The scrambler:
A quarterback's life is one of dodging and darting. UNC
signal-calJer Paul Miller is one of the best as he showed in
UiNC's 35-14 win over Maryland Saturday.
Whether on the roll-out looking for a receiver, (left).

touchdown nass
by Howie Can
A ssisfjnt Sp( rs F.ditor
'T think my little brother could have caught that
pass," said Carolina wingback Lewis Jolley after catching
.1 h2 yard touchdown pass in the Tar Heels' 35 14
vkUhv over Maryland in Kenan Stadium Saturday.
"Marvland was playing for either the flat or the
sideline pass, and with their man-to-man defense, there
was nobody to pick me up after 1 got past my man,"
explained Jolley, a d-0, 20S pound senior from Forest
City.
"lewis called that one." admitted quarterback Paul
Miller, who laid in a perfect pass to Jolley after he had
gotten past Terrapin safety Bob Tucker.
"We've been kidding each other about pass catching
since last year when he dropped a few good passes,"
Miller went on. "It seems like when 1 throw it well he
drops it. and when 1 throw a bad one he jumps up and
grabs it."
Jolley had come up with another bit play earlier in
the game when he raced 53 yards on a counter to the
Maryland l to set up Carolina's second touchdown.
"The coaches called that one." Miller said.
"Miller fakes, and hands to me coming around,"
explained Jolley of the play. 'Tf you get through, there's
no one to stop you.
"1 think the pass was more important than that long
run," Jolley continued. "The pass put us two
touchdowns ahead, and took the pressure off the
defense that we had put on them with our mistakes. As
far as I'm concerned, the defense still hasn't been scored
on."
Although he admits the coaches called "most of the
game," Miller did ad lib on one play in the second
quarter that had the entire crowd of 43,000 in Kenan
Stadium on its feet.
On first and ten at the Carolina 41. Miller took the
snap and rolled to his left, only to find Terrapin
defensive end Bob Martell closing Ln on him. Miller
turned and ran for the opposite sideline, where he broke
away from another gang of would-be Maryland tacklers.
Running back to the left again, he passed to wide open
tailback Billy Hite, who ran for 21 yards.
"It started off as a pass play to Jolley in the flat."
said Miller. "But when their right end came in. 1 had to
run. 1 sure was glad to see Hite out there when I run
around the last time.
Miller also praised the Maryland defense.
A
"They were a lot better team than we had fv
anticipated." he said. "The were standing us up on
tackles all day."
Meanwhile, in another coiner of the lockeiroom.
linebacker John Bunting, who had just scored his first
touchdown since high school cm j 43-ard runback ot a
pass interception, was savoring the victory.
"When I was being recruited in high school. Bob Ward
was the coach of Maryland." said Bunting, who lives m
Silver Spring. Md.. about 15 minutes away from College
Park. "He was the man I liked second best, but I decided
to come here, to get out on my own a little more."
Bunting explained the Tar HeeN" po r thud quarter
as "a mental breakdown, we jut had a mental
breakdown."
Bunting, win had earlier intercepted a Maryland pass
in the third quarter, was playing on the left side when lie
picked off Ins second interception. Reserve linebacker
Mel Riddile had taken over Bunting's usual position, and
Bunting had moved into Mike Mansfield's slot in an
attempt to stop the Terrapins" short passing game.
"Robbi VandenBroek was the guy who tipped the
pass." Bunting said. "He should get credit for at least
half the points."

Saturday.
' 1 thought our defense was stinking."
said Lester in an authoritarian Virginia
accent. "Our men just got beat by
Carolina's line and didn't pass block well
at all."
Even so. they protected QB Al Neville
well enough for the sophomore to
complete 14 of 2l- passes for 172 yards,
including the first touchdown scored on
Carolina's defer.se.
"We passed too much, really." Lester
continued. "I think the only way you can
beat Carolina is run on 'em and we should
have tried to establish a running game in
the first half." Maryland had 3V yards net
rushing, mostly because of Neville's losses
because Art Seym ore ran for 6Q.
"H jw many times did we pass,
anyway '"Lester wondered. An aide told
him 2(h "Well, that's too many, really. 1
thought it was more than that."
"Didn't all the pass plays come in
from the sideline"1" asked a Maryland
reporter.
"Yeah, that's true." the coach said.
Then he looked up an smiled tightly.
"You know, we make mistakes too."
"Neville played a good game for us
today, but on that first interception he
the tragic loss of Bill Arnold this week.
"I couldn't be prouder of this team.
Maryland has a good football team, and I
was certainly concerned after they tied in
the third quarter.
"We had some exchange problems
then and also in the second quarter when
we lost another chance to s.ore a
touchdown."
Starting defensive end Bill Brafford
didn't play Saturday due to an ankle
injury, and Bill Chapman was a more than
adequate replacement. Tackle trie
Hynan also missed the game because of a
minor ailment.
"Paul Miller proved agim that he is a
winner." Dooley commented, "and both
Hamhr. and Jolley came up with the b:?
plays for us.
"Oglesby ran well in the first half, and
I think we got his fumble difficulties
corrected."
when John Bunting scored on an
interception with 7; 11 remaining, it
continued a 12-quarter scoring streak for
the Tar Heels. The shutout streak for the
defense was broken when Neville hit Dan
Bungori with a scoring pass m the third
period.
"Our secondary made some slipups,"
had Bungori open and just plain threw a dooley admitted, "but we know we have
bad pass. I didn't think we played that some good athletes back there. Actually.
