The Blue ' Devils, playing .inspired basketball before an especially vociferous home crowd of 8,564, led during the first half at 6-4, and then lost the lead until near the end of the half. In the interim Carolina led by as many as seven points. Duke broke a 25-25 tie when star guard Vince Taylor stole the ball at the Carolina end and took it all the way to the basket himself, making a layup and drawing a foul from Jim. Braddock. , Taylor make the free throw for a three point play and Duke held the lead for the final two minutes of the half; finishing at 32-31. : - Much of puke -s ;. first-half success could be credited to a Hghtfy packed zone .defense, which did a good job of denying Carolina's big'" inside players, Sam Perkins and James Worthy. , "They had it packed in pretty good, so there wasn't much inside," said Perkins, who shot the ball only twice in the first half and finished the game with nine points. "But they let us have the outside jumpers. We weren't afraid to take the outside shot." r ' Worthy made the most Of the oppor tunities he did have, going 4-of-5 from the field in the half, and guards Michael Jordan and Jimmy Black shot well from the outside, keeping the Tar Heels close. LONDON Medical, food and1 clothing shortages in Poland have become critical, but U.S. aid should not be resumed until martial law is lifted and jailed Solidarity leaders are freed, U.S. Sen. Larry Pressler, said Sunday. , "I do not think we can (resume aid) until the prisoners are released and until we are sure that some of the repressive measures that are gong on are ended," the South Dakota Democrat said after a four-day visit to Poland. Stopping here , on his . way back to Washington, Pressler? fold' reporters -at Heathrow Airport that his trip convinced him the Soviet Union was behind the im position of martial law in Poland. Presi dent Ronald Reagan expressed the same opinion when he imposed economic sanc tions on Poland and the Soviet Union last month after the Dec. 13crackdqwn on the independent labor " movement Solidarity. i. v presiw&nt cunai :- By KEN MINGIS !.: DTH Staff VWKm'-j'ii'j Summey Orr, a junior journalism and political science major from Monroe, an nounced Sunday his candidacy for stu dent body president. . :f,i '. "I think in general, if elected; I want Student Government to be much more active than reactive," he said; "It needs to be more vocal and to solicit student ideas and complaints; It should be not so . ' much to govern as to represent." Orr said one thing he wanted to see was the creation of an academic complaint committee to, listen jo student com.- , plaints. .. : v: . ; ;V- ' '--' . "The committee would give students' a place to go," he said.; "It can work to relieve academic problems that have never been focused on." Orr said he wanted to build on the ex ecutive liaison program begun this year by Student Government. . . "The executive liaison program started , with a bang, : but then,, kind of died down," Orr said .'TjseJ liaisons never really got an idea of what they were doing ; V The second half wasn't so close. Black broke a 38-38 tie with an 18-foot jumper with 15:38 left. "Then the Heels, led by the. sharp shooting of Jordan, moved out to a 21-point lead before coach Dean Smith cleared his bench. Jordan scored 12 of his team high 19 points in the rally. . "Jordan was unbelievable," Duke coach Mike Krzyzewski said after the game. "He was great for the entire game, but for a two or three-minute.stretch he pulled it away for them." Taylor led all scores with 22 points. "I'm going out there and trying to be a . leader," he said. "Our young players were in awe of Carolina, but they have to realize they (Carolina) dress out in uniforms just like us." . Taylor had praise for the Carolina -big men he helped shut off in the first half. "They got the power company down low," he said, while also praising Carolina's ability to deny the outside shot. "We gave it a good try and hope we will improve.!' V Krzyzewski contributed to his team's demise with a technical foul during a se cond half time out. Duke had called time with the ball and a chance to cut Carolina's lead to nine. Jimmy Black made one technical free throw and Carolina scored on the ensuing possession to up the lead to 14 at 56-42. Krzyzewski was not any more pleased about the technical after the game. "You'll have to ask the official," he said. "I don't know why he called it." The crowd was unusually loud, even for a Duke crowd, and even before the . technical. But most of the Tar Heels said they were not intimidated. "It didn't faze me," Perkins said. "I'm used to it now." Pressler said this interpretation of mar tial law also was shared by Poland's Roman Catholic primate, Archbishop Jozef Glemp. "Clearly the Soviets are behind it," the senator said. "The people believe that. The primate believes that. They told me. But the Soviets operate in a very invisible, mysterious way." Pressler chairs a Senate subcommittee that watches over the U.S. Food for Peace program. He attended a meeting or the Food and Agricultural Organization in Rome last week and met Pope John Paul II, who urged him to visit Poland, the senator said. The pontiff feared star vation in his homeland, Pressler said. During , the visit to Polssd, Pressler said he met with six senior government officials, -including Secretary Stefan Olszowski of the Communist Party's cen tral committee. But he said he refused to c , Gumrnoy Orr or where they were going. It is a vital communication link between government and students." ' Orr said he also wanted to see a Text book Review Board set up to review the edition changes requested by professors. "Students get nailed when they have to pay $20 for a sixth edition, when they can get the fifth edition of a book for $3 at the APO(Alpha Phi Omega) book sale," Orr said.' - Orr said his work as an executive assis tant to Student Body President Scott Norberg and as director of the Rape Assault Prevention Escort Service would be helpful as president. "if elected, I can step right in and pro vide the continuity that's needed in Stu dent Government to build on things and vadd programs," Orr said.

Carolina upped its record, 13-0, with a 73-63 win But freshman Jordan admitted he did notice the noise. "I've never seen a crowd like that in my life," he said. ;"They really fought hard, the Duke team,"; Smith said. "I think Mike (Krzyzewski) has done an extremely good job with them. We just had a little more talent than they did." Carolina's next action will be Thursday meet with Gen. Wojciech Jaruzelski for fear the Poles could use it "as some kind of propaganda that things are back to normal." Pressler said food, medical and clothing shortages have become "critical, particularly in the Baltic area ... I was told by the primate that poultry and livestock herds will not survive the winter." When he visited a Warsaw super market, Pressler said, he found there was no meat for sale. Clothing and shoes were in short supply, he added, and many areas limit shoes to one pair per person. The senator was asked about a state ment made Sunday by Polish Am bassador to London Stefan Staniszcewski that Solidarity leader Lech Walesa would be released "in the near future." He responded: "1 believe Walesa will be released in some form, but not compete ly. It will be in a mixed way."

But two other U.S. presidents slept, studied and ate on campus during their student days at UNC. When Gerald R. Ford became president, rumors circulated here that Ford had attended UNC. The Alumni Office sent Ford a questionnaire, asking him to clear up, the matter. It turned out Ford had attended the 1938 sum mer session. Ford, a law student, lived in Can Residence Hall. His classmates later remembered him as friendly and good-natured, but not as a heavy partier. Ford returned during World War II in a Navy program and lived in a house with some friends.

The room, now the office of Director of Developmental Affairs Richard Hayes, overlooks the Y-Court. . Polk's roommate Mosely remembered: - "I would like to look into the room occupied by President Polk and myself; where we spent many pleasant hours, in reading together the Latin and Greek authors; and in demonstrating the proposi tions, conic sections; and in being the first class that every studied that branch of mathematics." Polk, evidently a "booking phenom," graduated at the top of his class. He was the 1 1th president of the United States.

J I s ' i J The Associated Press Strange Chinook winds gusting to 125 mph Sunday wrecked homes and busi nesses in Colorado while persistent Siberian cold dropped temperatures to all-time lows in some Midwestern cities. "Die death toll reached 261 in more than a week of harsh winter weather, called the coldest of the century. But the trend of harsh weather was pre dicted to end for North Carolinians as the week progressed. The National Weather Service pre dicted Sunday that southwest winds will bring mild air and temperature readings . in the 60s by the middle of this week. "The warm weather will be around for a while," said Mike Sabones; a meteoro logist at the National Weather Service office in Raleigh. "I don't see anything in the near future to warrant any more of these artic outbreaks." The lows Sunday night were expected to remain in the teens and 20s before the warming trend begins Monday afternoon, with highs in the 40s. There could be some temperatures in the 50s along the coast Monday. The prospect of warmer weather would . be welcomed by many of those in the East and Midwest who have witnessed the as saults on the record books by the bitter cold of the last several weeks. The beer city of Milwaukee, at 20 de grees below zero, suffered its coldest day since the weather service started keeping records 1 1 1 years ago as temperatures fell below zero from Dixie to New England and across the Midwest. The mercury dipped to 22 below at Akron, Ohio, breaking the all-time record of minus 21 set in 1963. Thousands of people were without power and many highways were impass able across the Midwest. Many people spent the night in emergency shelters.

It was so cold in Embarrass, Minn., that the thermometer broke at 44 degrees below zero and the local weather watcher could only estimate the temperature at minus 52. International Falls, Minn., had an official reading of 45 below zero. In Chicago, where it was 23 below, Mayor Jane Byrne ordered the city parks department to open all fieldhouses as emergency shelters. In New York City, where it was a rela mild 1 below, city officials got 2,300 com . plaints Sunday morning from apartment dwellers with no heat. But in Colorado, it was like someone turned on a giant blow dryer as warm Chinook winds howled out of the can yons on the eastern slopes of the Rockies with destructive hurricane force, causing widespread damage in the cities of Boulder and Loveland.

In Loveland, 60 miles north of Denver, two small mobile homes were knocked several yards off their foundations and " three others, along with two traditional houses, were seriously damaged. About 25 people had to spend the night' at friends' homes, according to Larimer County Sheriff Sgt. Pat McCosh. Officials closed a 30-mile section of U.S. Highway 287 north of Longmont, Colo., because power lines were lying across the roadway. The high winds, which warmed Denver from 22 degrees at 1 a.m. to. 56 degrees at 4:30 a.m., also flipped over four single engine planes at Boulder Airport and left 'one Boulder County sheriffs deputy with minor injuries when the windshield of his car blew out. "We've got power outages, buildings under construction tfrqt are completely , blown away, roofs off, windows out," said Beverly Crosky of the Boulder police department.
