Clef Hangers provide 'Thriller'
It's a fascination that refuses to fade.
For 16 years, the Clef Hangers have
pleased their audiences with fine a
cappella sounds whose appeal seems to
gain momentum through time rather
than go out of style.
The Clef Hangers, the only all-male
a cappella group on campus, performed
for a full house Friday night in Memo
rial Hall for their annual fall concert.
Combining humor with strong talent
made for an enjoyable performance.
The Clefs began the show in the spirit
of Halloween as a group of singers
disguised as Frankenstein, Mona Lisa,
a "cereal killer," Batman, a California
Raisin and even some fried okra made
their way from house to house, picking
up more costumed Clefs along the way.
This motley crew went trick-or-treat-ing
on the doorsteps of David Letterman,
Duke University men's basketball coach
Mike Kryzewski, Elvis and Madonna.
Though Madonna's garb of spandex
shorts and pointy golden breasts was
scary in itself, she was not the temptress
that would endanger the hapless Clefs.
Rather, the innocent singers were
lured into the home of a female vampire
who, rather than actually biting them.
Poll
black. Two-hundred seventy six non
black students and 27 black students
were questioned.
BCC stance broken down by race
The breakdown over the question of
a multicultural center versus a black
cultural center was even more dramatic
among non-black and black students.
While 100 percent of black students
questioned said they would vote for a
free-standing BCC, only 40 percent of
non-blacks polled said they would sup
port construction of a new BCC.
Forty-five percent of non-black stu
dents polled said they were opposed to
construction of a free-standing black
cultural center.
Of the non-black students, 54 per
cent said they strongly agreed that the
University needed a multicultural cen
ter instead of a free-standing BCC.

gave them hickeys.
The first song performed was "Happy
Together," which set an upbeat tone for
the show. Other well-known songs they
performed included "Little Red Book,"
"Runaround Sue" and "Do You Believe
in Love."
Though it had little similarity to the
poppy performance of The Cure, the
Clefs' version of "Love Song" was in
teresting and more lyrical than the origi
nal. "You May Be Right," a well-known
Billy Joel tune, featured a strong solo
performance by Jim Davidson with a
complex and nicely balanced back
ground. Though some of the skits performed
between songs were clever and funny,
at times the attempts seemed amateur
ish and fell flat with the audience.
A skit that the audience had no prob
lem identifying with involved home
football games and the sights one in
variably witnesses. These annoyances
dents said they agreed moderately in the
need for a multicultural center.
Among blacks, however, 33 percent
of those polled strongly disagreed that a
multicultural center was needed over a
BCC, and another 37 percent said they
disagreed moderately that a
multicultural center was the answer.
Eighteen percent of black students
polled said they agreed moderately that
a multicultural center was needed,
andthree percent strongly agreed in the
need for construction of a multicultural
center rather than a new BCC.
BCC movement questioned
Students also were divided along ra
cial lines on the question of whether the
BCC movement had become too mili
tant. The student-led struggle, which has
included marches on Hardin's home
and of fice, was dubbed too extremist by
hidden away in Carrboro Plaza...

included non-cheering alumni in the
Rams Club, the mikeman and drunken
fraternity members.
A particularly strong performance
was a version of Don Henley's "Heart
of the Matter." Soloist Clay Robinson
made effective use of dynamics and had
good support from his background sing
ers who did not overshadow him de
spite their complex parts.
This performance garnered much
response from the appreciative audi
ence. However, a disappointment was the
a cappella version of U2's "Mysterious
Ways." This song is technical and com
plex, making it difficult for such an
adaptation. The performance came
across as crowded and uninspiring.
"Carolina In My Mind," the ever
popular James Taylor tune, was per
formed quite effectively. Though it
might have seemed that by changing
soloists often the song would lose its
effect, the strong, consistent talent of
the Clefs made the performance even
more memorable.
Proving that they can do more than
sing, the Clefs began the second half of
the concert with a well-choreographed
23 percent of all students polled, who
strongly agreed with the statement "that
the BCC movement is too militant."
Another 28 percent of those polled said
they agreed moderately.
Eleven percent of those polled dis
agreed strongly with the statement, and
20 percent disagreed moderately.
The breakdown among non-blacks
and blacks was dramatic: 62 percent of
black students polled disagreed strongly
with the statement that the BCC move
ment had become too militant, and an
other 25 percent disagreed moderately
with the statement.
Twenty-six percent of non-black stu
dents polled said they agreed strongly
with the statement "that the BCC move
ment had become too militant," and
another 30 percent polled said they
agreed moderately with the statement.
Students unsure about separatism
Students also were divided about
whether a free-standing BCC would
promote separatism, one of the main
arguments raised by BCC opponents.
In response to the statement "that a
free-standing BCC will prevent inte
gration of whites and blacks," 27 per
cent of all those polled said they agreed
strongly, and another 30 percent said
they agreed moderately.
Eighty-one percent of blacks polled
disagreed strongly with the question,
while 30 percent of non-blacks agreed
strongly, and 32 percent of non-blacks
agreed moderately.

of a show
dance to Michael Jackson's "Thriller,"
which featured the performers in tux
edos moving in synchronization on a
stage shrouded in mist and red light.
The Clefs showed their vocal diver
sity by performing songs of different
types such as the bluesy "Cruise Blues,"
the religious "I Hear a Voice A-Prayin'"
and "Rainbow," which hearkened back
to the classic movie "The Wizard of
Oz."
Three popular tunes, "Finer Things,"
"Don't You Forget About Me" and "I
Can't Dance," all proved to be success
ful when adapted to a cappella as they
featured strong soloists (Clay Robinson,
Michael Wakeford and Michael
Lemon), balanced background singers
and favorable responses from the audi
ence. The evening drew to a close with
Clef alumni joining other performers in
leading the audience in the UNC fight
song and alma mater.
As an encore, the Clef Hangers per
formed "Crocodile Rock." By choosing
an upbeat selection to end the evening,
the Clefs sent fans into the rainy dark
ness snapping their fingers and eager
for the next performance.

Movement draws sympathy
Most students polled did seem to
sympathize with the efforts of the coa
lition for a free-standing BCC.
In response to the statement "that
students have earned the right to a free
standing BCC by their hard work and
dedication to the BCC movement," 26
percent of those polled said they agreed
strongly and another 34 percent said
they agreed moderately. Only 8 percent
said they strongly disagreed.
Professor: Results show concern
among non-black students
Oberschall, who helped Miech in his
research, said the results showed that a
surprising number of non-black stu
dents had questions concerning a free
standing BCC. "The overwhelming con
sensus on the part of black students (in
favor of a free-standing BCC) reflects a
lot of discussion on their part," said
Oberschall. "For the other students, they
agreed or disagreedbutrarely 'strongly'
one way or the other.
"It reveals that either they don't feel
about (the issue) very strongly or that
they haven't given it much thought."
But while most non-black students
polled were not strongly leaning one
way or the other, their responses were
not uneducated, Oberschall said.
"These are not just off-the-cuff re
sponses," Oberschall said. "Nobody on
campus unless they've been asleep
for the past three months could just
be ignorant about this issue."

Race relations within gay
community focus of forum
Bisexuals, Gay Men, Lesbians and
Allies for Diversity will focus on break
ing down racism and prejudices ia the
homosexual community at tonight's
meeting.
Men of AH Colors Together, a local
gay men's group dedicated to breaking
down racial barriers existing specifi
cally within the homosexual commu
nity, will speak to B-GLAD members
and guests at a meeting at 7 p m. in the
Toy Lounge of Dey Hall.
D.J. Register, a member of Men of
All Colors Together, said the group
served as a medium for informal dis
cussion of the barriers in the gay com
munity . Men of All Colors Together is
the local chapter of the National Asso
ciation of Black and White Men To

Among BCC opponents, the margin
was much closer: 39 percent of those
who said they opposed a free-standing
BCC also said they would vote for
Clinton, while 37 percent of BCC oppo
nents said they supported Bush, and 19
percent' said they would vote for Perot.
Gardner comments against BCC
could have effect
Recent comments by Lt. Gov. Jim
Gardner, the Republican gubernatorial
candidate, might have some affect on
the governor's race, according to poll
results.
"I would try to use my influence as
governor to stop it and get our universi
ties' trustees not to bow down to pres
sure," Gardner said at the Orange County
GOP headquarters Monday. "We ought
to have a great university that has equal
access to every student."
Among BCC advocates, 52 percent
said they supported Hunt, 1 1 percent
said they supported Gardner, and 37
percent said they had no opinion.
But Gardner's remarks could have
the greatest effect among opponents of
a new BCC. Among that group, 41
percent said they supported Hunt, 32
percent said they would vote for Gardner
and 26 percent were undecided.
Thad Beyle, a UNC Domical science
professor, said that while the results of
the poll were interesting, it should not
be assumed that the BCC issue was
primary on voters' minds. "( The com
ments) may very well have reinforced
their views," Beyle said. "But you'd
have to have asked more questions about
the election to know for sure."

B-GLAD Co-chairman Doug
Ferguson said he thought racism was a
problem in the gay conunuiuty just as
it was in the straight community. "For
example, just like in the heterosexual
community, interracial dating is not
readily accepted," he said.
Ferguson said he thought it was
important to introduce Men of All
ColorsTogetherto the University com
munity. "I find it rather ironic that in other
minority or oppressed groups that still
other 'isms exist," he said. "Some
people think that because members of
tlie African-American community are
familiar with, being oppressed, they
should support the gay community
; and vice versa."
