Board adopts resolution

Juggler Ken Haye had a mouthful as he"'enterlaine? some of the 20,000 people who attended Saturday's Durham Street Arts Festival.

Special committee studies Trinity academic structure

By Daniel Bogart A Special Committee

on Educational Policy and Programs in Trinity College was recently created for the purpose of re-evaluating the Trinity academic structure, in an attempt to improve the liberal arts education at Duke.

Though other committ­ees have recently propo­sed changes in Trinity academics, particularly in curriculum revision, these changes would occur within the present system. This new com­mittee will include the much broader task of looking at the system itself — the three division set-up — and proposing changes where it feels necessary.

The committee, accord­ing to Peter Burian, professor of Classical Studies, "will report to the U n d e r g r a d u a t e Faculty Committee on A r t s a n d S c i e n c e s (UFCAS) and also to the Provost, which is some­what u n u s u a l . The reason is that the Provost felt that some matters might fall under direct j u r i s d i c t i o n of t he a d m i n i s t r a t i o n , but matters of curriculum, for example, are clearly the province of UFCAS."

The committee is composed of ten faculty members as well as three ASDU-appointed student members and one student alternate. Re-evaluating the three division set-up and curriculum will be

only part of its responsi­bilities.

It will be concerned with encouraging an a t m o s p h e r e among Trinity College students which would "help foster more expression and exchange of ideas," as well as helping the "promotion of academic excellence," said Bruce Wardropper, Professor of Romance Languages and Chairman of the Com-mitee.

Parish ministry helps graduate students find themselves By Tina Nicolaides

So, you are a graduate student at Duke. Who else are you?

That question served as the point of departure for a new organization of graduate and professional students who, will hold their second meeting on October 15. The group's monthly meetings consist of guest lecturers and discussion.

The group, sponsored in part by the Duke University Parish Ministry, developed from the common feeling among graduate students that they had no niche in Duke's Chrisitian Community,

Possible Carter, Breshnev confrontation

SALT summit possible By David Binder © 1978 NYT News Service

WASHINGTON - The Soviet-United Sta tes negotiations on a new a g r e e m e n t to l imi t s t ra tegic arms have reached the stage where the two sides are discuss­ing a possible summit meeting between Presi­dent Carter and Soviet P r e s iden t Leonid I. Brezhnev by the end ofthe year, American officials said Sunday,

However, Secretary of State Cyrus R. Vance and Soviet Foreign Minister Andrei A. Gromyko said at the conclusion of their latest round of talks that they would have to meet again in Moscow, proba­bly in the third week of October, to resolve remaining issues.

Both men spoke of this round of negotiations as "intensive and useful." They made their remarks to newsmen in the lobby of the State Department building following a session that lasted two and one half hours.

They had started the round Wednesday in New York and had continued through Thursday for over six hours, with delegations and special­ists attending on both sides. Then the two foreign ministers spent about five hours Saturday with President Carter, including a working lunch at the White House. This made a total of 14 hours of negotiating over the last five days , the most thorough since the talks began in March 1977.

Completion Vance said Sunday he

felt there had been "constructive movement" in the latest round, a view Gromyko affirmed.

"Obviously we haven't concluded agreement on all the issues," Vance said after waving goodbye to Gromyko, who drove off in a limousine to prepare for flying back to Moscow Sunday afternoon. But he said that the American side hoped to "pick up and see if we can complete agreement" in Moscow in the second half of the month.

No date can be set, Vance said, until the two foreign ministers consult their ca lendars . His "guess" was that it would be in the third week of October.

Asked whether a Carter-Brezhnev summit confer­ence had been discussed, the American secretary of state replied, "Yes."

To another question, he said he had not changed his expectat ion t h a t conclusion of a new nuclear arms-limitation agreement would be reached by the end of the year. The first agreement on strategic arms between the two countries, signed in 1972, expired five years later.

It was Gromyko's first visit to Washington since last May, when he spent several hours discussing treaty issues with Carter. Since then he and Vance had conferred once in Geneva, Switzer land, after which American officials said that in their opinion a new treaty was "95 percent complete."

But the remaining issues have been extreme­ly difficult, as both sides have acknowledged. They deal with treaty limita­tions for new missile systems on both sides; the question of how to match United States cruise missiles, which are still

u n d e r d e v e l o p m e n t , against multiple war­heads on Soviet missiles; and finally how to keep the Soviet Backfire bomber out ofthe category of strategic weapons.

Distraction There was also a pause

in the negotiations during the summer while both the Carter administrat ion and the Brezhnev govern­ment tried to sort out a series of often polemical disputes over treatment of Soviet dissidents, court t r i a l s of A m e r i c a n reporters and an Ameri­can bus inessman in Moscow and the treat­ment of spies in each country.

These disputes distrac­ted public and official a t t e n t i o n from the strategic-arms issues and actually delayed negotia­tions on a treaty, even though both sides ac­knowledge that the treaty is the centerpiece of Soviet-United S ta tes relations, conditioning the relations in all other areas of mutual interest between the two countries.

Prior to the current round of talks, United States and Soviet officials had spoken of a slight improvement in relations between the two super powers and at the beginning of last week, American participants in the arms talks said they viewed the latest round as being of critical impor­tance if a treaty were to be completed this year.

The absence of a final agreement this weekend may have been a disap­pointment to some of the negotiators, but it was also evident that both sides were determined to complete an agreement "at a very early date,"

Although it is unsure now what the recommendation will say, said Wardropper, it "would like to see the Dean bothered with "less distractions with petty matters and more con­cerns with curriculum matters."

T h e C o m m i t t e e ' s proposals will not affect

any of the students presently enrolled in Trinity, or those who will enroll within the next couple of years.

"As I understand it, the administration regards the catalogue as a kind of contract. Changes would affect only those students who enter the year that particular catalogue is used," said Burian.

Burian said that there will be many opportuni­

ties for all students and faculty to give them their opinions and ideas. After the study is completed, it will still have to be discussed and passed by UFCAS.

Wardropper does not anticipate severe pro­blems with the enactment of a new system. He cited the " s m o o t h " 1968 changeover to the present plan in support.

full board will not meet again until December.

"I cannot think of an instance in this century in which the trustees of a first-rate institution have brought direct pressure on the faculty for a curriculum decision," said Cartwrigt. "I think it happens in low-grade institutions with faculty that the president and trustees don't respect."

Cartwright said he "will be receptive to any curriculum proposal, expecially when it comes from a hard working, sound committee," referring to the UFCAS Curriculum Committee.

Alternative writing proposals would be "considered seriously" by UFCAS, sa id C a r t w r i g h t , who expects alternatives to come from the UFCAS Curriculum Committee."

Request considered Richard Walter, professor of physics

and c h a i r m a n of the UFCAS Curriculum Committee said his committee "would certainly consider the request of the president and trustees" at its meeting today.

Walter had no prior knowledge ofthe president's memorandum or the trustee resolution.

Walter said he did not expect the outcome ofthe vote on Thursday, and he "misread the faculty and their willingness to implement a writing proposal."

"It is unfortunate, but the writing proposal from the Curr iculum Committee had definite weaknesses which should be worked out before presentation again to the faculty for a vote."

Walter cited two major reasons for the rejection of the proposal:

•not enough faculty members are willing to undertake the additional responsibility of monitoring the writing of students without some type of compensation; and •not a large enough segment of the faculty is convinced that there is a need for a writing requirement.

There were "too many loose ends" in the proposal, said Walter. "We didn't spell out requirements in sufficient detail for courses that would serve for writing credit.

"We felt there was stronger support for introductory writing courses and felt guidelines could be worked out after the concept was put into place," he said.

"I feel the University needs strong UFCAS support for the concept of a writing course to succeed, since the faculty will be the ones implementing the requirement," Walter said.

Cartwright said he "would be surprised" if the trustees' resolution was not discussed at the UFCAS meeting Thursday.

Curriculum tightening The writing proposal rejected by

UFCAS was one of four proposals set forth by the UFCAS Curriculum Committee in an effort to tighten the undergraduate curriculum in Trinity College.

UFCAS has passed two of the committee's proposals, adding a "field of knowledge" requirements in history, lab science and literature to the current distr ibutional requirements, and limiting the number of courses a student can take in his or her major.

The proposals passed by UFCAS will go into effect in the fall of 1979 and apply to the CLass of 1983 and all subsequent

learning about laws in NC By G r a y Zaca ro l i

The award-winning Duke delegation of the North Carolina Student Legislature (NCSL) has two new feathers for its cap this yean two state officers, including the governor.

In past years the Duke delegation has been recognized by fellow NCSL'ers as outstanding. In 1976 Duke won the bill-of-the-year award for legislation its wrote concerning migrant labor.

Legislation: that 's what the NCSL is all about. Delegations from 29 North Carolina colleges and univers i t ies spend most of the school year

Feature researching and writing bills on various issues, this year including ecology, abortion reform, and drug education, according to Duke delegation chairman Brian Steele.

The delegations gather several times during the year to conduct official business and debate issues in the form of resolutions. But the climax of the year is the annual session held in Raleigh, a mock legislature where the bills are debated and voted on in a House and Senate.

The 41rst annual session, held last spring, was an important one for both the state orgnaization and Duke. This year marked a new respectability for the organization with a return to meeting in the state Capitol building. Although the NCSL originally met in the building, it was ousted some years ago after the passage of a particularly controversial resolution.

Two Duke s tuden t s were also elected to statewide positions at the meeting. John Ott, a sen ior a n d former c h a i r m a n of t he Duke delegation, was elected governor of NCSL. Steele was selected as statewide research coordinator and will oversee a position paper on inequities in the North Carolina public schools.

After this year's session, as every year, bills p a s s e d by the S t u d e n t L e g i s l a t u r e were presented to members of the North Carolina General Assembly. In 1976 North Carolina became the second state to pass euthanasia

This year the General Assembly is slated to consider migrant legislation, according to Ott, author of the award-winning migrant workers bill. The legislation considered this year will be very similar to that in his bill, Ott said. Ott has been working with var ious s ta te agencies dealing on the issue for the past two years.

NCSL i sn ' t jus t an errand-group for the

General Assembly. "The primary purpose is to teach students the legislative process of North Carolina while injecting their idealism into those processes," said Ott.

Ott and Steele maintain that the group is not a partisan one, although partisan factions do exist in the organization. NCSL focuses on policy and position rather than "partisan antics," they said.

Steele, who has been an ASDU legislator, feels NCSL has an advantage over groups such as ASDU because there is no overseeing power, such as the administrat ion of a college or university, to stifle activities.

Although 50 percent ofthe Duke delegation is from out-of-state, Ott and Steele said the Duke group is still representative. "Duke students live here for eight months of the year. They interact with the community here and keep up with the issues," Steele said.

Trustees authorize investments By Ginger Sasser

The University Board of Trustees, meeting Friday and Saturday, gave authorization to major policy proposals set forth by the Univer­sity administration, and discussed their changing role in a society faced with greater governmen­tal regula t ions and interference.

Emory and Jennifer Hillman, student trustee, asked the board to consider the environmen­tal inpact study of the expressway at the next full board meeting in December. University President Terry Sanford said it would probably need to be discussed at the board's Executive Committee meetings before then.

Hello, hello! Today is Monday, October 2, 1978. It is the first Monday in October, the day the U.S. Supreme Court convenes to begin making or breaking all the harrowing judicial decisions of the year.

It was on this day in 1905 that former President Grover Cleveland aligned himself with those who were opposed to giving women the right to vote. He wrote to the Ladies' Home Journal: "... We all know how much further women go than men in their social rivalries and jealousies. Responsible women do not want to vote. The relative positions to be assumed by man and woman in the working out of our civilization were assigned long ago by a higher intelligence than ours." God tried to change Grover's mind, but it just didn't work.

Sometimes sensible, but sometimes irrational, this is the Chronicle, where our sense of justice gives us "an eye for a lie and a tooth for the truth." Social rivalries and jealousies:, 684-3811. Higher intelligence: 684-2663.

To the edit council: I was pleasantly surprised on Thursday

September 28th to find that for the last five years ASDU has been providing loans to pregnant students so that they can have abortions. But is this enough?

Since the precedent has been set for ASDU funding the l i q u i d a t i o n of superfluous children of Duke students, why shouldn't this service be available to deal with other inconvenient relatives of our energetic Dookies? If a student is tired of being pressured into medical school by his mother, for example, our noble ASDU friends could provide the three hundred pieces of silver so that the student can have his unwanted parent converted to i n a n i m a t e m a t t e r j u s t l ike t h o s e embryonic children who are dropped like so much excrement onto sanitary steel trays at the ever eager Medical Center. I'm sure the demand exists.

Or does ASDU only fund the termina­tion of the lives of those unable to contribute financially to the Sacred Blue and White Abatoir?

Derisive To the edit council:

The Chronicle cont inues as the standard-bearer of shoddy journalism with its belated article on the spurning of five ministers from Rhodesia and South Africa by a divinity school faculty member. Douglass Davidoff, the author of the article, could not wait to appeal to the biases of his liberal readership by casting aspersions on this group of clergymen, saying tha t they were "reportedly" s u p p o r t d by the w h i t e m i n o r i t y governments of South Africa and Rhodesia. Mr. Davidoff would do well to gather some facts before beginning to make such statements. This kind of irresponsible journalism makes the Chronicle what it is today.

The headline to the article says that the Durham Morning Herald exaggerated the incident. In what way did the Herald exaggerate the story? If one disregards the prejudiced statements in the Chronicle, one will find that it says essentially the same thing as the Herald. The facts remain that certain elements did not wish the views of these five men to be heard, so they pressured Prof. Paul Mickey into wi thdrawing the inv i ta t ion to the ministers. Mickey, wishing to avoid an "unpleasant situation," acted as a craven in yielding to the pressures from these opponents of liberty.

Among those who coerced Mickey was Jed Griswold, a divinity student. A totalitarian thinker, Mr. Griswold did not want the views, which he thinks these men hold, to be aired. Mr. Griswold indicated that he "thought" these ministers were looking for a forum for propaganda, though he does not state for what cause they were propagandizing. I don't know what sort of ministry Griswold is training for, but I think he would be well suited for a government job in the Soviet Union or Uganda.

This whole incident is indicative ofthe pusillanimity of the liberal Protestant e s t a b l i s h m e n t . Af ra id to offend totalitarian leftists, pastoral poltroons, like Mickey, yield to the pressures of these

militants. Similar actions have made shams of a lmost all the mainl ine Protestant churches. Protestant divines are more concerned with funding terrorists than with preaching the Gospel or with aiding the poor and afflicted, I suggest that Mickey and his colleagues do a bit of "searching" in Scripture, in the hope that they might arrive at a truer notion of the role of the Church in the world.

Pensive To the edit council:

Judging from the opposition to the visit ofthe ministers from Rhodesia and South Africa and its cancellation, it is apparent' that some of those persons who are so zealous to promote liberty in those countries are not as scrupulous about its exercise on this university campus.

Decisive To the edit council:

William Raspberry's column, "The State Competency Exam" confuses the issue of racial bias with oppression of Black, white working class and Indian youth by the state educational system. The Black Baptist churches of Wake County have stated strongly and correctly that the competency test will, and is meant to, drastically reduce the number of Black students entering colleges and will doom them to only the most menial of jobs, thereby fulfilling Gov. Jim Hunt's promise to migrating industry that North Carolina will provide "cheap labor". With only 15% of Black students passing the test, the effect on black colleges and North Carolina industry will be overwhelming. The damage done to students from white

LETTERS" working class and Indian families is equally as horrible, with failure rates also approximately 80%.

We commend the Baptists for their insight and courage. The test is not designed to provide quality education— the remedial aid is a pittance that the head of the testing program himself has stated is equivalent to giving those who fail a "bouquet of flowers". At the same time the test will provoke the dropping out of thousands of students before graduating, as an alternative to failing the test.

To say that the test is "racially inspired" does not mean solely that the test questions are racially biased. This phrase also points to the years of inferior education given to Black children in the state, preventing their passing the test. More than anything, the test results reveal the worse educational experience of Black, white working class and Indian students. Then it punishes them for it!

It is a shame that while the Black Baptists as a whole understand and unqualifiedly condemn the test as being not in the interest of quality education or the future of Black students, Rev. Lewis, the moderator of the district association, waffles and denies that the state of North Carolina knows what it is doing by giving

Page 7: The Chronicle - OCLC

and standard bearers the test. He is responding to the tremendous pressure being put on Black leaders by the press, state, and industry. We applaud his assessment that it is the certificate of attendance that makes this test so objectionable, and we are glad that he wishes to have the test postponed.

But we must all understand that there is a purpose to the test, that it serves the political and economic needs of the Hunt administration as it represents big businss, that it does not serve education. We join with the Wake County Black Baptists in calling for an end to the test!

Secretive To the edit council:

After reading Davia Odell's stirring rendition of the dramat ic decision regarding the filming Animal House at Duke University, I suffered sudden and frequent pangs of conscience, (occurring at three minute intervals). I have decided to come out of my closet (where they keep all of us high-level administrators) and reveal the sordid tale.

It was a dark and stormy night, and I was busy drawing decision trees when John Belushi peered in my window. Just at that moment the telephone rang, and a mysterious voice summoned me to a double-secret midnight meeting in the catacombs of Duke Chapel. I immediately grabbed my coat and stumbled over the corpse of a white horse. Anyway, when I arrived at the Chapel, two voices beckoned me further into darkness. They were already deep into discussion....

"Funniest (expletive deleted) thing I ever read, J.B." Something about that voice sounded familiar.

"Didn't you used to have a dog named Checkers?" I inquired.

"To the best of my recollection, at one point in time, perhaps," said R.M.N.

The third conspirator, who looked rather stoned and was flat on his back, said with 3 ghastly voice, Animal House will be filmed here only over my dead body."

That seemed to resolve the matter. R-M.N. concurred, explaining that togas are posse in San Clemente. I, being only a lowly ASDU rep, immediately rubber stamped th is decision ra the r t han jeopardize my admittance to law school.

So you see, the man who made the school made the decision. If you don't like it, you can go to...Carolina.

Faithfully yours, Herbert Schlabonskawicz

is threatening the economy of North Carolina.

In 1969, cash income from tobacco in N.C. agriculture was $516 million, 36 per cent more than income from all other crops combined. In 1967, North Carolina industry produced tobacco products valued at $2.3 billion. The later figures are higher.

With one ofthe lowest per capita income rates in the country, many North Carolinians rely on tobacco to supplement their already meager incomes. Many small farmers in North Carolina are able to stay in business primarily because of tobacco. Unless another crop of equal value is found, to eliminate tobacco would place a great hardship on many farmers, not to mention the many workers in the" tobacco industry.

Unless HEW wants a lot more North Carolinians on the welfare rolls, they would be well advised to produce some economic alternative to tobacco before attempting to counter its production.

N.C.'s competency test: remedial aid or cultural bias?

By Bob Roberts On November 2 North Carolina

eleventh-graders will take the state's first competency test.

This test has been instituted with a growing national trend toward ensuring that students receiving high school diplomas have attained minimal skills in reading and math.

Opinions about the benefits ofthe test are varied. Views include the belief that the test has an inherent cultural bias and faith that only such a test can push otherwise disinterested students to their academic limit.

Conflicts have emerged about the design of the test. Charles Finch, head of the Durham Coalition for Quality Education, said that "the whole test is a diversion tactic designed to decrease the number of diplomas, thereby increasing the amount of cheap labor." He pointed to the fact that 86% of the studnents coming from families with yearly incomes less than $15,000 scored lower than the 70% percentile.

"A lot of media have portrayed the test as a black issue. It is instead a cultural issue," Frank Yeager, said superintendent of Durham County schools. "No one denies tha t achievement is related to socio­economic standing. That doesn't mean we should have low standards to accommodate these people but should raise their level of performance, not lower the others."

Proponents of the test, such as James G a l l a g h e r , c h a i r m a n of the Competency Testing Commission, described it as "a remedial educational program rather than a testing system" and pointed to the $4.4 million already allocated for remedial programs. Yeager, also a supporter, believes that the testing will "eliminate the social and political pressures that, over the years, have caused teachers to lower standards and expectations." He added, "the 70th percentile is the standard decided upon by Florida. That does not mean that North Carolina will

have the same standard." Ann Flowers, chairwoman of the

Duke Department of Education, said, "If the tests are designed to give students incentive, I would not favor them. If their intent is to diagnose weaknesses, they should be given earlier."

Although testing programs for the first, second, third, and sixth grades are also being established, there is presently no intent to hold back students who perform unfavorably.

The quality of this specific test, which is produced by CTB McGraw Hill, a Californian corporation, has also been under attack. Finch said, "Teachers at some Durham schools have said that some of the material on the test is not standardly taught to high-schoolers."

Yeager denied such a viewpoint, "Although McGraw Hill produced the test, some questions were removed and others substituted due to the biases of an urban, suburban, etc. nature."

The timing of the test is another argued point. Many believe that it should be delayed so that the class now entering school — the first grade — would be the first to be given the test and, therfore would be forewarned. South Carolina favors such thinking and is planning to give the test in 1991.

Several other problems are brought to mind when considering competency testing. The Durham Morning Herald quoted one student as saying that several of her friends has alreayd decided to drop out to avoid the test.

There is concern that raising the standards, as competency testing will do, may not increase learning. Flowers said, "The existence of such a standard could result in teaching for the test, rather than for learning."

Even if the test is not instituted, something should be done, Yeager said. Simply increasing the resources is not the answer. "Only part ofthe problem is resources. The large remainder is that students are not expected to perform well and therefore don't."

...Trustees Continued from page 5

invested approximately $10 million in four different corporations in an effort to get a larger return on investments.

Expressed concern Several members ofthe

board expressed concern over the "safety" of the investments and asked the University "move more cautiously."

Sanford said the committee is still fiscally conservative but must look into investment possibilities outside of common stocks.

"We can't stay with the standard approach and only get a two and one-half percent return on our investments. If we can earn a twenty percent return, it's our obligation,

and we're irresponsible if we don't."

Charles B. Huestis, vice-president for busi­n e s s and f i n a n c e , reassured the board that the four organizations the committee is dealing with are "set organiza­tions that have not just been launched."

Advisory council In other business,

Alexander McMahon, chairman of the board, discussed the changing role of a University t rus t ee . The board delegated the task of examining the board's responsibilities to the p r e s i d e n t and t h e chancellor, with the chairmen of the standing committees of the board acting as an advisory council.

"We should be the antenna for the Univer­sity and not just react to issues," said trustee Elizabeth Hanford Dole. "Our meetings should be an opportunity for input td make constructive changes."

The board approved a resolution setting up an organization of Presi­dent's Associates "to assume the same general responsibilities of the development of Duke" as the president.

The group of approxi­mately 80 t rustees , alumni and other persons interested in Duke will "attract major financial support for the Univer­sity through individual as well as foundation and corporate con tac t s , " according to the resolu­tion.

Photo by Scott McPherson Duke sophomore Richard Murray was not enough to lead the Blue Devils over Clemson on Friday.

By Bart Pachino Friday was "Bring Your

The loss snapped a five game winning streak for the Devils as their record dipped to 5-2, 0-1 in the ACC. Clemson is now 6-0 for the season, 1-0 in the ACC.

who scored the game's only goal, are native Africans on scholarship.

Nowokocha's goal came with 25:07 elapsed in the f irs t half. Fo rward Damian Ogunsuyi spotted Nawokocha open on the left wing. Nowokocka collected the ball, side­stepped a Duke defender, deked a round Peter Wainwright, and drilled the ball into the open net for what proved to be the game winner.

The Devils were clearly outplayed by Clemson, registering only 10 shots on goal as opposed to 22 for the Tigers. Yet, Duke was able to keep the contest close primarily due to the fine play of netminder Wainwright. The Durham senior, who has now allowed only one goal iu his last four starts, made 15 saves, including at least five of the spectacular variety.

Wainwright robbed Nowokocha and Agun-suyi twice apiece with diving stops and took away what appeared to be a sure goal for Marwan Kamaruddin midway through the second half, when he leaped just high enough to knock the ball over the crossbar.

Playing without for­

ward Edwin Agyapong, the Devil's lone African (Ghana), the Duke offense sputtered badly. Agya­pong is out for "probably a few weeks due to a torn ligament in the knee," according to John Wilson, Duke coach. His speed was sorely missed as the Devils had a difficult time moving the ball past midfield.

Wilson was relatively pleased with the perform­ance of his booters. "It's a familiar story. We could have beaten them, but we were a bit too apprehen­sive on offense when we had our chances."

The coach also praised the play of freshman sweeperback Chris Sturdy and sophomore halfback Wayne Bergen. Sturdy, as the sweeperback and last defender before the goalkeeper, thwar ted several Tiger attacks and Bergen handled the ball well in the midfield.

Wilson added t ha t Wainwright "kept us in the ballgame. But, we could have had them. They (Clemson) are not quite as good this year as they usually are."

Wolverines pounce on Blue Devils, 52-0 By Ed Turlington

ANN ARBOR, Michigan — Playing before a capacity crowd of 104,832, Duke was soundly defeated by third-ranked Michigan 52-0 here on Saturday. The defeat was one of the worst ever for a Duke team, second only to a 64-0 loss to Notre Dame in 1966. The Wolverines dominated the line of scrimmage from their first possession, amassing 478 yards in total offense to only 76 for Duke.

Although Duke won the opening toss,

they were unable to move and Michigan took over at midfield. From there, they marched in for a touchdown in 11 plays. The drive, which lasted over five minutes, was culminated by Russell Davis' one-yard plunge on fourth and goal. Gregg Wilner added the extra point and the Wolverines led 7-0.

Michigan regained the ball after the Blue Devils were again unable to sustain a drive. Behind the running of tailback Harlan Huckleby, they moved in for their second touchdown on a 15-play, 81-yard march that ate seven minutes off the clock. After the extra point, the Wolverines lead 14-0.

Fumble costs On Duke's next possession, quarter­

back Mike Dunn faded to pass deep in his own territory. But, he and tailback Gregg Rhett brushed against each other and the ball squirted onto the artificial turf. Michigan pounced on it at the one-yard line. Huckleby scored on the next play and boosted the Michigan lead to 21-0.

After the kickoff, Duke sustained their best offensive effort of the day. Behind the running of freshman tailback Bobby Brower, the Blue Devils moved from their own 19 to the Michigan 39. But, Dunn slipped behind the line while trying to pass on third down and Ricky Brummitt had to come on to punt.

The last Michigan score of the first half was a 35-yard field goal by Willner. They had regained the ball after a Blue Devil receiver fell down and a Dunn pass was nabbed by a Wolverine defender at the Duke 38. Michigan led at the break 24-0.

their back in the fourth quarter. But, the Blue Devils were again unable to move and had to punt.

After two long Rick Leach runs, Huckleby scored on a two-yard run with 9:42 left in the third quarter to make the score 31-0. The rout was on.

Musical quarterbacks Bo Schembechler, Michigan coach,

put in his second team quarterback B.J. Dickey, midway through the quarter, but the Wolverines still continued to move. They added three more scores before the end ofthe contest, making the final tally a one-sided total.

"Michigan is a great football team," said a disappointed Mike McGee, Duke coach. He added, "They clearly confirmed they are better than they were a year ago. Our inability to sustain blocks and our errors made it a very poor day for us."

Not so good Schembechler was naturally pleased

with the win, but refused to insult the

defeated opponents. "We're not that good and Duke is not that bad. We were just able to control the game at the line of scrimmage."

Dunn, who had perhaps his most frustrating day as a Blue Devil, said "We can only try to forget. With our mistakes, we played right into their hands. We never could get untracked and I guess they really showed us what Big Ten football is all about."

Leach, an All-American and Heisman Trophy candidate said "We kept pounding them today since our offensive line was doing a real good job."

Duke, now 2-1, must regroup before facing Virginia in their first ACC battle of the year. But, here on Saturday, the Blue Devils could not forget what had just occurred. As McGee said "Hopeful­ly, we can profit from our mistakes, but we will probably never forget a humiliating experience like this." And as he must have also thought, hopefully, it will never happen again.

without a loss to 31, was pleased with his unit's-winning effort, saying, "We played with a lot of guts. We fought real hard. We weren't as prolific as usual, but we played well tactically. We play to win, not to please, and we'll take 1-0 games every time out."

The possessor of a lifetime 135-32-7 coaching

mark, Ibrahim praised the Duke effort, saying, "They are vastly improved over the last year. They were up for the game. They had a lotta guts and a lotta defense. We should have been able to beat them worse, but their goalie (Wainwright) kept them in it."

Off the beaten path-

It's only a game? Jim Mazur

"We are expected to blow out every team we play."

Rick Leach, Michigan quarterback, after the Duke game

ANN ARBOR, Michigan — Last year when the Blue Devils lost to Michigan 21-9 in Ann Arbor, it was considered a moral victory of sorts for Duke. Wolverine fans, however, were upset over their team's performance or lack of it.

A Michigan football fan is so used to supremacy that a close victory over anybody is considered a sham. Possibly a traumatic experience.

What causes the difference between

teams like Duke, which are satisfied with just a win, and teams like Michigan, which are satisfied only with a "run up the score" victory? While there is no exact answer, a trip to Ann Arbor is necessary for anyone outside the spectrum of Wolverine football to comprehend the difference in perspectives that separate Michigan from most of its opponents.

Football at Michigan is considered more than a sport; more than a Saturday afternoon diversion. It is an obsession and even a religion to some in Ann Arbor.

traditionally one of the toughest conferences in college football. And this is Michigan, traditionally the best team in the Big Ten. Moreover, this is Ann Arbor, a town that eats, sleeps and drinks football all year long.

A walk through Ann Arbor during a pre-game hype (which lasts all week) is a unique and unforgettable experience. On the main drag, there are numerous book stores and other Wolverine outlets. The barber shop covers its patrons with a blue and yellow smock displaying a huge "M."

Kinky clothes Stores sell the usual Wolverine

jackets, shirts, ties, socks, cufflinks, p a r k a s , cups , d i shes and Bo Schembechler inflatable dolls. They also feature nifty bedtime slogans like "Go Wolverines," "Woody [Hayes] is a pecker," and "Final UPI poll — (1) Michigan (2) sex (3) Ohio State."

There are so many stores and they all do a brisk business.

Tickets, as can be expected, are scarce and there are hawkers, scalpers and

other assorted major loons dotting the street corners.

The media blitzes the public with unusually detailed coverage attempting to satisfy the panting, salivating Wolverine fan who needs a fix of sorts to make it until Saturday.

Perhaps this hysteria would have been more intense had the opponent been Ohio State, but one senses that this carnival atmosphere exists for each and every opponent. A blowout is expected and nothing else will be tolerated.

Friday night a press party was given by the Michigan alumni. It was a stylish affair which saw the master of ceremonies, a Michigan alumni leader, expound upon the virtues of Michigan football for close to an hour. He recognized just about everyone in attendance and the superlatives got so carried away that he even mentioned the Chronicle.

To a Wolverine alummus, there is no boredom at these weekly cocktail parties. Each week they think of new

ways to pat each other on the back. The activities prior to the game

resembled a Barnum and Bailey circus, freak show included, but on a much grander scale. Vendors sell more items that • the Sears mail-order catalogue. A plane flies overhead with a banner exclaiming "To hell with the Blue Devils."

A congressional candidate greats people entering gate eight. Not a bad place to gather votes, when one considers that there will be close to 104,000 people in attendance. It is scary knowing one could run through his hometown and gather everyone in the stadium and still have the place only ten percent full.

Abusive students While the stadium is huge, it is not

really intimidating. The students and fans are abusive. If Art Chansky thinks Duke fans are offensive, he would condemn the Michigan student body for their reverberating "bull-shit" cheer,

perhaps punishing them with a year's subscription to "The PoopSheet." Better yet, make it a two-year subscription.

The marching band is nationally known and they sell their own program. They almost give as many scholarships to the band as they give at Duke for football.

Then there is the game itself. At this point, one wonders if there actually is a game scheduled or if this is just a drill. Typical to any hyped event, the outcome is usually a letdown.

Duke got beat and they got beat bad. Murphy's law ("All that can go wrong, will go wrong.") was painfully evident. The fans were drooling as Bo and his cronies ran up the score to better their ranking in the national polls. It was a humiliating loss for Duke but a little humility never hurt anyone. Hopefully, the Devils will benefit from the mistakes they made in Ann Arbor .

Meanwhile, the glutted Michigan fan is just about ready to prepare for the next game. Life in Ann Arbor goes on.

Stickers take three By Dave Fassett

Will anyone ever score on the Blue Devils? Obviously it's not the football team, but those streaking Duke field hockey girls, who continued their season long shut out streak while upping their record to 5-0 over the weekend with a pair of whitewashes over Wake Forest (4-0) and Roanoke (3-0).

The J.V.'s also notched a victory blanking Salem 6-0. The Blue Devil stickers have now played over 450 minutes, or 7 full games, of shut out hockey.

Duke jumped on top of Wake Forest last Friday in the first half when Deidra Duffy, the squad's leading scorer, lifted a beautiful scoop shot from 10 yards out into the upper corner of the goal. From there on it was all Blue Devils, as Duffy, Mary Margaret Graham and Jane Creamer all added second half scores to put the contest out of reach.

The late barrage prompted Cathy Ennis, head coach, to later say "we're becoming a second half team, pressing and tiring our opponents in the first and then rushing the goal after the half.

However, Wake Fores t played sporadically and couldn't keep any momentum."

There was none of that the next day, however, as Roanoke, a team sporting a new coach and obviously improved basic skills, gave Duke all they could handle for most of the contest. A Nancy Pivorotto goal gave the Devils a slight advantage at the half, and second-period scores by Creamer, and Pivorotto nailed down the victory.

Once again, Ennis noted a strong second half, mentioning, that Roanoke was "mentally-tired towards the end of the match."

As far as the J.V.'s go, their blowout of Salem was decided in the first 1:30 on a pair of quick scores. Christina Braun drilled two goals to lead the team to their second win in as many games.

Duke travels next tomorrow to face UNC-Greensboro in an important contest for seedings in the upcoming NCAIAW Tournament, a tourney that the Blue Devils certainly don't want to be "shut out" of.
