Robbery occurs near Bruegger's By MICHAEL SAUL

Two Durham residents were robbed at gunpoint in the park­ing lot of Bruegger's Bagel Bak­ery on Ninth Street Wednesday night.

Laura Southard and Owen Synan left the store at 8 p.m. and were walking toward their car when two men robbed them.

One ofthe men was carrying a rifle wrapped in a jacket, said Investigator B. L. Apple of Durham Police.

"Give me all your money, jew­elry and wallets or I will blow your fucking head off," said one of the men, according to Synan.

Synan surrendered his watch, his ring, a rope chain and $12 in cash. The jewelry was valued at about $500.

Southard handed over her wal­let, which contained credit cards and $2 in cash.

The men told the victims to get See ROBBERY on page 6 •

Council to recommend 5,925 as enrollment cap By MATT STEFFORA

The Academic Council will rec­ommend to the Board of Trustees an undergraduate enrollment limit of 5,925 for the 1992-93 aca­demic year, but it will not use the report on enrollment to do so.

"We're not using the report . . . but asking for more time," said Provost Thomas Langford.

The 90-page Report for Re­source Utilization and Enrollment at Duke University, released at the council's Nov. 7 meeting, was prepared by the provost's office at the request ofthe Board of Trust­ees.

The report examines the University's enrollment capacity for undergraduate and graduate students, but does not contain speculations or suggestions on what the optimum student body size should be.

When the trustees meet in De­cember, they will approve a pre­liminary budget for the 1992-93 academic year based on a speci­fied enrollment level.

The council accepted a proposal by Larry Evans, physics depart­ment chair, which states that the council take no action ofi the re­port and that the Board of Trust­ees not use the report when es­tablishing student enrollment lev­els for the 1992-93 year at its Dec. 6 meeting. The council's execu­tive committee will explore means of studying long-term enrollment policy.

The dbuncil should suggest to the board that the undergradu­ate enrollment level remain at 5,925 for 1991-92, but without basing its suggestion on the re­port, Langford said.

Current undergraduate enroll­ment is more than 6,000 students, but administrators have used the 5,925 figure as a hypothetical tar­get.

Several trustees have seen a draft of the report for more than two months, while Academic Council members received it within the last two weeks and

Professor discusses details of Holocaust, refutes ad's claims By STEPHEN HIEL

A University faculty member discussed differing historical de­tails on the Holocaust while refut­ing the recent advertisement in The Chronicle denying the Holocaust's existence.

Claudia Koonz, an associate professor of history who special­izes in Nazi Germany, led the ses­sion for an audience of about 40 people in the Gray Building on Thursday. She concentrated on the contents of the Nov. 5 ad, pub­lished by Bradley Smith's Com­mittee for Open Debate on the Holocaust, rather than on The Chronicle's decision to print it.

"Smith uses legitimate dis­

agreements of scholars to deny the Holocaust," Koonz said.

"Where does revisionism end and lying begin?" Koonz asked. She examined the entire ad, chal­lenging every viewpoint stated in it.

The call to challenge orthodox thinking is very inviting because people like to think of themselves as open-minded, especially at a university, she said. "The appeal ofthe ad is obvious."

"My first advice is to use com­mon sense" in questioning the le­gitimacy of the ad, Koonz said. "Have major newspapers accepted this ad? Why is Bradley R. Smith interested only in the Jews?"

Koonz brought her extensive his­torical knowledge to bear when evaluating specific claims by Smith.

Responding to the adver­tisement's claim that no official policy to exterminate the Jews or any other peoples existed, Koonz presented what most scholars con­sider to be the most telling surviv­ing document: an order from Reinhard Heydrich, an officer in Hitler's SS, dated July 31,1941.

The order mentions "the final solution" and talks of conscript­ing Jews to labor in the East. "Undoubtedly a large number will drop out through natural elimi­nation" while any remainders "will be treated accordingly," the order

says. The communication ends by explaining that these survivors, presumably the strongest, would otherwise begin "a new Jewish reconstruction (history teaches us that)."

Phrases such as "natural elimi­nation" and "treated accordingly" are examples of euphemisms the Nazis used for killing, Koonz said. Never were the words "killing" or "extermination" used, as the Na­zis tried to make the Holocaust deniable.

While Koonz agreed with the advertisement's claim that the num­ber of Jews killed in the Holocaust was not as high as the commonly quoted 6 million, she said she still

believes about 5 million Jews died. But questioning details should

not be twisted into denying the existence ofthe entire Holocaust, as Smith does, she said.

Adolf Hitler often blamed Jews and Socialists for exactly the crimes the Nazis themselves com­mitted; when people like Smith use words like "fraud" and "hoax," perhaps his readers are getting an indication of their own tactics, Koonz said.

Koonz says she hopes to have a continuing series of such lecture/ discussions and is available to speak ofthe historical proof of the Holocaust for any organization or living group.

Blood Mobile arrives at University Students see it as an 'opportunity to save lives'

Law student Amy Gillespie signing up to give blood.

By COLIN BROWN If any guilt-ridden person be­

lieves he has too much blood on his hands, he can walk down to the Bryan Center to lighten his load.

The Red Cross Blood Mobile has arrived at the University to collect the vital fluids of students, professors or anyone with an hour and a pint of blood to spare.

The Red Cross needs 1,500 pints a day to serve the 90-county re­gion of which Durham is a part, said Gretchen Durham, an em­ployee at the Durham Blood Do­

nor Center. However, the Blood Mobiles in the region are only able to collect 900-1200 pints a day. "[This daily shortage] means a chronic shortage of all blood," she said.

The shortage of blood has seri­ous implications for people with needs varying from the predict­able daily blood needs of cancer patients to the unpredictable in­stances when blood is necessary for a transplant operation, Durham said. Durham related a case concerning a boy who needed a liver transplant. A perfect liver

match was available, but a short­age of the boy's blood type made the operation impossible. "We can not allow that type of thing to happen," she said.

Community need is not lost on donors. Shannon Coyle, a Trinity sophomore, experienced firsthand the importance of having blood available. "My mom was in an ac­cident and she required 25 pints of blood. That had a definite impact on me," she said. Yes, the needle pricks, but "I save somebody's life and in turn, get two seconds of

New U.N. secretary general to be confirmed By PAUL LEWIS N.Y. Times

UNITED NATIONS — Boutros Ghali, Egypt's 69-year old deputy prime minis­ter, was unanimously recommended to become the next United Nations secretary general by the 15 members ofthe Security Council on Thursdaynight and appeared set to win final approval from the 166-nation General Assembly.

Ghali would become the first Arab and the first person from Africa to hold the top post at the United Nations. He would re­place Javier Perez de Cuellar of Peru, who has said he wants to step down at the end of this year after serving two five-year terms in the post.

The council closed ranks to give Ghali its unanimous endorsement on Thursday night after 11 members had cast their ballots in his favor on an earlier vote and none ofthe five members with permanent seats—the United States, Britain, France, the Soviet Union and China — used a veto. Four members abstained.

Ghali's two closest rivals, Zimbabwe's finance minister, Bernard Chidzero, and Olusegun Obasanjo, a former Nigerian head of state, each got seven votes in this first official council ballot, or two less than the nine needed to force a runoff against Ghali.

The resolution recommending Ghali for the $185,000-a-year post read:

"The Security Council, having consid­ered the question of the recommendation for the appointment ofthe secretary gen­eral ofthe United Nations, recommends to the General Assembly that Boutros Boutros Ghali be appointed secretary general of

the United Nations for a term of office from 1 January 1992 to 31 December 1996."

No General Assembly vote was immedi­ately scheduled, but diplomats said ap­proval is a foregone conclusion in view of the Security Council's unanimous endorse­ment and the fact that he was one of six official African candidates nominated for the post by the Organization of African Unity and endorsed by the 106-member Non-Aligned Movement.

African countries had mounted a suc­cessful campaign to choose one of their own as the next secretary general. But during the political maneuvering that led

up to Thursday night's vote, several black African diplomats made clear that they preferred a black African over Ghali.

"I'm very glad we have a new secretary general and that no negative votes were cast against him," France's United Na­t ions r e p r e s e n t a t i v e , J e a n - B e r n a r d Merimee, said as members left the closed-door meeting.

Bri tain 's representat ive, Sir David Hannay, described the choice as "excel­lent" though he declined to say whether Britain voted for him on the first secret ballot.

Bush signs new civil rights bill, causes in-house trouble By ANDREW ROSENTHAL N.Y. Times News Service

WASHINGTON — President Bush on Thursday signed the 1991 Civil Rights Act, hoping to end a bruising two-year fight over job discrimination, but instead found himself embroiled in a political fu­ror over his legal counsel's continuing ef­fort to put a conservative interpretation on the new law.

Facing protests from civil rights lead­ers, lawmakers from both parties and members of his Cabinet, Bush on Thurs­day morning moved to end the uproar caused when the counsel, Boyden Gray, circulated a draft policy statement Wednes­day night that would have ended the use of racial preferences and quotas in federal government hiring.

Moving quickly Thursday morning, Bush had his press secretary, Marlin Fitzwater, say that Gray had acted without his knowl­edge, and the White House called civil rights leaders who had been invited to the signing ceremony to assure them that the affirmative action regulations dating from 1965 were not being wiped out.

Still, some of his critics raised doubts about whether Bush really intended to abandon Gray's effort. And late in the day, controversy erupted again over another aspect of the formal signing statement that was made public after Bush signed the bill at a ceremony in the Rose Garden.

Republican and Democratic lawmakers alike criticized a passage in the statement in which Bush endorsed a hotly debated

High school dropout rates decline in Durham city, county By JESSICA COHEN

The dropout rates for both the Durham city and Durham county schools dropped significantly during the 1990-91 school year, placing the systems below the most recent state average.

Officials attribute the improvement to increased targeting of at-risk students through a variety of school and community efforts.

Durham City recorded a two percent dropout rate last year in grades kindergar­ten through 12. This is a significant de­crease from 1989-1990, when the city had a 12 percent dropout rate and 1988-1989 when the rate was 13 percent.

The 1990-1991 statistics show that Durham County had a dropout rate of 5.85 percent for grades 9-12, said Cindy Gardiner, director of communications for the county.

During the 1988-1989 school year, the dropout rate for grades 9-12 was 7.57 per­cent. The following school year, 1989-1990, the rate decreased to 5.94 percent.

The 1990-1991 county and city schools rates are both below the 1989-1990 state dropout rate of 6.36 percent for grades 9-

12, the latest statistics available from the state.

The three most common reasons for drop­ping out are attendance problems, an un­stable home environment and jobs becom­ing more important than school, said Eliza­beth Wright, director of student services for Durham County.

Wright attributes the decreasing drop­out rate to increased emphasis on keeping students in school through a climate of awareness and understanding. A Student Services Management Team handles re­ferrals of at-risk students and works to meet the needs of the child, she said. The county is specifically targeting minorities, particularly black males.

Other services implemented in the county schools include counseling, mentoring programs, after-school tutor­ing and alternative evening classes, a co­op program for pregnant teenagers and early intervention programs. The schools also involve the community through in­centive programs sponsored by local res­taurants.

The city has implemented similar pro­grams concerned with targeting potential

dropouts, providing students with men­tors and using University students to help tutor high school students.

Dr. William Malloy, superintendent of the Durham City Schools, encourages in­dividual drop-out prevention counselors and principals to initiate creative drop-out

prevention programs. Malloy suggested that teacher assistants

should be turned into truant officers who will go to the homes of students who are absent to check on their excuses. He would also like to see an alliance with the police

Panelists discuss legal alternatives for rape, assault victims By MIKE FINLON

The legal system needs to be more sen­sitive towards rape victims, said lawyers, a victim and others involved in the pro­cess.

The group, speaking at Thursday's panel discussion on "The Aftermath of Rape: Legal Alternatives," explored the legal system's treatment of rape.

The panel said that too often the rape victim simply becomes a victim ofthe courts as well. "It's a procedure that's probably not the kindest procedure to victims," said panel member Gail Weiss, an assistant district attorney for Durham County.

"[Rape victims] want the maximum sen­tence that can be had and they want that without having to testify," Weiss said.

Weiss related a step-by-step account of the legal process following a rape. She told of the painful and often personal testi­mony and evidence, such as semen and hair tests the hospital takes from victims

after the incident, that most courts require of rape victims.

Legislation such as theRape Shield Stat­ute is intended to make the victim feel more at ease, she said, but added this provides only minimal com­fort. The statute forbids a defense attorney to ask questions that do not gen­erally pertain to the rape, for example, questions about a victim's back­ground.

In addition, a judge may choose to clear the court­room of spectators, but of­ten is unwilling to do so. "The judges feel like it's a public courtroom and that's the way they're going to keep it," Weiss said.

Some victims may also look at the civil court op­tion, said Don Beskind, a

civil lawyer and senior lecturer in the law school.

"The first choice a woman has in the system . . . is the decision to bring a civil suit," Beskind said.

He explained that victims often find more success in civil rather than criminal courts. A person's freedom is not at stake in civil suits, he said.

"What's at stake in the civil case is the compensation ofthe victim. The argument is it's only money, it's only money."

Rape victim Nancy Ziegenmeyer dis­cussed a rape case from the victim's view. She said her attorney did not explain the legal process to her. Ziegenmeyer's ac­count of her ordeal and the ensuing legal proceedings earned the Des Moines Regis­ter a 1991 Pulitzer Prize after it appeared.

Ziegenmeyer said she began to see her role as simply another witness for the prosecution, rather than a victim being defended in court. "I realized that I had no attorney [of my own] . . . I had made that step from victim to witness."

Russian folk group gives powerful show By MEREDITH ROLFE

On Tuesday night, a large crowd in Page Auditorium experienced the power of the Pokrovsky Dance Ensemble of Russia. Instead of simple entertainment, the En­semble brought their audience expression of the contradictory elements of human life: anguish and love, insecurity and self-assurance.

The Pokrovsky Ensemble was founded 18 years ago by Dmitri Pokrovsky, who wanted to build a "living library" of Rus­sian folk culture. The Moscow-based En­semble is made up of five men and five women who travel through the Russian countryside, collecting folk music, dance and costume to share with their audi­ences. Until the recent political develop­ments in the Soviet Union, the Ensemble's work was an "underground" phenomenon, said one member ofthe group.

The ensemble began receiving much enthusiastic publicity in the West with their first U.S. performance in 1988.

Their numerous glowing reviews seemed rather contrived until the colorful group came on stage Tuesday night and began to sing. Their a capella singing seemed at first nasal and dissonant. Each voice by itself would have been off key, but together they mingled to create a remarkably dense and beautiful sound.

The unique style was strange to Ameri­can ears for several reasons. First, it re­sembled chanting more than singing. The women produced odd and expressive

, sounds which rose challengingly against the steady chant. Also, the Russian lan­guage itself contains many variations of vowel sounds which are alien to American listeners.

The first part of the Ensemble's performance was entitled "Mother Rus­sia," because "through songs [the Russian people] have kept their faith in their Mother Russia" according to the program notes. Songs such as "Mother Russia" and "Nettles" bespoke the difficulties of the Russian nation. The Ensemble faced the challenges of their homeland bravely, how­ever, facing the audience assertively and demanding attention for their tales of troubles.

With the second segment of the performance, the Ensemble moved from la­ments to a lighter note. This part, entitled "The Russian Village Wedding Ritual,"

SPECIAL TO THE CHRONICLE

The Pokrovsky Ensemble

began with a man playing an instrument much like a Jew's harp to ward off evil spirits before the wedding. The musician's mastery ofthe instrument was amazing— his performance sounded like modern syn­thesized dance music although it was played on an ancient folk instrument.

The next section ofthe program brought to life ritual songs and dances from the Wild Plains region of Russia. The compli­cated dances seemed simple when per­formed by the skillful dancers—they com­bined steady, stamping rhythms with beau­tifully flowing motions, twining their arms around each other. One piece, "Kastrama," was danced in a circle around the goddess Kastrama, evoking the circular nature of

life as the goddess lives, dies and rises to dance again.

The Ensemble's sense of togetherness and group identity was pronounced throughout the show, giving life and valid­ity to the songs. This explains the puzzle­ment of one group member when she was asked if the constant touring ever became tiresome. She explained that she and the other group members would not perform if they did not truly love the experience.

This sense of community overflowed into the audience throughout the show. As the dancers came clapping and dancing through the aisles of Page, much of the audience joined in the festivities.

Exhibit overflows with water metaphors By TED MITCHNER

In "Drawn to Water," an exhibit cur­rently on display in the Bivins Building, the black and white photographs of Diana Parrish and Max Wallace reveal several different sides to water.

The exhibit is overflowing with com­ments on mankind's relationship to water, as well as the nature of water itself. The artists examine water in their own indi­vidual styles.

Diana Parrish captures her scenes on grainy film that presents high contrast between the black water and lighter sub­jects. In "Duck Print," the dark water be­comes a backdrop for a procession of ducks making a theatrical entrance in the lower right. The ducks' determined dignity is contrasted by sparkling blades of wild grass bleached by light.

Another work, "Buoy, Abaco Sound," exploits Parrish's light-dark contrast with a touch of humor. Instead of a cliched sun setting on the ocean horizon, the photo­graph shows a glowing white buoy floating in the black water, as if the sun had set directly on the surface ofthe water.

Two works of Parrish's works that re­verse this dichotomy show clear water contrasted with black starfish. In "Stardrifter," only the head of a swimmer with eyes closed is shown floating in chlo­rinated pool water. Near his head are two starfish, which indicate his relaxed, dreamy thoughts. He also wears a smile. "Seeing Stars" captures a similar scene, with a man crouching near five starfish. Ironi­cally, Parrish does not use grainy film for these two works, despite the obvious dream-like thoughts of their protagonists. Perhaps she intended to further separate these from the rest ofthe group.

Two works with similar subjects, hung together, provide a smooth transition be­

tween the two artists' offer­ings. Parrish's contribution, "After the River," shows a close-up of a hand resting on a bare shoulder. What appears to be a flat black background is actually a black inner tube with a barely visible rubber tex­ture. Directly below this piece is "Tubular Grouping" by Max Wallace, which ar­ranges three black inner tubes on their sides to re­veal the interesting pat­terns ofthe rubber.

This piece is typical of Wallace's fascination with detail, which was absent in the grainy works of Parrish. He views water as both a Diana Parrish creator and destroyer, similar to man. Like Parrish, though, he exploits the contrast between black and white to balance his photographs.

Several of his pieces pit the gritty tex­ture of static rocks alongside swirling cloudy water. These photos were shot with an extended exposure, blurring the mov­ing water. The rocks either acquiesce to the forever moving water, or, as in "Reen­try," push forward into the motion, at­tempting to reclaim their territory.

A metal mask appears in "The Face of the Man in the River." It has washed up on the shore, as if the clear river were respon­sible for bringing man to life. This idea of creation is reversed in the similar-looking "Swimming for Shore" which places a dis­tant swimmer in almost the exactly posi­tion as the mask. The swimmer is sur­rounded completely by water, with no sign of reaching the shore. In this case, water acts as the destroyer, swallowing the life of

SPECIAL TO THE CHRONICLE

's "Stardrifter" those who enter it.

Man's relation to water is further ex­plored in another series of photos that depict man harnessing nature. "Welcome to Atlantic Beach" shows a water tower from a worm's eye view. Here the tower traps the usually free-flowing water in a man-made structure, emphasized by the detail ofthe metal. "Mainsail" employs the same low angle to portray a sail at full mast. Man has harnessed the wind to master the ocean.

As a whole, the twenty nine photographs work together well due to their common themes and medium. The artists' interest in water seems to go beyond a passing fancy to a genuine, personal fascination in presenting water in several different lights. As the title suggests, both are drawn to water.

The exhibit will be on view in the Gallery ofthe Institute ofthe Arts in Bivins Build­ing on East Campus through Jan. 8.

Academic Council recommends 5,925 as enrollment cap • COUNCIL from page 1 many other faculty members have not yet seen it. The council needs more time to review the report and present any propos­als based on it to the board, Evans said.

"There are irresistible tendencies for the administration and trustees to talk only to each other, and then go to the faculty and say, 'What do you think?' "

Evans said after the meeting. Several faculty members at the meeting

said other faculty should be able to review the report and suggest enrollment targets from an academic point of view.

"Enrollments do not run academic policy, academic policy runs enrollments," Langford said. "We've got to argue the enrollment issue in terms of the more fundamental academic issues"

Enrollment levels should not be deter­mined solely by the Academic Council, he said.

"The appropriate body to look at Arts and Sciences enrollment is the Arts and Sciences Council, not the Academic Coun­cil, and the appropriate body to look at Engineering enrollment is the Engineer­ing Faculty Council."

The Academic Priorities Committee has

been examining the report to see what things should determine the enrollment level, said Leonard Spicer, committee chair. "Enrollment at Duke University should be driven consistent with academic objec­tives," he said.

The committee has already recom­mended the undergraduate enrollment level stay at 5,925 through at least the 1993-94 academic year.

Synan said he is a frequent patron of Bruegger's and never thought crime was a serious problem in Durham until this inci­dent.

Ninth Street is not usually perceived as a dangerous area, he said.

Last summer, Bruegger's installed ad­

ditional lighting behind the building in an effort to increase safety, but no safety measures were taken since then, said Brian Scott, general manager of Bruegger's.

"If we can do more, we'll certainly con­sider it," Scott said.

Anyone with information about the rob­bery is asked to call Apple at 560-4440 or Crimestoppers at 688-3906.

Red Cross blood drive attracts students • DONORS from page 1 pain."

Most University students do not recognize the pressing need. "Duke [students] used to do really well, but they are not doing so well now," Durham said.

Currently, about five percent of University students donate blood, in line with the national average, Durham said. If six or seven percent ofthe population would donate, the blood supply would be fine, she said.

Durham attributes the lack of blood donors to lack of awareness ofthe blood mobile's presence, general apathy and lack of knowledge about the HIV virus. "One-fourth of the population thinks you can contract HIV from giving blood," she said. It is impossible to get the virus because a new needle is used for each donor.

Pat White, a Red Cross nurse, has heard of other reasons for the shortage of blood donors. "One person thought that only drunks and lowlifes gave blood," she said. Rather than lower himself to their level, he refrained from giving blood. Time considerations, general squeamishness and fear of the unknown also keep donors away, she said. "It's just a minor procedure," she reassured.

For many donors, the process of giving blood is not so clinical. Nausea, dizziness and faintness sometimes ac­company the needle prick, and donors are always afraid of fainting, although only one in 600 experience any substan­tial reaction, White said.

After the blood is collected, the rare blood types are frozen in metal containers while most ofthe blood is kept in its original plastic bag and hung in a refrigerator, Durham said. Refrigerated red cells can be used for the next 42 days, platelets last for five days and frozen blood can be kept on hand for a few years.

City, county dropout rates fall for 1990-91 school year • DROPOUT from page 3 department to encourage officers to notify schools about students who are loitering. However, Malloy has no concrete future plans or goals for the city schools, which are soon to be merged with the county schools.

The disparate dropout rates will have no effect on the merger, Malloy said.

"We'll have to have innovative programs [when the two systems merge], especially at the elementary and secondary level to break the cycle of drop-outs," said Needham

Bass, a city school board member. He also stressed involving parents to help make learning fun and interesting.

Some county officials are less confident about the merger's effects.

"There are so many variables," said Shirley Johnson, executive director for instructional support services in Durham County, "We would hope that it would not be adverse to either system."

Because different states evaluate drop­out rates differently, an accurate, national figure cannot currently be ascertained.

Legal proceedings for rape victims discussed at forum • PANEL from page 3 mitted to attend the trial.

Weiss said encouraging education about rape could improve the treatment and per­ception of rape victims.

"The jurors are coming in very uneducated about a lot of things," Weiss said. "I can't believe there are people who actually say, 'If it were my wife or my

daughter, they damn well better fight [off the rapist].'"

The discussion was held in Griffith Film Theater as a part of Rape Awareness Week. About a dozen people attended. Sue Wasiolek, dean for student life, also sat on the panel moderated by Rebecca Falco, coordinator of sexual assault support ser­vices.

ROSENCRANTZ & GUILDENSTERN ARE DEAD 7:00 & 9:30

Griffith Film Theater 1990,118 min. d. Tom Stoppard; with Gary Oldman, Tim Roth, Richard Dreyfuss

The remarkable and thrilling play Rosencrantz and Guidenstern Are Dead is now a movie. Directed by its author, Tom Stoppard, one of the world's most respected playwrights, the film is a dazzling metaphysical comedy of hilarious word games and marvelous verbal wit. The character Rosencrantz and Guildenstern were given light and life by Shakespeare as two of Hamlet's hapless friends who get caught up in the sinister machinations of the royal court of Denmark. Stoppard's version of Hamlet, using some 250 lines from Shakespeare to provide the framwork for the piece, is a worm's eye view of the tragedy seen from the bewildered standpoint of Rosencrantz and Guildenstern. Beautifully shot in Yugoslavia, with marvelous performances by Gary Oldman as Rosencrantz, Tim Roth as Guildenstern, and Richard Dreyfuss as The Player, this film is one which exposes audiences to the majesty of brilliant theater and the magic of superb filmmaking.

EDITORIALS PAGE 8 NOVEMBER 21, 1991

Painters should paint Imagine telling Keith Brodie he

could no longer be president; instead, he could monitor the Allen Building's paper flow while his salary would be frozen at its current rate.

Wow! Brodie would earn $315,000 for being chief paper shuffler, a job considerably easier than chief prob­lem solver.

Of course, no one would dare tell Brodie to drop his fountain pen and leave his office, but the administra­tion has told employees in the paint shop to drop their brushes and forsake their craft.

In an effort to be more cost efficient, the University is planning to phase out the paint shop, place the employ­ees in alternative positions and freeze their wages.

The administration examined 11 shops in the Facilities Planning and Management Department and discov­ered it would be more cost effective to contract external painters for campus work r a t h e r t h a n m a i n t a i n t h e University's paint shop.

Outside contractors are more cost efficient, the administration claims.

The average billing rate for a Uni­versity painter is $28 per hour and the average wage rate for a University painter is $12. Much ofthe difference goes to the higher paid managers and support staff in Facilities Planning and Management.

For every two craftsmen working in the field there is one manager-type person sitting behind a desk.

Sound fishy? The associate vice presi­dent for human resources could not explain it. The t ruth is the depart­ment shouldn't need supervisors, as­

sistant supervisors, regular staff and support staff.

Too many cooks spoil the broth. Before the University displaces the

workers, it needs to seriously evaluate the structure of Facilities Planning and Management.

The painters are rightfully irate be­cause the administration is pointing at their shop and shouting inefficiency without realizing that the infrastruc­ture is the root ofthe problem.

The lower paid craftsmen should not be sacrificed at the expense ofthe higher paid managers. Both laborers and managers are necessary in any business, but the proportion of labor­ers to managers in this department is both unfathomable and appalling.

The problem with the paint shop is a microcosm of the problems facing the entire department. The administra­tion has not allocated its resources efficiently, and is trying to correct the problem by displacing the people with the least power.

Employees in the paint shop have dedicated their lives to this Univer­sity. They were hired as painters and expected to remain as painters.

The University's treatment of the employees in the paint shop smacks of hypocrisy. In one breath, Allen Build­ing folk praise them for a job well done while in the next breath they shout inefficiency. Undoubtedly, it's hot air in both directions.

Contracting outside is expedient and foolish while tinkering inside is diffi­cult and wise. The paint shop is only one symptom ofthe greater problem.

Let the painters paint.

On the record There are irresistible tendencies for the administration and trustees to talk only to each other, and then go to the faculty and say, "What do you think?'

Larry Evans, professor of physics, on the recently released Report on Enrollment.

Editorial belittled efforts of other, less well-known battlers of AIDS and HIV To the editor:

I'd thought that previous media cover­age of AIDS and HIV infection had numbed my senses of anger and rage. I was wrong. I feel compelled to respond to your edito­rial of No v. 11 entitled "A Magical Person."

While the detection, or admittance, of HIV infection is never a cause for celebra­tion, this epidemic has taught us to look for whatever silver linings we can possibly find. With that in mind, I have some re­spect for (what I perceive was) the spirit of your commentary. I do hope that Magic Johnson's illness will help to convince people ofthe seriousness ofthe AIDS epi­demic and of their own and loved ones' risks. However, I cannot condone the ex­plicit callousness and implicit ignorance through which you made your arguments.

You state that "[Magic] is manly enough to become the spokesperson for the disease that is supposedly unmanly." For a de­cade, thousands of men and women in this country have fought on Capital Hill, in their churches and schools and everywhere else to stem the tide of HIV infection and care for the sufferers. They've risked their friends, their careers, their homes and, often, have spent the last few days of their lives trying to bring some semblance of reason to an issue that rarely sees its light. You deny their courage, their ultimate expression of (hu)manliness. Because a new sufferer is more tasteful to you, their

painfully won successes are now unimpor­tant. They are pushed aside.

And Magic Johnson is "a champion for the world." A man whose infection, he quickly claimed on "The Arsenio Hall Show," came from having sex with an infected woman whom he doesn't remem­ber. A man who, even while admitting his infection, bent over backwards to ensure that there was no chance anyone would perceive him as being gay. Rather than refute the stereotypes, he perpetuates them. He must be straight, thus somehow innocent. Someone else, someone dirty, is the scapegoat; she is to blame. But, the man who died because he made love to his partner (100,000 and counting) is only an "unnamed homosexual".

Get over it folks. This is a virus. It infects people through contact with another's blood, semen or urine. Safer sex is re­quired. We must teach it. More research, both into treatment and cure, is required. We must fund it. Stop looking for some "magical" hero. Stop looking for some "magical" solution.

Realize that the heroes are all around us. They're ignored. They're threatened. They are rarely appreciated. They keep going. They get results. If you can't salute them, please refrain from insulting them.

Inability to identify anti-Semitism hurts To the editor:

In response to David Nickum's op-ed piece of Nov. 19, I would like to express that while I personally am incensed by The Chronicle's decision to run the Committee for Open Debate on the Holocaust adver­tisement, I am not angry because I feel that The Chronicle agrees with its lies. Rather, I am angered by the newspaper's lack of ability to identify anti-Semitism.

Editors of The Chronicle have stated that it does not print "racially or ethnically slurring ads." By printing the CODOH ad, then, the editors of The Chronicle demon­strate that they feel the ad is not "racially or ethnically slurring." Their refusal to print an apology reinforces this sentiment. Apparently, The Chronicle feels that ma­terial referring to the drive to educate people ofthe horrors ofthe Holocaust as a

"success story of a PR campaign" brought about by "Jewish propaganda agencies" is not "ethnically slurring". I am frightened. The scariest part of racism and anti-Semitism is when people cannot recognize it and thus do nothing to stop its spread.

My unoriginal plea is for The Chronicle to officially apologize if it feels it has pub­lished a "racially or ethnically slurring" advertisement, violating its own policy. If it does, the Duke community will know that The Chronicle is aware ofthe differ­ence between a dissenting opinion and anti-Semitism. If not, I apologize to the slaughtered 12 million who have not been given the respect they deserve.

Gotcha! must perform self-evaluation To the editor:

The title of the article in the Nov. 18 Chronicle regarding the Gotcha! incident ("Knife-wielding man threatens Gotcha! team") severely misrepresented the situa­tion described. I did not read about any­body wielding a knife or threatening any­body. What I did read was that on a dark night, three people followed a man for several minutes, making him suspicious, and then proceeded to approach him, as far as he was concerned, threateningly. If* I had a knife, I would have pulled it, too.

As the Gotcha! members begin to re­evaluate their program, I would like to

offer some suggestions. Ask yourselves: what goal are we trying to accomplish? Is it realistic? What are the effective methods we can employ to attain that goal? I am very proud of "knife man." He knows this campus is not safe, and he is taking effec­tive measures to avoid personal harm. He did not threaten or try to hurt anyone. He just said very directly with his actions: "I am not a person to be messing with. Leave me alone." Three Gotcha! people did.

FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 2 1 , 1 9 9 1 THE CHRONICLE PAGE 9

Meaning of life pervades individual, national consciousness The alarm clock failed to answer me. I stared at it, waiting for an answer, but it refused to say

anything. Its lights merely burned their image into my mind.

So I tried a different tact. I stared across the room, at the emptiness. No luck.

I left my room, racing down the stairs and out the door. I felt the cold air on my face and made my way across the quad.

Still no answer. I suppose I will always wonder, never quite knowing-

Isn't that so often the case? Last month I promised to deliver the meaning of life.

Well, I'm almost finished, but I think 111 need an exten­sion. Can you give me until January?

In the meantime, I'll propose a rough draft: We spend our days trying to get ahead, to attain

whatever it is we want. For some, it's money. For others, it's fame. Or a sense of self-satisfaction. Or doing good for others. Or simply pondering the meaning ofit all.

Anyway, we spend our time doing these various tasks, and we fall into a pattern. A routine. A rut.

Once in a while, something stirs us from our habits, forcing us to reconsider. Whether we reconsider our din­ner plans or our career is not important. It is simply the fact of something striking a chord within us.

These times constitute the meaning of life.

For anyone who cares, I got my Duke Card back. I'm sure you've been following the story: poor, innocent ten­nis-playing victim leaves his wallet in his tennis bag, on the side ofthe court. Man sits down on the bench with a smile. He leaves with a smile. And a wallet.

Someone found the wallet a week and a half later. And

• 42 Jason Greenwald

Some humble advice: don't get so caught up in your life that you forget to live.

he actually returned it to me! The money was gone, of course, but I didn't care. I just wanted the Duke Card. Now that I've got it back, though, I'm thinking the picture of me is a lousy one. Maybe it really wasn't such a big deal. Go figure.

Back to the meaning of life . . .

I'm not sure exactly how those separate moments fit together, but when we step outside our daily routine, we get a glimpse of something deeper.

Meeting someone new, trying a new kind of food, taking the long way home—being different not merely for the sake of being different, but for the experience offered by it.

Yet how easy it is to fall into patterns: to talk to the same people, to dress the same way, to go to the same places.

How many times have you promised to study harder? To get into shape? To broaden your horizons?

It doesn't even need to be something altogether new. Just a novel way of doing something. Relating differently to friends. Taking time to get to know that really interest­

ing person with whom you have only a passing acquain­tance. Or smiling instead of wearing the mask of malcon­tent that too often adorns our faces.

These little things can make a difference, but only if they take us out of our routines and make us think.

The past few months have been filled with countless opportunities to re-think ourselves.

The Soviet coup. Clarence Thomas. David Duke. The Holocaust ad. Magic Johnson.

Each matters intensely for a few days or weeks and then fades from view. Each can truly mean something only if we let it.

How many of us will be thinking about Clarence Tho­mas next week? Next month? Next year, unless an abor­tion case comes before the Court?

On a personal level, we have even more opportunities for re-evaluation. But it is so easy to pass them by. To absorb ourselves in work. To ignore the protests outside our windows. To forget the people who matter most to us.

It's so difficult to pull ourselves from the rut of our daily existence. But that rut becomes self-perpetuating. Once we stop looking at the world around us, it is difficult to start again. We forget how. And then we're nearly the automatons that inhabit the worlds of Orwell and Huxley.

But we can change. As Billy Joel once wrote: "I got to begin again, but I don't know where to start.

Yes, I got to begin again, and it's hard." It is hard, but it's vital. I therefore offer some humble advice, which I myself am

trying to follow: Don't get so caught up in your life that you forget to live. Jason Greenwald is a Trinity junior and managing

editor of The Chronicle.

'Issues Weeks' to address problems facing Americans "You have to understand, Head Start is much more

than just preschool education. Fifty percent of our staffs time is spent working with families . . . . We know that if we want the child to learn, we have to help the family."

So said Sharon Glynne, the coordinator of Fairfax County, Virginia's Head Start program. Currently, Head Start, a comprehensive, nationwide program of educa­tion, health care and social services for preschool children initiated in 1965 by President Lyndon Johnson, has places for fewer than 20 percent of children eligible for it. Indeed, an international study completed in 1990 by the Economic Policy Institute concluded that the United States spends proportionately less on education than 13 other major industrialized nations. The results are hardly surprising. In another international study conducted last year, American 13-year-olds finished last in math and nearly last in science.

It is in this backdrop of unrelenting bad news concern­ing the state of American education and its students that President Bush unveiled his "revolutionary" plan last April to revitalize our nation's schools. As House Majority Leader Richard Gephardt noted, if America's colonists had the same definition of revolutionary, we would still be the property of Great Britain.

Democrats see the issue of education to be integral to the future success of this nation. The issue is no longer, as Gephardt commented in his speech here last week, one of compassion. Rather, it is one of pragmatism. America has become less productive than its competitors because of the failure of our schools to educate our students; crime and drugs plague our nation because poorly trained men and women cannot find jobs. Our educational system's continued failure threatens the future health and well-being of this nation, and Duke Democrats desires real educational reform and a significant fiscal investment in our nation's schools. President Bush's plan provides nei­ther.

Rather, Bush, in unveiling his educational reform plan, pushed the idea that students and their parents need the freedom to "choose" between public, private or parochial schools—and to have their federal dollars follow them wherever they choose to go. Furthermore, Bush's plan called for national testing of America's students in grades four, eight and 12 (without, of course, indicating the content of these exams, their format or how and by whom they should be administered), and a paltry $690 million funding increase to buttress our nation's sagging school system.

The president's plan, in the words of Michael Casserly, associate director ofthe Council of Great City Schools, is "probably unworkable administratively and probably unconstitutional." The separation of church and state required by the First Amendment makes Bush's plan to use federal dollars to fund religiously-based education utterly unconstitutional. As for the gargantuan (perhaps

• Guest column Andrew Moskowitz impossible) task of rerouting federal funds on a per pupil basis, had Bush perhaps consulted people like Michael Casserly, he would have had a clearer understanding of how our nation's school system actually works.

Even more important than the faults in Bush's plan is his total neglect of the most salient educational issues. The effectiveness ofthe Head Start program is unequivo­cally acknowledged by both the Left and the Right, and congressional Democrats such as North Carolina Senator Terry Sanford regularly ask that it receive full funding. Bush's plan, however, ignores this crucial program. The president pushes the notion of parental choice. What will happen, one must wonder, to those students whose parent or parents are not equipped to choose? On the West Side of Chicago, 84 percent of the children are born to single mothers. Indeed nationwide, statistics show that the majority of all mothers with children under five work. Yet, rather than improve upon programs like Head Start, which engages families rather than placing the burden upon them, President Bush has chosen to indulge in

"choice" and other cost-free nostrums and proclaim "dol­lar bills don't educate students."

Horace Mann said to the Massachusetts Board of Edu­cation in 1848 that "education . . . is a great equalizer .. . . It does better than to disarm the poor of their hostility toward the rich; it prevents being poor." Clearly, contem­porary education does not live up to this goal. Duke Democrats sees the issue of reform as one of the most important issues facing our nation as we approach the new millennium.

Our nation needs to undergo a fundamental perestroika of our own if we are to face and conquer the challenges of the twenty-first century. This being the case, Duke Demo­crats seeks to raise consciousness through a series of "issues weeks." This week has been devoted to education. Over the course of the next few weeks, we intend to address the issues of preserving the environment, re­structuring and strengthening our economy and promot­ing a system of health care accessible to all citizens in our country. Introducing and debating these issues are the only ways to properly solve them. Duke Democrats hopes that our series of "issues weeks" will be small first steps in finding solutions to our nation's problems.

Andrew Moskowitz is a Trinity senior and an executive committee member of Duke Democrats.

Legal counsel Gray's pro-conservative spin spins away from desired outcome • CIVIL from page 2 interpretation of certain provisions of the new anti-dis­crimination law that gives employers the broadest discre­tion in citing "business necessity" to defend policies that exclude blacks, women and other minority groups from hiring.

In his speech, which amounted to a highly unusual repudiation of a close aide and followed a chaotic over­night review of the proposed changes in Federal hiring practices, the president cast aside Gray's language on affirmative action.

That language was sent out to Cabinet departments late Wednesday afternoon, and early in the evening senior administration officials said it reflected White House policy. Later in the evening, the press office said the matter was not decided and was still under review.

On Thursday, White House officials said Gray had sent

out the directive without consulting either Bush or John

Sununu, thechiefofstaff. They saidthereviewbeganThursday

night when Bush became aware ofthe matter through inquir­

ies from news organizations and lawmakers.

In place of the statement circulated Wedneday night,

the president Thursday offered a statement of support for

affirmative action programs. He never mentioned Gray's

proposal.

Bush had hoped to savor after vetoing a version ofthe

bill last year, still seemed shaded by the debate over

affirmative action and over "business necessity."

"This administration is committed to action that is

truly affirmative, positive action in every sense, to strike

down all barriers to advancement of every kind for all

people," Bush said.

Football looks to foil bowl hopes of archrival North Carolina By JOHN UYHAM

The basketball trophies, balls and pho­tos stolen from Cameron Indoor Stadium last week have all been returned to the Duke campus and are safely locked away in their glass display case, but there is an item left in Chapel Hill which the football team wants to bring back when the team visits North Carolina on Saturday — The Victory Bell. The bell ended a three-year stay in Durham last fall when the Tar Heels walked out of Wallace Wade Sta­dium with it and a 24-22 victory.

Most ofthe players from the North Caro­lina team which spirited the bell away to Chapel Hill have returned this season. Foremost among them is sophomore tailback Natrone Means, who shredded the Blue Devil defense for 256 yards in last year's game, and is currently the top rusher in the Atlantic Coast Conference, averag­ing 94 yards per game.

Means showed off his speed last year with a 76-yard touchdown run against Duke, and at 240 pounds, Means gener­ates a great deal of momentum once he gets going.

"He is a load," said Duke head coach Barry Wilson, "And yet, if he gets into the secondary he is fast enough that not very many are going to catch him. Our defense is going to have to tackle well and in large numbers."

UNC starting fullback Mike Faulkerson also weighs in at a healthy 240 pounds, and the Tar Heels' offensive line averages an enormous 280 pounds. Despite having such a significant size advantage over the Blue Devils, North Carolina head coach Mack Brown says that his team will have to do more to win Saturday than simply

run the ball straight at Duke and try to overpower the Blue Devils.

"Duke's done a good job of lining up in multiple defenses and moving their guys a lot beacuse they're not as big," said Brown. "Defensively they've got a very good scheme, so you can't just fine up and run the ball. We'll have to be balanced to have a chance to move it against them."

When the Tar Heels do go to the air, their passeswill project from the arm of freshman quarterback Jason Stanicek. Stanicek took over the starting position after North Carolina's other two quarter­backs, juniors Chuckie Burnette and Todd Burnett, were sidelined by injury after Carolina's 35-14 loss to Georgia Tech.

Stanicek has not exactly sizzled since taking over the starting spot. In the past three games he is averaging only 110 yards per game and has thrown for three touch­downs and two interceptions.

Most of Stanicek's completions have found their way into the hands of sopho­more split end Corey Holliday. Holliday leads the team with 37 receptions and averages 12 yards per catch.

On defense, the Tar Heels top priority will be stopping Dave Brown from having another big day against them. Last year Brown completed 25-of-47 passes against North Carolina for 337 yards. In 1989, Brown threw for a whopping 479 yards against the Tar Heels.

"[Brown has] dealt us misery over the last two ball games we've played against him," said Brown.

Junior linebacker Tommy Thigpen, who ig second in the ACC in tackles, has been the star for the Tar Heels on defense.

UNC sophomore tailback Natrone Means ran for 256 yards in the Tar Heels' 24-22 victory over Duke last season.

Magic must speak out for all AIDS victims It was two weeks ago yesterday that you heard about

Magic Johnson. You know where you were and what you were doing and who told you because it was that kind of news. You shook your head with disbelief, tried to find just the right words and speculated about what would be next—for Magic, for the NBA, for AIDS.

For two weeks now, we have been inundated with commentary and reaction. Columnists, politicians, ath­letes. Everybody has had something to say about Magic Johnson.

The reaction, at first, was predictable. We read flowery, nostalgic Magic remembrances and saw slow-motion tele­vision stories with melancholy music in the background. We saw reactions around the NBA, tales of phones ringing off hooks at AIDS information centers and an incredible outpouring of support from a shocked and sympathetic public.

We also saw the worst of American attitudes towards AIDS and sexuality.

Why should it shock us that Magic Johnson contracted HIV? AIDS has been around for much longer than two weeks, and it has been at the forefront of national media attention. Almost one million Americans are HIV-posi­tive. Two hundred thousand have AIDS. Surely, to add one more to the long list should be no huge surprise, right?

So why should Magic be special? Because he's always been special. He's famous and popular and handsome and charismatic and everybody loves him. That was the big difference.

He is also heterosexual. That is another big difference. The day after his historic press conference at The

Forum to announce his retirement, Magic appeared on the Arsenio Hall Show. It was then he addressed the first question that is asked of every man who has ever con­tracted AIDS: Are you gay? Magic, as diplomatic as he knew how to be, told Arsenio, "I am far from being a homosexual." The audience roared its approval.

The message was clear. Magic, we feel, bad for you. You didn't deserve to get the AIDS virus.

Were Magic a homosexual or an intravenous drug user, that message would have been different.

Were Magic a promiscuous woman instead of a promis­cuous man, that message would have been different.

In this week's Sports Illustrated, Magic writes, "In Los Angeles, I was never far from .admiring, women. There

Seth Davis were just some bachelors almost every woman in LA. wanted to be with.. . I confess that after I arrived in L.A., in 1979,1 did my best to accommodate as many women as I could—most of them through unprotected sex."

Indeed, the legendary ease with which athletes woo women is nothing new. Says Phoenix Suns guard Kevin Johnson, "We don't even have to try. We come into town, and the women come out in force. They know who we are, how much money we make. They throw themselves at us." In his recently-released autobiography, Wilt Chamber­lain claimed proudly that he had had sex with 20,000 women. That's 1.37 women a day since the age of 15.

What if a female athlete contracted HIV for just that kind of behavior? What if it happened to another great and famous athlete, who happened to be homosexual?

Tennis great Martina Navratilova was asked just that this past week. She happens to be a woman and an admitted lesbian, and has been just as great at tennis as Magic has been at basketball. Here's what she had to say: "Like if I had the AIDS virus, if people would be under­standing? No, because they'd say I'm gay. . . . That's why they're accepting it with [Magic], because supposedly he got it through heterosexual contact.

"What I don't understand is that like, Magic says he was just trying to accommodate these women. That is just terrible. Just think about the word— If it had happened to a heterosexual woman who had been with 100 or 200 men, they'd call her a whore and a slut and the corpora­tions would drop her like a dead balloon."

Navratilova's tone is hardly in the spirit ofthe tone of the past two weeks. But she is correct. Absolutely, posi­tively, one thousand percent correct.

Magic has volunteered to be America's spokesman on AIDS, and few in this world have more of what it takes to do it well. As Roy Johnson, Magic's biographer and close friend, said, "It's as if the adulation and success from his basketball career was a preparation, a way of getting the world on his side. It's as if this is what he was really meant to do."

Indeed, we are all on Magic's side. And we are more reliant on him now than we've ever been before. The

Volleyball favored in ACC tournament By LEWIS KRAUSKOPF

While most of Duke's varsity teams have already wrapped up their fall seasons with disappointing results, the volleyball team enters this weekend's Atlantic Coast Conference tournament in Charlottesville, Virginia with an excellent chance of achieving its goals.

Duke is the top seed in the ACC tournament, and will face Clemson today in the first round. The Blue Devils, who finished the regular season 22-6 and undefeated in the ACC, are currently ranked 20th in the nation. The team, in addition to a conference championship, will be seeking the league's automatic bid into the NCAA tournament which comes with the tournament title.

Last Friday, after defeating Maryland the previous week to capture the ACC regular season crown, Duke triumphed over a tough Louisville squad, in a game which they could have looked beyond. As a result, head coach Jon Wilson is optimistic about his team'schances this weekend.

"We have so much talent as a team, that if we put pressure on anybody else we're going to beat them," Wilson said.

Winning its first ACC title since 1986 will not be easy for Duke as the ACC is well balanced this year. In a tournament which he believes will be the most competitive ever, Wilson is not taking the champion­ship for granted.

"Anybody up there can end our season," Wilson said. "All [opponents] deserve the same level of intensity."

The quest for the championship will be led by senior captain Karen Greiner and outside hitters junior Amy Verhoeven and freshman Ashley Wacholder. Greiner has been one ofthe leading setters in the country this season and is likely to be considered for All-America honors. In addition, she has led the Blue Devils on the court with her intensity and hustle.

Verhoeven andWacholder, the recipients of Greiner's sets all season, have been killing the ball with great

Blue Devils look to regain Victory Bell in Chapel Hill • TARHEELS from page 13 Thigpen had to pick up ^ome of the slack for All-ACC, senior linebacker Dwight Hollier who missed the first four weeks of the season recovering from a broken foot. Hollier has returned and strengthened a solid, if not spectacular, North Carolina run defense.

While North Carolina has played the ran well, the Tar Heels have had their problems defending the pass. Opponents are averaging 195 yards through the air against them, and the Tar Heels have given up a conference high 14 passing touchdowns.

With a 6-4 record, North Carolina still has an outside shot at a bowl game. With a win against the Blue Devils this week­

end, and a loss by either Arkansas or Indiana, the Tar Heels could find them­selves playing in either the Independence Bowl or the Copper Bowl. However, Coach Brown has tried to downplay the bowl implications of Saturday's game.

"I feel that it would be in my best inter­est and the team's best interest to focus on Duke and stay away from the bowls," said Brown.

NOTE: The last time Duke played in Chapel Hill in 1989, the Blue Devils de­feated North Carolina, 41-0, capping off an 8-3 regular season and sending the Tar Heels to their second straight 1-10 record. That game was the most lopsided victory in the Duke-Carolina series since it began in 1888.

Duke can secure NCAA bid with ACC tournament title • VOLLEYBALL from page 13 effeciency. Duke's success has been a team effort, however, with contributions from nearly every player leading to the team's success. Starters Linda Bianchi, Jen Rohrig and Adrian Nicol, and substitutes Melanee Alexander and Heather Norton all have played importantroles this season.

"To win any championship you have to play well as a team," Wilson said. "We're

not looking for anyone to play outside themselves. We're just asking everybody to pull their weight and support each other."

As the lone senior, it will be Greiner's last ACC tournament. Greiner is a shoe-in for the All-ACC team for the second straight season and is finishing her career as one of the top players in Blue Devil history. "Karen has played so well she doen't de­serve to be compared to anyone," Wilson said. "She's just been Karen Greiner: great person, great setter, great volleyball player. A winner."

With a strong performance from Greiner this weekend, the Blue Devils should have a few more volleyball matches left before ending their spectacular season. Those will come in the NCAA tournament.

Johnson must fight to change American attitudes about AIDS • MAGIC from page 13 responsibility in his hands right now is more crucial to us than any Laker fast break ever was.

But if he is going to speak out to Ameri­cans about AIDS, he is going to have to speak to Americans about their attitude towards AIDS. He can't jus t tell us to use a condom. He can't just tell his buddies in the NBA to be careful as they're "accom­modating" their throngs of lady admirers. He can't be insensitive to women and to homosexuals the way he has been the last two weeks.

He must continue to uphold the stan­dards of grace and class that he himself set during his 12 years in the NBA. He must tell us to help him, to support him, but to do so with no more fervor than we would any other AIDS victim. He must tell us to examine our own attitudes about AIDS and sexuality, and to fight for maximum government support and education. That is what a good spokesman does.

And that is exactly what America needs. Now more than ever.

Grid Picks The Trophy Case—"It's great to see our memorabilia back in

the front of Cameron where it belongs," remarked Marc "Orel"

Sacks as he walked out of the lobby having picked up the latest

swimming poll from the sports misinformation office.

"Yeah. look, there's Grant on the cover of Sports Ill-Stated laying

it in with his left hand," added Matt "The Weasel" Sclafani.

"Wait a minute!" stammered a startled Sacks. "Grant is right-

handed!" A closer look revealed that the magazine cover was a

cheap forgery made with construction paper and Crayola markers.

"And look at this!" yelled David "Bionic Man" Royster, pointing

to a trophy proclaiming Bryan Ferry, the lead singer of Roxy Music,

the ACC's Athlete of the Year.

"Guys, we're obviously dealing with some sophisicated criminal

minds here," whispered Seth "Silent Sam" Davis.

"Well, they might have been devious enough to dupe one of the

top collegiate athletic departments in the nation, but they're no

match for the Grid Pickers!" proclaimed Mike "Rockin"' Robbins.

The gang piled into vehicles and headed down 15-501. When the

reached Chapel Hill, they split up and agreed to reconvene in a

couple of hours.

Mark "The Ghost" Jaffe decided to head down to the Franklin

Street Bar and Grill to see if he could find any leads. As he entered

the establishment, the bouncer said, "Come with me."

"But this is my real ID! I'-m 21 ! " pleaded Jaffe.

"This isn't about your ID, Mr. Grid Picking snoop," the bouncer

informed him, his bicep now bulging with anticipation. "My boss

says you've been sticking your nose where it doesn't belong."

"Where's Jaffe?" asked Ann "Sheepdog" Heimberger when the

others reconvened. "I mean, besides behind me in Grid Picks."

"Oh, you know him, he's probably Still trying to find at least one

girl who won't run away when he dances up to her in Players," said

Brian "The Fish" Kaufman. "Let's leave him—he'll be fine,"

The next day. Weasel, Brian "Waverunner" Doster, and Hsh met

up heading into the Allen Building. With a mighty push, the Fish

creaked the door to Dean Wilson's office open.

"Hmmm . . . it's dark. I won—." but before he could finish the

sentence, the three were grabbed from behind and their screams for

help muffled.

At the same time. Sheepdog was approached by a man wearing

a headset.

"Hi, I'm Kent Rockman, TV-12 news, I was wondering if you

would mind commenting on your recent controversy?" Ann, never

camera-shy, agreed.

"Could I come, too?" asked "Silent Sam." "I've never been on

TV before."

"Uh . . . sure." said the newsman. "We'll film right around the

back of this building. Follow me . . ."

When it came time the Grid Pickers gathered for their daily'Devil

Dogs at the BP, only three members of the group showed up: Sacks,

Royster and Robbins. In a panic, they stumbled upon John "Wolver­

ine" Uyham enjoying a Clara's burger.

"What's up, guys?" Uyham asked.

"Oh, John, it'snotgood," pantedSacks. "We've been investigat­

ing the theft of the basketball items from Cameron and ever since

Grid Pickers have been disappearing. We're the only three left!"

"That is a problem, who's going to be the sports editor now?"

Uyham asked. "I am!" all three shouted.

"Wait a minute!" exclaimed Uyham. "The Duke-Kansas ball was

found in front of a fraternity section in Chapel Hill. Do you know which

frat it was?"

"Sigma Chi, I think," said Robbins. "Why?"

Without a word. Uyham led the group up to the second floor of

House C and pounded on a door.

"We know you're in there, flaky redhead!" Uyham shouted.

"Come out with your hands up."

Beoming impatient, Royster decided to bust down the door.

After tripping a couple of times, he eventually succeeded. When the

group looked in, however, they did not find the redhead, but a tall

brunette singing "Groove is in the Heart."

"Oops, sorry," Robbins said sheepishly.

The four then headed over to the Sigma Chi section on Duke's

east campus. They arrived during the middle of a beer frisbee game

and the section was desolate. A faint whimper could be heard from

the basement.

"Ah ha!" Sacks exclaimed, bursting into the roorA where Kris

"Big Daddy" Olson's carcass sat slumped in a chair. Occassionally,

the body would twitch as a result of the continuing shocks from Blair

"Buckeye" Boardman.

" Sportswriters like you made Billy transfer!" she shouted mania­

cally. "I had to steal the memorabilia, it was the only thing I had left

to remember him by."

Thus, the Grid Pickers foiled the plot of the evil redhead. But

questions still remain. Is the Big Daddy dead, or just sleepy? What

about the fate of the missing Grid Pickers? Will Waverunner be

upset Boardman got to Grid Pick? Who will be sports editor in 1992?

For the answers, tune in next vear.

Getting Attention All-America Christian Laettner must make time for hoops

By KRIS OLSON The race is on.

No, not the one waged between the nation's top collegiate basketball teams to decide who will be the 1992 national cham­pion, but the race between the nation's sportswriters to come up with new, ob­scure information on one of the most vis­ible college players in the nation, Chris­tian Laettner.

A quick rundown ofthe "old" stories: Laettner and roommate Brian Davis

have a black and white cat named "Orea," the feminine form of "Oreo." They kept the cat on campus furtively until it was discov­ered last year, causing them to lose their housing license.

Last semester, he took a course in biol­

ogy to learn more about the human leg so as to understand more fully the nature of any injuries he might suffer.

Laettner is currently keeping a diary for Gentleman's Quarterly magazine. GQ will print excerpts in the spring or summer of 1992, after next year's Final Four and the National Basketball Association draft have been completed.

Cats, bio classes and GQ features have little to do with the talent that gained Laettner the notoriety he has accrued. But having feature writers hungry to examine your personal affairs just comes with the territory when you are the NCAA Final Four MVP and the McKevlin Award win­ner as the Atlantic Coast Conference's top athlete of 1991.

CUFF BURNS/THE CHRONICLE

Christian Laettner scored 18 points against Mark Randall and Kansas in the NCAA championship game to earn Final Four MVP honors.

The 6-10 Angola, NY, native has only himself to blame for all the attention he has been getting throughout his Duke ca­reer. After all, if he wanted to keep a low profile, he should have just left well enough alone and let heralded fellow freshman Alonzo Mourning of Georgetown keep the spotlight in the 1989 East Regional Final. Instead, Laettner stepped into that light, scoring 24 points and grabbing nine re­bounds.

If he did not want to be noticed, he could have allowed the number one seed in the East Region in 1990, the Connecticut Hus­kies, to take their rightful place in the Final Four in Denver. Instead, he took a return pass after inboundingthe ball with 2.6 seconds left and hit a double-pump jumper to lift Duke to a 79-78 win.

If he wanted to remain in the shadows, he could have hid behind the hulking 7-2, 290-pound frame of LSU center Shaquille O'Neal in their matchup last year. In­stead, he limited O'Neal to a season-low 15 points and scored 24 of his own as Duke won 88-70.

Laettner has sought out attention by playing a big role in big games, and there were none of greater magnitude than the two he played in the 1991 Final Four in Indianapolis. Laettner led Duke past undefeated UNLV with 28 points and seven rebounds, then battled fatigue and Kan­sas' Mark Randall for 18 points and 10 rebounds in the 72-65 championship win.

Laettner had little time to rest before departing, along with teammates Grant Hill and Thomas Hill, for Havana, Cuba, to play in the Pan American Games. He described the play there as very physical, as he was banging against bodies several years older than his. Yet, for all the bumps and bruises, Laettner described it as a very valuable experience.

"[The physical play is] something I'll have to get used to and a lot of the people on the Pan American team will have to get used to if they want to play at the next level," Laettner said. "With all the bump­ing and grinding... that's how it's going to be in the NBA."

He returned to Duke in the fall and immediately resumed the routine of daily pickup games until the start of practice on

DUKE SPORTS INFORMATION

Christian Laettner Oct. 15. The games that occur before the official start of practice in Cameron Indoor Stadium and Card Gymnasium are no mere dress rehearsals. Members of Duke teams past and present, as well as ACC foes, are known to participate. This fall no less than three NBA players: former Duke stars Johnny Dawkins and Danny Ferry and former Georgia Tech standout Dennis Scott, took part in the informal games.

The level of intensity matches the level of talent out on the court as well.

"We've been over in Card [Gym] playing a few times and the next day I'll see some regular students and they are like, 'I thought you guys were going to fight when I saw you guys playing in Card yester­day,"' Laettner said.

In addition to keeping him in the best possible shape, the pickup games have allowed Laettner to add another weapon to his already impressive offensive arse­nal. For much ofthe fall, there was no one in the games with the height to guard him in the paint. Rather than take easy bas­kets down low, Laettner challenged him­self and began launching three-point shots with a great deal of success.

"I've been shooting a lot of three-point­ers all fall," Laettner said. "I think it's because I've been shooting really, really well all fall. Afew people like [former Duke guard] Quin Snyder came up to me and said, You're releasing the ball well and it's getting up their quick.' He was right I hope I can keep that [up] all year."

Laettner first two years, Laettner hit 18 of 53 at­tempts last season. If Laettner has his way, his number of attempts will increase again this year.

Laettner's skills, new and old, will help him tackle a number of important goals this season. One ofthe most prominent of these would seem to be repeating as na­tional champions, although Laettner said that has not entered into his or his team­mates' thinking.

"We'll talk about winning the national championship [last year], but there's never any talk about repeating," Laettner said. "We're young... we don't look that far into the future. We don't look into March or April. We look into next week, when we've got a test, or we look into next week when we've got to run the mile."

A more immediate challenge for Laettner will be to help whip this year's freshmen, Cherokee Parks and Erik Meek, into form for the season. When Laettner was a fresh­man, he had All-American Ferry to teach him the ways of the ACC. Now Laettner hopes to do the same for Parks and Meek.

"That's one ofthe biggest jobs I have this year, to help them out, make them im­prove and bring them along so they can be effective and start doing things by them­selves next year," Laettner said. "It's more than basketball things, Xs and Os things. It's more about leadership and communi­cation and how to interact with your team­mates. It's more than physical things. They'll learn the physical things by them­selves."

Laettner should also attain several per­sonal goals this year. With another solid season, his jersey number is destined to join Ferry's and the other four hanging from the rafters in Cameron Indoor Sta­dium.

After his Duke career comes to a close, it will be on to bigger and more lucrative

From page 4 things for Laettner. As a sure-fire NBA "lottery" (top-11) pick and possibly the top pick in the draft, Laettner will likely have signed his name to a seven-figure contract by this time next year.

Laettner could have left school after the success of his junior season and did attract a lot of interest from the pros. But for Laettner, the decision to stay in school was not a difficult one.

"There's no reason for me not to be . . . secure in thinking I'll have another really good season," Laettner said. "I wanted to defend my national championship and I want to be around Coach K and my team another year. I can increase my stock dras­tically. That's why I did it."

Laettner may get a preview of NBA life this summer. He is prominent among a short list of collegiate players who are being mentioned as candidates for a spot on the U.S. Olympic basketball team. This is the first year professionals have been allowed to compete on the U.S. team, but at least one spot on the roster has been reserved for a college player.

Laettner has experience in international competition and was recently rewarded for his dedication by the governing body of U.S. amateur basketball, USA Basketball, as its player of the year. He would not mind adding Barcelona, Spain to his travel log in 1992.

"I think [the Olympics] would be some­thing that would be extraordinary. I would love to do it," Laettner said. "If I was able to be on that team it would give me a very big step on the rest of my peers—the kids that enter the NBA the same time I will.

"I just hope I'm one ofthe players that is picked to try out with the team. It might be more fun just going there and seeing how good [the pros] are. Being cut might not be all that bad. I just want to see them, see how they play and see how good they are."

PAGE 6 /THE CHRONICLE ACC BASKETBALL PREVIEW FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 22, 1991

More than a mouth Senior Brian Davis turns from communicating to finishing

By BRIAN DOSTER Die-hard Duke basketball fans have

probably watched the Blue Devils' 1991 NCAA national semifinal game against Nevada-Las Vegas several times. Those unforgetable final moments before Ander­son Hunt's potential game-winning three-point shot bounded harmlessly away from the basket included Brian Davis' comple­tion of a three-point play that put Duke on top, 77-76. Although important for the

Blue Devils' 1991 NCAA Championship, that single play may have even greater significance for senior co-captain Davis' upcoming season.

"The thing that Brian had a problem with last year was finishing," men's bas­ketball coach Mike Krzyzewski said. "He'd get fouled and he wouldn't get many three-point plays. He can run the court so well and he's not afraid to attack the basket that you need to finish the play. The play

MARK WASMER/THE CHRONICLE,

Senior forward Brian Davis is one of the best defensive players in the ACC. This season he wants to prove his mettle at the offensive end of the court.

against Vegas that put us ahead to me was like the start of where he finishes plays. He can do that and that was a huge play in that game."

Throughout his Duke basketball career, Davis has been regarded as an outstand­ing defender who runs the floor well, but his offensive production, except for spo­radic games, has never been stellar. For his career, Davis averages 5.2 points per game, but he scored 15 points against UNLV last March.

During last year's regular season Davis became infamous for making great moves to the basket which resulted in the ball clanging or rolling off the rim. This season Davis hopes to make himself a more well-rounded and consistent player on the of­fensive end. Finishing plays will be impor­tant in achieving that goal.

"I'm going to always be there on the break and my defense is always going to be there, said Davis. "I just want to finish strong and if I have a three-pointer and I'm able to shoot it, hit it."

Davis did "hit it" this summer, as he improved his shooting while playing in Europe with an NIT All-Star team.

"I shot a lot," Davis said. "This summer was very important for me to show what I could do outside of Duke... A lot of times I would play against their best offensive player but I would be our leading scorer also, so it was important for me... I showed some things and it was fun and some of those things have carried over here [at Duke] too."

As part of his effort to broaden his game, Davis is eager to shed a label he acquired last season as the Duke team communica­tor. He wants more recognition for his basketball talent than for his people skills.

"I'm still probably the team's best com­municator, but I don't want to be a commu­nicator, I want to be a player," Davis said.

Krzyzewski jokingly understands Davis' motivation for trying to do away with the communicator image.

"It's like saying someone has a good personality where you don't look at any^ thing else." Krzyzewski said. "Like this guy weighs 210 pounds and he's 5-2 and he's got a horse face and he's got a nice personality."

DUKE SPORTS INFORMATION

Brian Davis But Krzyzewski does not want Davis, in

the midst of his desire to be known for something else, to lose site of his ability to play an important verbal role for the Blue Devils.

"I'm sure he wants people to see other things that he's doing but we will make sure that he doesn't forget about [his role as a communicator]," Krzyzewski said.

"He can help, I think, as much as any­body making the guys coming off the bench feel comfortable when they get in because he's such a good communicator," Krzyzewski said."... When Erik [Meek] or Cherokee [Parks] or Marty [Clark] come on the floor, especially early on in the season, how Brian and some of our veter­ans react to those guys and help them will be key."

Davis' drive to round out his game is partly attributable to a desire to increase his potential for playing professional bas­ketball after his graduation from Duke next spring.

"He's grown a little, he's about 6-7 now," Krzyzewski said. "He's improved his shoot­ing. He's very competitive and he's such a good athlete. I think he's got a chance.

"He's got to understand that one ofthe best ways to prepare for the pros is to be that complementary player on our team because that's what he would be if he makes it in the NBA. Brian will play some place. If he didn't make it in the NBA I think he can play in Europe. Basketball is ahead for Brian if he wants it to be, but he also has other options."

Davis interned this past summer on Wall Street and has worked on Capitol Hill. He hopes to go to law school and enter politics or possibly go back to Wall Street after finishing a professional basketball career.

Despite finishing plays on the court in the 1991 Final Four, in a minor way Davis' season was not quite complete when he returned to Duke from Indianapolis last

STAFF PHOTO/THE CHRONICLE

Brian Davis' NBA hopes will depend upon his offensive prowess this season.

From page 6 spring. Naturally, the Blue Devils missed the raucous festivities taking place on cam­pus after both the championship game against Kansas and the UNLV game, but during their welcoming home ceremony, Davis and his teammates invited all the hungover undergraduates to one final vic­tory bash.

*We were upset because we were watch­ing all the parties on TV and although we won the game we're not partying at any of the big parties," Davis said. "Once we got back everybody wanted to do homework because they'd been partying all weekend. We we're back and said, What about our party?' We didn't have a party and the guys on the team said, 'Brian, lets throw a party!' It was difficult because it was Tues­day night but a lot of people came out. But we just wanted to party because we saw benches burning and heard people were running around naked."

As long as he's playing for Duke, Davis will always miss the spontaneous post-game celebrations on the quad generated by his basketball efforts, but he is not asking for sympathy. Davis is having a great time playing basketball this season.

"Ball is more fun this year because we have more guys who are excited about playing," Davis said. "Everyday in prac­tice we have fun."

Having fun seems to be Davis' only true individual goal for the season, the rest of his goals are team oriented.

"As far as Duke goes I go," Davis said. "If we do well, I'll do well."

If Duke does well this year it may be partly because Davis is finishing plays. Those die-hard fans will remember that Davis' last play in NCAA basketball com­petition was a two-handed slam that final­ized the score in the championship game against Kansas. How's that for finishing strong?

California Boys Freshmen M e e k and Parks give Duke height, intensity and enthusiasm

MARK WASMER/THE CHRONICLE

Erik Meek has fully recovered from a serious thigh injury.

By DAVID ROYSTER Making the transition from living in

Southern California to eastern North Caro­lina is certainly a traumatic experience. J u s t ask freshmen basketball players Cherokee Parks and Erik Meek, both of whom came east to Duke from their long­time residences in that most mellow re­gion of our country.

"I think it's really cold," said Meek, a 6-10 center from Escondido, near San Diego.

"I'm used to waking up in the morning out in California and seeing the sun out and wearing shorts and a T-shirt," added Parks, a 6-11 stalwart from just a little farther north in Huntington Beach near Los Angeles. "The other day I saw it was sunny and I still had to wear pants and long sleeves. I got my first jacket [since I've been here]."

But fortunately for the newest additions to the 1991 national champion Blue Dev­ils, changing gears from high school bas­ketball to the intense atmosphere of Duke hoops has not been so upsetting.

"Our guys have really accepted our fresh­men because they work real hard, they're good and they're good guys," said head coach Mike Krzyzewski. "They fit right into our team concept and that helps for a steady progression."

Indeed, neither the bone-chilling tem­peratures of the Durham winter nor the high-powered pace of the athletically tal­ented men's basketball squad has pre­vented Parks or Meek from beginning their developments into outstanding collegiate players.

Duke appeared in real-game situations twice a l ready th i s fall, once in the intersquad Blue-White Scrimmage and

once against High Five America, a group of former college players, in an exhibition which resulted in a 101-67 Duke win.

Parks participated in both, demonstrat­ing tenacity in the post against High Five while racking up 17 points, including five thunderous dunks. In the Blue-White game, Parks showcased excellent rebound­ing abilities and tough perimeter defense while jostling dovy i low with consensus second-team All 'American Chr i s t i an Laettner.

While Meek did not play in the Blue-White game because of a knee injury, he did participate in the High Five contest during which he hustled his way to a four-point, five-rebound performance in 13 min­utes of action.

Hustle is definitely an apt description of the physically imposing Meek, as he has had to overcome the effects of an accident during the summer. He was struck from behind by a drunk driver while jogging home from a friend's house. Meek, who was not able to walk for a short time after the accident, has rebounded wonderfully through a tough work ethic on the court.

"You should all have his attitude in what you do and you'll be a success," said Krzyzewski. "Erik is so enthusiastic about getting well. He fights through his limits."

Meek's attitude is exemplified in his thoughts concerning his absence on the court for the Blue-White game.

"In that game, I knew that I could play and I got that feeling like I just didn't care anymore [about being hurt]," said Meek. "If your leg falls off, then it falls off. But even though I didn't play, I just got a great feeling out there about the whole situa­tion.

"I'm at the point now where things are getting a lot better. I'm getting more fo­cused."

But Meek's skills have been very im­pressive to the Duke coaching staff which had expected him to be a bit rough after a summer of rehabilitation.

"Erik has been a surprise in that we didn't even know if he was going to play because of the automobile accident," said Krzyzewski. "Erik can play. He likes to rebound, he likes to play defense and he likes to set screens and play hard. Those are his things."

Parks also recalls the Blue-White scrim­mage a couple of weeks ago in which he made his debut in his spanking new Duke uniform in a packed Cameron Indoor Sta­dium full of anxious students and alumni.

"I walked out on the court and said, 'No way'," he said, referring to his reaction to the intensity ofthe crowd for a mere scrim­mage. "I just remember looking at the floor because you just feel like everyone's look­ing at you. It's all kind of a blur."

Although Park's visual senses may have been temporarily blinded by the majesty of a packed Cameron, he is beginning to get a feel for the challenges of playing on the defending NCAA champions, especially in the rigorous preseason practices.

"I keep forget t ing t h a t Chr i s t i an Laettner is a lottery pick and one ofthe top players in the nation," Parks said of his daily encounters in practice with the se­nior. "When he does something, I'm just like, 'Damn'."

While Parks remains humble when speaking of his place on the Duke team, Krzyzewski is excited about his rapid de-

"Cherokee is ready to play in our sys­tem," says Krzyzewski. "He'll be a key the whole time. He may not score all the time, but if he can come in and play good post defense and block some shots, then that's great."

Duke basketball enters this season car­rying lofty expectations after last spring's triumph in Indianapolis. But it is readily apparent from their early-season efforts that Parks and Meek have made success­ful transitions into the program, a signifi­cant task for a couple of 18-year-olds.

Each did so in his own way. Meek with

an optimistic outlook on an unfortunate situation with his injury, and Parks by regarding his baptism into college basket­ball as a gradual learning experience rather than a "I have to be an immediate star on this team" mentality.

"As far as this year is concerned, Erik and I are just going to go out there and try to complement Christian," says Parks. "Whatever he wants us to to, hell tell us."

It is fer sure, dude, uh, definite that Parks and Meek will both play significant roles on the talent-rich Duke team, even though they may have to trade their san­dals for heavier footwear this winter.

"They are certainly not that stereotype that West Coast kids don't work hard or they're not tough," says Krzyzewski. "They've both been the best."

PAGE 10 / THE CHRONICLE ACC BASKETBALL PREVIEW FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 22, 1991

Loss of point guards to give the ACC a down year Last Friday, I was watching basketball practice in I V I r i r C S d C l C S

Cameron when I slowly drifted off to sleep. i^^*ww You see, it had been a long week as my preparations for

the 1991-92 college basketball season were in full swing. I established my television schedule (an average of 14.3

games per week), read all 71 preview magazines and memorized all 10 teams in the Western Athletic Confer­ence.

As I slept, oblivious to the Thomas Hill dunkfest below me, I drifted off into a terrifying nightmare . . .

I was on the set of the popular television game show Jeopardy as the middle contestant between Dick Vitale and Billy Packer.

Double jeopardy had just concluded and I held the huge total of $15,000 while Vitale could muster only $2,000 and Billy had an embarassing $500.

The category for final jeopardy was "College Basket­ball," so I confidently wagered all my cash.

My optimism didn't waver when I saw the question, "Name just one ofthe top three conferences in the nation."

"How easy," I thought. "I'm in one." I quickly wrote down "Atlantic Coast Conference" and tried to ignore the eternally obnoxious background music.

When the music ended, the haughty and egotisitcal host, Alex Trebek, asked me to reveal my answer.

With a big smile, I uncovered my choice, knowing fame and fortune were seconds away.

My happiness quickly turned to horror when Alex said, "I'm sorry. In years past the ACC has been the best, but this year it's not even in the top three."

Covered with a cold sweat, I awoke to see Coach K standing over me, telling me I wasn't very s p e c i a l . . .

I thought about what I had dreamed. Was it possible that the ACC was no longer the cream of the conference crop?

The more I contemplated my realization, the more I realized tha t with the exception of Duke, which is cer­tainly the best team in the country at this time, the ACC lacks the depth, talent and experience to be called the best.

"What about the four straight and nine-of-10 trips to the Final Four?" people will scream.

I certainly don't deny the recent superiority of the conference, but the fact remains tha t this year will be a

In years past the ACC has been the best, but this year it's not even in the top three. mmmmmmmam^mmm^mmmmmmmmmmmwmmmtmmm

down one. It is true that last year, six (seven if Florida State is

included) ACC teams went to "the big dance," the NCAA tournament, but only two stayed past the second round.

The results this year will not even match that perfor­mance.

What has caused the fall? For starters, the point guard position. More than just a player, the point guard is the glue that holds a team together. He must have brains, experience, court vision and the ability to score.

Last year the ACC had the finest collection of point guards ever assembled, but graduation and injury have taken their toll. Now the most important position on the floor is a question mark.

Gone are Chris Corchiani, Kenny Anderson, John Crotty and King Rice. Wake Forest's promising Randolph Childress is injured and Maryland's Walt Williams is a good bet to be. Florida State's Charlie Ward is on the football team and Clemson, well, does it even matter? Only Duke's Bobby Hurley is a sure thing.

It should be noted that North Carolina, Georgia Tech and Virginia all have outstanding young talent to fill the hole, but youth isn't always served immediately.

Look for ACC teams to have a problem with leadership and maturi ty from the point guard spot.

Another reason for the fall is a comparitive lack of talent. After graduationg a strong 1990 class, the ACC, again with the noted exception of Duke, has few marquee players to offer.

Only Virginia's Bryant Stith, Wake Forest's Rodney Rodgers and Walt Williams are candidates for national honors.

The transfers of Clifford Rozier and Billy McCaffrey

and the injuries to Childress and Bryant Feggins of N.C. State didn't help either.

Again, the ACC boasts a fine recruiting class, but even it seems meager in comparison to the bounty of the Big Ten.

So who can stand up to the ACC this year? Who dares claim the crown as the best conference in the country?

For one, the Big East, which may now have the best point guards around, led by Chris Smith of Connecticut and Jason Buchanan of St. John's.

The Big East is solid at the top with Seton Hall, St. John's and Connecticut having good shots at the Final Four. The Big East also boasts depth, which will be manifested in a second straight whipping ofthe ACC in the annual ACC-Big East Challenge.

Believe it or not, the Southeastern Conference may be superior to the ACC. With the addition of Arkansas (Todd Day, Lee Mayberry and Oliver Miller are all back) and Kentucky's resurrection from probation, the SEC is on the rise.

Throw in individual standouts Shaquille O'Neal of LSU and Allan Houston (maybe the best pure shooter in America) of Tennessee with the depth of Alabama, and you have at least five tournament locks.

People will point to the SEC's lack of recent tournament success, but if basketball went on past history alone, why keep playing?

The Big Ten also will challenge the ACC. Indiana and Ohio State are top-five teams, while Iowa is everybody's dark horse. Don't forget about Michigan and the best freshman class ever (take note, Tar Heel fans).

Is that all? Not really. Even the Big Eight (Kansas and Oklahoma State with Byron Houston) and the Pac-10 (UCLA's talent and Arizona's strength) can make a case for equality with the ACC.

What is the moral of his column? Don't fall asleep? Don't play Jeopardy? Don't take candy from strangers?

No. The point is that before boasting about the ACC, take a

look around. There is a lot of great, and even better, basketball being played outside Tobacco Road.

Enjoy it. It will give the ACC something to shoot for. Marc Sacks is a Trinity junior, assistant sports editor of

Sustained excellence 1991-92 team more talented than championship squad

By BRIAN KAUFMAN What makes this year's men's basket­

ball team different than the 1990-91 Blue Devils?

Does it have more players? — No. Does it play a different style o5 basket­

ball? — No. Does it have better hairstyling? — No. Is it more talented? — Yes! More talented than the team that posted

a 32-7 record and won the regular season Atlantic Coast Conference title? More tal­ented than the team that reached the Fi­nal Four for the fifth time in six years and beat UNLV, the team that was unbeat­able? And more talented than the team that beat Kansas for Duke's first-ever na­tional championship?

How can this be? Easy. • The team returns four starters and

THE CHRONICLE'S ACC PREDICTIONS

DUKE North Carolina Wake Forest Georgia Tech Virginia Florida State N.C. State Maryland Clemson

seven of last year's top nine players. • The Blue Devils add freshmen Chero­

kee Parks, Erik Meek and redshirt fresh­man Kenny Blakeney to an already out­standing lineup.

• Every returning Duke player improved over the summer by competing in events such as the Pan American Games, U.S. Olympic Festival, Junior World Champi­onships and World University Games.

"Every player that came back, came back better," said 12th-year head coach Mike Krzyzewski. "It's not just Christian Laettner, it's Marty Clark and Christian Ast and Kenny Blakeney... All our guys played this summer. They made a commit­ment. To me that's a message to them­selves and everybody else that they want to be good again.

"This team is more talented early and is playing together better early than last year's team. The key is can we keep doing that."

"We're better this season because we're more athletic," said senior forward Brian Davis. "We're a lot tougher, and we're not going to have to go through a lot of changes. We have a lot of experience on the team and a lot of players who want to play well. We're excited about our season and I think well do very well."

While the Duke team is both talented and deep, the success of the team will revolve around the play of Christian Laettner and Bobby Hurley. Laettner, a senior All-America forward, averaged 19.8 points and 8.7 rebounds per game last season and is considered one of the two best players in the country this season (LSU center Shaquille O'Neal is the other). Hurley, a junior point guard, is a pre­

season All-American and currently on track to break the NCAA all-time assist record.

"Our two key guys are Bobby and Chris­tian because of their positions and how good they are," said Krzyzewski. "There won't be any people who we play against who are going to be any better than them. So we have to start with them and worry about how everyone else fits into the lineup."

As good as Laettner was last season, he should be even better this season. Laettner starred on the United States National Team over the summer in the Pan-Am Games, leading the U.S. to the bronze medal. Laettner enters this season in the best shape of his career, and could become Duke's all-time leading rebounder and scorer with a strong season.

"Why should Laettner play in the Pan AIDS?" asked Krzyzewski. "He did it be­cause he wanted to get better, and he did. He's really worked hard at becoming a better player."

Hurley averaged 11.3 points per game last season and led Duke with 76 three-point shots made. He was also named MVP ofthe NCAA Midwest Regional and earned All-Final Four honors. Hurley, who played in the World University Games over the summer, should lead Duke in minutes played for the third straight sea­son barring injury.

Joining Laettner and Hurley in the start­ing lineup will be Thomas and Grant Hill. Both played with Laettner on the U.S. National Team over the summer and add versatility to the Duke lineup. Both can play multiple positions on the court, and can score both from the perimeter and on drives to the basket. Thomas, a junior,

MARK WASMER/THE CHRONICLE

Grant Hill averaged 11.5 ppg while shooting 55 per­cent from the field last season. Grant aver­aged 11.2 ppg and was named first-team freshman All-American.

"Playing on the national team helped me a lot," said Grant Hill. "Playing with so many great players was definitely a confi­dence booster for me. The experience was great and I hope to carry over what I learned to our team."

"Playing on the national team made Grant aware that he can truly be an excep­tional player," said Krzyzewski. "But he has to come committed every day, not to just working hard, but to being that excep­tional. I think he's doing that.

Duke

"Thomas just keeps getting better. Tho­mas has been great in practice and is a great competitor."

Both Hills will need to shoot well from the perimeter this season. With the gradu­ation of Greg Koubek and Bill McCaffrey's decision to transfer to Vanderbilt, Duke lost two of its top three three-point shoot­ers. Unfortunately for Duke, Thomas may miss the beginning few weeks of the sea­son with an ankle sprain.

Rounding out the start ing lineup is Davis. Davis, a co-captain with Laettner, averaged 7.6 ppg as a junior and is an outstanding defender. Davis sparked Duke to its upset over UNLV with 15 points and is a hard-nosed player and a vocal leader on the court. In the offseason, he has worked hard to expand his shooting range and finishing ability on drives to the basket.

The addition of 6-11 Parks and 6-10 Meek has had an important impact on the Blue Devils. While Duke will continue to play an aggressive up-tempo game based on the team's athleticism, the size of the freshmen will give the Blue Devils a differ­ent look to put on the court.

"The [freshmen] bring excitement to the team," said Hurley. "Cherokee being as athletic as he is, for a guy his size, really helps our offense."

Parks will make an immediate impact by giving Duke a second inside option when paired with Laettner. Meek, who will not see as much playing time as Parks, will be counted on to play a supporting role around the basket.

"We're bigger because of the freshmen, but we're not setting it up for our freshmen to change our entire system," Krzyzewski said. "Our system is set up for quickness, so we may press more. I think the team will score more, and we're going to try to push the ball down the floor quicker to take advantage of Bobby Hurley's skills.

From page 12 We can have a very athletic lineup on the floor.

"We have to be able to adjust when we have bigness in the game because we can be a good team that way too. We will have changed gears so to speak. We can show a number of different looks because of the two freshmen."

Sophomores Tony Lang and Marty Clark will play important roles for Duke coming off the bench. Lang, who started eight games as a freshman and averaged 4.3 ppg, can play on the perimeter for Duke or closer to the basket. Like Thomas Hill, Lang will miss the team's opening games with an ankle sprain. Clark, who saw limited playing time as a freshman, will be part of the Blue Devils' regular rotation this season and should be the first guard to come off the bench.

"Marty is doing real ly well," said Krzyzewski. "I've seen Marty in the last week get a lot better. He's using his re­sources around him to be better and not just fighting it alone. No matter how tal­ented you are, that 's one of key things to becoming a good player."

Blakeney, sophomore Christian Ast and senior walk-on Ron Burt round out the Duke lineup. Blakeney is still less than 100 percent healthy after having under­gone knee surgery in the spring. At full strength, Blakeney could be a major con­tributor to the Duke lineup. However, the injury has sapped his agility and he will probably see only limited action until he fully rehabilitates his knee. While Ast has improved over the offseason and played for the German national team over the sum­mer, he has not yet earned a spot in Duke's main rotation.

Even though Burt should see only lim­ited action during the season, he has been an important addition to the team because of what he can do in practice and when

MARK WASMER/THE CHRONICLE

Junior point guard Bobby Hurley led Duke with 289 assists last season and is on track to set an NCAA record for career assists. called on in a specific game situation.

While talent alone does not breed suc­cess, talent, hard work and determination does.

Despite the distractions resulting from winning the national championship, the Duke team has remained focused on the upcoming season and maintained its de­sire to win, satisfying Krzyzewski's con­cerns.

"I think the players have done a really good job [ s t ay ing focused]," sa id Krzyzewski. "They've come back in better condition and from the practices they've been very hungry and they're ready to play. What I'm concerned about is that we don't become arrogant or satisfied or ex­pect to win."

While Duke has garnered the top-rank­ing in most preseason polls and there is a

great deal of talk about a second-straight national title, the team is not feeling pres­sure to repeat. The pressure the team faces is with its time. With everyone in the country literally wanting a piece of Duke basketball, the players need to stay fo­cused on playing basketball, even though the constant public attention is part of being in the national spotlight.

"The one way that pressure does enter into our season is with t ime," said Krzyzewski. "There are so many demands on our time that we have to be careful that we don't take time away from focusing and concentrating on our own team.

"There's no pressure on us to repeat. It's too early to start making that one of our goals. Our goal right now is to play hard and have fun. Then come March maybe that will be a nice goal to have."

Confessions of a media slut: a guide for every Cameron Crazy

Hi, my name is Matt H. and I'm a media slut. There, I've said it. It's off my chest.

In coming to grips with this realization about myself, I had to confront several important notions. First and foremost was the question of what exactly is a media slut. After all, they take all forms, shapes, sizes and the like.

I kind of knew, regardless of official definitions, tha t I was on the fast track to being a media slut at the first home foot­ball game last season. I think the person with the television camera and microphone knew it too, after I approached her and asked if she needed a good interview. My accusations of widespread payoffs and ste­roid use on the Virginia team, far-fetched before the contest, actually appeared jus­tified as the Wahoos walloped the Blue Devils 59-0.

If you have likewise gone up to a re­porter and asked to be interviewed, there is a good chance you are a media slut, even if your allegations appear to be right on the money. Double your media slut points if this occurs at Wallace Wade Stadium.

Think about it. How hard is it to be a media slut at a Duke football game? No offense, but Notre Dame we ain't. The athletic department couldn't arrange an offical television contract with Cable 13, much less NBC. It's hard to ham it up for television cameras when there aren't any. That is not the case with Duke basketball. With 15 nationally televised games, there are plenty of opportunities to be a media slut for anyone who wants to be, especially now since I am officially hanging up my curly rainbow wig.

As a reformed media slut, however, I don't recommend this path to anyone. True, there is much glory to be found in the vocation, as one day you could wind up wearing a basket on your head (akin to a crown) or being the guy on professional golf telecasts who always shouts, "You're the man," whenever someone hits a tee shot. You could even be the person who holds up the "John 3:16" sign at every major sporting event in this country. True, you have to pay your own way, but the side benefits of prime television time, good seats and a personal relationship with a cel­ebrated sports figure more than cover the monetary value of an airline ticket.

Alas, not all media sluts wind up in such high profile positions. Some actually fail in their pursuits and are driven out of the business by more successful sluts. It's just another microcosm of the capitalist sys­tem.

Take a friend of mind. I'll call him *X' since I really don't have any friends and must resort to inventing one letter names.

In any case, 'X' is a media slut wannabe. When pictures are taken, he is the person whose arm is barely visible on one side. When a television camera zooms in on the crowd in Cameron, he jus t barely misses

Matt Haies the eye of the lens. The news reporter decides he has enough quotes just when he makes it to 'X.' It is a credit to 'X' that he is not a drivelling fool as a result.

I was the person next to *X' who got interviewed, made it on television and was splashed on the front cover of a newspa­per. Mind you, these are not things of which I am especially proud. In retrospect, I would have switched places with 'X' be­fore you could say "Francesa."

Before you make the decision to be a media slut, give it some serious thought.

For every time NBC zooms in on you when you have a Close-Up smile, there will be an occasion when the camera catches you picking your teeth.

For every gem of a quote, there are at least a dozen moronic references you will wish you had never uttered. Trust me on this one.

And for every J. Crew pose, there are an infinite number of embarassing positions that a photograph can capture. My favor­ite is the person on The Herald-Sun's cham-pionship commemorative issue. This glossy, hangingin every corner of Cameron, shows one Duke student in the classic, "Yes, I just had hot wax poured down my throat and red ants dropped down my pants simultaneously," pose. Not a pretty sight.

And the main thing is, once you're a media slut, you're always a media slut. You cannot for one second forget that you once had a problem. Every tube of face paint becomes a forbidden fruit. Every microphone is out to get you. Every televi­sion camera is evil. It will stay with you the rest of your life. I live with it every day.

If there is anything that the pain that I've endured has taught me it is that being a good fan has nothing to do with indi­vidual glory. There are no official statistics kept on the number of times that your friends at home see you on ESPN. Like­wise, there are no stats for "most pimples as a result of applying blue paint to one's face" or "most body hair seared off by running too close to a giant bonfire." There is nothing wrong with these practices by themselves (in fact, they can be quite hu­morous), but when done for the sole pur­pose of glorification in the media, they begin to lose whatever charm they may have.

The only statistic about fan involvement that matters is Duke's home record, which happened to be pretty good last season. That involvement is the result of 9,314 fans doing whatever it takes for their team to win.

Collective glory beats the individual variety any day.

Matt Haies is a Trinity sophomore, as­sistant sports editor of The Chronicle, and a self-confessed media slut.

Cameron Crazies do not show championship form

With a preseason number-one ranking and most of its players returning from last year's national championship season, the Duke basketball program under coach Mike Krzyzewski is clearly at its peak. The same thing cannot be said, however, for the Blue Devil fans. The 'Sixth Man' seems to be past his prime.

Although the national reputation ofthe Duke basketball fans as the best in the country is well deserved, the Cameron Crazies seem to have lost some creativity recently by copying the cheers of other teams.

The best example of this lack of ingenu­ity last season was the "whoosh" cheer. Started by the band and popularized a t Cameron by many unknowing freshmen, the "whoosh" cheer attempts to simulate a swishing sound when a Duke player makes a free throw. The Cameron Crazies raise their hands in the air and as the ball goes throw the hoop, they drop their hands and yell, "Whoosh."

This is an N.C. State cheer, folks. It is ironic that Duke fans have copied a cheer from a school which they taunt with cheers like, "If you can't go to college go to State, and if you can't go to State, go to jail."

I prefer this cheer: "If you don't know how to cheer, go to State (or Carolina)." It's not jus t State's cheer either, for many other schools do it, too.

Can't Duke students with their higher SAT scores and IQ's think of something creative for this season? Obviously not. Several bandmembers started doing the Tomahawk Chop' for freshman center Cherokee Parks, whose father is of Native American descent. Besides being offen­sive, this cheer is down right stupid. It is the ugly stepchild of a cheer popularized by the Atlanta Braves, but which origi­nated with the Florida State football fans.

This is not what the concept ofthe 'Sixth Man' is all about. It's about originality and creativity unmatched by any other fans in college basketball. This group of Dukies needs to regain the creative mindset of years past.

During the 1970s and 1980s, the Duke fans were unmatched in their antics. They threw potatoes at 5-7 N.C. State guard Spud Webb and hurled records and head­phones a t Wolfpack forward C h r i s Washburn, who was caught stealing a ste­reo. They even picked on Duke graduate Lefty Driesell, wearing skull caps to mock the bald head of the former Maryland coach.

The Cameron Crazies knew no limits back in the glory days. Many people said the Duke fans went too far when they sported condoms and threw women's un­derwear at Maryland forward Herman Veal, who was accused of raping a Terra­pin co-ed. In response to the public back­lash over the Veal incident, the 'Sixth Man' rose to the occasion at the next home game against North Carolina. The fans wore aluminum halos, used chants like "Please Miss" on free throws and "We beg to differ" with the officials, and presented Tar Heel coach Dean Smith with flowers.

In recent years, the 'Sixth Man' has shown flashes of greatness. Two years ago the students threw sneakers at N.C. State, who went on probation for selling compli­mentary shoes, and they hurled twinkies at a recently slimmed-down Georgia Tech guard Dennis Scott.

The importance of ingenious fan sup­port should not be lost on those Dukies who cheered during games in Cameron last season. It is far from coincidental tha t the team was 16-0 in front of their home fans, for at times last season the Duke fans acted like the 'Sixth Man' of old.

Although Christian Laettner's 29 points might have helped, the fans took LSU's super center Shaquille O'Neal out of the

Brad Snyder game last season with cheers like "Shaq can't dunk." When he picked up his fourth foul, they yelled,"One, two, three, four, Shaq can't play this game no more." In addition to the LSU game, the fans did a great job against North Carolina. Tar Heel forward Pat Sullivan probably has emo­tional scars from the famous Cameron chant, "Oh no, not Sullivan," every time he steps on the floor.

Coack K, however, does not recommend that the fans single out a specific player or throw things on the court.

"I don't want anything thrown on the court, that 's not right. The other thing is when you single out a player, I'm telling you, players have great games against us when you single them out. It's like, bet on it tha t this guy's going to have a great game," said Coach K, who remembers that Scott lit up Duke for 40 points in the "twinkie" game and Vekl led Maryland to victory after being pelted with women's underwear.

"That's part ofit, that 's recognizing as a 'sixth man' that you don't want to do that," said coach Krzyzewski. "I love the stu­dents, and I love the atmosphere and the creativity. Those are just two examples of things that hur t us."

With the warnings of Coack K in mind, the Duke fans should get their creative juices flowing for the upcoming season. Cameron is the toughest place to play in the country when the 'Sixth Man' is at his best. Although the home schedule this year pales in comparison to last year's, the team will come ready to play and Coach K expects the fans to come ready to cheer at every game.

"Your 'sixth man' only has to play about 15 or 16 real good games, while we have to play more than that, so they should have less lulls," Coach K said. "Don't let us lose here, make sure we win."

Getting up for this season should not be difficult. After all, we have the ultimate bragging rights because we are the na­tional champions. Maybe our motto should be 'As obnoxious as we wanna be.' Who knows? Jus t forget about the "whoosh" cheer and the tomahawk chop,' so this group of Duke fans can orchestrate the resurgence ofthe real 'Sixth Man'.

Coaching of Dean Smith should keep UNC in top 20 By CHRIS HURTGEN

Quick trivia quiz: Who invented the game of basket­ball?

Hold your tongue before you shout out "Naismith" because it sure as heck wasn't him. Alright, some Yankee up in Massachusetts might have fooled around with a peach basket years ago, but at least in this state, it's clear that basketball was born on a warm, fall afternoon in 1960 in Chapel Hill when Dean Smith walked into cozy Carmichael Auditorium and ran his first practice as the Tar Heels' head coach.

Skeptical? Why? There's tons of evidence.

I'm really worried about our team defensively.

UNC head coach Dean Smith

When the Carolina season opens Nov. 24 at home against The Citadel, Smith will begin his 31st season at the helm ofthe winningest program in basketball history (1,513 victories). His 717 career wins place him above all other active Division I coaches. Smith has amassed 47 NCAA tournament victories (tied for first with UCLA's John Wooden) and has guided Carolina to 21 straight 20-win seasons, 10 final fours and a national championship. He has a 21,572 seat arena named after him and he coached Michael Jordan. What more do you need to know? Why belabor the obvious?

And in case you're wondering, the answer is, "No," he's not worried about being up-staged by the coach eight miles up the road with the funny name. Dean Smith has seen it all.

Which is why the 1991-92 Tar Heel basketball squad, ranked seventh in the National Collegiate Sportswriters Poll, will probably live up to the UNC tradition despite the coaching challenges it presents.

Carolina's 1990-91 season, one of the program's best ever, was overshadowed by Duke's national champion­ship run. The Tar Heels finished the year 29-6,10-4 in the

Atlantic Coast Conference. They won the ACC crown and advanced to the final four with a team that was hardly Smith's best ever. But UNC had a solid nucleus of three seniors, Rick Fox, Pete Chilcutt and King Rice, which played almost all ofthe team's minutes down the stretch. That group is gone now, leaving a young, relatively inexperienced team behind.

Hubert Davis is the squad's lone senior, but the 6-4 shooting guard is a probable first-team All-ACC pick.

"There's more to his game than shooting the basket­ball," Smith said. "He's improved his passing, his judg­ment ... and I hope he continues to improve to where he could be a point guard some day."

Tar Heel faithful hope that day is soon because the point guard slot may prove a weakness in the Carolina offense. Sophomore Derrick Phelps comes off a summer of knee rehabilitation and, by all early reports, is healthy. Should Phelps go down, however, Carolina is left with Scott Cherry, the last man off a deep bench in 1990, and the team's lone freshman, Garner's Donald Williams.

Carolina has a legitimate power forward in 6-7 junior George Lynch, who averaged 12.5 points-per-game and 7.4 rebounds in 1990-91. Lynch relished the thought of playing on the perimeter this season but that hope ended when a disgruntled Cliff Rozier, a probable starter, trans­ferred to Louisville.

"I don't think there's any pressure on me [with Rozier gone]," Lynch said. "Obviously, I was the starting power forward. It was there for me and I did a great job of adjusting [to the role]."

Henrik Rodl, a 6-7 guard, will probably join Phelps, Davis and Lynch in the starting line-up. Rodl, the Ger­man native who led Chapel Hill High School to the 1987 state championship, missed practice and preseason exhi­bitions to play with the German National Team in Eu­rope. Rodl is a capable ball-handler who may also see action at the point.

The center spot is a three-way choice between three seven-footers: Eric Montross, Kevin Salvadori and Matt Wenstrom.

"There's quite a battle going on there," Smith said. "They're great friends but ... somedays one looks much better, other days, another. I don't know how much, if at all, we'll play two of them [together]."

Smith's biggest preseason concern, however, isn't "who's going to play where," but his squad's ability to play the Carolina trapping, pressure defense.

"I'm really worried about our team defensively," Smith said. "They aren't a typical Carolina defensive team because we are so inexperienced, and the experienced teams are usually better defensively."

But the Tar Heels aren't lacking experience in the coaching department — that's why, despite the chal­lenges Carolina faces in 1991-92, Smith's team will prob­ably win another 20 games, remain a top-20 team all year and make another strong showing in postseason play. Because the UNC basketball machine, far from broken, needs but a little fine-tuning. And who better to fix a machine than the man who invented it?

Wake Forest must replace Childress to contend in ACC By CASEY ZIMMER

In all likelihood the most influential member ofthe 1991-92 Wake Forest bas­ketball team will not be all-stud Rodney Rogers. The key to Wake's season probably won't even be wearing a uniform.

You see, on June 24, shooting guard Randolph Childress was playing some pick­up ball when he put a little too much pressure on his left knee. The result, a torn anterior cruciate ligament.

In plain English, that means he cannot play hoops for nine to 12 months, essen­tially keeping him off the court for the season. In one quick slice towards the basket, Childress dramatically cut Wake's chances for a dream season.

Childress' recovery has so far been deemed "amazing" by some doctors, and head coach Dave Odom hopes to have him back on the court before the season ends. A final decision will be made Jan. 1.

Coming off the bench as a freshman, Childress was third in scoring (14.0), sec­ond in assists (85) and led the team in three-point shots (64). Since he figured to start at shooting guard, the Demon Dea­cons now have three glaring weaknesses. The loss of Childress adds perimeter shoot­ing to a wanted list that already includes depth and the lack of a true center.

Still, the team that made its first NCAA Tournament appearance since 1984 and had its first winning season since 1985, returns four solid starters. They include Atlantic Coast Conference Rookie of the Year Rodney Rogers and veterans Chris King, Derrick McQueen and Anthony Tucker.

"Obviously the Wake Forest basketball team this year will have more experience, a greater level of ability ... than we have been able to have over the last eight to 10 years," said Odom.

Rogers returns for a second campaign in

which he will try to avoid the dreaded "sophomore jinx." As a freshman, Rogers led the team in scoring (16.3), rebounds (7.9), steals (53) and shooting percentage (57 percent). He is consistently mentioned in the same breath as the best power forwards in the country and was the spark which finally ignited a talented Wake For­est team to 19 wins and an NCAA Tourna­ment invitation.

But Odom admits Rogers still needs to improve in some areas.

"He must really improve in his decision­making," said Odom. "And he is aware of that."

Odom also cited free-throw shooting, defense and outside shooting as areas that Rogers has worked on and made signifi­cant steps in this summer.

One problem is that Rogers might have to play out of position. Senior Phil Medlin's playing time eroded over the course ofthe season like a beach during a hurricane. This leaves the 6-7 Rogers or 6-8 Chris King to do the job down low.

After showing flashes of brilliance throughout his career, King, according to some, had an off year last year. For the first time in his career, he didn't lead the Deacs in scoring, rebounding or shooting percentage. Those honors went to Rogers while King quietly improved his defense and took most of the tough defensive as­signments.

Because of the improvements, Odom thought he deserved more recognition as an All-ACC candidate. King finished strong, capping off the season with an impressive 29^point outing in a NCAA Tournament loss to Alabama.

The man bringing the ball up the court will again be senior Derrick McQueen. After a sophomore season plagued by inju­ries, McQueen rebounded with a more consistent junior campaign. He turned the

ball over less per game than any other ACC point guard last season and now ranks fifth in Wake Forest's history in career assists.

However, McQueen must improve in the scoring column with the loss of Childress. He is a minimal offensive threat, and his sophomore year he broke an ACC record for worst three-point shooting percentage for 3 season (19.6 percent).

Joining Rogers, King and McQueen in the starting five will be 6-8 senior Anthony Tucker. And will the REAL Anthony Tucker please stand up? Tucker remains probably the biggest basketball enigma in the ACC. He played the giant-killer at times last season, dominating in a home victory over eventual national champion Duke by scoring 31 points and grabbing 11 rebounds.

Yet, in the last game of the season, which could have propelled Wake to the Sweet 16, Tucker was an invisible 0-3 from the field.

Tucker's shooting and ballhandling re­main questionable this season, but he will still occupy the swing forward position. The Anthony Tucker who shows up this year could either keep the Demon Deacons down or push them over the top into the upper echelon of college basketball.

Sophomore Marc Blucas, junior David Rasmussen and freshman Cordell Llewellyn will compete for the starting nod at shooting guard, while sophomore Robert Doggett willback up McQueen at point guard.

Sophomore Trelonnie Owens, a 6-8 for­ward, will come off the bench to help down in the paint. Owens had a solid freshman year and will add a solid backup to an already potent frontline.

But the key positions, despite the talent ofthe Deacon forwards, are on the perim­eter.

"Robert Doggett is one ofthe key players on this team," said Odom, "because I know that Derrick McQueen is most effective when he is well rested. We were able to do that last year [en route to a 19-11 record]. Losing [Robertj Siler and Randolph [Childress] has really caused us some prob­lems."

They are problems that will make or break the big hopes for the upcoming sea­son.

All-Americans help Tech deal with loss of Anderson By TOM ENSTICE

With his prematurely gray hair, bright yellow club ties and distinct Bronx accent, you probably wouldn't have trouble notic­ing Georgia Tech head coach Bobby Cremins if he suddenly emerged out ofthe shadows. But can you say the same thing about his basketball team?

With a massive front line, two incoming high school Ail-Americans and a budding superstar in tow, the Yellow Jackets enter the 1991-92 season without the presence of wizardly point guard Kenny Anderson looming above the program. After dazzling the basketball world in -only two college seasons with his on court magic, Anderson has now disappeared to the NBA's New Jersey Nets.

The day that Anderson would leave had alw.ys been acknowledged by many to be sooner rather than later, and Cremins was prepared to replace the Yellow Jackets ' foundation. Last year his team was at a loss at the small forward position with the early departure of Dennis Scott to the pros, and Cremins did not want to endure a similar mistake this year.

"We wanted to protect ourselves in case Kenny Anderson decided to go to the NBA," he said. "We wanted to sign a point guard we thought could come in and start and we feel we've done that in getting Travis Best."

Best, who scored 81 points during a legendary game his senior year of high school, is a left-handed point guard with passing and ball handling skills not too far removed from tha t of Anderson. Don't think, however, tha t Cremins merely re­cruited a clone. Senior Jon Barry, who will team up with Best to form Tech's starting backcourt, has already noticed differences between Anderson and Best.

"[Best] likes to kick the ball up a little earlier than Kenny did on the break rather than hold on to it," Barry said.

"He thinks pass before score whereas I think last year Kenny thought score before pass. That's going to help me because I'll always be ready for him to be thinking pass rather than score."

If Barry can solidify the shooting guard posi t ion and Best can se t t le in as Anderson's successor, the potential for the Yellow Jackets is limitless for they possess one ofthe country's best front lines.

Junior Malcom Mackey anchors the Yel­low Jacket frontcourt and is poised to rank among the best power forwards in the nation.

As a freshman Mackey led Tech in re­bounding and was named third-team fresh­man All- America by Basketball Times. Last season, after averaging 15.9 points and 10.7 rebounds per game and placing third in the Atlantic Coast Conference in field goal percentage, Mackey was named sec­ond team All-ACC.

Currently, he is closing in on the 1000-point mark and stands second on the Geor­gia Tech career blocked shot list behind current Detroit Piston John Salley.

With such credentials, Mackey might be wondering why he hasn't received wider recognition, and then again maybe he doesn't.

"I felt like I had a good freshman year but I was overshadowed by Kenny and people hardly even noticed," he said. "Then I came back the next year and did well. I think I had a pretty decent sophomore year."

It is a certainty that with Anderson's departure, Mackey's immense talents will become more visible to the basketball pub­lic. However, he feels that his teammates will also be noticed for their overlooked play.

"I think there's a lot of hidden talent on this team tha t people haven't seen because they have been so overshadowed by Kenny,

[Ivano] Newbill, Jon and Matt [Geiger]," Mackey said.

Geiger, a senior who added 17 pounds to his 7-1 frame, is ready to make good on all ofthe expectations that accompanied him two years ago when he transferred to Tech from Auburn. Last season Geiger was plagued by injury, and will try to bring more consistency to his game this year after experiencing a year in the ACC.

The 6-10 Newbill is only a sophomore, and he only began playing basketball at age 16. Last year he started five games at center in place of the injured Geiger, but this year he is expected to see some time at the power forward position.

Rounding out the Yellow Jackets' start­ing frontline will be freshman James Forrest, a player some have predicted to become the ACC newcomer of the year. Forrest, last year's Georgia Prep Player of the Year, has been lost amid the hoopla surrounding Best's unenviable task of re­placing Anderson. Compared favorably to the Charlotte Hornets' Larry Johnson, the 6-7,235-pound Forrest will utilize his fine perimeter skills for the Yellow Jackets and try to make the adjustment to small for­ward from power forward.

Georgia Tech might have a slight depth problem and will probably only go about eight players deep. Joining either Geiger or Newbill on the Yellow Jackets' bench will be Bryan Hill and Darryl Barnes.

Hill, a 6-4 junior, moves into the sixth man spot a t guard. Barnes, a 6-9 forward and former top-50 high school prospect, returns to the Tech lineup after being sidelined most of last year with a form of tendonitis called "jumper's knee."

Having such a solid mix of players that includes experience as well as talent, Cremins may finally be able to solidify a coaching reputation that has come into doubt at times. Cremins has been branded

by some as a great recruiter who lacks the coaching skills to match, but last year he guided a woefully inexperienced squad to the NCAA Tournament after it had en­dured what the computerized New York Times-Sagarin Index deemed the nation's fifth toughest schedule.

Tech will play a solid non-conference schedule again this year that includes games in December against Villanova, Kentucky, and Georgia. This stretch of games will most likely decide whether his Yellow Jackets can be national contend­ers. The highly touted freshmen need to prove that they can carry over their suc­cessful exploits from the high school ranks while the older players like Mackey, Barry and Geiger will have to step up as the leaders of the team. But will they?

Only the shadow knows.

Virginia's season rides on back of Bryant Stith By BARRY SVRLUGA

At first glance, University of Virginia head coach Jeff Jones has a great deal to be confident about heading into the 1991-92 season. Virginia returns three starters, including one legitimate All-America can­didate, from a team that went 21-12 last year. In addition to this, Jones' recruiting class is the best in the conference and ranks among the top three or four in the nation.

Headlining Virginia's returnees is two-time first team All-ACC forward Bryant Stith. Stith averaged 19.8 points and 6.2 rebounds per game as a junior, leading the Cavaliers in both categories. Stith will not only be relied on to turn in an All-America type season on the court, but his experi­ence and leadership will be very instru­mental in breaking in UVa's talented group of freshmen.

VIRGINIA SPORTS INFORMATION

Bryant Stith

"Bryant is simply our best player," said Jones. "He is a tremendous leader for us and the guy we are going to build around."

Stith, who fell into a shooting slump at the end of last season, took the summer off from competitive basketball. Jones says that the rest has helped Stith prepare himself for a senior campaign that could make him the all-time leading scorer in Virginia history.

"Bryant gives absolutely everything mentally and physically in any kind of competition, and I think it took its toll," said Jones. "We told him to just take some time off and to get away from it for a while, and he has really bounced back."

Also returning to the starting lineup is shooting guard Anthony Oliver. Oliver, who missed nine games last year due to a hand injury and never fully regained his shooting touch, will be relied on to give the Cavaliers a consistent outside threat. His ability to bounce back from the injury is a big variable heading into the season.

Virginia's other returning starter is 6-9, 240 pound center Ted Jeffries. While Jeffries is not a consistent offensive threat, Jones has expressed confidence in both Jeffries' experience and ability.

"Ted has been our starting center the last two years and I really can't imagine a scenario where anyone beats Ted out this season," Jones said. "I think he will be a better offensive player in a number of different areas."

In addition to the three starters, the Cavs expect contributions from 6-7 sopho­more Cornel Parker. Parker filled in dur­ing Oliver's injury last season, and needs to develop an outside shot to assure him­self of quality minutes this year.

Virginia's freshman class of five includes at least three players that should step in and contribute right away. Perhaps the most prominent of these is 6-1 point guard

Cory Alexander. Alexander was a first team All-America selection by both Pa­rade and McDonald's as a senior at Oak Hill Academy in Waynesboro, Va. His con­tributions are especially important given the loss of John Crotty, UVa's gritty point guard and career assist leader who gradu­ated last year. Crotty leaves big shoes to fill, but Alexander's resume suggests that he is ready to take on the challenge of

as the ACC factors other than talent must be figured into the picture. Jones' main concern is melding the overwhelming tal­ent of his five freshmen with the experi­ence of his veteran core.

"We've got some young men with some potential," Jones said, "but getting that to translate into being a unit, being efficient and successful [is] going to take some time."

Jones says that this year differs from

Virginia head coach Jeff Jones

becoming a premier ACC point guard. Alexander is joined by Thomas "Junior"

Burrough and Yuri Barnes, a pair of blue-chip freshmen that could step in immedi­ately and fill the power forward spot va­cated by Kenny Turner and Matt Blundin. The 6-8 Burrough, a high school teammate of Alexander, is a capable scorer who, according to teammate Oliver, is "rising out ofthe pack" in the battle for frontcourt minutes.

"Junior Burrough and Yuri Barnes [are] two big, strong, athletic players ." said Jones. "Junior in particular has a knack for scoring ... I think both of those guys fully expect to come in and find a way to contribute right away."

The Cavaliers' freshman class is rounded out by 6-10 center Chris Alexander, who could see some minutes backing up Jeffries and wingman Jason Williford, who may need to wait a year for significant playing time.

Despite all the apparent positives, Jones is well aware that in a conference as tough

last, when he had an experienced squad that was familiar with the Virginia system and the rigors of ACC play.

"What we've tried to do is just cover the fundamentals and take it one step at a time, not leaving out any steps which last year we were able to do because we had such a veteran team," Jones said.

Jones is also concerned about the strength of Virginia's schedule. The team does not play at home during the month of December. The Cavaliers travel to Ala­bama, New Orleans and Stanford and meet Georgetown in the ACC-Big East Chal­lenge.

"We have to be ready when December rolls around because of our December schedule," Jones says.

Look for Virginia to struggle early as the freshmen learn to fit in with the upper­classmen. Stith will again make a run for ACC Player Of The Year, and he is capable of carrying a team. By season's end, this could be a team that makes second-year coach Jones proud.

Florida State should fit right in as the ACC's new kid in town By BRIAN DOSTER

Ooh, Ooh, everybody's talking trout the new kid in town. The Florida State men's basketball team should adopt this old Eagles tune as its theme song for the program's inaugural year in the Atlantic Coast Conference. Everybody's talking about the Seminoles because they're ex­pected to mean more to the ACC this sea-son than just another pair of conference

points per game, shot 51.9 percent from the field, and grabbed 7.1 rebounds an outing. He scored 31 points while matched up against Syracuse's Billy Owens last season and yanked down 18 rebounds ver­sus Southern Mississippi.

"Now he's bigger, he's stronger, he's shooting the ball with more range and I think it's going to be a great challenge for him to go against the Christian Laettners

Florida State's good and they're going to get even better by being in the ACC.

Duke head coach Mike Krzyzewski

games. When word broke last year that FSU

^vould become the ninth ACC member, everybody was talking about the impact of the Seminole football program. Most ne­glected to ascribe any positives to the addi­tion of Florida State's basketball team to the conference, thinking the Seminoles would be quickly swamped by ACC compe­tition. But last season's Metro Conference champions should hold themselves above water ra ther admirably upon jumping headfirst into the deep end of college bas­ketball this year.

College basketball pundits are expect­ing FSU to finish in the middle of the conference this year and much of that ia due to the Seminoles 6-9 junior forward Doug Edwards, a player who is projected as an All-America and first team All-ACC candidate.

"He's a legitimate, qualified player, and I think he can be an impact player in this league," Florida State head coach Pat Kennedy said.

Last season Edwards averaged 16.4

and the Rodney Rogers," Kennedy said. Kennedy feels that Edwards and junior

point guard Sam Cassell compose a potent combination.

"Sam Cassell is a tremendous point guard," Kennedy said. "Right now in our practice sessions Sam and Douglas have shown us a very qualified one-two punch. The great thing about Douglas is you can post him up or you can bring him out to the three-point line. The thing with Sam is he can penetrate or he can make a three-point shot. Not only are they a one-two guard-forward punch, but they can also both score around the basket and away from the basket."

Cassell, junior college transfer from San Jacinto College, was considered by many to be the best junior college player in the nation last season. He average 25 points, five rebounds and eight assists a game for the 24-3 San Jacinto club.

The Seminoles were more than figura­tively quarterbacked by junior Charlie Ward at the point guard position last year. Ward, a back-up quarterback for the top-

ranked Florida State football team, has yet to announce a decision to come out this year. He must discuss the matter with football coach Bobby Bowden and work around spring football practice.

"My sense is that he's telling people that he really wants to play and if he does it's going to give us a very unique situation because of what he can do," Kennedy said. "He's a good player. He and Sam back there together could give us a lot of versa­tility in things we could do — pressing and type of offense."

Ward was considered to be the spark that ignited the Seminoles' late season charge when he joined the team after foot­ball season.

Junior forward Rodney Dobard, an out­standing defender who led FSU with 47 blocked shots, will play opposite Edwards inside. Dobard averaged 8.5 points and 5.2 rebounds a game last season.

Chuck Graham will be a first-time starter for FSU at shooting guard. He's been de­scribed as having a tremendous vertical leap that makes him a spectacular dunker. Graham led the Seminoles with a 34.6 percent three-point shooting last year.

Edwards, Ward, Dobard and Graham are the only other players on the FSU squad with significant experience and this concerns Kennedy.

"The problem with this year's team, and this isn't crying wolf, is basically we've got eight guys [not counting Ward] that are going to command most of our playing time. Well five of them have never played before and five out of our top eight kids do not have experience at this level."

Andre Reid, a 7-0 sophomore, will be a full-time center for the first time this sea­son and Kennedy feels Reid's performance will be critical for the Seminoles.

"How Andre Reid, our sophomore cen­ter, is going to play night in and night out

in this type of environment and this level of competition we don't know," Kennedy said. "If that kid becomes a 12-point, 10 rebound kid who blocks a few shots and stays out of foul trouble, that could make the difference in the world in our basket­ball season."

The other players in Kennedy's top eight are junior forward Byron Wells and fresh­men Bob Sura at guard, and freshman Ray Donald at forward.

Given all this youth, Kennedy feels that next season will be one of the Seminoles' best, once these players are seasoned by a year in the ACC.

Duke head coach Mike Krzyzewski agrees when talking about the new kids in the ACC.

"Florida State's good and they're going to get even better by being in the ACC," he said.

N.C. State must rebound from loss of Tire and Ice' By MICHAEL ROBBINS

North Carolina State likes the three-point shot. Last season, the Wolfpack led the Atlantic Coast Conference in three point attempts, conversions and percent­age. This year should be no different, but head coach Les Robinson is also placing a premium on one ofthe more fundamental aspects of the game — passing.

"Shooting the ball from that distance, wide open, is not a difficult skill," Robinson said. "[The key] is getting people tha t want to make the pass."

This task may be more difficult than ever for a Wolfpack team crushed by gradu­ation. Gone is the most prolific passer in NCAA history, Chris "Fire" Corchiani, the first player ever to eclipse the 1,000 career assist mark.

And also gone is Rodney "Ice" Monroe, the man who scored on most of Corchiani's assists. Monroe is the Pack's all-time lead­ing scorer and the ACC's number-three point man. Monroe was named the 1991 ACC Player ofthe Year.

"Fire and Ice" were arguably the best backcourt ever to play in the ACC and one ofthe most productive in the nation. They were the two leading scorers on the team, with Monroe knocking down 27 points per game and Corchiani chipping in with a 16.3 average. Going into his second year as State head coach, Robinson recognizes the formidable task before him of trying to play without the accomplished veterans.

"Going into [my first year] I knew how good [Monroe and Corchiani] were," Robinson said. "I realize this year we are going to be hurting a little bit early on in the season. They are going to be missed drastically."

Senior captain Tom Gugliotta will have to pick up the slack. Last year, Gugliotta was second team All-ACC, averaging 15.2

points and a team-high 9.1 rebounds. At 6-10, he is a versatile player who can either play down low or also shoot from the out­side. He shot .398 from behind the three-point line last year, sinking 66 of his shots from behind the arc. But this year, "Gugs" will be asked to do more than score and rebound. With "Fire and Ice" gone, he is now the team leader.

"My role has increased this year from last year," Gugliotta said. "[With Chris

the ball. If they put two or three guys on me, I know there is somebody open."

What those other guys do when they're open is the key question that the Wolfpack will have to answer. The team's other big threat is 6-11 junior center Kevin Thomp­son. Thompson set a Pack single-season field goal percentage record last year when he shot 60.5 percent from the floor, averag­ing 8.6 points and 7.7 rebounds per game. In the last ten games ofthe season, Thomp-

N.C. State forward Tom Gugliotta

and Rodney] I was a role player last year, taking the shots that were there for me and rebounding. This year, I am going to be a little bit more of a conductor, and I'll have a lot more responsibility."

Gugliotta has come a long way since entering State as a 6-7, 205-pound fresh­man. Last summer, he was an alternate on the U.S. Pan American team and was the leading scorer on the ACC all-star team that toured Europe. But with Monroe and Corchiani gone from the Wolfpack and opposing defenses key ing more on Gugliotta, he will have to work even harder at getting open in the halfcourt offense.

"I want [Tom] to develop a more com­plete game, to continue moving without the ball" Robinson said. "Our offense makes you improve moving without the ball."

"We'll do what we have to do to win," Gugliotta said. "I've been working on things to try to make me more mobile once I get

son was especially effective, averaging 11.8 points and 10.1 rebounds. Now, he suppos­edly has a three-point shot in his arsenal as well.

As if it wasn't already enough that the Pack would be playing without Monroe and Corchiani for the first time in four years, the team was further devastated when junior power forward Bryant Feggins tore a ligament in his knee in the second practice ofthe year. Feggins will be out for the entire 1991-92 season. The team will sorely miss his scoring (13.3 points per game) and his presence in the paint.

With Feggins' injury, Thompson and Gugliotta are the only sure things on the State squad. The rest ofthe starting lineup is up for grabs. Most likely to fill one ofthe three spots is sophomore guard Migjen Bakalli. Bakalli was sensational at times as the Pack's sixth man last season. Though he only averaged 5.8 points per game,

Bakalli was a sparkling .477 from behind the three-point line, knocking down 42 trifectas on the season. In State's 114-91 victory over Maryland in Raleigh, he nailed eight straight threes and finished with 27 points on nine of 10 shooting.

The biggest battle will be at the point guard position. Sophomore Adam Fletcher is the only candidate with any collegiate experience, and that is only a total of 35 minutes. But the Wolfpack do have two sensational freshmen that could fill the void left by Corchiani's departure.

At 5-11, Curtis Marshall has the de­meanor and physical skills to be an excel­lent point guard. Marshall was named Nebraska's Mr. Basketball after a standout senior campaign when he averaged 30.5 points and 5.5 assists per game. Lakista McCuller, a 6-3 guard from Georgia, is also extremely talented. McCuller averaged 26.4 points and 6.4 rebounds as a senior in high school and has the versatility to play either guard position.

Two ofthe team's other freshman have impressive credentials as well. Victor Newman was Alabama's Mr. Basketball and the state career scoring champ. He averaged 21.6 points per game, 28.6 his senior year. Like McCuller, Mark Davis, 6-5, 221 pounds, is also a versatile player. Davis averaged 22.8 points and 17.1 re­bounds while playing forward, shooting guard, and point guard his senior year.

If N.C. State has a noticeable strength, it is certainly their versatility. The team is very interchangeable at most of its posi­tions. The keys will be for the Pack to find a starting lineup that works well together and hope its talented freshman don't need long to get their feet wet. While State is still reeling from the loss of Corchiani, Monroe, and Feggins, Gugliotta could lead this team to quite a few ACC upsets.

Terrapins counting on two Williams for improvement By LEWIS KRAUSKOPF

Ask the people up in College Park what the most important name in college bas­ketball is and they'd answer immediately: Williams.

Head coach Gary and All-America can­didate Walt must be the keys if Maryland is going to improve on its seventh-place Atlantic Coast Conference finish of one year ago. The Terrapins were 16-12 over­all and 5-9 in the ACC, highlighted by

effort to increase tempo and stay out of half-court battles.

"We've got a little more quickness this year," said coach Williams. "This year we'll be able to go seven deep."

One of those seven will be 6-8 senior point guard Walt Williams. The versatile Williams comes off an impressive junior campaign, which was shortened 12 games because of a broken leg. A virtual un­known coming out of high school, he ex-

He can play a lot of positions. Hell be our point guard, but we'll use him in a lot of places in the offense.

victories over NCAA tournamnent teams Virginia, Georgia Tech, N.C. State and Southern Cal. Maryland also won the championship at the ECAC Holiday Festi­val at Madison Square Garden.

The team is entering its second of three years of NCAA probation for violations committed by previous head coach Bob Wade. This year will be better, for Mary­land will be back on television as well as be eligible to play in the ACC tournament. Further post-season competition is still off-limits for the Terps.

Coach Williams, entering his third year at Maryland, became the second coach in Maryland history to record winning sea­sons in his first two years at the helm. He will look for further improvement from his squad as he continues the rebuilding pro­cess.

Under Williams, the undersized Terra­pins will run, press and shoot threes in an

ploded onto the scene last season, averag­ing 18.7 points, 5.1 rebounds and 5.4 as­sists per game, grabbing the attention of the nation and the pro scouts.

"[Walt] can play a lot of positions," said coach Williams. "He'll be our point guard, but we'll use him in a lot of places in the offense."

After Williams, the Terrapins are going to need other players to step up if they are going to move into the top half of the ACC. The team will miss the defensive presence of forward Cedric Lewis, who was second in the nation at 5.1 blocks per game, in addition to averaging 12 points and eight rebounds.

Up front, Maryland returns two starters at forward in 6-6 senior Garfield Smith and 6-3 senior Vince Broadnax. Smith, a junior-college transfer, started slowly last season, but averaged 13.1 points per game in the second half of the year, while

Broadnax, despite his height, became the team's defensive stopper. A former walk-on, Broadnax is an inspirational team leader.

At center, the Terps will look to 6-8 junior Evers Burns. Burns, weighing in at 240 pounds, may have to carry the re­bounding load for a relatively small Mary­land squad. 6-10 Chris Kerwin, a transfer from Old Dominion, will be a key reserve.

In the backcourt, the team will miss the three-point shooting of departed Matt Roe. Along with Williams, who will play any­thing from point guard to power forward, the Te r rap ins r e t u r n s t a r t e r Kevin McClinton. Last season in Williams' ab­sence, McClinton, a 6-3 junior, ran the team efficiently, averaging 4.4 assists. If the team goes to the bench, 5-10 senior Matt Downing and 6-2 sophomore Mike Thibeault will get the call.

Maryland's recruiting class could have been outstanding, but it was hurt by the school's tough academic standards and NCAA sanctions. Top recruits Donyell Marshall and Lawrence Moten could not satisfy Maryland's academic requirements and ended up at Connecticut and Syra­cuse, respectively.

The Terrapins were still able to salvage some quality talent. Geno Soto, a 6-7 Puerto Rico native, averaged 29 points and 12 rebounds per game in high school and could crack the starting lineup. Also up front the team will add 6-7 Kurtis Shultz, a banger inside, and 6-7 John Walsh, a New York City native who averaged 18 points and 11 rebounds in high school. The team also adds 6-2 guard Wayne Bristol, a frail, quick player who finds ways to score.

If the Terrapins, a senior-laden, experi­enced team, are going to move up into the top half of the toughest conference in the nation, they will be on the shoulders of Walt and the inspiration of Gary.

Nowhere to go but up for talented, young Tigers By SCOTT ECKEL

There's bad news and good news sur­rounding Clemson's 1991-92 basketball season. The bad news is that Clemson finished last in the Atlantic Coast Confer­ence last year and subsequently lost its best player, Dale Davis, in the NBA draft. The good news? Well, The Tigers can't do much worse this year.

After winning the ACC regular-season championship in 1989-90, the 1990-91

Davis remains to be seen. One area where Clemson does return

some experienced players is the backcourt. Young, the only senior on the squad, is the highlight of Clemson's perimeter talent. Last year he averaged 10.9 points, 3.6 assists and 3.1 rebounds per game. He is also the school's all-time leading three-point shooter with 125 trifectas in his career.

Young is a streaky shooter who can

They didn't expect Atlanta (Braves) or Minnesota (Twins) to go from last to first, but it happens.

Senior guard David Young

Clemson squad finished last in the ACC with a 2-12 conference record, 11-17 over­all. This year, Clemson was scheduled to return six lettermen — the lowest total in the ACC. However, two of those players — guard Eric Burks (transfer) and Sean Lastinger (withdrew from school) — are gone. A third, forward Wayne Buckingham (knee surgery), will not start the year, but could resume playing pending his recu­peration.

With all of this bleak news, is there any room for optimism at Clemson?

According to senior sharpshooter David Young, there is.

"They didn't expect Atlanta (Braves) or Minnesota (Twins) to go from last to first," said Young, "but it happens.

"I know we'll probably be picked last," continued Young, "but we were picked last the year before last year and we won the ACC."

Whether such optimism is warranted for a team that lacks a returning go-to bigman such as Elden Campbell or Dale

really light it up when he's hot. For in­stance, in last year's Wake Forest game Young scored 34 points on 9-11 shooting from the field, including eight three point­ers.

The two other returnees to the backcourt are sophomores Andre Bovain and Steve Harris. Both saw considerable playingtime last year as freshmen, and the experience should prove to be valuable.

Bovain averaged 5.0 points, 2.7 rebounds and 1.7 assists last season. He was also voted Clemson's top defensive player, the first freshman in 10 years to win the award.

The 6-4 Harris started 18 games at small forward and then started the last two contests at point guard. He averaged 4.5 points, 3.4 boards and 2.5 assists over the course ofthe season.

Although the amount of experience on this team is minimal, the team does boast a large and talented recruiting class.

According to Clemson head coach Cliff Ellis, the incoming freshmen at forward and center are the best in school history.

Among them are 6-10 center Sharone Wright out of Macon, Georgia, and 6-6 forward Devin Gray from Baltimore, Mary­land. Wright was a 1991 McDonald's All-American while Gray was the 1991 USA Today-Player ofthe Year from the state of Maryland.

"Both Wright and Gray come to Clemson as much more talented and highly-rated players than any other frontcourt players at Clemson in the last 10 years," said Ellis.

That's saying a lot, considering former Clemson bigmen Horace Grant, Elden Campbell and Dale Davis were all first-round picks in the NBA.

Joining Wright and Gray as frontcourt recruits are 6-6 Ryan Amestoy out of Snellville, Georgia, and two junior-college bangers — 6-7, 240-pound Kevin Hines from Chipola JC and 6-7,225-pound Corey Wallace from Allegany CC.

New faces in the Clemson backcourt include 6-0 Juco transfer Chris Whitney and 6-1 freshman Anthony Smith.

Smith is expected to contribute immedi­ately. He is a fine foul shooter and once hit 13 three-pointers in a high school game.

It looks like it's going to be a long season for the Clemson Tigers in the talent-laden ACC. Wayne Buckingham's injury leaves the team with absolutely no big-game ex­perience in the frontcourt and only three returning lettermen overall. Although Clemson did have a good recruiting class, that talent is still raw.

With all these negatives is there any­thing to be positive about?

Young, the eternal optimist, seems to have found one way to look at it.

"At least we don't have anything to lose," said Young, "I think we're going to sneak up on a lot of teams this year."

The Kost of success Fifth-year senior Monika Kost looks forward to final year

By MICHAEL KRACHON Monika Kost is more than happy to be

returning for a fifth year of basketball at Duke University; she's ecstatic. It is the best of both worlds for her: she gets an­other year of basketball as well as another year of undergraduate studies.

Kost, a 6-1 forward who hails from Lindenhurst, NY, had the option of return-

Kost hopes the fifth time is a charm.

ing to Duke for a fifth year since she missed the entire 1989 season with a torn anterior cruciate ligament in her left knee.

"It was a pretty even decision both aca­demically and athletically," said Kost. "I decided last year I wanted to be a P.A. [Physician's Assistant]. I am getting a B.S. in pyschology and am pretty much pre-med. So I decided to remain an under­graduate, even though I could have gradu­ated last year.

"From a basketball standpoint, I do not think I have been the player I was re­cruited as, these past four years. I just looked at [the extra year] as an opportu­nity that I really should not have had. It was a once-in-a-lifetime chance. It would have been silly not to take advantage ofit."

This season will find Kost playing a much different role than she has played in the past. As a fifth-year senior and the leading returning scorer, Kost will be vital to the success ofthe Blue Devils. She will be expected to become a scoring threat, hit the boards and act as a role model for the younger players on the squad (nine of 13 team members this year are freshmen or sophomores.)

The Blue Devils will depend heavily on Kost because the top two scorers from last year, Sue Harnett and Traci Williams, both graduated. Kost provided Duke with just over 10 points a game last season, and will need to improve on that this year.

"I want to be more of an offensive threat than in recent years," explained Kost. "I want to be a player in the conference that people are a little intimidated by, instead of them seeing me as just another person floating around playing."

More importantly, Kost has settled into

her role here at Duke. "I am really looking forward to this year. I am mOre laid back now, than since I have been at Duke. It's nice to come in and know what is expected of me, what I have to do," she said.

Kost returns to Duke because of an in­jury that occured in the preseason of her sophomore year. As a freshman, Kost played in all 28 games as a backup to All-American Chris Moreland. When Moreland graduated, Kost was expected to fill her position on the court. But the injury oc­curred, and Kost was out for the year.

When Kost returned to action the fol­lowing year, she stepped into the starting lineup immediately and averaged 10 points and almost seven rebounds a game. Then last year, Kost again provided solid sup­port for the Blue Devils (10.8 ppg, 6.8 rpg).

As far as Kost is concerned, the knee is fine.

"My knee is about 95 percent of what it was before the injury. I don't think it will ever be 100 percent again, but at this point I almost feel like I never hur t it," she said.

Coming out of high school, Kost could have chosen any program in the country. During her senior year she led Lindenhurst H.S. to the state semifinals, scoring 20.8 points and grab­bing 18.0 rebounds a game. She was named New York's Miss Basketball, Prep All-Ameri­can and finished her career with a New York state record 1,428 points.

Coach Debbie Leonard sent her first recruiting letter to Kost midway through her freshman year. Kost narrowed her choices to Virginia, Stanford and Duke, but in the end it came down to academics, as well as the men's basketball team here.

"It's a big reason I came here. I'm like, wow, Duke basketball. I'm watching the

Monika Kost

men playing for a national championship." For Kost, there have been no regrets. "I would do it all over again in a second,"

she said. "Coach Leonard, the program here, it's been great. I really enjoy it here."

As far as team expectations go, Kost remains cautiously optimistic.

"For the most part I think it will be a lot like last year," she said. "We were picked to finish last in the conference, we finished fifth. This year we are in the same posi­tion, except we are younger. For the most part we are going to do well. I don't think we will come in first in the conference, but I think we will surprise a lot of people."

The only thing that remains for Kost is to enjoy her final year a t Duke.

"Personally, I am really thankful to be here for a fifth year," she said. "I look at it like, I should have graduated last year, and fortunately or unfortunately I had the knee injury. Now I have another chance to play Duke basketball. I'm really looking forward to it."

Women look beyond rankings Quick and aggressive play will be the keys for the women's basketball team

By DAVID ROYSTER Women's basketball head coach Debbie

Leonard does not put much stock in pre­season polls, and that 's a good thing.

Leonard's Blue Devils were picked to finish last in the Atlantic Coast Confer­ence standings one year ago, but Duke shocked everybody and cruised to a fifth-place finish. The 1990-91 season included such highlights as a win at nationally-ranked Maryland and a season sweep of rival North Carolina.

In addition, the Blue Devils lost by jus t two points to nationally-ranked Clemson in the first round ofthe ACC Tournament. The Tigers then proceeded to upset top-ranked Virginia and come within three points of a Final Four appearance in the NCAA Tournament. Duke also led ninth-ranked Purdue by as many as 14 points before succumbing in a 69-58 defeat in the championship ofthe Duke Dial Classic. All things considered, last season was an ex­cellent one for Duke.

So as the 1991-92 women's basketball season approaches, ACC pundits have again penned Duke to finish low in the pack, seventh in the new nine-team league to be exact. There are two principal rea­sons for the prediction: Traci Williams and Sue Harnett . Their absence, tha t is.

Forward Williams and center Harnett , a third-team All-American last year, com­bined for 32 points and 16 rebounds per game, hefty numbers that are going to be missed this season.

"I thought we had a great season last year," said Leonard. "And when you look on paper, the reasons we had such a great season were Traci Williams and Sue Harnett. We kind of had our firepower

taken away while everybody else in the conference has at least some of theirs back.

In traditional Leonard fashion, the Duke coach has the ultimate confidence in her new team's ability to overcome preseason predictions and go on to an outstanding finish in the ACC, second only to the South­eastern Conference in women's basketball prestige.

"I think on paper we should finish last," said Leonard. "But I don't think that 's how it will end up.

"This is my favorite team since I've been coaching at Duke. It's not the most talent I've had, but they enjoy themselves very much and I enjoy coaching them because their atti tude is outstanding."

First and foremost on the agenda if Duke intends to again thwart the pre­season prognostications will be to recover some of the lost scoring and rebounding punch left by the graduations of Harnett and Williams. Fifth-year senior Monika Kost and senior Celeste Lavoie will prob­ably start down low for Duke and be counted on to provide quality post play.

Kost, who started 27 games for the Blue Devils last year, averaged 10.6 points per game and pulled down almost seven re­bounds a contest. Kost is an excellent me­dium-range shooter and her post moves are smooth and controlled.

Lavoie t ransfer red to Duke from Stanford two years ago and was expected to be a stalwart for Duke last year before she blew out her knee during a summer pickup game. But Lavoie is healthy now, and is greatly anticipating her first and final full season as a Blue Devil. She scored 1.7 ppg last year in limited action, but was in the process of recovering from her in­

jury. "If you had to describe the way Celeste

played last year, you'd have to say injured and tentative," said Leonard. "But now she's strong and playing strong.

She's a player a lot of people have for­gotten about. We're looking for her to play in all our games this year."

Sophomores Val Evans and Shannon Wills will again provide backup for the Duke frontline. Leonard sees great im­provement in Evans, who played just 5.7 minutes per game last year and averaged 1.7 points.

"Val has become such a team leader," said Leonard. "She's much quicker and a much better jumper and she'll certainly have an opportunity to give us some min­utes this year."

The Duke backcourt probably poses the most uncertainty for the Blue Devils. Last year, Robin Baker and Pam McFarland both got the call a t point guard at varying times during the season. At this prema­ture stage ofthe season, Leonard said that Baker might begin the year as the starter, but things could change.

Sophomore Nicole Johnson, who had an outstanding freshman campaign, and sophomore Missy Anderson will also enter into the equation in the backcourt.

Junior Dana McDonald, a sharp shoot­ing off-guard who averaged 9.5 ppg, is perhaps the only definite starter in the backcourt.

"A lot of our success will depend on Dana hi t t ing from the outside," said Leonard.

Women 20 recruiting classes in the nation. The Class of '95 is led by third-team high school All-American and Virginia Gatorade Player ofthe Year Zeki Blanding, a wiry 6-3 forward. Blanding will certainly get play­ing time throughout the season and will add depth to the Duke frontcourt.

"Zeki is a much stronger player at this point in time than I thought she'd be," said Leonard. "Maintaining intensity is a big thing for her."

Rounding out the freshman class are guards Susan Brandau and Kristina Meiman and forward Carey Kauffman. Brandau will enter into the picture at the point guard spot, while Meiman and Kauffman solve a perennial problem for

From page 28 Duke with their depth.

Leonard plans to employ a new philoso­phy with Duke women's basketball this season in an effort to maximize the talent quotient of her team.

"We're going to be a much more aggres­sive team both offensively and defensively," said Leonard. "We're certainly going to be much more aggressive the first 10 to 15 seconds of each possession and we're going to get the ball downcourt as quickly as we can.

"When you decide to [change philoso­phies], it is a major committment and you're going to take your lumps.

"But we're going to do well this year too. I strongly believe that."

Strong Cavaliers favored to repeat as ACC champions By DAVID ROYSTER

Unbeknownst to many fans of the At­lantic Coast Conference, often considered to be the most well-balanced athletic con­ference in the land, the ACC came within one minute of achieving something tha t has never been done before in the history of collegiate sports.

Last year, the ACC almost swept na­tional championships in football, men's basketball and women's basketball. Ev­erybody knows that Georgia Tech won a share of the grid-iron title and that the bridesmaid Blue Devils achieved the ulti­mate hoops glory, but how many sports fans knew that Virginia was leading Ten­nessee by five points with one minute to play in the women's national champion­ship game?

Unfortunately, the Volunteers rallied to beat the Cavaliers in overtime to spoil the chance at ultimate bragging rights for the ACC, but this year UVa, ranked second nationally in most polls behind Tennessee, could get revenge.

Yes, Virginia is far and away the best team in the ACC this year, and the unani­mous choice to roll to the conference title next spring. The Cavaliers, who have ap­peared in the last two women's Final Fours, are led by 1991 National Player of the Year, Dawn Staley, a senior point guard. Staley is one of four starters returning from last year's team, which went 14-0 in the ACC during the regular season. Off-guard Tammi Reiss and 6-4 twin towers (literally) Heather and Heidi Burge will complement Staley's amazing play-mak­ing ability with a potent, inside-outside balanced attack which will take the Cavs to the league title and garner Staley an­other Player ofthe Year trophy.

"All the other awards are nice," said Staley, "but what every athlete aspires to do is to win a national championship."

"Losing in overtime in the finals is going to propel us into this year," said head coach Debbie Ryan. "We are very ready for the year."

Chasing Virginia for the ACC title will be the Maryland Terrapins, who have seven of their top eight players returning from their third-place team of 1991. Lead­ing the team is forward All-America candi­date Dafne Lee, who will be complemented

Carolina State Wolfpack, the defending ACC T o u r n a m e n t champion and a perrenial national powerhouse under leg­endary coach Kay Yow. Gone from last year 's t eam are All-America Andrea Stinson, and ACC Tournament MVP Sharron Manning, the two of which com­bined for nearly 40 ofthe Pack's points per game last year.

But All-vAmerica candidate Rhonda

All the other awards are nice, but what every athlete aspires to do is win a national champion­ship.

Virginia senior guard Dawn Staley

in the post by last year's ACC Rookie ofthe Year, Bonnie Bimkus.

"We've had a great preseason and this might be the best team I've ever had," said Terrapin head coach Chris Weller. "It's my most athletic team and it is demonstrating the greatest amount of enthusiasm I've ever seen."

Only a three-point loss to Connecticut in the Final Eight ofthe NCAA Tournament last year kept the Clemson Tigers from making the school's first trip to the Final Four, and head coach Jim Davis' Tigers are returning a cast of athletic players led by guard Cheron Wells that could be Davis' best team ever.

"Cheron Wells may be the best offensive player in this league," said Davis.

Along with the penetrating ability of Wells, Kerry Boyatt-Hall gives the Tigers "the premier three-point shooter in the ACC," according to Davis.

Perhaps the hardest hit team in the conference due to graduation is the North

Mapp will continue State's tradition of outstanding forward play and point guard Danyel Parker will lead State to a strong league finish.

"This team has high expectations and are dreamers," said Yow. "We have seven letter winners returning and they will all be seeing a lot of playing time."

Newcomer Florida State will make an immediate impact on the ACC women's basketball scene. The Seminoles were champions of the Metro Conference last year and came within three points of the Sweet 16 ofthe 1991 NCAA Tournament. Point guard Robin Corn and forward Chantelle Dishman will be the key players as FSU tries to take the ACC by storm.

"Our assets are speed, quickness and depth," said Seminole head coach Marynell Meadors. "We feel like we're strong enough to finish in the top half ofthe ACC."

Leading the second division of the con­ference is Georgia Tech, which returns all five starters from last year's 15-13

team. The Yellow Jackets boast two All-ACC players with sharp shooting guard Karen Lounsbury and power forward Joyce Pierce. This could be the year that Tech emerges from the pack as a team to be reckoned with in the ACC.

"I have had a young team but now I have a team that has matured," said head coach Agnus Berenato. "We played with sopho­mores last year and this year we're playing with juniors and seniors."

Duke was picked near the bottom last year and overachieved its way to a fifth-place finish, and coach Debbie Leonard and the Blue Devils hope to do the same thing this year. Duke is smarting from the loss of two ofthe best inside players in the conference last year in Traci Williams andSue Harnett, butseniorsMonika Kost and Celeste Lavoie will toil down low in 1991-92. Junior Dana McDonald will need to bury some trifectas, and freshman Zeki Blanding should provide Duke with inside depth.

"It's going to be a transitional year for us," said Leonard. "You're going to see a more aggressive Duke basketball than you've seen before."

After losing its entire frontline to gradu­ation, Wake Forest will depend on its excellent backcourt of Nicole Le vesque and B.J. Thames to pull the Deacons out ofthe basement.

"Basically we lost our entire frontline," said Wake head coach Joe Sanchez. "We're looking to provide a different look than we've had in the past."

Picking up the rear in the ACC is North Carolina (again), the only team to post an overall losing record last year. Sophomore forward Tonya Sampson and point guard Emily Johnson must lead this team if it hopes to avoid the cellar.

"We're looking for a Braves-Minnesota situation here, going from the bottom to the top," said UNC coach Sylvia Hatchell.
