It was the first Atlantic Coast Conference victory this season for the defending conference champion Tar Heels. Carolina's offense was slow to get started in the high scoring affair, driving deep in to Wake Forest territory in the first quarter, only to be repelled. Starting on their own 28 after receiving the opening kickoff, the Tar Heels pushed steadily towards the goal, getting as far as the Wake Forest seven-yard line before quarterback Nick Vidnovic was sacked twice for combined losses of 32 yards. The Tar Heels were forced to punt to the Deacons uho took the ball on their own 1 3 and drove as far as the Carolina 18-yard line before being bogged down by the Tar Heel defense. Chuck Ramsey then tried for a 35-yard field goal that sailed wide to the left of the goal. Carolina was unable to get a stable offensive drive before the second quarter when the Tar Heels set out on an 86-yard drive that began with a 51-yard pass play from Vidnovic to wingback Jimmy Jerome and ended with a two yard plunge across the center of the line by tailback James Bettcrson for the touchdown. Ellis Alexander's extra point gave Carolina a 7-0 lead with 11:47 left to play in the first half. The Tar Heels capitalized on a Wake Forest fumble with 8:17 left in the second quarter, linebacker Jimmy DeRatt forcing Clayton Heath to cough up the football on the Deacon's own nine-yard line where Tom Embrey recovered for Carolina. Six seconds later Vidnovic found end Charles Waddell in the end zone for another touchdown pass and a 14-0 lead.

After one incomplete pass, Vidnovic passed to wingback Ted Leverenze for 25 yards and a touchdown which gave the Tar Heels a 21-point lead that they took with them to the locker room as the half ended seven minutes later. Carolina continued its onslaught in the second half of play as the Deacon defense continued to fall apart. Taking possession of the ball with 5:36 left in the second period, the Tar Heels drove 44 yards in six plays to boost their lead to 28-0, Johnson scoring for Carolina on a two yard run around right end. The fourth quarter opened with North Carolina in the midst of a 96-yard drive that used up seven plays and 2:58 of the clock. Stuck deep in their own territory after Ramsey booted a 42 yard punt for the Deacons that was downed on the Carolina four yard line, the Tar Heels began their drive with a 55 yard run by Johnson around the left side of the line. Carolina drove the rest of the way to the Deacon end zone behind the running of Johnson and Mike Voight. Voight scored on a five yard run off the left side. Behind 35-0 with 14:27 left to play in the game. Wake Forest took to the air but was unable to get a first down and was forced to punt to the Tar Heels.

Billy Paschall, rotated in at quarterback, opened with a 16-yard pass to Charley Williams, then handed off to Johnson for 12 yards. Voight hit for 1 1 more in two plays followed by a three yard gain by Johnson down to the Wake Forest 10 yard line.

Wake Forest was held to 184 yards of total offense while the Tar Heels racked up 323 yards on the ground and 201 yards passing for 524 yards total offense.

The 1.6 PGA requirement was dropped recently by the ACC, after the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) eliminated the average last year. Each school may choose to follow the change or maintain their present requirements. Students who "possess special aptitudes and talents may be granted admission on a selective basis," the committee decided. They must be reviewed by the Admissions Committee before final acceptance at UNC. Presently, the admissions office at UNC compiles applicants high school averages and Scholastic Aptitude Scores (SAT) to project a student's college average to predict his college success. The ACC and NCAA now only require a 2.0 high school average and SAT score of 800. Other ACC member schools will not require any additional criteria. The trustees' approval means that UNC will continue to accept student-athletes and, other grant-in-aid candidates by its own average, although it is not required to do so. . Special admissions are desirable, said Chancellor N. Ferebee Taylor, because some students are highly competent in a specific area, such as instrumental music, but are weak in math and science disciplines. These students should not be denied admission solely on this basis; hence, a review by the Admissions committee b desirable.. UNC Athletic Director Homer Rice said,We depend on the Admissions Office to direct us and advise us" on students capable of successful work within the University. The athletic office docs not want to recruit students with a predicted grade point average below 1.6, added Rice, as it would be unfair to the student. The Admissions Committee made the recommendation to guide coaches in recruiting for next year. Dean James R. Gaskin, committee chairman, said. 4 ,( Awards day at Kenan Carolina homecoming queen Lori Dillon beams as Kenan Stadium equipment manager Morris Mason presents a bouquet to the new queen.

Of the 287 students registered, 245 cast ballots. Cohen said an additional 90 students were on the voter rolls from 1971 and 1972, but a check of student records showed they were no longer living in Chapel Hill. Official city-wide turnout in the election was 49 per cent, although Cohen said about . 58 per cent of the registered voters who still were in Chapel Hill cast ballots. Student turnout in the Nov. 6 Chapel Hill city election may have been the highest of any voting group in the state.
