As Supreme Court Chief Justice

execute the office of the President of the
United States.” Vice President A1 Gore
was sworn in by Justice Byron White.
Clintom who descended the Capitol

hundreds of thousands of anxious
Americans. In spite of the forecasted

North Carolina teamed up with 21,572
frenzied fans to give Virginia a taste
of just how good things are getting in
Chapel Hill.
With a torrid second half, the Tar
Heels pounced on the seventh-ranked
Cavaliers 80-58. UNC improved to
15-1,5-0 in the ACC, while UVa. fell
to 11-1,4-1. The Tar Heels now hold
sole possession of first place in the
conference.
“If we keep doing this, I think no
body is going to beat us,” said UNC
point guard Derrick Phelps.
Added senior forward George
Lynch, “I tend to like this role, where
everyone else is getting the attention
and we’re just sneaking in and taking
what’s rightfully ours.”

While members of Congress, Cabi

guests looked on, Clinton praised the
outgoing Republican administration and
thanked President George Bush for his
loyalty and dedication.
“I salute my predecessor, President
Bush, for his half-century of service to
America,” he said.
Bush and his wife, Barbara, attended
the ceremony, as did Vice President
Dan Quayle and his wife Marilyn.
Although Clinton said that key gov
ernmental decisions rested with Con
gress and the executive branch, he
stressed that his administration would
thrive on the input of the American
people.
“I ask the Congress to join with me.
But no President, no Congress, no gov

alone,” Clinton said. “We have heard

The Democratic ticket’s theme of

though many changes were necessary
to relieve the nation’s domestic woes,
Leonard Wayre, a spectator from
College Park, Md., said he was im
pressed with Clinton's 15-minute
speech.
“It was very direct,” he said. ‘T liked
the fact that he was saying that Ameri

country and that politicians can no longer
ignore the people.”
New York native Saul Schachter
agreed. “It was short and to the point
and it sounded honest,” he said.
The brevity of the address surprised

Town council to consider
recall of elected officials
By Maile Carpenter
Staff Writer
The Chapel Hill Town'Council will
hold a public forum tonight to discuss a
draft for a bill that would enable local
residents to initiate a recall of elected
town officials.
Chapel Hill voters may be able to
recall town council member Joe
Herzenberg if the General Assembly
adopts the council’s proposal.
Herzenberg pleaded guilty in August
to two counts of willful failure to file
state taxes. Although the council passed
a motion urging him to resign,
“I think people were a little worried
because he has a tendency to talk a lot,”
said Scott Grimaldi, a Pennsylvania
native who called his trip to Washing
ton “really inspiring.”
Many others also were optimistic
about die upcoming Clinton adminis
tration, although not many expected
instantaneous changes in policy.
“I expect Clinton to concentrate on
die economy and health care,” said
Kevin Blair, a Richmond, Va., native.
‘lt’s not going to be anything easy, but
I have confidence.”
“I admire his commitment to chang
ing the country and his sensitivity to all
our time is whether we can make change
our friend and not our enemy.”
Clinton said that Americans—faced
with health care problems, unemploy
ment, rising crime rates and the woes of
children had “not made change our

“Once this is passed, anybody who
