Atlanta (UPI) Those Vanderbilt Commodores are
going to be hard to catch in the Southeastern
Coherence basketball chase after slipping past
Alabama the other night.
That really was an upset. Vandy beat the Tide by
only a single point up in Nashville, so everyone -except,
obviously, the Commodores - figured that
Alabama would be a winner in the return match at
Tuscaloosa.
Now. the 6th-ranked Commodores (17-1) have to
avoid upsets themselves. They've beaten 8th-ranked
Alabama (15-3) twice and already beaten defending
Women victorious aai
champion Kentucky and Tennessee on the road.
Th? pre-season polls picked Kentucky. Alabama
and Tennessee to finish 1-2-3. The figuring was that
Vanderbilt didn't have a center. But the Commodores
upset that figuring by switching 6-foot-K Jan Van
Breda Kolff. formerly the tallest guard in college
basketball, to the pivot and although he doesn't
provide much muscle at 185. the move paid off.
The ACC
That's right, it doesn't matter if N.C. State has
r
beaten some ACT" rival by 40 points twice, the
Wolfpack has to prove it all over again in the
tournament.
If State, as expected, should win the ACC
tournament, the Wolfpack will hae an edge in the
NCAA playoffs. The Eastern Regionals are being
played on State's home court in Raleigh; and the
nationals are just a few miles away, at Greensboro, site
of the ACC Tournament.
A rematch between State and UCLA in the NCAA
finals is a distinct possibility.
Carolina's women basketballers scored a
resounding 75-48 rout over visiting High
Point Tuesday night to lift their Monday
blahs from Carmichael Auditorium.
"Cannon's Cagers" ripped to a 20 point
third quarter while the mistake-plagued
Panther hit for only six.
Senior co-captain Lucy Lowder exerted
offense and defense pressure, sparking the
squad in her !2-point performance. Marsha
Mann and Dawn Allred marked in the 20's
with 25 and 21 respectively. Mann had 17
rebounds.

The UNC men's fencing team will do battle with N. C. State tonight at 7 p.m. in
Carmichael Auditorium. According to Carolina head coach Ron Miller, the State
match is always one of the Tar Heels' biggest of the season.
"State is our oldest and strongest rivalry besides Duke," he said. "State was also
the only team before Maryland to beat us in a fencing match. That was in 1971
though, before fencing was an official ACC sport.
"They have always fenced well against us. I think we've had more close matches
with them than with any other team."
So far this season, the Wolfpack has been an enigma. They defeated Muhlenberg,
but then lost to Clemson for the first time ever. Also. Dick Whitehead, their number
one epee man, has been cut from the team for disciplinary reasons. -
"I think all three of our weapons will win," Miller said. "Without Whitehead,
State's epee team will be much weaker, and their foil team has been a weakness for
the past few years. Sabre will be the closest of the three weapons because that is
traditionally their strongest one. In saber they, have Mark Stiegal who made all
ACC and he should do well." -
Another mark against State is the fact that Jim Krause and A. J. Keahe will
return to action after, according to Miller, "their debt was paid." This will give the
Tar Heels added depth and Miller plans to utilize it fully.'

Sanders rumored
to be leaving UP
by Carclii Bakewell
Sports Writer
Fred Sanders, coach of the UNC gymnastics team for the past six years,
will probably not resume his post next fall, members of the gymnastics team
and officials in Carmichael said Monday.
Sanders, who built the gymnastics program up from club status five years
ago to the third ranking team in the Southern Intercollegiate Gymnastics
League last year, instructs gym classes in addition to his coaching duties.
According to Bob Semes, captain of the gymnastics squad. Sanders is
dissatisfied with his teaching assignments and has asked to be hired on a
part-time basis, with coaching duties only.
So far, an agreement has not been reached between Sanders and
administration officials, and his contract has not been renewed, a University
official said.
A native of Evanston, 111. and a graduate of the University of Michigan.
Sanders was a three-time All-America, Big Ten trampoline champion and
NCAA runner-up.
He is also a former AAU national champion, Canadian champion and a
member of the first United States Gymnastics Federation team to tour
Europe.
Currently, Sanders is ranked fifth in the world among professional
trampolinists.
Since fipishing school, Sanders has coached high school diving in Hawaii
and gymnastics on the mainland. He has also served as diving coach and
recruiter for the UNC swim team.
Sanders has not made any definite plans for the future, but will probably
remain in the Chapel Hill area and continue giving private gymnastics
lessons, team members said.

Special to the DTH
Ah yen fans, there's no doubt-about it.
Spring is here! Spring, that lusty month
when Chapel Hill co-eds discard their bras
and nymph-like, prance across the campus.
Spring, when beast and man alike burst forth
in praise of CJod and the noble sun.
You know the old saying; "In spring a
young man's fancy turns to love, poetry.and
stomping the guts out of some clown from
State." Which brings us to the rub of this
gs v J
bodacious attempt at literary acumen.
For that noble breed of man. the UNC
rugger, once again stalks the field. After this
year's-usual autumnal display of ineptitude,
young buck and old fart alike are ready to go
forward and restore the Tar Heel standard to
its rightful place of supremacy in the natural
order of the Southeast's rugby hierarchy.
Although last spring's outing was a fine
one; A's 9-2-1, B's 9-0, there is little doubt
but that improvement may be had. The
schedule doesn't look too forboding. and the
toy
