Carolina faces Indians
in first on-the-roadgame
The Wake Forest pep band learned
Friday night the price that must be paid
for heckling.
During the Carolina-Duke game, the
band passed the time before the Wake
N.C. State game yelling crude
comments at Carolina's basketball
players. They all thought it was
hilarious until Phil Ford dove after a
loose ball.
Ford cleared the press table
separating the band from the playing
floor, tearing one reporter's notes to
shreds, and flew into the midst of the
band's drum section, bending the rim
and crinkling the head on one of the
band's drums.
After two highly intense games in the
Big Four Tournament this weekend,
Carolina takes a breather against
William and Mary at 8 p.m. Wednesday
in Williamsburg, Va.

senior forward John Lowenhaupt, who
is averaging over 19 points per game.
But the Tar Heels can't take too much
of a breather against the Indians. They
are the team which took nationally
ranked Wake Forest last year into
overtime before losing 90-84 in
Williamsburg.
The Indians are 4-1 so far this season
with their only loss to St. Joseph's in the
finals of the Spider Classic.
Carolina proved over the weekend, in
wins over Duke and N.C. State to win
the Big Four, that it doesn't have to rely
on its top five players to get results.
Reserves played an important role in
both games, particularly in the second
game when starter Tom Zaliagjris was
in a slump and Ford was having early
trouble.
The backups added 14 points during
Carolina's 79-66 win over Duke in the
opening round of the Big Four tourney,
including six by freshman Al Wood.
Wood also was second on the team in
rebounds, pulling down five. Mike
O'Koren led with 11 rebounds. Jeff
Wolf, who backs up Rich Yonakor at
center, saw 22 minutes of action during
the game but scored only two points.
In the 87-82 win over N.C. State,
reserves scored 25 points. Wood put in a
good performance with 12 points and 12
rebounds and 25 minutes of playing
time. John Virgil, who had a good
tournament, picked up seven points in
the second game while Wolf had six.
"Our team has surprised me so far,"
Carolina Coach Dean Smith said. "We
have played better than I thought we
would at this stage of the year. I think we
will be even better once I decide how our
lineup is going to be as far as
substitutions are concerned."
Thegame against William and Mary is
the first road game for Carolina after
games in the Charlotte Coliseum and
Greensboro. Carolina faces Rochester
in Carmichael Auditorium Saturday
night, then takes on No. 7-ranked
Cincinnati Dec. 17 in Greensboro.

UNC swimmers travel to ECU meet
UNC Head Swimming Coach Frank
Comfort is learning quickly about Carolina's
athletic reputation in his first season in
Chapel Hill. He is taking his men's and
women's team to East Carolina for a dual
meet with the Pirates at 7:30 p.m. Tuesday.
"The thing about East Carolina is and
I'm just beginning to understand this that
to beat Carolina in any sport is a great
achievement," Comfort said.
Pirate swimmers will have their work cut
out for them. In Saturday's Penn State
Relays, the Heels finished first with 312
points; ECU was a distant fourth with 192
points.
The two schools pitted their women's
teams against each other this weekend also.
While Carolina squeeked past N.C. State by
a mere point to win the North Carolina
AIAW championships, East Carolina
finished in last place.
In fact, East Carolina never has beaten
North Carolina in swimming. The men have
a clean 28-0 record, the women's record is 2
0. Comfort is well aware of this.
"I sure as heck don't want to be the first
coach to lose to them," he said. "The
women's meet will be no problem at all."
The East Carolina women's team is
struggling to build a program in its second
season.
Comfort is a bit more wary of ECU's men,
as he's heard rumors that the Pirate
swimmers may be shaved and tapered,
suggesting the emphasis they are putting on
the meet.
"If they shave for us, it'll be as tough a
meet as we'll swim all year," Comfort said.

Three officials
Less fatigue and better coverage
are aims of experimental system
By PETE MITCHELL
Stiff Writer
Having three officials on the court this year will mean several things during
Atlantic Coast Conference basketball games.
Above all, three-man officiating allows full coverage of the entire floor at all
times, especially during fast breaks, a definite weakness in the two-man system.
There is a feeling among the officials that they will do a better job, according to
Superintendent of Officials, Norvall Neve, and all seven ACC coaches agreed by
voting unanimously to adopt the three-man system this year.
"I've been for it because it's better for basketball," said UNC's Dean Smith. "The
game has changed so much that you need three officials to do a halfw ay decent job.
Every team will have good breaks and bad breaks. Hopefully, they will even out."
The tendency is to think that more fouls will be called and more whistles blown
with three referees rather than two. But last year the Big Ten experimented with it
during 43 conference games and found that on the average, fewer fouls were called
in three-man games than two. It seems that having a third positioned official acts as
a deterrent to players' willingness to foul.
The fatigue factor with officials often goes unnoticed, and the newly adopted
system should provide better coverage with much less effort. The three will form a
triangle with one stationed along the offensive baseline, one close to the sideline and
even with the foul line and the third out near the 28-foot hash mark.
The ACC's famed spread offenses can be covered more adequately this way and
there is bound to be less physical strain placed on the men in the striped shirts. I hree
alert, less tired officials are better prepared to make crucial calls toward the end of a
game than two constantly moving, fatigued officials.
With these advantages, it's hard to understand why it took so long to develop.
The expense factor is one reason, but Neve stated that "a system of mechanics and
procedures which closely resembled the two-man system has never been available
before now.
"Officials can now work in a two-man game one night and a three-man game the
next without radical adjustments,' he said. The new system has not been approved
nationally yet, but at least referees who work both types of games can now be
concerned with other things besides floor positioning.
The Big Ten experimented with it for one year, dropped the third official the next
year and then picked the system up again last year. The Big Eight also plans to give it
a try this season.
ACC coaches and players look optimistically toward its beginning this year,
hoping that the addition of one man will provide more control over the game and
give both the players and spectators a more accurate picture.
