PRICE Staff Writer On a warm, sunny Wednesday after noon, the N.C. State baseball team rode to Chapel Hill looking to play a little ball and catch some rays. But the Wolfpack could only get sun burned in the strike zone. The heat flew from pitcher Scott Bank head's fingers. Relying mainly on his fastball, the UNC sophomore righthander scorched the Pack with 1 1 strikeouts and limited them to just two hits as he hurled the Tar Heels to a 6-0 shutout his first complete game of the year. "My main goal was to throw seven strong innings," Bankhead said. "About the seventh I got tired, but when we went up 6-0, I said there's no way I'm going out." North Carolina went up 6-0 in the bot tom of the seventh when third baseman Jeff Hubbard, after chasing two bad pitches, cranked a three-run home run 335 feet over the right field fence, and solidly planted UNC into first place in the ACC. , For the Tar Heels, now 32-7, the win couldn't have come at a better time. State came into the game 7-2 in the . ACC, and the 6-2 Tar Heels were coming off a sloppy split with UNC-Wilmington. North Carolina, hoping to win 40 games to guarantee an at-large bid to the NCAA Tournament, had to win Wednesday to regain momentum. But standing in the way was lefthander Dan Plesac, a pre-season Ail-American who, like Bankhead, lives off his fastball. "We did not play well against UNC Wilmington," Coach Mike Roberts said. "I felt we werca little stale?' "The competition of facing a Plesac gets good hitters ready to hit. Good hitters like to. face good pitchers,", he. said. ,; " Enter Bankhead who, in retiring 16 bat ters in a row at one point and facing just : 29 batters all day, pitched his best game : ever at North. Carolina. "He just got stronger as he went into the ninth," catcher B.J. Surhoff said. "He wanted that complete game." Bankhead rolled into the ninth inning with eight strikeouts; then he knocked the Wolfpack down one by one. He struck out the first batter rightfielder Mark Caledonia in five pitches. Then Garrow meets with dean Monday By STUART TONKINSON StafT Writer Assistant professor of political science David J. Garrow will meet Monday with David H. Moreau, acting dean of the College of Arts and Sciences, in the next step in his quest for reappoint ment. , Following the conference, Moreau will have 10 days in which to send an evaluation of the matter to political science department Chairman James W. Prothro, according to the Trustee Policies and Regulations Governing Academic Tenure in the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, also known as the Tenure Docu ment. Moreau is acting dean of the College of Arts and Sciences while Dean Samuel Williamson is on leave. According to the document, after the conference Moreau must either agree with the-decision taken by Prothro not to recommend reappointment of Garrow, disagree with the decision, or recom mend reconsideration of the decision. " Moreau's evaluation will be "merely recommendatory and not binding upon the department chairman, nor final as to the faculty member," the Tenure Document states. Following receipt of the evaluation, Prothro will have five days to notify Garrow of his response to Moreau's suggestion. Garrow requested the conference with Moreau in a letter to Moreau dated Monday. Garrow asked in the letter that Moreau give "careful study" to his work and supporting documents, which include two books and a copy of Garrow's seven-page memo to Prothro defending his scholarship. On Monday Prothro denied Garrow's request for reappoint ment when his term ends in 1984, thereby upholding the decision taken by a faculty committee vote on March 21. Chicago's first black mayor Washington The Associated Press CHICAGO Harold Washington promised an "open-handed, healing" ad ministration Wednesday as Chicago's first black mayor, but his defeated Republican opponent skipped a promised unity luncheon and left for a Florida vacation. Bernard Epton, who lost a quest to be the city's first Republican mayor in 52 years, dispatched his brother to the re conciliation meeting with a note offering "heartfelt congratulations" and pledging his "total support." Epton also apologized for missing the luncheon he had said he would attend, win or lose. He said it was impossible for him to attend, and Washington said he wasn't offended. With 99 percent of the ballots counted, Washington has 656,727 or 51.4 percent of the votes to 617,159 or 43.3 percent of the votes for Epton and 3,725 votes for DTHChartes W.

And while Bankhead kept pounding the Wolfpack, Plesac pitched an erratic game, walking three men in a row in the second inning, striking out leftfielder Scott Johnson, and then walking Drex Roberts to bring in a run. Third baseman Jeff Hubbard, who finished with five RBIs on the day, promises improvements Socialist candidate Ed Warren. The election of Washington, a two term Democratic congressman, was hail ed by several of the nation's other black big-city mayors and national Democrats, who had rallied to his side as many Chicago party regulars defected to Epton. "It will stir up the hopes of black voters," said former United Nations am bassador Andrew Young, the second black to serve as mayor of Atlanta. A black civil rights leader said it indi cated renewed black interest in the political process. Some Democrats who bolted in the election remained on the sidelines, but Alderman Roman Pucinski, who had supported Epton, promised to work with Washington. Pucinski said the way the new mayor conducts his administration would be key to allaying fears among whites. The 60-year-old Washington captured virtually unanimous black support but " ; .. 3U K 1 U t ,: ,,,::,: :.:,,,,,v.:,.:.:,.,-, ., ?

Plesac settled down and retired the next ' 13 of 14 UNC batters, as he and Bankhead rocketed through a four-inning pitcher's duel. But waiting for Plesac in the seventh ' was the only batter who could tag the Wolfpack pitcher consistently Hub bard. After going O-for-4 against UNC-W the day before, Hubbard, the fastball hitter, "I continue to be optimistic about the procedure," Garrow said Wednesday. "As I see it, it's up to Dean Moreau what to do " next." - Moreau declined to comment on Garrow's case Wednesday because of state statutes prohibiting discussion of personnel mat ters. : Garrow said he appreciated the efforts of students who support him in his bid for reappointment. Faculty members of the political science and other departments have supported him as well, he said. " More than 600 signatures have been collected on petitions being circulated by students calling for Garrow's reappointment, said senior Lindsey Taylor, member of a student group supporting Garrow. "I've been really pleased with student invovlement," Taylor said. "There have been some students who have not signed (the petition), basically because they're unfamiliar with the case." Taylor said it was difficult to estimate faculty support for Gar row. The case has come to the attention of Student Government, and "there is a consensus that something should be done," said Student Body President Kevin Monroe. The case was discussed Monday in a cabinet meeting, and per-, sonal opinions of cabinet members were favorable of Garrow, Monroe said. "We are presently deciding what we can do," he added. Stu dent Government should be able to magnify concern about the issue, he said. ; ' Taylor said the committee, which sought signatures from students Wednesday in the Pit, would visit fraternities, sororities and dormitories today to enlist support for Garrow. won the backing of only 18 percent of white voters, according to an Associated Press-WMAQ-TV poll of voters leaving polling places. He said people are "a little tired" of the tensions that surfaced in his contest with Epton and promised to move . swiftly to bring the city together. "The damage I think can be assuaged very quickly by an open-hand, healing, unifying attitude," Washington said on CBS Morning News. "It will take a little more time, it won't go on ad infinitum." Nevertheless, Washington said Chicago residents must deal with the racial divi sions. "They can't bury it because that wouldn't solve the problem." The City Council met Wednesday and set April 29 for Washington's inaugura tion to the $60,000-a-year post. Chicago voters showed they believe "a mayor should be elected on the basis of ability, not on an irrelevant factor such as See CHICAGO on page 3 VSJ "i ) went foM -against Plesac, the fastbalT pitcher. This after Hubbard's batting average had dipped to an uncharacteristic .395. "It's just a matter of going back to basics," Hubbard said. "Hitting your pitch, not the pitcher's pitch. "I've never been more up for a game in my life," said Hubbard. "I like being challenged by fastball pitchers." Woodward presents 51st Weil Lecture By KEVIN JOHNSTON Staff Writer Describing the changing European view of America in - a series ; of metaphors, historian C. Vann Wood ward addressed almost 500 people in the 51st Weil Lecture in Hill Hall Wednes day night. "Europeans typically think of this country in figures of speech," said Woodward and added that this view was not demeaning but revealed a deeper, underlying truth. Woodward described ; the post revolution period of the 1700s as a time Avhen Europe questioned America's identity. He said that principal Europeans of the time viewed America as a Greek col ony that was .born of the most civilized countries in Europe. The idea of America as a young, . growing nation an idea which would persist throughout history, came into being during the 1700s. Woodward said that 18th century Europe viewed this country as 'The new Rome" and added that intellectuals in France compared America to a Roman foot soldier on the march to conqest of an empire. He quoted Rudyard Kipling s as say ing, "There is nothing in the world that America will not beat.'' The Roman metaphor .would exist throughout the remainder of the cen tury, he said. Woodward said the parallel growths of Russia and the United States as the two dominant powers in the world was noticed as early as 1835. The Russo American analogy was primarily viewed in terms of the nations similarities rather than their polarities in the early part of the century, Woodward said. But toward the middle of the century j attitudes changed. Woodward said. The Scandanvian view was that both of the powers assumed that Europe was on the decline, he said. A German historian of the day com pared Russia "as the evil genius of Buses se or Raleigh rally By JOEL BROADWAY Staff Writer The buses that will transport UNC students to the Coalition for Education rally in Raleigh today will not be blocked by Student Supreme Court action . ( Student Supreme Court Chief Justice J.B. Kelly said the court had decided not to issue a temporary restraining order to plaintiffs Phil Painter and Leake Little. Painter is a former Campus Governing Council member, and Little is a former member of the Student Attorney General's staff. The decision not to issue a restraining order was made Tuesday evening in a phone meeting held by the court, Kelly said. Although Painter's original request had been received too late to block the ex penditure of student funds for the buses, Painter had requested that the temporary , restraining order be changed to block the buses, Kelly said. "In this instance, if we issued a tem porary restraining order, the defendant (the Coalition for Education) would be deprived of ever having their event,'' Kel ly said. ' V - -'" ' Kelly said the Court had decided the circumstances did not meet the criteria for a temporary restraining order. ' The court's decision to invalidate the Student Activity Fee Increase referendum in February could not be compared to this situation, Kelly said. "In this case we faced a different situa tion," Kelly said. "In my view, we would never have been able to have a case and decide prior to Thursday." The Student Supreme Court will meet Friday to decide on what action will be taken on the case, Kelly said. "If we have a hearing and decide that Painter is correct, it's an empty victory for him," Kelly said. Painter said Wednesday that he agreed with the court's decision not to place the , emrrary .resteaining order on the buses before the event. "Issuing the restraining order would have been harmful to both sides," Painter said. "It would have been worse if they placed a restraining order on the buses and they found it (the expenditure) was constitutional." Jon Reckford, coordinator of the Coalition for Education, said he thought that the CGC decision to fund the buses had been within the rules and that the s 9 Historian C. Vann Woodward ...the lecture in Hill Hall history" to America as the guardian angel, Woodward said. He added that the principal feeling among Europeans was that the world was a stage being cleared for a great struggle. Woodward said America was lauded -as "the land of the future" in the 20th century. He quoted Alexis Tocqueville, a French social scientist, as saying, "democracy will be the governing power of world affairs. It is irresistible." Woodward said that these interpreta tions were looking at America as an idea, an abstraction, but not as a coun try. There is an abstract quality of patriotism in America a feeling that they cherished toward institutions, he said. "Places were interchangeable," Woodward said. Quoting George Smart, Woodward said, "America (to the Europeans) is a religion that no other country is." Woodward concluded by saying thai the idea ot America was interpreted to t to roll. t. mi W' . ' jmmmrmm.nm Jon Reckford CGC had not found the expenditure un constitutional. "It was up to the discretion of the CGC," Reckford said. "It was their deci sion, and we respected it'.-n ;v "rv Painter, however, questioned the CGC's interpretation of the amendment in the Student Constitution prohibiting the funding of political or religious events. "So far they have shown complete disregard for the new amendment," he said. Painter said he was confident that the case could set precedence and help the CGC avoid problems in the future. "By far, the most important thing is precedence," Painter said. Reckford said he felt it would be up to the CGC to decide these cases individual ly. ' "I think this is an exception, not the rule," Reckford said. Reckford said he had not heard of any opposition to. thexpenditure other .than Painter's and Little's. "I think it should be this kind of issue that Student Government should sup port," Reckford said. Painter said he felt the issue was not as simple as pro-education. "My father pays taxes in this state," Painter said. "It's not fair for him or me to pay for them going over there to lobby against raising the tuitions of out-of-state students." m Hl rvi Thomas lectured on Monday night was the 51st Weil Lecture mean "Americanization" in Europe and that critics and supporters of that trend used that metaphor to describe that process. The changing perceptions of the growth of America was seen .as a transformation in growth and purpose by the Europeans, Woodward said. "America is everywhere," Wood ward said. ''You just have to find it. The Weil lectures were established in 1914 through an endowment of $16,700 by Sol and Henry Weil of Goldsboro. The endowment was given under the stipulation that it should never be spent. Rather, the income has been invested and the investment income used anually to obtain a well-known speaker to ad dress the University students on American citizenship and civic pro blems that occur in American life. Past speakers include William H. Taft, former president of the United Slates, and Eleanor Roosevelt, former first lady and United Nations ambassador. tv
