The convocation, which marks the begin­ning of the 1992-93 academic year, will not coincide with student registration, which will resume at 5:15p.m.

Henson, an editorial writer for the Herald Leader of Lexington, Ky., worked on the Old Gold and Black as a reporter and an assistant editor.

Her editorial series, published from Dec. 1990 to Dec. 1991, exposed Kentucky's failure to provide legal protection for bat­tered women. Titled "To Have and To Harm,'' the series pointed out the unwilling­ness of some public officials to address the issue and offered specific suggestions for improving protection.

Today, they will see the product of their handiwork as 904 of the applicants arrive on campus. According to Martha Allman, the associate director of admissions, 44 percent of the applicants were accepted.

The freshmen represent 40 states and six foreign countries: Ghana, United Arab Emir­ates, United Kingdom, Netherlands, Canada and Kuwait. Twenty-six percent are from North Carolina."The group is one of diver­sity," Allman said.

The ratio of men to women is 51 percent men to 49 percent women. '"We've come a long way in closing this gap," Allman said. "It actually was 50150. The difference was the number of day students, which we can't control."

Substance-free housing option expanded for freshman students

BY BRAD DIXON

NEWS EDITOR

Don't drink. Don't smoke. What do you do? For the second year, incoming freshman had an alterna­

tive: Residence Life and Housing provides substance-free housing for students who want to avoid roommates· and hallmates who expose them to second-hand smoke, drunken babbling, destructive behavior, the lingering reek of vomit and marijuana, etc.

Most importantly, substance-free housing shields stu­dents from peer pressure to drink alcoholic beverages, smoke or take illegal drugs, said Dennis Gregory, the direc­torofRLH. -

Gregory said that because the frrst year was successful -no reported violations - and interest remained high, RLH made accommodations for all of more than 300 students who requested substance-free housing.

Gregory said that last year only 45 of more than 300 students who requested substance-free housing received it because he "only made plans for a small trial area."

RLH has expanded substance-free housing in Johnson Residence Hall, where the option debuted last year for men and women, from one floor to all four floors, he said.

Bostwick Residence Hall now has two substance-free floors for women, and Taylor House has two substance-free suites for men, Gregory said.

Students who lived on Johnson's substance-free floor last year were not left to fend for their substance-free lifestyles as sophomores on a beer-soaked campus. They had the option ofliving in the substance-free theme house in Piccolo Residence Hall, which houses 63 upperclassmen.

Nathan Rantala, a sophomore who lives in the theme house, said 15 men and 15 women from Johnson's sub­stance-free floor joined with other interested students to propose the theme to RLH. Several more students selected rooms there through the lottery, but they must also obey the rules of the house, he said. ·

"The theme house ensures a better environment because the parties aren't here," Rantala said. "It provides an envi­ronment that you can stay in and get work done without having to worry about being kept up all night."

. Rantala said that last year, some students had misconcep­tions about the covenant students must sign to live in substance-free housing. The covenant says that stude.nts must not enter the floor under the influence of 8Icohol or drugs.

Contrary to popular belief, it does not say substance-free students cannot drink alcoholic beverages anywhere on campus, he said.

"Youcan'tcomebackwasted,'' he said. "Ityougooffand drink, then you have to stay somewhere else."

In February, RLH surveyed students living on Johnson's substance-free floor, students who requested to live on the hall but were not placed there and a random sample of 10 percent of all juniors and seniors.

Gregory said the surveys showed that many students feel "this is a very positive thing to do."

Gregory said the. surveys revealed continuing interest from freshmen who wanted to, but could not, live in sub­stance-free housing.

On a survey question, 90 percent of students who lived on the substance-free floor said their parents were not involved in the decision to live there, he said.

Gregory said he decided to make substance-fr~ housing available because RLH "heard from a number ·of students who feel tremendous peer pressure."

Before substance-free housing is available for upperclass­men outside of the theme house, RLH will conduct more surveys to determine intere~t,and strengths and weaknesses.

Rantala said although the theme house in Piccolo, located behind the soccer stadium, is far from central campus, he doos not feel too secluded. He said it takes about five minutes to reach the Quad. ~ .

Gregory said Picc;,olo was selected because its small size met the needs of a group he knew would be small. The hall can also house both men and women, he said.

To organize a presentation on substance-free housing for the National Ass.ociation for Student Personnel Administra­tors in Boston in March, Gregory is working with adminis­trators from other universities that offer substance_-free hous­ing, including Northwestern Umversity, Southern.-Illinois University at Edwardsville, the University of Michigan and Temple University.

-----------------------------------------N~s-----------------------------------------Double rooms become triples to accomodate freshman males

Bv TERESE MAcK ASSISTANT NEWS EDITOR

Fifteen front double rooms in Kitchin House will become triples for 45 incoming freshman males this semester, said Dennis Gregory, the director of Residence Life and Housing.

"We had planned for 840 freshmen," Gre­gory said. "But when the admissions office found a lower return rate than was expected, more freshmen were offered admission.

"That rate ended up much higher than we expected - there are nearly 880 freshmen coming in (to live on campus)."

Gregory said RLH is working on "de-tri­pling" the 15 rooms before the end of first semester. "That will all depend on the numbet of withdrawals and so forth," he said.

The number of rooms left to be "de-tripled" is down from the original 20.

In the meantime, the cost of the rooms will be divided among the three men in each room to.

the affected students and parents but we did wait until the last minute to see if any\ more changes would take place," Gregory said. A representative froni the admissions office and RLH will speak to parents and students upon arrival today.

Gregory said RLH chose Kitchin House be­cause the front rooms are larger and the furni­ture smaller than the other residence halls on campus.

"We hope this problem is a unique one," Gregory said. "We really want to try to de­crease the pressure on the admissions office to match their number of incoming students with our number of available rooms. We hope to do this through building more student apartments

"In deciding admission of students, our foremost concentration is on a strong high school record - taking the toughest courses offeredanddoingwell," Allman said. "We're looking for a solid class rank."

Allman said the admissions office staff decides admission based on faculty-approved guidelines, which emph~ized leadership, tal­ents ~nd outside activities.

EDITORIALS

Seize this day . so,you'veapplied,beenaccepted,graduatedfrom

high school, packed your belongings, and said good-bye to Mom and Dad. Take a deep breath

because now you're here, ready to try your hand at college life.

For your frrst few weeks, you can expect everything to be scheduled and by the book as you become officially acclimated to the university. We only advise you not to let such a systematic way of life mark your entire college experience. To do so would be a waste you could regret the rest of your life.

But back to the beginning. Orientation is where you start, and that means you'll all hear the same advice and endure the same tedious, but necessary, programs designed to set you up in this, your new-found home. _ So, as you know, the first few days will be a whirl

of automated activity. Come Aug. 26, however, your lives diverge. Classes begin; returning students are back; things settle down.

At Wake Forest, one can take good classes, work hard and really fill up some gray matter. Alas, it is also possible to get by with minimal effort in mediocre classes. Delving into the social realm, Wake Forest has its share of round-the-clock drinkers and partiers,' but thankfully they're balanced by some moderates, and even a .strong contingent of students who choose not to drink at all.

The university offers outstanding opportunities for getting involved in extra-curricular activities and for interaction with the faculty. Students who take advan­tage of these opportunities say they are the most fulfilling aspects of their college experience.

Since college is a transition from childhood to adulthood, you should act realizing college will play a pivotal role in shaping the person you will become. You are in a position now where you can choose what path you want to take, how much you will get out of Wake Forest, and who you will be in four years. We encourage each of you to strike out.Take the high road.

In college you will have a great deal of free time on your hands. What will you do with it? What will those activities say about who you are? How will they enrich the person you will be?

Keeping such questions in mind along the way, you can't go wrong. For now, we welcome you upon the journey of a lifetime.

Spirit, no twins, marks true champions

C ongratulations. You are now officially ~embers of the De­mon D~con fraternity. Be­

cause I doubt many of you are whoop­ing and hollering at this new accolade, I, the Old Gold &Black sports editor, am set on trying to convince you that being a sports fan at Wake Forest is not as catastrophic as you are expecting.

I would guess that many of you chose Wake Forest over colleges like Geor­gia, Penn State, Alabama, North Caro­lina and other athletic powerhouses, teams rich in tradition you grew up cheering for. Mine was Tennessee.

"I'll go to Wake Forest," I said when I arrived here my freshman year, "but I'll still be a Tennessee fan."

I am still a Tennessee fan, but Wake. Forest has endeared itself to me in a unique and powerful way.

Wake Forest is not without an athletic tradition of its own. Basketball has seen its fair share of glory and has crowned more than a few legends.

The Demon Deacons visited the Fi­nal Four back in 1962, and, more re­cently, Wake Forest has beaten national­champion Duke each of the past two years.

Dickie Hemric, the conference's all­time leading scorer, wore the black and gold, as did Billy Packer of CBS and

MIKE FITZGERALD

S1UDENT CoLUMNIST

"Mr. Cash" fame and (for any Char­lotte natives) Hornets point guard Tyrone "Muggsy" Bogues.

The golfteamh~knownmany great moments, winning three national cham­pionships. More impressive than the trophies,. though, is the school's tradi­tion of sending players to the profes­sional ranks. Arnold Palmer, perhaps the sports' most identifiable figure, played for Wake Forest, as did Curtis Strange and Lanny Wadkins.

But don't let me fool you. Wake Forest is not Notre Dame. Only Kansas State has known more ineptitude than the Demon Deacons in football, and the basketball teamhasn 't beaten North Caro_lina since I was 15 years old.

More important to me than wins and losses (or the lack thereof) is being part of the Wake Forest spirit. Basketball coach Dave Odom once said: "The Wake Forest tradition is one of great resiliency, of playing with your back to the wall."

Cheering for Wake Forest is entirely different from cheerlngfor a big school. I expect Tennessee to win and when

they don't, I get mad and try to­figure out how such a tragedy could occur.

With Wake Forest, I go into most · games knowing that it's going to take.a miracle. If it doesn't happen, well, it's not really ~opposed to. But if it does, it is the most glorious feeling because for a few moments. you know that Wake Forest over­came everything stacked against. it and toppled one of the giants.

When -I hear people complain about the football team, I know they don't understand what W alee Forest is all about. This isn't a program built on bowl games and AP rankings. If you want that, go to Clemson.

This is a 3-8 team you can love more than any 10-1 team because Wake Forest won those three games standing for all the things it stands for, remaining all the things it is.

I can't completely explain what all those things are, but once this year W alee Forest will upset some­body big, maybe Clemson, maybe North Carolina, -somebody. When you come back to campus and roll the Quad, find your roommate and give him a high five, you 'II figure it out for yourself.

Substance-free housing creates unrealistic overprotective living environment

When the basement of Johnson Residence Hall became substance free last year, great chagrin spread throughout the campus, especially in the

hearts of its past inhabitants. Long gone were the days of illicit drug abuse and

drunken puke fests in the bathroom every night. Too bad. Beer-soaked halls were very popular back then as well

(Beer cans lined every trash can and empty bottles ofliquor were kept in every room as trophies, if you buy the fables). Everyone was forced to drink alcohol, smoke cigarettes and inhale cans of whipped cream.

Those rather nostalgic substance abusers believed this new fad- substance-free housing- would not last. They simply assumed that the karma of the hall would overcome any inclination toward proper living.We now have sub­stance-free dorms for freshmen and substance-free theme houses for upperclassmen. The hopeful drunkards were wrong. But what does substance-free housing really mean?

Though the stories of puke fests and illicit drug use are long and well-known, you can't possibly believe them. Such activities simply do not take place at a fine university such as Wake Forest. Maybe you don't need me to tell you that. I will give you the benefit of the doubt and count on your ability to recognize reality.

CHRIS WICKLAND

STUDENT .COLUMNIST

But I will tell you this. By signing your life away to substance-free housing, you are saying that you, as a freshman under the age of 21, will live with other people under the age of 21 wi~out taking any illegal drugs or • drinking any illegal alcohol. The only legal thing you are giving up is smoking. · .

Basically, substance-free -ho~sing serves a purpose. It proves the administration is finally accepting that people who want to drink will drink, no matter what is done to stop them (Of course this will not stop administrative dictator-ship at parties). -

However, they are also admitting those who do not drink or take drugs are so weak that they must be isolated from those elements, all of which happen to exist in the real world. I hear rumors that some people even deal with these facts of life every day. ·

I thought the goal of the college was to prepare people for life, not to isolate us in a make believe world. Such is life at Wake Forest, your very .own ivory tow~r. . ...

The Beat~ Goes On As neUIIJear he9ins1 last IJear' s eflents remain important

Bv EDDIE SoUTHERN

PERsPECTIVES EDITOR

T o enroll in a college is to intertwine four years of your life with that of an institution. However, the influential events that help to shape the campus

culture often precede your four years. Several events from last year had a great

impact on ~he campus in various ways, either on the morale of the student body, the re­sources and landscape of the campus or the actual framework of the college.

A CONTROVERSY THAT began in spring 1991 ended last November when a mistrial was declared in the public Honor Council hearing of then junior John Meroney, the editor of the Wake Forest Critic, an independent student magazine.

were rung. After rolling everything that did not run away, several students began "mud­sliding'' across the soggy -grass, which is normally off-limits. Most students said they felt that the Quad celebration was the stron­gest display of the oft-mentioned "Wake Forest community" that they had ever seen.

OTHER STORIES THAT paraded through the campus's attention include a brief crime spree at the start of last year~ the Project Pro Humanitate drive to build a house for an underprivileged family, the continu­ing shortage of on-campus parking and the student outrage over over the denial of ten­ure to assistant professor of German Michael Gilbert, a controversy that has. yet to be resolved.

The seven-month affair began April 4 when Meroney refused to leave an emer­gency meeting of the Black Student Alli­ance, saying he had a right to be there as a member of the press.

As a result of this incident, Harold Holmes, t~e dean of student services, charged Meroney with disorderly conduct and the BSA president with physical abuse and threat of physical abuse.

Students mudslide across the freshly rolled Quad after the men's basketbaD team beat Duke University last February.

In the course of this year, new stories will emerge that will- capture the mind· of the college, dominating conversations and in­fluencing thinking. Such events are the equivalent of courses and textbooks; they often force stud~nts, as well as faculty and administrators, to reevaluate and'analyze, to confront new concepts and devise· new rationals, and to define _beliefs and take a· stand.

The Case Referral Panel dismissed the

charges against against the BSA president and referred the charges against Meroney to the Judicial Board. Two mistrials were de-

clared in the Judi­cial Board hearing, which resulted in the charges being dropped.

Meroney faced the Honor Council on charges of ly­ing in connection to the April4 inci­dent. The mistrial in these hearings officially ended the case. However, as a result of the "Meroney trial," the judicial policy of the university had to be more rig­orously defined.

The Edwin G. Wilson Wing of the Z. Smith Reynolds Library was dedicated Feb. 6 in an afternoon ceremony_. The man for whom the wing was named was the featured speaker at Founder's Day ·-Convocation held that morning. The $7.3 million addi­tion houses com­puter facilities., an

audio/video media center and additional study space.

The next day, the board of trustees revived a chronic brushfire when they raised undergradu­ate tuition by 11.1 per­cent to a total of$12,000. Although the board as­sured students that they had taken all factors into account, the national re­cession fueled the dissent. The increase, which the trustees said was needed to augment faculty sala­ries and financial aid, caused many students to ask where the university's money was being spent.

To make up for the raise in tuition, the men's bas­ketball team gave the uni­versity a present by beat­ing top-ranked and even­tual national champion Duke University Feb. 23. The fans mobbed the floor at Joel Memorial Coli­seum after the Demon Deacons came from be­hind in the last five min­lites to stun the Blue Dev­ils, 72-68.

Despite the miserable weather, hundreds of stu­dents gathered- on the Quad to celebrate the win as the bells in Wait Chapel

Hints help freshtnenadjust to Wake Forest campus BY SARA IIAiuuNG'fON AND JASoN HoLTON

ARTs AND ENTERTAINMENT Eoi'J'ORS

Every class of freshmen has its problems assimilating. But with a few tips and helpful hints the process can be much easier. Follow

· our ,advice and· maybe you can avoid the blank stare of helplessness that the first days of college inspire.

Things to Do

Even though W ak:e Forest has loads to offer, every once in a while it is good to get away. Try these cool places and save your sanity.

•Pilot Mountain has a view of the surround­ing area and the freshest air (not tainted by tobacco) around. Go out University Park­way away from town; get on 52 North and follow the signs.

•Old Salem was the original settlement of Moravians. Twelve buildings on South Main Street are restored and includes·people dem­onstrating the Moravian lifestyle of the 19th centwy.

•TheReynolda area is a great place to go and it is just right next door. If you are feeling the need to return to nature, the gardens are the place for you. The Reynolda Village is a nice place to shop and hang out, esJ?ecially

•R.J.ReynoldsTobaccoCompanyonNorth Cherry _Street gives free tours of the ·ciga­

-rette prOduction and gives away some cool items.

Slang

Being at college means a new outlook on life and sometimes that includes a new lan­guage. Here are a few terms to make you sound like an upperclassman and impress your friends.

"Hook up" is a classic W akeForest term that can mean having a deep and philosophical discussion with your professor after class.

•"Tommy K" is the term of endeannent of choice for our illustrious leader Hearn.

"The Quad" is the area between Wait Chapel and~eynolda. As tradition dictates, the Quad is rolled with toilet paper after any w ak:e victory'. "The Magnolia Quad" is the field behind ReynolCia and beside Benson.

•"Beer-gogg~ing" or ''Yoshing" is the ex­pression used when a person under the influ­ence.of alcohol is attracted to another person less than physically desirable. Example: "Friends don't let friends beer-goggle."

•"Love-fagging" i( used to describe the -•overly cute antics that

go on between two people who think girl­friends and boyfriends can only communicate in baby-talk.

---•''The Green Room" is the large room in Reynolda behind the partition as you walk in the front doors.

•"Tunneling" is the term used to describe ·the illegal action of crawling in dark, in­tensely hot mainte­nance tunnels under­neath the campus for the sake of "fun."

ErieWIWams

Reynolda Gardens is a favorite meditation and studying spot. •"Bowhead" is used to describe ·rather vapid females whose hair or,.. narnentsarelargerthan

if you cannot catch a ride to Hanes Mall. But one of the main things to see is the Reynolda House which just reopened. Built by R. J. Ryynolds, it has one of the largest privately owned art collections in the South as well as the sheer beauty of the architecture.

•The Wake Forest Museum -of Anthropol­ogy is the only museum in North Carolina devoted to world cultures. Although located next to Palmer and Piccolo residence halls; few Wake students take advantage·. of the opportunity.

their heads.

•"Scoping" is the totally cold and analytical process of trying to find the perfect mate for the night.

Radio Stations

~A ·staple of every college student's life is music. Here is a list of the best local radio stations.

•W AKE Radio is a cable access station that

plays a wide :. gamutofgenresof · music. Totally run · by students, it should be the fll"St I station you tune ; into. You can pick , it up on your tele- · vision on channel 2 or, with cable · splitters, you can pick it up on your · radio. Cable split­ters are available at the radio station office in Benson 512.

•WFDD 88.5 FM, which plays jazz, classical and folk music, is the cui- Sharon Letchworth

favorite radio station, WAKE radio.

•KISS 98.7 FM plays top forty hits for you dance fiends. On Sunday, it broadcasts ''The Weekly Top Forty" with Rick Dees.

Bands

One of the best ways to disguise the fact that you are a freshman is to be knowledge­able about the local bands in the area and whether they suck or not.

•Johnny-Quest is an energetic alternative band that has increased in popularity. Be sure to wear steel-toed boots to their shows.

•The Spin Doctors' video is being aired on MTV. They are funky and fun.

·S~x Police gives an alternative twist to alternative music with the addition of a brass section to their band.

•Dillon Fence has always been a favorite around Wake Forest because of their soulful sound.

•Two Pound Planet is your average black clad, synthesizer band, but their lyrics are so sappy it will make your teeth hurt. • •Speck has a cool beat, and you can dance to it.

Clubs

Although Winston-Salem isn't Athens or Chapel Hill, it still has some interesting clubs.

•Ziggy' s is the place where most of the popular bands play. Duringwarmerweather, Ziggy' s outdoor entertainment is on the deck, which is enclosed by a tent in cooler weather. Equipped with pool tables and pinball machines, it has a lot to offer.

.Corbin'~ has a pool table, full bar and small dance floor. Lots of society, sorority and

fraternity sponsored parties.

•Baity's has dropped in popularity but still has its moments.

•Penelope's has an intimate setting with-an occasional acoustical musician.

•Soho Alley is the alternate music choice for Wake Forest. If you get tired of Micheal Bolton and Mariah Carey, this is the place for you. --

Restaurants

Even if ARA was the nectar of the gods it would get old after a period of time. Every­one needs to get off campus and experience other culinary delights.

•Rainbow News -and Cafe off Broad Street has the atmosphere of both a bohemian bookstore and restaurant. Fairly cheap.

•Rose & Thistle Restaurant on Lockland A venue features great pizza and weekend folk music. Cheap.

•K & W Cafeteria on Coliseum Drive gives you an enormous amount of food for pocket change .

•Spring Garden on First and Hawthorne is a yuppie hamburger joint with some class. Fairly cheap.

•Mountain Fried Chicken off of University gives discounts for students and loads of food for little money. A student dream come true.

•Dessertery on Stratford gives new meaning to the word sinful. It may be a bit expensive but it makes a great way to treat yourself.

I

• Village Tavern has the advantage of being . walking distance from campus. Good food for a rea.so~~ble price.

Wake Forest looks to freshmen BY Mgm FITZGERALD

Making ·the transition from high school to college is tough. Finding classes, buying books,payingpark­ing tickets, sometimes it can be a little overwhelming. Add a two­hour practi~e every day to your

· typical schedule and you can imag­ine what it is like to be a freshman athlete.

Although this class may not have a Rodney Rogers, it is certainly not without its share of future stars.

· FootbaU

One of the biggest catches was Rusty LaRue, a quarterback from NorthwestGuilfordinGreensboro. LaRue, the North Carolina Athlete of the Year, will play quarterback this fall.

Another new Deacon with im­pressive laurels is Bo Loy, an of­fe~sive lineman from Burlington. Loy was named honorable men­tion all-American by USA Today and played in the Shrine Bowl. ·

Other offensive linemen include Bill Leeder from Belmont, Mich., DougMarsigli from Rocky Mount, Tony Yarnall from Brookhaven, Penn., Brian Heldebrandt, who played for Plano High in Texas, one of the top programs in the na-

tion, and Doug Bolt from Colum­bia, S.C. , Joining LaRue at quarterback is

Tommy Stuetzer from Dunwoody, Ga. and Jody Brown, who played at Statesville High until his senior year, when he played for Fork Union Military Academy in Vir­ginia.

Coach Bill Dooley wanted to add depth at running back, so he ~ignedfive ballcarriers,all of whom could see playing time. Sherron Gudger is one of Wake Foreses most touted recruits, winning Player of the Year honors at McDonough High in Temple Hills~ Md. He was also named to the SuperPrep all-American team.

LaDwaun Harrison arrives at Wake Forest from Hillside High in Durham, the same school that pro­duced Rodney Rogers. Stacie GreshamfromNewportNews, Va. will also add depth in the backfield, as will Gardell Chavis from. Fayetteville and John Lewis from Elizabethtown.

On the defensive side Wake For­est signed lin~men Jerome SimpkinsofOpaLocka,Fla.,Mar­tin Kuser from Bel Air, Md. and Harold Gragg of Black Mountain.

Wake Forest recruited a package deal at linebacker when Chris and Steve Vaughan came to Winston­Salem from Rainelle, W.Va.

At defensive back the Demon Deacons will use newcomers Ma­jor Griffey from Norton, Va., Alexis Sockwell from Salisbury, Tim Johnson from Hampton, Va., and Robert Barnes, who attended Tabb High in Virginia, the same school that produced Virginia's Terry Kirby and Chris Sla~.

Soccer

The soccer team has added' eight players to its roste~, signing Eric Brandsma, a member of the Dutch youth national team, Aaron Budzinski from Milwaukee, Brian Kavanaugh from Sewell, NJ., Ja­son Little from El Cajon, Calif., Andrew Moore from Bowie, Md., Mike Petry from Cincinnati, Ohio, Tim Woods from Elmgrove, Wis., and Jason Zaks from Severna Park, Md.

Cross Country

Coach John Goodridge contin­ued to stockpile all-Americans, signing Mark Davis from Spartanburg, S·.C., the Southern Regional champion. He also landed Eric Pragle of Asheville, the N.C. state champion as a junior. Other distance runners include Brandon GoldsboroughfromKatonah,N.Y., See Recruits, Page 11 .

The field hockey team's .mov~·ment to becoming an ACC member is in full­·swing.

After playing in the Deep South Conference since the program's inception, Wake Forest will face all four ACC teams this season. North

hockey coach Jennifur Averill said.

Averill, a first-yearcoach who arrived from Bucknell, has been given the assign­ment of overseeing the tran­sition to ACC play.

She hopes to play some of the old Deep South oppo­nents as well as ACC teams

and top-ranked national pow­ers.

"I'm very adamant about playing higher-caliber schools. Several ACC teams are national contenders,such as North Carolina and Mary­land, and I want to play some

. schools in the northeaSt.". ·

For the frrst year, scholar­ships will be offered in field hockey, but the team will still be accepting any inter­ested walk-ons.

Those interested should call Averill at Ext. 5859 for participating in the Aug. 25 tryou~s. · - - ·

BY MIKE FITZGERALD

SPORTS EDITOR

Football season is just around the comer and coach Bill Dooley and his staff are hard at work, hoping to im­prove on last season's 3-8 record.

The team began practic­ing in pads Tuesday, al­though the freshmen arrived last week.

After working with the group, Dooley says the fresh­men could see playing time and possibly fight for start­ing roles.

"When we recruited this group it looked like a good, solid group," Dooley said. "After looking at them, they're even better than I expected."

Dooley called Rusty LaRue "an excellent quar­terback prospect" . and said John Lewis, Sherron Gudger and LaDwaun Harrison will all bring needed help at run­ning back.

Despite the loss of run­ning back Anthony Wil­liams, the Demon Deacons return most of their key per­sonnel. Quarterback Keith West will lead the offense again, and he will return his
