Big Orange country . .
a littlesour
1HE FIRST THING one notices about Knoxville, Tennessee is
that everything, but everything is orange and white. Auto
dealers sell orange and white cars, the decor in hotel rooms is
your basic orange and even at McDonald's and Arby's the straws
are orange and white. When they say, "This is Big Orange Coun-
try," they mean it.
But despite all the hype, Big Orange country doesp't rate.
The city is tacky and the campus stresses the gauche.
Knoxville and the university is full of sex. Much like the strip-
per taunting an audience, the Tennessean love of sex and its
place in society is flaunted before the tourist's eyes. And what
better time to exhibit your wares than a NCAA meet.
Everywhere one turns in Knoxville, sexual come-ons are
prominent. On the back of the complimentary television guide
available at all major hotels is a full page ad for a massage par-
lor. "A New Dimension in MASSAGE" it screams, and, for the
interested but lost, there is a map.
The use of the feminine body to attract attention is not limit-
ed to the back of shabby TV magazines. The Knoxville papers
are fond of using scantily clad women as fillers.
On Friday the Knoxville Journal ran one picture sur-
rounded by print. Flanked by stories of a political spy trial
and prisoner of war releases was a picture of a beautiful girl
clad only in a skimpy bikini lying on an Australian beach.
Just to insure that the style rule was not violated, the paper
ran similar pictures on Saturday.
But the most blatant example of this tacky approach, came
during the swim meet itself. The opening ceremony of the Na-
tional Anthem was pure Americana, Tennessee-style. The colors
were presented by two orange-bikini clad girls in a canoe. They
were paddled to the center of the Student Aquatic Center pool
by a an dressed in a buckskin jacket and a raccoon hat. Deeply
moved by this spectacle of patriotism, the crowd, mostly Ten-
nesseans, belted out the anthem with the fervor of a revival
meeting.
Given the atmosphere of the city, it is not surprising that sex
is also a big part of the recruiting at Tennessee. Potential pros-
pects are often fixed up with one of the members of the Timettes;
a select group of about forty women chosen solely upon looks.
In the office of head coach Ray Bussard is a sign with a
letter from a former Volunteer swimmer. It has the picture
of a well-endowed girl ripping off her flimsy top with the en-
couraging statement "I hope this will be a small inspiration
to your team for the upcoming season.,,
When Knoxville is not flaunting bodies, it flaunts its wealth.
In swimming alone there are sixteen full rides a year for future
Vols. The entire campus is brand new, giving the place the air of
a collection of new Howard Johnson restaurants.
Much of the money is being poured into athletic programs.
A new dorm to house all the athletes was built within the last
two years as was the Aquatic Center where the meet was held.
The new pool cost four million dollars, all from student
funds, and much of it is a waste. The facility is a poor one
with the pool being too shallow and the stands too far away
from the action. The starting blocks are located under a con-
crete overhang and all too often swimmers bump their heads
against it.
The championship meet was run the same as the Ringling
Bros. Circus which was in town the same time. It was really
bush to introduce the home team separately from everyone else.
The Volunteers came charging out of a Big Orange T, replete
in raccoon hats and nummerals on the backs. No scorecards, just
numbers.
The public address announcer would work the partisan crowd
into a frenzy whenever a Vol was swimming, even if it was a
meaningless preliminary race. The Timettes went throughout
the crowd passing out . . you guessed it, big oranges.
There is little, if any, concern on the campus about educa-
tion. One reporter gave an apt evaluation of Tennessee, "First
comes girls, segond is sports, and last is education."
Somehow it seems that the NCAA could have found a better
place for its swimming showcase.,

You took my ball away, cries Larry Hollyfield to Larry Kenon (35), as Kenon took this rebound away
from Hollyfield. Despite Kenon's rebounding and 20 points, UCLA managed to pull this one out of the
fire last night, as they won 87-66.
