BILL GARRETT, ASSISTANT DEAN AND FORMER BASKETBALL STAR, DIES
William L. (Bill) Garrett, one of the first black basketball players to play" io the Big Ten and a member of the Indiana Basketball Hall of Fame, died Wednesday in Methodist Hospital. Mr. Garrett, 45, 325 West 44th Street, had suffered a heart attack Saturday.
Since last year, Mr. Garrett was assistant dean for student services at IUPUI and involved with student activities programs and non-academic counseling for students.
"The IUPUI community -- and the state of Indiana -- are saddened by the sudden
death of Bill Garrett." said Dr. Glenn W. Irwin, Jr., vice-president and chancellor.
"His examples of sportsmanship and excellence will be sorely missed."
Mr. Garrett's basketball career stretched from Shelbyville High School --where he was a member of the 1947 Indiana State championship team, to around the world, as he toured with the Harlem Globetrotters for two years before he turned to coaching and teaching. The top scorer, in the 1947 state finals, Mr. Garrett was named
"Mr. Basketball."
He went on to play at Indiana University under the late coach Branch McCracken.
There, he was named an All-American in 1951, his senior year.
In 1957, he replaced Ray Crowe as basketball coach at Crispus Attucks High School and two years later took his Attucks team to the state finals and state championship.
He was named "coach of the year" for that victory.
Mr. Garrett became athletic director at Attucks in 1967. He took a teaching position with Indiana Vocational Technical College in 1970, then joined IUPUI in 1973.
Mr. Garrett was an elder and a trustee at the Witherspoon United Presbyterian Church, and financial secretary of the Alpha Home for the Aged. He was also a member of Kappa Alpha Psi fraternity, Veterans of Foreign Wars, American Legion and the Waterford Lodge of the ~fasons.
Services will be held at 11 a.m. Saturday (August 10) in the church, with burial in Crown Hill Cemetery.
Survivors include his widow, Mrs. Betty L. Garrett; three daughters, Misses Tina Louise, Judith Ann and Laurie Jean Garrett, and his son, William Guess Garrett.

MOORE TO HEAD IUPUI'S DPEA
The search for the director of IUPUI's Division of Public and Environmental Affairs (DPEA) is over. Dr. J. Malcolm Moore, a native of Tennessee who came to the position after three years as professor and chairman of the political science department at Eastern Kentucky University, is the new man at the helm.
Prof. Moore brings a varied background to the position. After he received the B.S. in business administration from the University of Tennessee in 1954, he obtained the L.L.B. in law from U.T. in 1955 and then served two years as a legal officer in the U.S. Marine Corps.
Following his discharge, he was a labor relations specialist and employment manager with ALCOA for three years. He then spent several years in Wisconsin where he obtained an M.S. in political science and taught at Carroll College.
In ·1967 he went to the University of Georgia as an instructor of political science and began work on a Ph.D. which was completed in 1969. He stayed on at the institution as an assistant professor until his move to Eastern Kentucky University in 1971.
Moore estimates that there will be about 500 students enrolled this fall in the five degree programs offered by DPEA, a part of the systemwide School of Public and
Environmental Affairs (SPEA).
"Right now," he said, "we have approximately 164 students pursuing the A.S. in criminal justice and 226 enrolled in the B.S. program. Another 44 active students are working toward the B.S. in metropolitan studies and approximately 52 students are seeking the M.P.A. MidCareer Option degrees."
Running a program such as the one at IUPUI is definitely viewed as a challenge by Moore. He readily recognizes and appreciates the dedication of his staff and the role it plays.
"I have been impressed most by the high morale of the staff," he said, "and the 'let's get on with it' approach that everyone has exhibited."
He has already come to grips with the reality faced by all of SPEA's administrators since its inception. He summed it up amply when he stated, "Our whole operation is so new and small in terms of the number of faculty that we simply find it impossible to take advantage of all the opportunities that come our way."
Moore has been busy publishing in his field as well. In 1973, he, Robert Golembiewski and Jack Rabin edited The Dilemmas Of Political Participation: Issues for Thought and Simulation for Action.
Two papers prepared with Rabin, "The Generation Gap" and "Community in Crisis," will appear in a criminal justice textbook later this year, and two books are now in progress.
