The food at the new Bryan Center Armadillo —TROUBLESOME Grill isn't quite worth the trip from the Main Quad. I BJP11 IEJC

enry Kissinger once observed of Latin American politics, "Very few Latin American presidents die Iin bed." While this may well be true, after a visit to Duke's newest Mexican eating establishment, I would conclude that a great many of them probably died while By Dana on the toilet. That is exactly where the Armadillo Grill will Vachon send you. A bit of dysentery, though, is not in itself a v. Il| $ great price to pay for good cuisine.

Tortillas, though made on the premises, are GATES OF HEUL Given the spiritless of most Mexican cuisine, the food at the similarly tasteless. Indeed, the Grill suffers from a lack of Armadillo Grill is surprisingly bland and featureless. creativity that taints nearly everything on the menu. Romaine lettuce might bring a flair of color and flavor to the tacos, but is passed up for iceberg, which brings nothing but crunch. Sunflower seeds would impart sweetness and romance to the soft taco shells, but are nowhere to be found. But there's more. The Grill even fails at the classic staples of Tex-Mex that one would expect to be aced.The retried beans might be seriously considered as material to re-stucco Stanford's main campus, but are suitable for little else. The anglicized guacamole is a great chance squan­ dered, longing for the Latin spice and heat that should tell a gringo to keep his side of the Rio Grande. One must wonder how, with splendid Southwestern cuisine being served across town at the Cosmic Cantina, the Armadillo Grill could approach this culinary task with such a dispas­ sionate palate. Where the Armadillo Grill gets its content straight it fails in presentation. A case in point is the salsa. It's fresh and lush, like early spring. Sadly, it sits in a large, open, sneeze-guarded vat for the better part of the day and night. Even the decor is a fumble, hearkening more to a coffee-house from the set of Friends than to anything Southwestern. In the end, the Armadillo Grill is useful only as a sort of very dense sorbet. If you want to "zero" your palate, and experience the taste of nothingness, then head straight for the Bryan Center and order anything on the menu. Otherwise your palate might be better gratified with raw tofu an

By contrast, Sunny Day Real Estate: Live, a recording of a show from this spring just From "Let the Dolphins Cry," which is already familiar to radio listeners, to the beautiful released by Sub Pop, comes off sounding uninspired, lacking that extra something that "Face and Ghost (The Children's Song)," fans will recognize Kowalczyk's piercing words was so present in the show I saw. This may be the result of a communication problem and the band's familiar song structures.

When N.C. State Has the Ball When Duke Has the Ball

N.C. State's rushing attack (108 ypg, ahead of only Duke has been unable to find a rhythm all season, as Duke) will get much-needed help with the return of evidenced by its anemic 68.3 yards per game and 2.2 Robinson, who missed the past two games with a yards per carry. QB Romine actually led the team in knee injury. The Wolfpack will also get help from the rushing last week with 43 yards. One plus for Duke: It other side of the ball, as Duke has given up more hasn't lost a fumble in four weeks, after losing four in than 160 yards rushing each of the past four weeks. the first two games.

This is the matchup Duke must exploit. Due to injuries Duke has many weapons in the passing game, as to both Wolfpack starters, N.C. State enters the game five separate receivers have led the Blue Devils in with freshmen receivers occupying the first three slots receiving in their first six games. Duke has finally on the depth chart. Duke's secondary is bolstered by been able to utilize this advantage with the return CB Lamar Grant, who had 16 tackles last week of Romine, who has thrown for 549 yards in two against Georgia Tech. games since his season-opening shoulder injury. Need a vacation? Then be a field goal kicker for the PK Sims Lenhardt is 12-of-14 in field goals and his Wolfpack. PK Kent Passingham has attempted (and two field goals per game average ties him for fourth made) only three field goals all year, from 22, 22, and •- c in the country. He has made 56 straight PAT's (three 30 yards out. Scottie Montgomery has been singled short of the school record). N.C. State has already out for praise by Franks for his kickoff returns this O) blocked five punts this season, good for 23 points, year, which have averaged 25.7 yards a return. but none in the last four games. Where did Torry Holt go? Holt needed only five catches to gain 175 yards and two touchdowns, helping the Wolfpack defeat Duke last year. His departure has left a hole at wide receiver so large that all the empty bleachers at Wally Wade could fit through it. While injuries to five N.C. State starters and an erratic year from Barnette have caused the Wolfpack offense to fall apart, the Duke offense has shown major improvement, thanks mostly to the return of Romine. Since halftime against Florida State, Duke has scored 78 points in five halves (compared to 35 points in its first seven halves). Expect the aerial offense to continue its ascent, especially because N.C. State gave up 514 yards in last week's 47-25 loss to Virginia. The chance of a winning record and a bowl invitation remains for another week. Duke 27, N.C. State 14. —Compiled by Harold Gutmann
