Alan MacNutt, director of public safety, said he couldn't comment on the identity of the individual allegedly involved because the case is a "continuing investigation." He also couldn't comment on the status of the investigation or whether police have caught anyone for the crime. Jeremy Taylor, a junior art major, walked into the Ashby art studio and wit- nessed the person destroying the artwork. "I didn't know what was going on at first," he said. "Then I realized that they were painting on one of my art works. The person got up and ran out of the stu- dio, and I kind of chased them."

The Sherman Dillard era of JMU men's basket- ball has begun, and it did so in winning fashion Saturday night as the Dukes beat North Carolina A&T State University, 73-62, in front of 4,500 at the Convocation Center. The first time Dillard was seen on the Convo floor during a reg- ular-season game was in the win- ter of 1973 when he played his first game in a "Dukes uniform. The return, according to Dillard, was rough on the nerves. JMU 73 N.C. A&T 62 "It's particularly good to win the first game, for me," he said. "There was a great deal of anxi- ety going into this game. To be honest, I was a little nervous." The victory was perhaps the best medicine for those shaky nerves, but the way JMU won was certainly not soothing. If it wasn't for some stingy second- half defense and a superb effort from junior guard Eugene Atkinson, the Dukes (1-0) could have found themselves in a 0-1 hole. "The way we were playing certainly wasn't indicative of the way we're capable of playing," Dillard said. "There was definite- ly some frustration." Coming off two convincing exhibition wins, the Dukes looked out-bf-sync offensively in Saturday's first half. Their trap- DYLAN BOUCHERLE/staff photographer ping defense caused several Junior guard Eugene Atkinson goes one-on-one with an Aggie defender.
