Marines leave Beiru actions divide airoor UNC gets a scare, but still wins By KURT ROSENBERG Assistant Sports Editor CLEMSON, SC. The sign alongside U.S. Highway 76 some 10 miles from Littlejohn Coliseum offered good advice to the nation's top-ranked college basketball team. In big letters it reads, "BEWARE NOW ENTERING TIGER COUNTRY," illustrated by an intimidating picture of the Clemson mascot baring its fangs. It didn't seem to matter that North Carolina was 23-1, undefeated in the ACC and possibly one of the finest col lege teams to ever play the game. Or that Clemson had lost its last 10 conference games, had a lock on last place in the ACC and had lost nine straight games to UNC. What mattered was that the Tar Heels were in Tiger Country, and although they left with an 82-71 win, it was a dangerous safari and the game was closer than the final score indicated. This wasn't Greensboro, where UNC jumped out to a 22-point halftime lead on Feb. 1 and won easily the last time the teams met. Here, Anthony Jenkins, Vin cent Hamilton, Murray Jarman and their Clemson teammates were displaying their dunking artistry in warmups, hoping that emotion would cany them for 40 minutes against a taller and more talented team. It almost did. "They're always ready to play us whenever we come down here," Brad Daugherty said. "A lot of people underestimate them. They're probably the worst. team in the conference, but it doesn't matter. You've still gotta play hard." The Tar Heels played hard. They were executing at close to their usual level. But Clemson rose above its usual level, which isn't bad, despite what some people may think "When North Carolina is involved, teams just get up for the game," said Sam Perkins, who scored 15 of his 21 points in the second half to help put the game away. "Everybody's up for North Carolina and we've just got to be wary of it." They may have been wary of it, but in the first half, it appeared there wasn't much they could do about it. The Tigers took advantage of UNC's man-to-man trapping defense, moving the ball around the perimeter for open jump shots. Hamilton hit five first-half shots, jumpers that started from above his head, . arched toward the ceiling and fell softly through the net. Jenkins came off the bench and made all four of his shots in the half and the Tigers, who hit 67 per cent of their shots for the half, went up by six with 4:27 left. "When they're shooting like that, there's not a whole lot you can do," Matt Doherty said. Except to copy them. North Carolina was even hotter in the first half, shooting 68 percent from the field, as Michael Jor dan made five of seven shots, Doherty hit four of five and Steve Hale was three for three. In the final minute, Jordan hit a 15-footer, then stole the ball and broke away for an acrobatic reverse dunk and Doherty scored on a fast break layup to turn a 38-34 deficit into a 40-38 UNC lead at halftime. The Tar Heels were able to push the ball inside more in the second half, as Perkins took charge underneath. He scored eight of UNC's first 10 points of the half on an assortment of driving See TIGERS on page 2 The Associated Press BEIRUT, Lebanon The U.S. Marines pulled out of Beirut on Sunday and an hour later the battleship New Jersey turned its big guns on Syrian anti aircraft gunners that had fired on an American reconnaissance jet. The jet was not hit and no Syrian casualties were reported in the fire , from the New Jersey's 16-inch guns, the largest on any ship in the world. Fighting between the Moslems and Christians kept up all day along the "green line" that divides Beirut, and police said 13 people were killed and 47 wounded. The fighting has mounted steadily since Friday's short-lived Saudi mediated cease-fire. An orderly on duty at Christian east Beirut's Roum Hospital said an American priest was killed by shellfire and brought to the hospital about 6:30 p.m. Sunday. The orderly, who asked not to be identified, would not give the name of the priest, but said the victim was about 60 years old. Police sources said the incident occur red near Sadey Church in east Beirut's Ashrifiyeh neighborhood. The report was first carried on Christian Phalange Party's Voice of Lebannon radio. A soldier of the French peacekeeping CQntingentjwas "killed instantly" Sunday when a mortar shell struck close to a French army post in Beirut's southern suburb of Tayouneh, a spokesman said. His name was not immediately released. The evacuation of about 1 ,000 Marines began just after midnight Sunday and was completed in about 12 hours, with the frontline combat companies Echo and Fox being taxied out by helicopter. The last of the Marines' amphibious personnel carriers rolled into the Mediter ranean surf at 12:27 p.m. with Staff Sgt. Jerry Elokonich, 32, of Toledo, Ohio, waving from atop the vehicle. The Beirut airport positions the Marines vacated were divied up quickly between the Lebanese army and Moslem militiamen, with the key positions going to the army. The militiamen raised their green nvw th western non'motor rf the airport base and also claimed part of the coastal highway. "Good for them, good for us, good for everybody," said militiaman Abu Mustafa, 25, as he gestured at the depar ting Marines and climbed into one of the elaborately sandbagged fortifications. With the Marines, the Italians and the British gone, only a 1,500-member French contingent is left of the Multina tional Force in Beirut. It is deployed along the "green line." ; About 100 Marines remain to guard the U.S. Embassy offices on Beirut's nor .thern coastline,, and 80 U.S. Army ad-. visers and seven staff members remain at the Lebanese Defense Ministry. As the Marines were pulling out, Syrian anti-aircraft fire forced a U.S. reconnaissance jet to fly back to sea. The New Jersey responded with shelling of Syrian positions in the Metn mountains northeast of Beirut. Huge balls of fire billowed from the 16-inch guns of the New Jersey, lying off the coast south of Beirut. A military spokesman in Damascus said there were no Syrian casualties. The New Jersey fired "over 10 rounds," said U.S. Army Col. Ed McDonald, 46, of Rochester, N.Y. Western reporters also saw the battleship firing what appeared to be its five-inch guns. The Christian "Voice of Lebanon" said two American ships fired 49 shells at Syrian missiles. . It was the first time since Feb. 8 that the U.S. Navy had fired its biggest guns. On Saturday night, the USS Caron fired more than 70 rounds of its five-inch guns in response to what a Marine spokesman said was anti-government militia fire on Beirut. The Marines were happy to be leaving. "All these people want us to do is go home," said Gunnery Sgt. Michael McGilveray, 32, of Montgomery, Ala. Marine Brig. Gen. James R. Joy, 46, of Conception, Miss., who is in com mand of the remaining Americans, said ibMe positions at the airport had been turned over to the Lebanese army . UNC takes A CC wrestling title By BOB YOUNG Staff Writer Earlier in the week, UNC wrestling coach Bill Lam said that his team would have to place five or six people in the finals, with at least three winning individual championships, to win the ACC wrestling championships held this weekend in Clemson, S.C. As it was, the North Carolina squad had four individual champions and four others who placed in the top three to take their first conference title in four years. "I'm very proud of our guys right now, and I'm especially happy for our seniors," Lam said. "We just wrestled step-by-step and the performances were just super down the line." The meet was very close after Saturday's preliminary rounds, with UNC holding a narrow lead over Clemson, 5V2-493A. Virginia and N.C. State were not too far behind at that point, and most of the coaches conceeded that all four teams had a legitimate chance at the conference title. UNC had placed five individuals in the finals, as had Clemson, and Virginia and State had two each. The momentum the Tar Heels gained with three consolation final wins was obvious in the first two matches of the finals, as Chip McArdle and John Aumiller teamed to give UNC the con ference titles at 118 and 126, respectively. McArdle, a sophomore, lived up to his first-place seeding as he defeated Clemson's Kirk Hoffman, 6-1. On the other hand, Aumiller was not top-seeded, and had to avenge a loss earlier in the season to Tony Russo of Maryland to take his match, 3-2. Although he lost 6-3 to Virginia's Buddy Kerr in the finals, Tad Wilson's performance at 158 was one of the most important of the tournament, Lam said. "Tad had a great tournament," Lam said. "In the semifinals he beat the top-ranked wrestler from Maryland, who had beaten him earlier in the year." At the next weight, 167, senior Bill Gaffney won his first ACC championship by defeating a surprising Mark Litts from Clem son, 10-6. The win was an important one for Gaffney, who ' See WRESTLING on page 2 Artist 'installs' glittering art at m Achland gallery By NED IRVINE Staff Writer People who were interested or lucky enough to go by the Ackland Art Museum last week saw New York artist Tom Lanigan-Schmidt in the museum's Small Gallery putting together his latest "installation." The general idea of an installation is that an artist ar rives in a space with his or her intended materials and creates an environment that expresses a more direct in fluence on the viewer than paintings or other works plac ed in a gallery could achieve. In Lanigan's case (the artist prefers to go by only half of his name), the materials are rolls of laminated glitter, Mickey Mouse party plates and a mirrowed disco ball, to name but a few. Last Monday, Lanigan and some supervised UNC students began creating the artist's latest work, Childhood Memories, which will be on display through April 1. Marcia Acita of Chapel Hill and Jay Gibson of Rich mond, Va., who are earning master's degrees in art, were two of the students who helped all week. "The most interesting thing for me is the other people who come in students, interviewers, museum-goers who ask Tom questions," Acita said. "I basically know what he's doing because I'm a artist, but I don't often have contact with the public to see how they look at works of art." Gibson said, "The best thing for me has been the chance to spend time with Tom and listen to him. He's been in New York since (he was) 19 as an artist, and he's very intelligent and well-informed. He has a comprehen sive point of view it's not mainstream art. He uses his own senses to put together an understanding instead of using instruction manuals or 'how-to' books." Lanigan himself was quite busy, answering observers' questions, supervising and decorating.

Wednesday he had time to speak of his views on student participation in his work, on the museum environment, and on his background. "As an artist, I must have the confidence to trust my ideas and the humility to realize that it wasn't all myself," Lanigan said. "I have eyes and ears and I can see and hear things, but it takes the suggestion of so meone to affirm the idea. "Experience in a museum offers a more sacrosanct at mosphere. Art museums are not about people being bet ter that other people. Art should be something painless on the viewer's end.... "There are certain kinds of things that everyone does have in common. What they should be looking tor is what connects them to a kind of spiritual gist of humani ty." Lanigan recognized installations at an early age. "I was raised in installations," he said. "My mother does them at home. Our living room was an installation, especially at holidays. When the relatives visit it's like an opening. After a few weeks, you take it down." Lanigan installed his first work for public exhibition in his EastSide tenement in New York in 1966. He fixed See ARTISTS on page 3 By LYNN DAVIS Staff Writer Automated banking machines and other electronic money transfers "pro vide an electronic environment that is potentially fertile for criminal abuse," ac cording to a U.S. Justice Department report released last week. The report said that existing criminal laws in many states are not sufficient to deal with electronic financial transaction crime. But according to local bank officials, relatively few crimes are committed through automated teller machines in the Chapel Hill area. Under North Carolina's Financial Transaction Card Act, theft, forgery and fraud involving banking cards can be punished by a fine of up to $3,000 or three years, imprisonment or both. Federal laws also exist in the area of elec tronic banking crime. Charles Wartman, city executive for Wachovia Bank and Trust Co. in Chapel Hill said that fraud is one of the worst problems associated with machine bank ing. Fraud occurs when someone finds or steals another person's banking card and personal identification code and uses them to withdraw money from that per son's account, Wartman said. The cardholder can prevent this from happening by not carrying the code with the card, he said. Dorothy Bernholz, director of UNC Student Legal Services, said that under federal law, a cardholder usually is not liable for more than $50 of any losses as long as the loss of the card is reported to the 5 bank within two days, even if the code was with the card. One way banks cut their losses from fraud is through sophisticated security systems within the machines. "Machines will get more and more ad vanced as the technology advances," said Dale Poole, supervisor of Central Carolina Bank's All Hours banks in Chapel Hill. Some banks are already using machines with cameras that are activated when a customer inserts a card or steps on a switch, Poole said. Jim Singleton, media relations manager for First Union National Bank in Charlotte, said that First Union's security sytem had made its losses from crime a "negligible proportion of the en tire operation." Bernholz said another complaint she had heard from clients was that they in structed the machine to make a withdrawal but did not receive the money, even though the withdrawal was recorded. Wartman said that he knew of very few cases where that had happened. "If the machine didn't give out the money, we could find out," he said, because the amount of money in the machine would not match the amount of the transactions recorded. Another area for concern is crime by bank employees themselves, such as com puterized alterations of accounts, the, report said. Poole said inside crime was not a real problem locally, however, he said Carolina Central Bank has an internal See BANK on page 3
