UNC's Curtis Hunter shoots over Clemson's Chris Michaels
Tar Heels dominate,
Mow out Clevnsom
By FRANK KENNEDY
Staff Writer
The shot was from the baseline, about
10 feet from the basket. Just the way
Buzz Peterson likes them. It fell
delicately through the net and gave
North Carolina 84 points for the game
Saturday afternoon in Carmichael
Auditorium.
The shot itself had nothing what
soever to do with the outcome
something that the Tar Heels had
decided hy intermission and many
of the insane home crowd of 10,000
probably didn't notice who actually
sank it.
The shot was the last one ever by
a North Carolina player in Carmichael,
-and the last one Peterson would put
up before a UNC home crowd.
Even the fact that Clemson's Tigers
scored the final five points of the game
in Carmichael's sayonara proved insig
nificant to the greater picture: namely,
UNC's 84-50 victory that moved the Tar
Heels to the front of the ACC standings
with two games remaining.
The Tar, Heels, now at 21-6 overall
and tied with N.C. State at 8-4 for the
league lead, were at their dominating
best Saturday, grabbing 53 rebounds
from a Clemson team that was lame
from the field, as six UNC players
scored in double figures including
Peterson, who scored 10.
"It's so hard to comment about this,"
Peterson said. "I was thinking (Friday)
night that this is the way I'd like to go
cut, but I didn't think it would happen.
Everybody seemed to have fun. Eve
rybody was relaxed, giving the ball to
each other."
The most generous Tar Heel was
guard Steve Hale, who officially dished
out 13 assists, which ties his personal
best and is one shy of the UNC record.
"Steve had a remarkable game," coach
Dean Smith said. "We had him for 19
assists the way we keep them. I know
of four instances when he threw the ball
in and they fouled the guy going for
the layup."
Both teams came at each other in
man-to-man defenses, and neither could
hit from the field early on. For Clemson,
however, the thuds on the backboard
never ceased, as the Tigers shot only
31.5 percent for the game". The Tigers
had few second shots, as most of their
perimeter jumpers were pulled down by
the much-taller front line of Brad
Daugherty, Warren Martin and Joe
Wolf.
Daugherty got his hands on a career
high 16 boards and added 18 points,
while Martin had 15 points and he and
Wolf each came away with eight
rebounds.
"We forced them out, and they took
a lot of long shots and we were able
to get the rebounds," Daugherty said.
"We really started taking our time and
being patient, and that's something we
worked hard on all week in practice."
Clemson had slowed down its offen
sive attack in recent games, preferring
to pass the ball around more and look
for the open jumper. Saturday, those
jumpers came, but they were not put
up with patience especially by Chris

At last it was over and done with,
the 20-year saga ending in a way more
perfect than Dean Smith possibly could
have imagined.
Sentimentality and emotional oozing
were acceptable, even expected, but it
was time to look ahead to the new
arena, to the rest of this season, most
importantly to Wednesday night in
Atlanta.
After North Carolina had thoroughly
demolished the Clemson Tigers on
Saturday, after the men in light blue
wind breakers had stepped from their
ladders carrying the rims from Carmi
chael Auditorium, and after Smith had
returned to the court to wave briefly
to the fans chanting for him, the only
man ever to coach a UNC basketball
team in this building spoke his mind.
"It was a fun way to go out," he said,
"but our thoughts have to be directed
to the next game. Right now. we have
to think about Georgia Tech."
The typically understated remark was
akin to the things he had said in previous
days concerning the last game in
Carmichael. All week long he had
downplayed the significance of the
event, while the fans and media did just
the opposite. He had emphasized the
danger of blowing things so out of
proportion that his players would lose
sight of the game itself and what they
would have to do to win. And with an
84-50 victory, it was clear his strategy
had worked. Even better than Smith
had hoped it would.
"It surprised me," he said. "I thought
we might win by four or five coming
from behind in the second half. I
thought there was too much pressure
on us playing the last game in Carmi
chael, but it was just one of those days."
Just one of those days when ever
ything happens to go right for the home
team. Just another game. Dean Smith
would have you believe. Time to move
on.
And that's what he did, as he began
to make his way through the crowd of
reporters, appearing calm and collected
as ever. But before he could, he was
stopped, and someone asked him if on
this day there were any special feelings
about- the structure-he- watched them
build from the ground up, about the
. place where he had built a college
basketball power in the same way.
He thought for a split second and
gave the expected response: "I tried not
to let myself think about it."
Then he realized it was his true
feelings everyone wanted to hear, and
very briefly he opened up, just enough
so that those looking directly into his

eyes understood that this afternoon was
indeed unique.
"It was touching," he said quietly. "It
really was. . .now don't make me cry."
He said it only half-jokingly.
And then he tempered the solemnness
of the moment with an appropriately
timed bit of wryness.
"We might be back in here next year
for UCLA (the scheduled home
opener)," he said, "if they don't hurry
up and get to work on the new place."
An amusing thought, but highly
unlikely. By then, Carmichael Audito
rium and North Carolina basketball will
be two distinct entities, held together
only by memories. - ; -
In 20 seasons, the Tar Heels won 164
games in Carmichael and lost 20, a
winning percentage of .89 1 . Twelve of
the 20 teams have won ACC regular
season championships, nine have won
ACC tournament titles, and one has
placed an NCAA championship trophy
in the Carmichael showcase. In six of
the 20 seasons, the team has been
unbeaten at home. Sellout crowds

watched the last 132 games there.
The hardest ticket in the 20 years may
have been the one for Saturday's finale.
For those lucky enough to have been
there, the occasion went precisely
according to plan. It could have been
that the game itself would overshadow,
or even ruin, the larger spectacle, the
closing of the arena. It was a crucial
ACC contest, and a close game would
have put the sentimental thoughts and
memories in the backs of the fans'
minds. A loss, almost an implausible
concept, would have wrecked every
thing. None of those things came close to
happening.' -The gamVwas over by
halftirhe, with the score 40-19, and from
there it got worse, or from the crowd's
perspective, better. 46-19. 63-29. 80-41.
Before, during and after, the fans
reveled in the idea that this was the end
of an era and that they were a part of
it.
"I couldn't believe how loud it was,"
said senior Buzz Peterson, who made
the team's last basket in Carmichael.
They were the loudest crowd I've ever
heard since I've been playing college
basketball. I expected it to be pretty
wild, but I didn't think it would be that
loud."
As the lead grew, so did the noise
level. The loudness was uncharacteristic
of Carmichael, as was the fans' behav
ior. They relished every Clemson
miscue, and they had many opportun
ities to show it. Chris Michael, who was
6 for 23 from the field, was continually
greeted with verbal harangues of
"Airball" for his shooting ineptitude.
Glenn Corbit was met with mass
handclapping when he stepped to the
free-throw line.
The fans in Carmichael Auditorium
have at times been called quiet and at
other times, polite, but on Saturday they
were neither.
"I thought the crowd was a little quiet,
myself," joked Smith, alluding to his
comment three days earlier that UNC
had the least lively fans in the ACC.

Pemlee charged im Merger election case
By RUTHIE PIPKIN
Staff Writer
Bill Peaslee, a Campus Governing Council member
representing Granville, Old West and Old East, has
been charged with an Honor Court offense.
Unsuccessful student body president candidate
Doug Berger accused Peaslee of misrepresenting
himself as a staff member on Berger's campaign.
' When asked about the charge, Peaslee said, "I really
don't have anything to say. since it's still in litigation."
Peaslee sits on the CGC Finance Committee.
Although Berger accused Peaslee and sophomore
Rickey Peed, a resident of Grimes dormitory, of
distributing campaign material labeling him as a
socialist, Berger said the case did not center around
the distribution. "The case is really a misrepresentation
case, not a negative campaigning case," Berger said
Sunday. "The issue is that I accused Peaslee of
misrepresentation."
Peed said Sunday that he had not distributed
material with Peaslee and that no charges would be
made against him.
"Someone thought the person with Peaslee was me,"
Peed said. "I was not there. I did not hand out anything
with him. I was just misidentified. I was not the person
with Peaslee."
Peed said Student Attorney General Keith Johnson
told him last Tuesday that no charges would be
brought against him and confirmed his decision
Friday. Johnson had also promised to inform Berger
of his decision Friday.
Berger said he probably could not support a case
only on charges of distributing derogatory material.
"Negative campaigning is probably protected in free
speech." he said. "Fraud is not protected in tree
speech."
Jimmy Greene, another CGC member represent
ating Granville, Old West and Old East, said he felt
Berger was using Peaslee as a scapegoat. "I feel for
Doug in a way because of all the negative advertising
in his campaign, but I also think there's not so much
just cause to blame Peaslee," Greene said. "There was
so much negative advertising against Doug, and Bill
(Peaslee) was the one he caught. I think he's trying
to blame the loss of the election on Bill.
"I don't want to say anything before the Honor
Court decision but I think Doug is trying to use Bill
as a scapegoat or as sour grapes," Greene said.
If Peaslee is found guilty, he will lose his CCiC
seat and could face expulsion or suspension. Johnson
said most Honor Court cases take 10 davs.
Education, visibility are top priorities for Wallace
By HEATHER HAY
Staff Writer
Increasing and maintaining the
visibility of Student Government . and
educating students are the two main
goals of Student Government in the
upcoming year, said newly elected
Student Body President Patricia
Wallace.
"My number one goal is education,"
Wallace said, adding that as the
University has grown and expanded.
relationships between students and the
academic environment have become
more complicated, necessitating a more
active Student Government role.
"The demographics of the University
have changed," Wallace said. "Just
within the past 10 years, the University
has doubled in size, and more students
live off-campus than on. As Student
Government looks for direction, we
have to ask ourselves if we're meeting
these changing demographic needs."
To increase students' awareness
about their role within the academic
community, Wallace said her adminis
tration would promote and strengthen
the Student Advising Service which
former Student Body President Paul
Parker established last year. In addi
tion, Student Government will sponsor
workshops and seminars about study
habits, the University curriculum and
the Honor Code, she said.
"I'd like to have Student Government
sponsor some prominent educators'
lectures about leadership," Wallace
said. "Right now, we're putting together
a workshop involving administration,
faculty and student leaders to examine
the various roles each plays in the
University."
These events should help increase
student awareness and interaction with
Student Government. Wallace said.

Point Counterpoint: Yippie and. Yuppie to debate
By GRANT PARSONS
Staff Writer
The show is about to begin.
Sixties activist Abbie Hoffman and activist-turned-yuppie
Jerry Rubin will square off in the
"Yippie vs. Yuppie Debates" at 8 p.m. in
Memorial Hall.
Hoffman, a clinical psychologist who is often
called "America's leading dissident," started his
activist career by protesting for the civil rights
movement and conducting voter registration
drives in the Deep South. He formed the Youth
International Party (yippies) with Rubin and
started his police record, which eventually
swelled to 42 arrests and literally thousands of
pages in his FBI file.
In 1973, facing charges for possession of
cocaine, Hoffman went underground. In time
he moved to upstate New York and, under the
alias Barry Freed, fought a three-year battle with
the army corps of engineers to prevent the
dredging of the St. Lawrence Seaway.
Hoffman resurfaced in 1 980 and served a one
year sentence for cocaine possession. He now
continues his activist struggles against modern
adversaries such as the situation in Nicaragua,
which he compares to pre-war Vietnam.
Jerry' Rubin, a political science graduate from
the University of California at Berkeley, ran for
mayor of Berkeley in 1967 on a strong anti
war platform and finished second in a field of
four. After co-founding the yippies, he and
Hoffman were arrested in 1968 for crossing state
lines with intent to incite a riot. He started one
of the first teach-ins and helped sponsor Vietnam
Day.
After being kicked out of the yippie movement
for being older than 30, Rubin began a search
for himself that included yoga, EST and
transcendental meditation. When the late 70s
arrived, so did Rubin.
He started the principle of "networking" at
Studio 54, where large groups of young urban
professionals (yuppies) met, drank and
exchanged business cards to establish a network
of informational sources.
Rubin is now a yuppie, one of countless
young, busy, computer-bright college graduates
with bright ideas and bright futures, and he is
proud of it. When reached for . a telephone
interview, he said: "Call me back tomorrow. If
I'm not here, I'm either out jogging or making
money."
When called back the following day. he had
already set up his answering machine in his hotel
room, and callers were greeted with: "Hello.
Don't hang up. We leave the machine on even
when we're in the room."
As members of the Chicago Seven. Hoffman
and Rubin were united under the banner of social
protest. Now their views are as radically different
as they were once radically the same.
Hoffman charged that students today neglect
their responsibility to protest against organiza
tions and principles they consider wrong.
"In the '60s, when we jumped, the world
jumped back." Hoffman said in a phone
interview last week. "Students today are
apathetic. They don't care about some of the
most important issues facing the world today."
Hoffman" said Nicaragua resembled pre-war
Vietnam, but students didn't care because they
were too busy accepting everything that was told
to them.
"Education is the process of subverting
authority," he said, "and students today just
don't do that."
Rubin said he believed a student's responsi
bility was to get a good job and make money.
"Yuppies are the most powerful force for
social change today." Rubin said from his
California hotel room. "I want to inspire yuppies
to be successful and change the world.
"It's the hottest debate on college campuses
today because it addresses the primary concerns
(of today's students)."
What do these once good friends think of each
other now?
"Jerry exemplifies the yuppie," Hoffman said.
"(He has) a self-centered outlook on life that
is an excuse for greed. He paid his dues in the
'60s, but he has sold out to the Establishment."
Rubin countered: "(Hoffman) is living in the
past. He is playing in the sandbox of social
protest."
Both Hoffman and Rubin agree that even
though they have debated many times before,
the debate is always new.
"It gets better and better," Hoffman said. "It's
always being revised, and the arguments get
better."
"Since we were so close in the'60s," Rubin
said, "it's almost like a divorce. It's got all the
anger, fury and passion of a divorce. Come out
and watch me demolish Abbie Hoffman and
the politics of rebellion."
The yippie-yuppie debates are touring college
campuses nationwide. Tonight's .is sponsored by
the Carolina Union Forum Committee. Admis
sion is free.
