C.-W h e football gets into full swing, cat basketball be far behind? Atlanti< Coast C o n f e r e n c e basketbal coaches blew the whistle to opei practice on Tuesday, Oct. 15t] and the long (lays of the seasoi begin. Taking a look at the teams b; their finish a year ago: NORTH CAROLINA: Gone is Larry Miller, twice ACC Player of the Year and twice an All-America. Returning is the rest of the cast that carried Coach Dean Smith's team to the finals of the NCAA championships. C h a r li e Scott, Rusty C1ark, Bill Bunting and Dick Grubar are the starters who are back. Joe Brown and Ed Fog ler were top reserves in '68. Lee Dedmon, a 6-10 forward, will add more defense, but the 'Heels will miss Miller's scoring. D U K E : Mike Lewis was th ACC's top rebounder and one o the top three in scoring. He wil be difficult to replace. Gone als are starters Joe Kennedy and Roi Wendelin. Back is guard D a v Golden, a long-range shooter, an forward S t e v e Vandenberg. U1 from a promising frosh group ar center Randy Denton (6-10, 250) guards Dick Devinzio and Bra Evans and forward Rick Kather man. All could start so the Blu )evils will have a new look fo this winter, Vic Bubas' 10th seasoi as head coach. Warren Chapmar out with a bad knee in '68, couli add a lot to the Devil offense. SOUTH CAROLINA: Coach Frank McGuire is faced with re placing four s t a r t e r s. All-ACC guard Skip Hlarlicka, playmaker Jack Thompson, forwards G a r y (;regor and Frank Standard are all gone. Only Bob Cremins returns. But the story may he that there is ability among the rising sophs. John Ribock (6-8) and Tom Owens (6-10) will help up front, while John Roche and Billy Walsh will move into the back court. Thal leaves Cremins where he was lasi year, as a swing man between froni and back court, and that is whal he does best. But four sophs is i ERRY IS on main 24 RICHLAND A a. b.

But I he does have guard Dick Braucher, I forwards Joe Serdick and Bill May redes and swing man Nelson Isley , returning. Vann Williford was the Pack center and a good one, and he is back. VIRGINIA: The best news that Bill Gibson has heard is that Chip Case's knee has healed. Case is a scoring guard or forward who will fit in well with returnees Norm Carmichael, Mike Wilkes and Tony Kin. le will more than make up for the losw of Mike Katos, as will Buddy Reams, out last year with sickness. Reams was the Cav's best rebounder in '67. MARYLAND: Coach F r a n k Fellows enters year number two and he has three starters return. ing: Will Hetzel at forward and Pete Johnson and Tom Milroy at guard. Rod Horst saw action at center a year ago and may start there. The Terps had trouble with their shooting last year, hitting less than 40 percent from the floor. If they get their eye and increase their rebounding capacity, t h c y will be a very tough team. CLEMSON: The top two Tiger r players return for coach Bobby Roberts. Butch Zatezalo wap the ACC'S top scorer with a 23-point average as a soph. He is a quick guard with a good assortment of shots. Richie Mehaffey was the Tigers' top rebomnder and a good scorer. WAKE FOREST: Coach J a ck McCloskey may have reason to look for major improvement in all areas of play and the reason will be sophomores Gilbert MacGregor and Charlie Davis. MacGregor is the rehounder that the Deacons have lacked for two seasons while Davis is a scoring guard. Add J e r r y Montgomery and a full complement of lettermen including high scorer Dickie Walker and the Deacs may make a strong move for the first division.
