When the heart and the brain went,
the body expired. Virginia coach Bill
Gibson delivered the post-mortem on his
defeated team after Bill Gerry and Barry
Parkhill were disqualified and the
Cavaliers lost to Carolina 80-75 in
Carrnichael Auditorium.
"There's no doubt about it -we missed
Gerry and Parkhill," said the bitter coach
between swigs of a Coke. "I have to think
Gerry means more to us than Bill
Chamberlain does to Carolina."
Gerry, the physical 6-7 forward who
got 24 points and 10 rebounds for the
Cavs while he was in, was banished along
with Chamberlain after the two started
fighting with 8:33 left in the game.
A Virginia observer told UVa sports
publicist Barney Cooke that Chamberlain
had landed the first three blows, and
when Gerry retaliated the referees saw it
and called the double techinicals.
According to one UNC observer, Gerry
started it with "an elbow smash."
Virginia was three points ahead of
Carolina when Parkhill fouled out. This
was the death blow, because Parkhill's
playmaking, shooting and passing had
been impeccable. He ended with 16
points.
George Karl's drive tied the game up
21 seconds after Parkhill left, and Dennis
Wuycik's three-pointer put UNC ahead
for good with three minutes remaining.
Karl had three fouls to worry about in
the last half, but didn't draw his fourth
until the last two minutes and continued
to hustle recklessly.
"When I got in foul trouble," said Karl
in the locker room, "I kept applying the
same pressure when my man didn't have
the ball, but when he got the ball I didn't
pressure him as much."
"Denny's bucket was the big play of
the game. He's got that great desire. I
really didn't know what would happen in
the game until that basket."
Wuycik's 30-point performance
propelled into second place in the
conference scoring race behind Wake
Forest's Charlie Davis. Although
conference stats were released before the
game, Wuycik now has a 25.1 average to
John Roche's 25-point norm. South
Carolina plays Maryland tonight. !
"I just shot! it, that's all," said Wuycik
of his, improbable. .off-balance tap-in.
"You guys in the press box had a better
look at it than I did."

Other decisive factors were the
second-half shooting exhibition by Steve
Previs, who went scoreless in the first
half, and the improving play of Lee
Dedmon. Dedmon got 11 points and
Previs picked up seven, hitting three
20-footers to bring the Heels back from a
seven-point deficit.
Dean Smith showed relief, happiness
and disappointment simultaneously in his
post-game caucus with reporters.
"I couldn't be prouder of this team,"
Smith declared. "To win the way we did,
coming from behind, has to help us in the
conference games ahead."
However, the coach called it "our
worst game of the year" and said that Ihe
Tar Heels won't win many more games
with a similar performance.
Although Gibson mentioned the ill
fortune that beset his club, he naturally
failed to mention the many UNC taps and
layups that flirted with the rim but
-refused to drop. Given half the baskets
that should have gone in, it's very
possible that the Tar Heels could have
survived even with Gerry and Parkhill in
the game.
"When I say that it was our worst
game, I mean that we weren't up
mentally for it," said Smith. "It's hard to
be mentally ready every game. Certainly
it was our worst offensive game, but we
were active on the boards and except for
a couple of individual letdowns it was a
good defensive effort."
Bad back doesn't hamper
by Clint Roswell
Sports Writer
All the . traction that George Karl
suffered through last spring recovering
from the removal of a disc in his back
could not disengage George's hope of
playing basketball for Carolina this
season.
Fortunately, the only reminder of the
successful operation has been an
occasional stiffness after practice.
"It does not bother me too much,"
smiled the 6-2 backcourt whiz from
Pennsylvania, "and during the games, I
try not to think about it." "
- Determination and effort are the key1
words for the scrappy, hard-nosed
sophomore who is bubbling over with
ability and confidence.

The fact that most of these games will
be nationally televised is a good
indication of how closely sports and
television are linked. It could be the
embrace of death.
"Given today's budgets," the late
Vince Lombardi once explained, "there
wouldn't be a single franchise left in the
NFL without television."
If the teams used to get along without
; television, why can't they now?
;: Well, to use one NFL team as an
example, since 1953 its salary costs have
risen 700, administrative cost 745,
' and scouting costs have climbed an
; '' astronomical 2700.
"Costs go up and attendance is at the
maximum, so there is no longer any room
''for maneuverability for management,"
ex-Jet owner Sonny Werblin moans.
'There is no way we could survive
without television.'.
r TV sports eat up a lot of advertising
money: the NFL gets 34.7 million dollars
for the weekend games, and another 8.6
"million for the new Monday night
package.
Advertisers, though, are willing, at
least for the time being, to pay the price.
The NFL is the number one advertising
vehicle for products designed to appeal to
beer drinkers, high-mileage drivers, men
over 18 years of age, people earning over
$10,000 a year, and light TV viewers.
Contrast this with "Bonanza,"
perenially the nation's top-rated TV
show. According to one General Motors "
executive, "Bonanza" attracts "old men,
shut-ins, mitten-knitters, Gold water
voters, and Collie dogs who should know
better."
(The networks and their paid shiUs will
bend over backwards to keep GM happy,
as ABC proved in its 1967 telecast of the
Texas A&M-Southern Methodist game.
SMU's nickname is the "Mustangs," but
the announcers insisted on calling them
the "Colts," the "Ponies," or the
"Horses," never the Mustangs. The reason
was that the sponsor of the telecast
happened to be Chevrolet, which was
introducing its new Camaro model as a
rival to Ford's, you guessed it, Mustang.)
"Maybe we help keep baseball alive
and football healthier," says Chrysler
Corporation advertising . director Dick
Forbes, "But we would not consider it if
it were not a sound business proposition,
a sensible investment."
