The man who proclaimed his team had no
fear of losing was content in the end to "thank
the good Lord ... for a lucky win."
The man whose team was accorded little
chance of success had to accept excruciating
disappointment.
So it went in the finals of the 18th ACC
tournament. South Carolina 52, Carolina 51.
For Frank McGuire, his biggest thrill as a coach.
For Dean Smith, a proud but hurtful moment.
"It was quite a finishy" said McGuire, whose
Gamecocks, far from finished, enter the Eastern
Regionals in Raleigh Thursday. "Years ago a
friend told me, 'Frank, you got to be good, but
you got to be lucky, too.'
"At my age it sounds silly, you know, but
this is my best win. It was bigger than any while
I was at North Carolina. This one was for a.
whole state."
McGuire said "my guys went crazy" after
Tom Owens made his layup with six seconds
left. "But the game wasn't over yet. We didn't
know our matchups for the inbounds play.
"One second can be a lifetime and the last
play seemed that long to me."
Lee Dedmon's full court pass went out of
bounds, however, and it was over, at last.

"South Carolina will make a fine
representative for the conference and could
make it all the way," said Smith.
"We're obviously tremendously disappointed.
We had a tremendous group of young men who
vowed before the season to- win-and we won.
We couldn't have come any closer.
"I have never seen a team so emotionally
ready as we were tonight."
The Tar Heels lost to a team that made 17 of
61 shots. Carolina led most of the game and was
ahead by six with only 4:34 to play.
Fashioning a 21-19 halftime edge, the Tar
Heels used a spread offense that afforded plenty
of room for movement. It may have been to
blame for Dennis Wuycik getting into foul
trouble, however, as he drew two charging calls.
Wuycik was tagged with his fourth personal
just after the second half got underway. He
wound up playing but 20 minutes, in which time
he contributed 16 points.
When he went to the bench for good with
five minutes remaining, South Carolina trailed
44-38.
UNC, which first went to four corners
offense at the 8:31 mark, was operating very
well at this point. "We never played it better,"
said Smith.
But, without their best foul shooter in
Wuycik, the Tar Heels met their undoing. They

missed four one-and-one opportunities after he
left and got only a single point two other times.
Carolina hit just 15 of 28 from the free throw
line. "We got a big lead too soon," said Smith.
"Everybody rve ever known misses foul shots."
Still, the Tar Heels found themselves ahead
by a point as late as six seconds from the end.
Then Dedmon blocked a shot by USC's Kevin
Joyce and a jump ball was called after a
scramble for the ball. '
Steve Honzo threw it up. Joyce's hand
appeared to tip Dedmon's, both coaches
thought. The ball went straight to Owens, who
was alone in front of the goal.
"Lee tried to tap it to George Karl in front of
the South Carolina bench," Smith said. Without
benefit of instant replay, he said he believed
Joyce might have caught a piece of Dedmon's
hand or arm and the ball was deflected to
Owens.
John Roche, named with Dedmon co-MVP
for the tournament, scored 18 points, Owens 14.
The latter had 19 rebounds.
Wuycik was high for UNC with 16, Karl had
13 and Dedmon 12.
McGuire said he hesitated to claim his team
did not play well since "Carolina's play had a lot
to do with that." But his team, which lost four
times this year after its brash preseason
pronouncements, finished with good fortune on
its side.

Several nationally known figures will
be coming to Chapel Hill for the Socialist
Liberation Festival, scheduled for
Tuesday through Friday by the New
University Conference (NUC).
The festival will include speeches,
films, workshops, panels and rock music.
According to one of the organizers of
the festival, Ken -Daly, the events are
designed to commemorate the 100th
Anniversary of the Paris Commune, a
short-lived experiment in socialism which
took place in early 1871 in Paris, France.
Among the personalities to attend the
Festival are Dave Meggyesy, former pro
football player and author of "Our of
Their League," an expose of college and
professional football; Charlene Mitchell,
national chairwoman of the Free Angela
Davis Committee; and James Coleman, a
member of the Gay Liberation Front.
Others who will attend the conference
include Keith Parker, secretary of the
Indianapolis Black Panther Party and
president of the student body at the
University of Indiana; Anne Froines, one
of the organizers of New Haven May Day,
1970; Al and Margaret McSurley,
anti-poverty workers charged with
"attempting to overthrow the
government of Piek County, Ky."; and
Edward Boorstein, a former economic
advisor to Fidel Castro. Michelle Russell,
chairwoman of the New University
Conference Executive Committee; Rick
Reed, a member of the Revolutionary
Black Workers and of the Venceremos
Begrade; and Marcia Rothenberg, worker
in women's liberation, will also be present
at the festival.
The festival will begin in Memorial
Hall at 8 p.m. Tuesday. Miss Rothenberg
and Dave Meggyesy will be the opening
speakers for the festival.
Following the speakers Tuesday a rock
concert will be held in Memorial. Choice
of the group to perform has not yet been
finalized.
An information and aid center for
those attending the conference will open

Campus voters this year will be using
two kinds of ballots computer cards and
paper ballots.
On the computer cards there will be
three offices listed on the front and three
offices listed on the back. On the front
will be listed the candidates for Student
bo4y president, vice-president and Daily
Tar Heel editor. On the back of the
perforated computer card will be the
president of the Carolina Athletic
Association, chairman of the Association
of Women Students and chairman of the
Residence College Federation (RCF).
To vote for the candidate a student
must punch out the square by the
candidate's name with a pen or pencil.
To cast a write-in vote, the voter will
find a square at the bottom of the list of
candidates for this office. He must punch
out this square and then write his write-in
selection on the line beside this square for
the vote to be counted.

A debate between student body
s presidential candidates scheduled for
Sunday night was canceled because of a
lack of candidates participating.
. Presidential candidates Jim Geddie and
Jim Flynt cancelled their parts in the
. debate Saturday afternoon. The other
candidates, Pete Tripodi, Joe Stallings
and Richard Stoner were willing to
participate in the debates.
Geddie said he was unable to fit the
debate into his campaign schedule. "I've
been trying to get around to the
individual people door-to-door," he said.
He will be going door-to-door in the
dorms "until the last minute."
Tripodi said he would spend the
remainder of the time until election day
Tuesday "talking to groups of people in
dorms. Unfortunately, I won't get to see
everybody, but I hope that those I don't
, see will still consider the issues as they
might have heard them from some other
source.
Candidate Richard Stoner said he
planned to spend Sunday evening "at
home saying 'high' to everybody." He
will conduct a rally around South
Building at noon today.
Jim Flynt said his plans for the
remainder of the campaign were to go
door-to-door and "hit as many students
as I can."
Joe Stallings could not be reached for
comment on his plans for the remainder
of the campaign.
David Ruffin, elections chairman, has
emphasized that certain offices can only
be filled by qualified individuals. The
chairman of AWS must be a woman, and
the Chairman of the RCF must be an
occupant of residence colleges.
Ruffin has estimated the heaviest voter
turnout will be in Granville, South
Campus and off-campus. He said he
depends on the candidates to get voters
out in the Upper and Lower Quads. These
voters must go to another dorm to vote.
The paper ballots will be used as in the
past. All legislative and Honor Court seats
will be listed on these ballots. The voter
will be instructed to "X" the appropriate
box.
This year there will be two
poll-tenders at each polling place to
alleviate congestion.
Ruffin has estimated the computer
voting can be tabulated within 25
minutes after the polls close Tuesday
night, barring mechanical obstacles.
Counting of the paper ballots will
depend upon volunteers. Ruffin has asked
that those people interested in helping
count the ballots show up at the Carolina
Union after 7 p.m. on election night.
at 6 p.m. Tuesday in Room 206 of the
Carolina Union. Help will be available
there for almost any type of problem,
according to the organizers.
Workshops on various topics, including
black repression in North Carolina,
education, underground media and the
Middle East crisis will be held at locations
to be announced from 10 a.m. until 2
p.m. Wednesday through Friday.
Several of the discussions and speakers
will be "firsts" for this campus, say the
organizers.
James Coleman's speech Wednesday at
noon in Memorial on Gay Liberation will
be the first time Gay Liberation has been
discussed openly on the UNC campus.
The panel on "Strategies for Black
Liberation" will also be a unique event
for the UNC campus, due to the wide
range of opinions and directions in black
liberation which will be represented
among the four panelists, according to
John Wheeler, one of the members of
NUCr
Several films on various topics will be
shown during the course of the festival.
These include "El Fatah," an account
of the Palestine question; "In the Year of
the Pig," an historical analysis of the
American involvement in Vietnam; and
"79 Springtimes," a biography of Ho Chi
Minh.
The organizers of the festival view it as
an educational experience, in a "total
sense."
"We hope people will participate in all
of the festival, instead of just going to
hear one speech, or attending one or two
workshops," said Ben Blakewood,
another member of NUC.
According to Daly, the reasons for
commemorating the Paris Commune are
two-fold: (1) "because it is a central
point in the history of socialism," and (2)
"because it is relevant-for today in
America in terms of the ghetto riots." ;
Persons interested in assisting" the
planning or organization of the Socialists
Liberation Festival should call 942-7132
or come by the Information Center for
the Festival in 206 Carolina Union after 6
p.m. Tuesday.

(Editor's note: This is the final article
in a series concerning a recent poll of
NROTC students on inree major
issues- Vietnam, drugs and the ROTC
program,)
. While the majority of Naval Reserve
Officer Training Corps (NROTC) students
say they are satisfied with the content of
"the curriculum, many favor cutting drill
back . to once a week and most say the
haircut policy should be loosened.
The findings came from a poll taken in
the Carolina NROTC unit.. About 80 per
cent of the midshipmen responded to the
survey which included questions about
Vietnam, drug use, NROTC and the
military-industrial complex. No names
were required to insure truthful answers.
An overwhelming majority of the
midshipmen said ROTC should be on a
volunteer basis and should remain on
campus.
Of the 197 students responding, 92.9
per cent said it should be voluntary and
94.9 said it should remain on campus.
Only 5.6 per cent said the midshipmen
thought the program should be
compulsory and only 3 per cent said it
should be removed from campus.
Why do students join NROTC? The
majority, 52.8 per cent, said it was for a
desire to be an officer. Roughly a fifth,
21.8 per cent, said it was to beat the
draft; 21.3 per cent said it was to get
their educations paid for; and 4.1 per
cent expressed no opinion.
Interestingly, only a tenth of the
freshman class said they joined to beat
the draft, while a third of the seniors said
the draft was their reason for joining. The
figure rises from 10.3 per cent for
freshmen, to 16.7 per cent for
sophomores, 22.6 per cent for juniors,
and 33.3 per cent for seniors.
Nearly half, 48.7 per cent said they do
not plan to make the Navy career. A
small 5.1 per cent say they will make the
service their career and 45.7 per cent said
they will wait and see.
The udshipmen wrere split on the
question of , restraint in their personal
grooming, political activities, etc. Less
than half, 46.2 per cent said they did feel
restrained with 51.8 per cent saying they
did not.
The question of drill brought a strong
response. Almost half, 49.7 per cent favor
cutting back from twice a week to one
session a week. Another 27.4 per cent
said they would abolish drill altogether.
A scant 1 per cent favored increasing
drill time and 20.8 per cent said it should
remain as it is now.
The strongest reaction against drill
came from upperclassmen. The freshmen
polled 60.3 per cent favoring either
cutting back or abolishing drill, but the
statistic jumps to 80.6 per cent , for
sophomores, a high 93.5 per cent for
juniors and 82 per cent for seniors.
More than half, 58.4 per cent of the
future - naval officers said the haircut
policy should be loosened, with 39.6 per
cent saying they were satisfied.
More than a third of the midship men
viewed the curriculum and said the ROTC
course load should be lowered. The
majority, 55.3 per cent, felt the number
