  • The^stern Carolinian The Voice of the Students 16 PAGES THURSDAY MARCH 8,1979 Vol. XLIV, No. 24 CULLOWHEE, N.C. Cats couldn't pull off miracle: fall to ASU Bubble bursts in semis by STEVE SURLES Sports Editor WCU bidding for a major upset in its first trip to the SC tournament semi-finals in Roanoke, VA., ran out of gas in the second half, falling to regular season champion Appalachian State 65-43 Saturday afternoon. The game was the second in the semi-final doubleheader in the Roanoke Civic Center, with Furman defeating The Citadel 105-94 earlier in the day. WCU, in its second year of Conference play, trailed by only one at the half, 27-26, on ASU freshman John Fitch's 20 footer with two seconds left in the half. WCU had led by four, 26-22, with 3:28 left on Ray Person's bank shot. There were nine lead changes in the deliberately played first half with ASU taking only 17 shots, making 10 of them. Thirty-five seconds into the last half Terry Rutherford hit from the top ot the key to give WCU their last lead 28-27. ASU then began taking the game from the Cats, largely through their innovative zone defense, using center Mel Hubbard to clog the lanes. WCU went stone cold from then on, hitting only seven of 28 from the floor, with only 17 second half points. The Cats did cut the margin to two, 38-36 with 11:23 left on Person's three point play, but the Apps went on a tear, outscoring Western 20-5 the next ten minutes of playing time. ASU was led by 15 points from Renaldo Lawrence. 14 from Darryl Robinson largely on 10 of 12 free throws, and 12 pints, 11 rebounds from Hubbard. WCU was led by 16 points from Person. WCU, plagued by poor shooting, hit only 18 of 54 from the floor, for 33 percent and a poor 7-16 from the foul line. ASU was 20 of 35 from the floor for 5 percent 25 of 34 downthe line in the contest. It marked the 10th consecutive victory for the Mountaineers. WCU ended their season 14-14, after finishing only 7-19 the year before. ASU, with the win, met the Furman Palladins. the defending Southern Conference champions, Sunday for the championship. Furman, on the strength of 33 points and 16 rebounds from Jonathan Moore, 26 points from Ronald White, and 25 from Al Daniel, battled the fiestv Bulldogs from the Citadel into the final minutes to earn the victory. Furman's appearance in the final championship game was their fifth in the last seven years. After a close first half, ASU pulled out to a 40-34 at the buzzer on a tap by Charles Payton. The Mountaineers led by as much as 17, 71-54, with 6:29 left. Furman then began a furious comeback, battling to within two, 85-83, with two seconds left. The Paladins were assessed a technical for calling too many timeouts, with senior guard Darryl Robinson canning the last point. Robinson, the tournament MVP, led the App effort with 26 points, while canning several vital one and one free throws in the final 2:30. The 86-83 victory was the first Southern Conference basketball championship for ASU since their admission to the league in 1971. They advanced with the win to the Mid-East regional to play at-large selection and regular season South Eastern Conference champion Louisiana State. Photo by E.S. McDaniel Terry Rutherford goes up for two in a losing cause against Southern Conference foe Appalachian State University. Western did finish a surprising fourth in the conference, showing fans and other schools alike that the school does indeed have basketball potential. Spring break: students invade Florida "Getaway day" isn't far away for thousands of winter-weary students who are ready for the world's biggest annual college party — spring break at Daytona Beach. In March, as many as 250,000 college students invade this college vacation spot, and you may want to join them when you hear what's going on. Why Daytona? For one thing, it's 150 miles closer than other Florida beach resorts. For another, it has the world's longest white sand beach (23 miles), totally taken over by students during March. Besides the beach and the bar scene, Daytona now offers a festival of freebie entertainment and giveaways, especially for collegians. It's all at a big student exposition called "Expo America." The show runs March 16-20 at a hall right in the center of Daytona Beach. What's in it for students? During the day, special events on the beach and at big hotels will add to the usual activities. These include races, sports, fashion shows, and contests—for cash prizes and merchandise. At night, sponsored rock performances, concerts, discos and parties are the perfect place to meet friends and enjoy. The most glamorous event during "Expo America" is the March 19 advance preview for students only of what promises to be 1979's hottest new movie, "Hair." It's a special one-night-only showing for Daytona, just days after the world premiere in New York, Los Angeles and Washington. D.C. Tickets for the gala will be given away at the Toni exhibit during free daily drawings open to any student visiting the booth. At the Expo hall, companies that want to introduce their products to students will stage demonstrations, and hand out samples and souvenirs galore. Your may get a free Toni perm, taste a fancy new drink, receive a cosmetics "makeover," try out sports equipment, and so on. Check local posters and newspapers for details. If you want to go, but don't have a place to stay yet, don't give up. Just try to make plans for the first night with friends who have firm reservations. Bring your sleeping bag and ask around when you arrive. Other students are always anxious for extra roommates to help share the expenses. If you still don't have a ride, call WWCU's Ride Board, or as a last resort, major bus lines make frequent runs and Amtrak stops at Deland. just 30 miles away — not a bad rent-a-car or cab trip for a group. Students file for candidacies by DOUG BEAM Contributing Writer A flurry of activity marked the opening of filing dates for upcoming spring elections as seven students announced their candidacies and the Election Commission set election dates. Filing dates, which run from March 5-30, allow candidates to file for any one of the positions available on the ballot. These positions are president and vice president of the Student Government Association (SGA), editor and business manager of "The Western Carolinian", editor and business manager of the "Catamount," station manger of WWCU, and president and vice president of the University Center Board (UCB). There are also eight seats for commuter senators and one seat for an at-large senator to be filled. Seven candidates have placed filing notices in the SGA office. They are as follows by offices filed for: Roger McKinney, SGA president; Richard Sullins, SGA vice president; Ken Nifong, UCB president; Rebecca Lyn Finchum, UCB vice president; and Rebecca Nelson, at-large senator. Al Lagano and Mark Wilkins will oppose each other in the race for editor of "The Western Carolinian." Thus far. no students have filed for the other open positions. To be eligible to run, a candidate must be a regularly enrolled student and have a quality point ratio of 2.00 or higher. Candidates for editor of "The Western Carolinian" must also have at least six months of on-the-job experience. The seven-member Election Commission, which serves as a watchdog on election activities, met Tuesday afternoon and set April 10 as the election date for president and vice president of SGA. All other positions will be decided on April 17. SGA vice president Ben Travis, chairman of the election Commission, announced that Rebecca Nelson resigned from the Commission due to her candidacy for an at-large senate seat. Travis said a new member will be appointed in the near future. Students interested in seeking office in the spring elections must complete and turn in a filing notice to the SGA office, located in the University Center, by March 30. The SGA office is open from 8 a.m. until 5 p.m. on weekdays.
