He also stands just as firm today with his decision then to scale back big-time basketball at North Carolina and N.C. State.</p><p>Friday, now 89, was president of the consolidated UNC system on May 14, 1961 - a Saturday morning - when he was called to an emergency Chapel Hill meeting on Franklin Street with Lester Chalmers, Wake County's district solicitor.</p><p>Chalmers informed Friday of evidence he found that implicated at least four N.C. State players and possibly two UNC players in the fixing of games, including at least one played in the Dixie Classic basketball tournament the previous December. </p> </div> <div id="story_embedded" class="grid_4"> <div class="focus_box"> <div class="container"> <div class="advertisement ts_pubsys_detail_story_1_content dart3" id="dart_300x250_bts_1"> <!-- templates/ads/dart_call.ett :start --><!-- templates/ads/dart3_render_adj.ett :start --> <script type="text/javascript"> <!-- if(typeof(miyahoo) == "undefined" || miyahoo.ads[mi_live_or_preview].dart.enabled){ document.write('<scr' + 'ipt type="text/javascript" src="https://web.archive.org/web/20110605083015/http://ad.doubleclick.net/adj/mi.nao00/Sports/College;atf=N;dcove=d;pl=story;sect=SCollege;pos=1;sz=300x250;tile=3;!c=news;pub=NewsObserver2;gender=;year=;income=;ord=881840047024934?" type="text/javascript"></scr' + 'ipt>'); } //--> </script> <noscript><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20110605083015/http://ad.doubleclick.net/jump/mi.nao00/Sports/College;atf=N;dcove=d;pl=story;sect=SCollege;pos=1;sz=300x250;tile=3;!c=news;pub=NewsObserver2;gender=;year=;income=;ord=881840047024934" target="_blank"><img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20110605083015im_/http://ad.doubleclick.net/ad/mi.nao00/Sports/College;atf=N;dcove=d;pl=story;sect=SCollege;pos=1;sz=300x250;tile=3;!c=news;pub=NewsObserver2;gender=;year=;income=;ord=881840047024934" border="0" alt="Advertisement"></a></noscript> <!-- templates/ads/dart3_render_adj.ett :end --> <!-- templates/ads/dart_call.ett :end --> </div><!-- /.advertisement ts_pubsys_detail_story_1_content --> <div class="advertisement ts_pubsys_detail_story_1_content yahoo" id="yahoo_300x250_ipbtf_1"> <script><!-- if(miyahoo.ads[mi_live_or_preview].yahoo.enabled){yld_mgr.place_ad_here("slot_3");} --></script> </div><!-- /.advertisement ts_pubsys_detail_story_1_content --> </div> </div> </div> <div id="story_text_remaining"> <p> Game-fixing, or point-shaving, involved gamblers who paid players to alter the point spread in games. Most times, a bribed player did not help determine a game's winner or loser. Rather, the player helped his team win or lose by a certain number of points. For instance, a player could easily let the man he was guarding score late in a game to ensure his team lost by more than, say, five points. Thus, the term point-shaving.</p><p>What struck Friday, and stays with him today, was Chalmers' description that a player's life had been threatened by gamblers. A gun was stuck in the belly of an N.C. State player after the outcome of one game was not to the gambler's liking, according to Friday.</p><p>"In our minds, we were dealing with protection of human life of an innocent college kid that, because he had exceptional skills, had gotten all his fame," Friday said last week. "Forces were preying upon these young men that were bigger than they could handle.</p><p>"You believe that threat to be real. That's what the difference was. I really did believe these [gamblers] would hurt these kids. That being said, you weren't left with any alternative."</p><p>Led by Friday's charge, the UNC system imposed numerous sanctions on both the North Carolina and N.C. State basketball programs and abolished the Dixie Classic, a popular tournament that ran for 12 Decembers before packed houses at Reynolds Coliseum in Raleigh.</p><p>The Dixie Classic was the brainchild of N.C. State coach Everett Case, who pitted the Big Four schools against four of the nation's top-caliber teams for the three-day event. The '58 event featured four top 10 teams, including No. 1-ranked and unbeaten Cincinnati led by All-American Oscar Robertson.</p><p>"It's like the State Fair, it's part of the people," former Wake Forest coach Bones McKinney once said.</p><p>In addition to canceling the Dixie Classic, the consolidated university presidents also reduced the schedules for UNC and N.C. State for the 1962 season to include 14 regular-season conference games and only two games outside the league instead of nine. Players at both schools were prohibited from participating in summer basketball leagues, and only two freshmen in the next recruiting class were allowed from outside the ACC area.</p><p>None of those restrictions had the impact of canceling the Dixie Classic, at least to fans of college basketball in North Carolina. Even the state's agriculture director, Jim Graham, voiced his displeasure to Friday about the decision.</p><p>But Friday's belief at the time was the Dixie Classic represented how college athletics was fast distancing itself from the university campus.</p><p>Friday regularly attended the Dixie Classic. Upon hearing that tickets for the annual event were being written into the wills of patrons, Friday had serious questions about the magnitude of the Classic.</p><p>"There was no Final Four in those days," Friday says now. "It was our Final Four in national attraction. There was just enormous pressure on the thing from top to bottom."</p><p>Those pressures finally erupted with the point-shaving scandal, which by 1962 had implicated 50 players from 25 schools across the country who fixed the outcomes of 54 games. Four N.C. State players and one at UNC were charged with bribery and granted immunity in Wake County Superior Court for testifying against the conspirators. The five were later indicted, convicted and given suspended sentences for fixing games in Durham County.</p><p>Six of the eight who paid players to shave points pleaded guilty in North Carolina to bribery and conspiracy charges and served time in prison. Dave Goldberg and Steve Lekometros went to trial in Wake County, were found guilty and both were handed two, five-year sentences. Both served 22 months in a North Carolina prison.</p><p>It all led to Friday and the UNC presidents attempting to bring basketball back into "educational perspective," which it did, at least temporarily. Today, Friday warns that college athletics is again operating on the fringe.</p><p>"These young players see coaches getting a couple of million dollars, and they see the huge profits that are turned in," Friday says. "Then they see expenditures and multimillion dollar buildings being built.</p><p>"[The players] are the reason for it. There wouldn't be all of this if it weren't for them. It's perfectly human to begin to say, 'Well, goodness gracious, we're the people left out when it comes to dividing up all the money.' "</p><p>Fifty years after the point-shaving scandal, and Friday still casts a wary eye toward the lurking evil of college athletics gone awry. </p> </div> <p> <a href="/web/20110605083015/http://www.newsobserver.com/breakingnews">Get the biggest news in your email or cellphone as it's happening.
