have some
outstanding seniors that are
playing their final home game,
plus it's also Coach Bubas' last
game in the Indoor Stadium."
But Smith knows he may be

The Tar Heels were
