Imposing costs and new requirements
spur financial worries for ACC schools

J7ij w fie second of three articles
examining the A CC today and its
concerns for the future.
Dy FETE MITCHELL
Assistant Sports Editor
To use commissioner Bob James
analogy, the National Collegiate Athletic
Association's relationship to the ACC is
much like that of the government in
Washington, D.C., to an American
citizen.
"It's a kind of uniform imposition of
authority , James said. More and more,
the conferences are coming under the
umbrella of the NCAA, just like citizens
undrr a government."
And just like the typical taxpayer,
athletic conferences like the ACC are
pulling-out their hair over jet-propelled
inflation and everything else that empties
the pocket these days.
The problem, in the end, is not whether
a school can sign that 6-foot-10 center
right out from under Lefty DrieseH's
nose, or whether it can squeeze a high
school football All-America into college.
The problem is staying in the black,
finding new avenues to generate revenue
for constantly expanding programs.
"We are fighting, as a conference, to
secure new means of obtaining revenue,
James said. "Ticket prices can't be raised
any higher. Costs are increasing at a
tremendous rate, and in four years, a

GREESNBORO (AP)-The ACC will
bypass its own officials in favor of those
from another conference for the second
consecutive year in the ACC basketball
tournament next month.
Norvall Neve, supervisor of officials
for the ACC, said athletic directors from
the conference will vote during a meeting
in Greensboro Wednesday on a proposed
exchange of officials with the Southwest
Conference.
"At a meeting in May, the ADs asked
us to arrange an exchange with another

With only two meets remaining before
the North Carolina AIAW gymnastics
tournament March 2, UNC women's
gymnastics coach Ken Ourso said
Tuesday the Tar Heels are progressing as
scheduled. However, according to the
schedule of progress outlined by Ourso at
the start of the season, the team shifted
into reverse this past weekend against
Western Carolina.
Before the start of the season Ourso
said the team was aiming for 124 points in
its first meet and planned to better this
score meet by meet.

While fighting that world, the
conference has one of its biggest financial
problems ever heaped on top, James calls
it the "ominous cloud of Title IX.
A December 1978, ruling by the U.S.
Department of Health, Education and
Welfare calls for "per capita funding of
men's and women's collegiate sports by
the 1979-80 school year. The average
amount spent on each male athlete must
equal that spent on each female.
Basketball and football, the two big
spenders and revenue generators, are not
excluded from the new requirements.
This would radically alter the balance of
spending on male and female sports.
James says he thinks the mandate is
thoroughly intolerable in that it would
soon dismantle the conference's existing
conference, Neve said Monday. "We
have arranged an exchange with the
SWC. I expect the ADs to approve the
exchange.
The ACC tournament will be held in
Greensboro March 1 through 3, with the
winner receiving a bid to the NCAA
playoffs.
The ACC passed up its own officials
for last year's tournament, causing a
furor among some of the referees.
OfficiaTs from the Southeastern
Conference were used in the 1978 ACC
tournament.
The Tar Heels scored only 121.05
points in their first meet, but have
improved meet by meet en route to four
victories and one second-place finish. The
team peaked two weeks ago at Towson
State College with a score of 125.75.
Last weekend the Tar Heels scored
only 121 points in defeating Western
Carolina. However, Ourso said he was
pleased.
"The girls were a little fiat last weekend
because we knew we could beat Western
without scoring a whole lot of points.
Plus we slacked off in practice last week,"

athletic programs.
"I know that we're better off than 90
percent of the other schools," he said.
"And we don't have the money.
"I object to HEW's unfair intrusion
into the educational affairs of
universities. If athletic programs received
federal aid it might be different, James
said. "I'm for promoting women's
athletics in an orderly fashion, but to
think athletics is sex-neutral like all H EW
areas of business is pathetically
ridiculous.
James sees particular difficulties for
the conference in that HEW has regional
offices in Atlanta and Washington.
"Would one have jurisdiction over
Maryland, Virginia and North Carolina
schools and other over Clemson and
Georgia Tech?" James asks. "Wouldn't
there be different enforcement, teams
within a conference being treated
differently?"
In addition, the ACC's rich
endowment program could be affected.
At present, donations to athletic
programs can be earmarked for a
particular sport, like giving $50,000
specifically to help the N.C. State
basketball program. You can't specify an
individual. But if women's sports require
a much larger chunk of money than
before, some of the endowments
earmarked for men's sports might have to
be transferred over to provide for a
women's team.
"It's a unique thing ih the ACC the
willingness of individuals to contribute so
much. I doubt we would be in the black
without them, James said. "I assume
most of the contributors are male. Will
they agree to contribute to women's
sports? We don't know. If not, the
problem could be devastating to the
conference.
The private institutions such as Duke
and Wake Forest will feel it first; they're
already hard-pressed to provide'
scholarships and facilities to the degree
the state-funded universities can.
"Where in the hell they'll get the money
to provide for increased spending on non
revenue sports I don't know," James said.
"I pray that reasonable people at H EW
will weigh the complaints," James said. "1
don't think the United States public will
sit by and watch the" programs
disintegrate."

Catamounts
The Western Carolina
Catamounts went back- to
Cullowhee dazed Tuesday night
after being stunned by the UNC
women's basketball team 82-62.
The game was not as close as the
score indicates as the Tar Heels
. held 28- and 30-point leads
through much of the second half.
Neither team was able to
" establish itself early in the game as
turnovers plagued the first 10
minutes. UNC had a 12-1 1 lead at
the 10:39 mark and held the Cats
scoreless for the next 6V2 minutes.
Carolina ran the score to 39-1 1
before WCU scored again with
four minutes left in the first half.
The two teams exchanged baskets
and the half ended with a 46-20
UNC lead:
The second half went much the
same as the last 10 minutes of the
first as the Tar Heels were afce to
run their fast break with ease.
Although her team got off to a
slow start. Tar Heel Coach
Jennifer Alley said she saw spurts
of optimism. "I thought Cathy
Shoemaker's performance was one
of the better performances she's
had this year," Alley said.
Shoemaker led all scorers in the
game with 16 points while Bernie
McGlade added 14 for the Heels.

Sports Editor
Parkhill, Parkhil! and Brennan.
Sounds like a ritzy law firm, only these
fellows hold court in gymnasiums, their
judges wear striped shirts and their clients,
are college kids.
And the three of them are quite
concerned about their case at hand,
planned for 7:30 tonight in Carmichael
Auditorium.
Bruce Parkhill is the boss. Younger
brother Barry and Tom Brennan are the
assistants. Together they coach William
and Mary's young basketball team, an 8
13 conglomerate of freshmen and
sophomores with only a few
upperclassmen around to tie things,
together.
There's only a couple of guys left off the
Indian team that ambushed the Tar Heels
last season in Williamsburg, and the
younger Parkhill is the only fellow
associated with the team who's had any
experience in Carmichael Auditorium.
1973, for trivia buffs, was the year
Parkhill and his companions from
Charlottesville, Va., came to Chapel Hill
to battle the nation's No. 3 team. The Tar
Heels were guarding a nine-game winning
streak and a 23-game home winning
streak. "We didn't exactly blow them out,
but we played a pretty good game,"
Parkhill recalled Tuesday.
Indeed. Virginia's basketball team
returned home with an 84-78 victory, and
Parkhill is looking forward to another
trip to Blue Heaven. '
"Carmichael's a great place to play," he
said. "The fans are excellent; They're not
only loud, but they're good fans. They
seem to be more knowledgeable about the
game than the average fan."
The Indians realize they've got a tough
task, ahead. Three freshmen, one
sophomore and one senior isn't an ideal
lineup to throw up against the nation's
fourth-ranked team.
"We're really young," Parkhill said.
"We've made a lot of turnovers, a lot of
mistakes that young players make. But
we're much better now than we were a
month ago. With a couple added players
through a good recruiting year 1 think
we'll be okay.
"Your're talking about a mighty long
shot for us to come down there and win,
but we've got absolutely nothing to lose.
, It'll be a great experience for our kids.
Win or lose we're looking forward to it.
There's no reason for us to be scared or
tight. We just want to have a good time
apd get a good experience out of it."

Wn' basketball at home vs. William
and Mary. 7:30 p.m. In Carmichael
Auditorium.
The Indians plan to start 6-foot-2
senior Billy Harrington (10 points per
game) at point guard; 6-4 freshman Billy
Barnes (7.5 ppg) at big guard; 6-10
freshman Dan Bowen ( 1 1 ppg) at center;
and 6-5 sophomore Scott Whitley (11
ppg) and 6-6 freshman Dale Moats (5.5)
at forward.
None of the five started last season.
William and Mary's only returning player
from last season's starting team, 6-9
center Tom O'Gorman, injured his knee
in preseason work and was lost for the
season.
On defense the Indians use a variety of
sets and are deliberate offensively. "We
try to work for the best shot," Parkhill
said. "We can't run up and down the floor
with teams like Virginia, Virginia Tech
and Carolina. We're very patient."
