Wrestlers end preseason with Southern open Carolina's wrestling team concludes its preseason schedule Friday and Saturday in the Southern Open at Chattanooga. Tenn. The tournament, composed of 15-20 teams, will feature a number of the nation's finest collegiate wrestlers, along with several" post-graduates and former Olympians. Oklahoma State, ranked nationally in the top five. Big Ten powers Indiana and Indiana State, and Southeastern Conference members Kentucky, Tennessee and Alabama head the list of collegiate entries. In addition, Athletes In Action, a team composed of several former national champions and former Olympians, will compete. "The main reason I'm taking these guys to ' this tournament," said UNC Wrestling Coach Bill Lam, "is that this is one more preseason tournament with real tough competition. We won't be able to tell who will do good until we see what wrestlers will be in what weight classes. But it'll give us good competition before we start our dual meets." Steve Conkwright, after taking first place in the 118-pount class last weekend in the Carolina Invitation, will start at 118, while David Breece, also a winner in the Carolina Invitational, will start at 126. Chris Conkwright will wrestle 134; Tim Reaume and Dave Juergens will share 142; Jeff Reintgen will start at 150; Mike Benzel and Joe Ryan will be at 158; Carl Hoffman will wrestle 167; Dean Prior and Bucky Guadreau will start at 177; and Dave Casale w ill wrestle 190. The Tar Heels travel to Pembroke State Dec. 2 for a dual meet.

Grit your teeth. Grandma, pumpkin pie and Thanksgiving may force you to miss the opening Carolina varsity basketball game this season. The University of North Carolina, ranked fourth nationally by United Press and fifth by Associated Press in preseason polls, opens its season at 8 p.m. Saturday against Howard University in Carmichael Auditorium. The UNC team also plays an intrasquad game here at 8:30 Wednesday, but most students will leave Chapel Hill when the Thanksgiving holiday officially begins at 1 p.m.lhe same day. UNC has five of its top eight from last season's Atlantic Coast Conference Tournament Championship team. UNC Head Coach Dean Smith said he is encouraged by the Heels recent win over the Russians, and predicts he'll have three All America candidates in Mitch Kupchak, Phil Ford and Walter David if UNC again wins the ACC. "We will be the same type team. On offense we will still use the freelance passing game, but we've added a freelance dribbling game for a young man named Phil Ford," said Smith. Howard visited Carmichael Auditorium last year, as the first predominantly black school on a Tar Heel basketball schedule. It got a rather cruel introduction by scoreboard standards, leaving Chapel Hill with a 109-67 defeat. Carolina dominated the Bisons on the inside, as Kupchak had 20 points. Tommy LaGarde had 18, and now graduated Ed Stahl had one of his best games with 18. Walter Davis also had 17. Kupchak, LaGarde and Davis are back this year, with Ford and John Kuester at the guard slots. The Bisons' leading scorer is Chapel Hill native Vadnay Cotton, who averaged 17 points last season as a first team all-MEAC performer. Cotton is a 6-6 senior forward. At guard, 6-5 junior Angelo Council averaged nine points last season, and at the other forward, sophomore Gerald Glover averaged 14. Susan Shackelford Women set Blue-White The UNC women's basketball team kicks off the 1975-76 season with its annual Blue White game Saturday at 6 p.m. in Carmichael Auditorium. Joan Leggett, who averaged 7.8 points and 8.2 rebounds per game last year and was slated to start at the center position this year, may be out for the season w ith a broken w rist suffered in practice Friday. Cathy Shoemaker, a freshman and the first and only scholarship player on the team, will replace Leggett at center. The Blue-White teams for Saturday's game will consist of team members Mika Long, Gay Scott, Lisa Dodson, Joyce Patterson and Robin Miller. Also playing well be Courtney Peck, Fran Hardison, Cathy Daniels, Cindy Kline, and Linda Matthews. Leggett s injury The only "fastbreak" Joan Leggett got was in her wrist. She overran a lead pass and hit an unpadded brick wall of Women'sGymnasium at UNC. Her palms served as a cushion between her body and the wall, which is only 58 inches from the end line of the basketball court. She'll most likely miss the 1975-76 UNC season. Her broken wrist occurred in practice last Friday, and left UNC Head Coach Angela Lumpkin with a 5-1 1 void at the starting center position. Built in 1942, the gym has been a pitiful excuse as a facility for women students, whose number has grown from 827 that initial year to about 6,000 this year. A new physical education-intramural complex has been on annual capital improvement requests since the'60's, but Leggett's situation dramatizes the need. In the last session of the North Carolina General Assembly, the gym complex once again laced funding. though planning money was appropriated in 1974. The next time the question comes up is Mar. 23, 1976, when the state's voters may okay funding by voting for a $43 million dollar, bond issue. The complex is the most expensive item among the 15 in the package, w hich includes improvements for most of the 16 Commentary consolidated university campuses. The gym's cost is $5.3 million. Women's Gym now has over 1,000 physical education students using it regularly, while in '42 there were only a fifth as many 200. The gym is like a steamy sardine can, where only 84 dressing lockers, 5 14 baskets and 19 showers indicate the demand for more space. Leggett's injury also relates to a question of facility usage by the women's athletic program. The Carolina Invitational Wrestling Tournament was underway in Carmichael but allowed the varsity men's basketball team a 2-hour practice period. Lumpkin said she asked for Carmichael but was not given the same privilege. She noted that a list of facility priorities is contained in her coaching handbook, saying that games in the Auditorium have priority over practices. Yet Smith held practice. These issues of poor facilities point to what Title IX, the federal legislation barring sex discrimination, involves. Good reasons may exist for having too little space or letting the men have Carmichael, but needs of women students must be equally considered. Susan Shackelford Sports briefs Swimmers test Terps The UNC men's swimming team will be trying to snap a Maryland 1 1-home meet winning streak when it travels to College Park today. The Terps had a 1 3 meet w inning streak broken the last time they entertained the Tar Heels. The UNC team is looking to the Maryland meet as an important pre-Christmas meet after an impressive victory over Duke. "Maryland finished in the ACC behind UNC last year and they are a very competitive team," said UNC Head Coach J im Wood. "Two years ago w hen we broke their streak, we won by only tw o points. Their pool is very old and it's INUNB A t- U? I rvi UA K SHI 1H f H PIA7A I i ... w..w, CHAPEL HILLI a tough place for visiting teams to swim." The UNC team finished third in the three-meter diving competition at the ACC relay meet in Raleigh last Sunday. Alan Knight was the Tar Heels top finisher in the Penn State Intercollegiate Fencing Tournament held over the weekend. Knight came in fifth in the epee competition. Foil Ken Williams was the only other Carolina fencer in the finals. Freshman Catherine Swan led the women's team, advancing to the semifinals. fi(l) I'll!
