Clinton will cut White
House staff, privileges
WASHINGTON President Clinton
ordered cuts in the White House staff,
salaries and privileges Tuesday,
saying he could not ask Americans to
make economic sacrifices unless
government shared the pain..
“The government must do more
and make do with less,” Clinton said,
announcing a reduction of 350 full
and part-time workers and employees
borrowed from other agencies. Most
of the cuts will be achieved without
layoffs.
Clinton also announced a measure
to restrict the home-to-work use of
chauffeur-driven limousines to three
officials: the chief of staff, the
national security adviser and his
deputy. Six people were eligible for
limousine service under President
Bush. He transformed the White
House mess, traditionally reserved for
senior officials, to a cafeteria open to
all employees. As before, staffers will
be billed for their meals at the facility.
Angolan government
wants U.S. recognition
LUANDA, Angola Angola’s
foreign minister appealed for U.S.
recognition Tuesday, saying his
government had met Washington’s
conditions to hold fair elections and
stage other reforms.
The request from Foreign Minister
Venancio de Moura, made in an
interview with The Associated Press,
came as the prospect of a second
round of peace talks dimmed after
UNITA rebel leader Jonas Savimbi
said his delegation could not attend
today’s scheduled session.
The United States refused to
recognize Angola’s then-Marxist
government when the country became
independent from Portugal in 1975.
Washington backed the rebels in the
nation’s 16-year civil war.
The Soviet Union and Cuba
supported the ruling Popular Move
ment for the Liberation of Angola.
Former President Bush said last
year that Washington would recog
nize Angola once multiparty elections
were held under a peace agreement
signed in May 1991.

Thornton captures CAA
presidency hands down
By Gautam Khandelwal
Staff Writer
When the final poll site results were
announced just after midnight, Daniel
Thornton had captured the Carolina
Athletic Association presidential race
with more than 55 percent of students’
votes.
Thornton received 1,368 of the total
2,470 votes cast. Louis Patalano fin
ished second with 589 votes, and Josh
Stanbery finished third with 513 votes.
Thornton said the effort his staff put
into the campaign was the major factor
in his victory.
“1 thought we had a chance to win
from the beginning,” Thornton said.
“We campaigned a great deal these last
few days, and my staff worked very
hard.”
Thornton received 127 out of a pos
sible 192 votes at the Carmichael poll
ing site.
“1 think Carmichael was a big reason
I won,” he said. “I lived there before,
and I received a good turnout.”
Thornton said his prior experience
with the CAA serving as co-director of
the Tar Heel Tip-Off and as CAA direc
tor of publicity also were major factors
in his win.
“Students wanted someone with a lot
of CAA experience,” he said. “I think
our hard work and the endorsements
helped greatly.”
Thornton said the first area he and his
staff planned to concentrate on was
improving football and basketball ticket
distribution.
“My campaign staff and I will be in
the Pit soon to discuss the ticket distri
bution situation with students,”
Thornton said.
Patalano said his campaigning didn’t
lead to a victory because he didn ’ t reach
all areas of the campus.
“I got many votes at Granville (Tow
ers), but the key sites were on campus,”
Patalano said. “I really didn’t hit the
other dorms well.”
Patalano, who had no prior CAA
experience, said he might apply for a
position with the CAA under Thomton.
“I’ll keep my fresh ideas and per
spective out there,” he said. “I think 1

Jim Copland and Jennifer Lloyd
two people who describe themselves as
“the best of friends” will face off
once again Feb. 16 in the student body
president election runoff.
The pair of juniors, who grew up
together in Burlington and have com
peted “forever” according to Lloyd, fin
ished first and second in the six-candi
date student body president race Tues
day.
Copland finished an overwhelming
first, capturing 1,116 votes. Lloyd, who
squeaked by Carl Clark, finished with
578 votes. Clark, who won the
Ehringhaus, Law School and Granville
Towers poll sites, finished with 469
votes.
Kevin “Cooter” Ginsberg finished
fourth with 291 votes; Adrian Patillo
finished fifth with 144 votes; UNC cen
ter Eric Montross, a write-in candidate,
finished sixth with 121 votes; and David
Cox rounded out the seven with 79
votes.
Copland and Lloyd, student election
veterans who ran the campaigns of two
different student body president candi
dates last year, said they were looking
ahead to the runoff.
“I think it’s kind of fun; we still have
competitive card games,” Copland said.
“I think things will be amicable.”
The final unofficial results were re
leased at 12:30 a.m. today.
Copland said he was pleased with the
results but was focusing on next week’s
contest.
“It makes me feel good that I’m go
ing to be in the runoff,” he said. “It looks
like a lot of people voted to make stu
dent government credible. Still, I’ll feel
better if I’m number one after next
week.”
Lloyd said she was surprised she had
made the runoff. “I absolutely did not
know what to expect,” she said. “You
cannot predict campus elections.”
The runoff will offer a clear choice
between two different candidates, Lloyd
said.
“Jim and I are two very different
people,” Lloyd said. “There have been
some things that Jim has said in the

The outcome showed that there is
“sincere support for a person who wants
to serve the University,” Lloyd said.
She credited her campaign staff for
her making the runoff and said the run
off campaign started immediately.
Lloyd said she would work hard to
define to students who she is and how
committed she is to the University. She
said she would lead a campaign that
focused on the positive differences be
tween herself and Copland.
Copland said he planned to cam
paign door to door for the runoff, a
previously illegal offense, now allowed
for the runoff election.
“Now that door to door is legal, we
plan to get out everywhere, trying to get
the message out,” he said. “As long as
I’m talking to people and people turn
out, we should be in good shape.”
Copland also applauded the absence
of negative campaigning in the general
election. “I think this has been a good,

ballot, passed by a 2,151 to 738 vote.
The fend would raise fends for the
UNC libraries by increasing student

The projected SIOO,OOO collected

Maybe UNC should have waited

But six days was all the time the No.

surge in the runoff next Tuesday.
The Montross vote actually could
have had an effect on the final election
outcome. In a race in which only the top
two finishers qualified for the runoff, a
mere 109 votes separated second-place
finisher Jennifer Lloyd from Carl Clark,
who finished third.
Lloyd said the vote showed a lack of
communication between student gov
ernment and the students whom leaders
were elected to serve.

The second referendum, proposing

“I don’t take losses very well,” said
the senior point guard after the game.
“And we lost to them less than a week
ago. It was still fresh in my mind and I
just wanted to make sure we came out

She made sure, all right. Evans played
a full 40 minutes, amassing a career
high 24 points with seven assists and
two steals. She scored the Cavs’ first
seven points of the game and tallied 17
by halftime.
