Thursday, May 31, 1984 Page 3 Rude Boys lose in nationals By LORI NICKEL Tar Hed Staff Writer The UNC College Bowl team, The Rude Boys, lost last Tuesday in the quarter-finals of the National College Bowl Tournament. UNC's four players, Blair Haworth, Ron Black, Seth Katz, and Jeff Carries beat 48 other teams in the regional tournament last February which quali fied them to compete last week in the national tournament in Columbus, Ohio. The team was disappointed with the outcome of the tournament. "It was kind of depressing," Black said. "We watched people in the finals miss ques tions that we would've known. People came up to us and told us we were the . best team there." . "Many people thought UNC would win because we won the National Invi tational Tournament at Emory Univer sity in Atlanta last April," Black said. UNC won with a 14-1 record, finish ing first out of 23 teams. But the team did not get that far in the National College Bowl Tourna ment. The tournament is set up annually by College Bowl Incorporated. This com pany is responsible for writing the ques tions and organizing major competi tions. The Association of College Unions International is responsible for regional competitions between colleges. They arrange the intercollegiate tournaments in such games as darts, pool, backgam mon and College Bowl games, team member Katz said. In each game, four players from one school compete against four players from another school. ACUI officials have packets of questions they ask in each round. The questions can be about history, geography, math, trivia or current events, to name a few, Black said. The teams are asked a "toss-up" question and whoever hits their buzzer first gets a chance to answer it for 10 points. Only one person can answer this question, and if he gets the right an swer, his team gets a bonus question worth 20-30 points. The team can con fer on this question and has a few sec- Summer 'Tar Heel' Positions are still open for sports, office in the Student Union or call 962- arts & features, and news writers for the MA c c. . . , . . - . , , A jj. 0245.

Katz, who has been on UNC's team for three years, said "As a team there is little we don't know." "We are much stronger as a unit now as opposed to when I first started," he said. Both Katz and Black along with the team captain Blair Haworth were on the team in 1982 when they won the na tional championship. Katz said he has seen some changes in the team since then. "We've mel lowed a lot and we play together better; we play as a team," he said. "In 1982 we were five raw talents playing against each other. We were the only ones who could play against us which added to the quality of the game," he said. The UNC team is selected from in tramural teams which compete in the fall. The four best players plus one al ternate are selected by a union commit tee which is headed by the Union Col lege Bowl Coordinator, David Kushner. The team's major practice sessions consist of playing Trivial Pursuit and drinking beer, Katz said. How you live may save yourlife. SAC ready in April By ART WOODRUFF Tar Heel Staff Writer The 22,000-seat Student Activities Center will open in April 1985, about four months late, according to Neal Harrell, a vice president of the Educational Foundation. The delay has been caused by weather and changes in the arena's design, Harrell said. Originally there was to be some bleacher seating, but that has been changed. Also, the pool will have 10 lanes rather than eight, he said. The delays are not related to the allegations of structural defects made by a subcontractor late last year, he said. The Educational Foundation only lacks $3 million of the $33 million goal for the building fund, Harrell said, with seats still available for a $5,000 donation. With the new seating arrange ments there will be 21,254 seats in the coliseum. Of these, 8,300 will be assigned to students, 3,800 to em ployees, and 9,000 to the Founda tion, John Cherry, vice president of the Educational Foundation, said. At least 2,382 of the student seats will be in lower sections, he said. This is up from an original alloca tion of 1,655. Students may get more lower level seats if section I is not needed to meet commitments to donors, Cherry said. The coliseum is being built en tirely with private donations. For $25,000 donors get the right to buy basketball tickets for the rest of their lives, Harrell said. Committing seats to building fund donors has caused some people to wonder if future alumni will be able to get tickets. Harrell said that although this might possibly be a problem, "We feel like we'll have some turnover (of ticket purchasing rights), but it remains to be seen how much." It has been suggested that the col iseum be named for head basketball coach Dean Smith, although no name is currently under considera tion. In its fund-raising literature the foundation has said that if an indi vidual makes a sizable donation the coliseum might be named after that person. "Sizable" is negotiable, Harrell said. So far the largest donation has been a $1 million anonymous gift. mm ilLMMI CH ' I . I HI H..U.
