Battg (Ear Mppl Qefs’ A Cappella Invitational Wows Audience They’ve done it again. The Clef Hangers, UNC’s all-male a cappella musical group, coordinated yet another impressive a cappella invitational featuring groups from up and down the East Coast. With both Friday’s and Saturday’s shows sold out, 106 Carroll looked like Drama 16 on the first day of the semester packed. Anxious fans lined the aisles in hopes of wit nessing some top-notch en- ALISON' MAXWELL 1 Concert Review Clef Hangers A Cappella Invitational tertainment. And that they did. Saturday’s show featured the all-male Tufts University Beelzebubs, the all-female University of Maryland Treble Makers, the all-male Boston University Dear Ab beys, and, of course, the UNC Clef Hang ers. The 2 1/2 hour show prided itself on talent and nothing but that. No fancy cos tuming, no elaborate props, just music and more music. The Dear Abbeys opened the show and presented a performance packed with power and intense feeling. This was evi- AUSCHWITZ FROM PAGE 1 lighted this year,” he said. With D-Day observances and “Schindler’s List” drawing attention to the horrors ofthe Holocaust, yet another anni versary recalling these events draws mixed reactions both from survivors and from the German people. Morrison said she thought many survi vors wanted to educate people about the Holocaust. “Survivors believe it is important to learn what happened in the Holocaust,” she said. Koren said there now seemed to be a greater willingness among survivors to speak about their experiences in concen tration camps. “People are starting to realize that if they don’t tell their stories now, more and more human witnesses will die before they can ever tell their stories,” he said. Weinberg said he believed the anniver sary commemorations would do more good than harm. “Unpleasant memories are just that,” he said. “A vast majority of people who survived the Holocaust left records be cause they thought people should be re minded. In spite of personal pain, it’s im portant that generations be cautioned and warned.” As far as German reaction to all of this attention is concerned, Weinberg said it varied from person to person and from age to age. “There is in young people a sense that it : was a terrible part of their history and they i seed to inform themselves. There is on the part of a substantial number of adults a feeling that this is a terrible part oftheirpast that should not happen again,” he said. “You do have people that insist that it didn’t happen. It’s partly a way of shield ing oneself from guilt feeling or a way of voicing anti-Semitic feeling.” He added that he thought German ac ceptance of Nazi actions in WWII had changed during the past 50 years. “There are people in the leadership group i k [HENDERSON jk k f aii abc I iicTDrrTaa “ah abc I Permits!

It was almost as though this group was living the music. Although few of their songs were recent hits, the tunes they did sing were classics performed with style. Introduced by the Clef Hangers as “weird,” the Tufts University Beelzebubs were anything but. They burst onto stage with the early ’Bos hit, “Burning Down the House” by Talking Heads, complete with a synthesized-sounding percussion in the backup added by several members. Other songs that caught the attention of many college students were Seal’s “Prayer for the Dying,” and Michael Jackson’s “Human Nature.” As an encore, the group performed Aerosmith’s “Janie’s Got a Gun,” which, as you can imagine, strayed a tad from the typical a cappella performance. But it still added to the hip variety oftunes performed. The Beelzebubs’ strength was not only in their vocal style but also in the entertain ing skits presented in between each song. Remembering the History of Auschwitz Jan. 1933 - Adolf Hitler appointed as chancellor of Germany. Sept 1939 World War II begins. June 1940 -728 Polish prisoners arrive at Auschwitz, then a work camp. Oct 1941 - Construction begins on Birkerwic crematoriums, watchtow ers and electric barbed wire added to Auschwitz. Oct 1944 - Prisoner uprising destroys crematorium. Nov. 1944 - Gassings stop after more than 1 miion have been kiled. Jan. 194 S— 58,000 prisoners leave Auschwitz on westward 'death march.' ' May 1945 Germany surrenders; World War II ends. SOUKCE NEWSWEEK DTH/MATTLECLEKCQ who realize that the country headed in a wrong direction and it is important that the country doesn’t head in the wrong way again. In that way, the attitude has changed,” he said. With commemorations of the libera tion of Auschwitz and other concentration camps taking place throughout the year, many people hope that future generations will leant from the mistakes of the past. “Ceremonies incorporated with educa tional elements and built on long-term ef forts are (those that will be effective)," Morrison said. Koren suggested several ways for a per son to learn about the events of the Holo caust. “If a person has never been to the Holo caust Memorial Museum in Washington, D.C., go. Go see ‘Schindler’s List,”' he said. “I would encourage them to pay attention. Read a book documenting op pression throughout history. That’s what I’d tell the average Carolina student to do.” The Bubs literally had the audience rolling with a skit mocking “The Karate Kid” and a skit that attempted to prove that laughter is the best medicine. Later in their set, “rhythm man (the skit)” made an entrance and taught two members of the group to do an awesome step dance that left the audi ence hooting and hollering. Complete with slapstick stage antics, their performance was perhaps the most entertaining of the evening. Obviously, these are people who truly love what they are doing. Decked out in red nightgown-type shirts, the Maryland Treble Makers (what a cute name) took the stage. It must have been hard to follow such great acts, but the girls did the best they possibly could. Having just turned 6 years old, the group was somewhat hesitant as it entered with Annie Lennox’s “Walking on Broken Glass.” The singers did, however, perform an impressive rendition of Madonna’s “Ma terial Girl,” followed by a church-choir sounding “Higher and Higher.” Perhaps the problem with the Treble Makers was solely their lack of volume and a desperate attempt to sound more like a classical cho rus than an a cappella group. MEDICAL FROM PAGE 3 be available to them, ” he said. “The goal is to give them the opportunity to work in an up and going lab.” One student who took advantage of that opportunity is Kelley Dwyer, a senior at Southwest Guilford High School in Jamestown, N.C. The valedictorian of her class and a finalist for a Morehead Scholar ship, Dwyer took part in the program dur ing the summer of 1992. During that time, she worked with Nichols in a project to isolate Platelets Factor 4, the gene that produces proteins in platelets. “The research program was great,” Dwyer said. “I learned a lot about genetics and work ing with genetics. I had never been ex posed to molecular biology, and this was hands-on. Now I’m considering it as a career.” BICENTENNIAL FROM PAGE 1 in both the academic and the business worlds. “I thought he was a great example of someone who felt that his formative years were spent at the University, and, having achieved business success, he wanted to give something back,” Armfield said Sun day evening. David Whichard, BOT chairman, ex pressed his congratulations to all involved in the Bicentennial Campaign. “I think it’s just great,” Whichard said Sunday evening. “We not only met our initial goal but exceeded it.” with this ad, New* jokbl ( Plasma Donors Receive *( based on two visits M-F) W^HMHIH SERA-TEC BIOLOGICALS 109’A E.

It seemed as though they were attempting to gear their performance to every listener in the audi ence. The Clefs’ rendition of the Babyface smash “When Can I See You Again,” thrilled the concertgoers and left them beg ging for more. What we got was excellent singing, but a lack of the usual comic skits. The one funny point in their segment was when the Qefs imitated the Cranber ries song “Zombie,” with satiric Irish ac cents. This was followed by powerful ren ditions of Tom Petty’s “Learning to Fly,” and Collin Raye’s “Little Rock.” In response to a standing ovation, the Clefs performed two of their better songs. “Devil Went Down to Georgia,” origi nally performed by the Charlie Daniels Band, was one of the highlights of their stint. Although the lyrics are mainly spoken, the Qefs livened up the song by acting out the song’s plot. The final sensational song was the Gin Blossoms’ “Hey Jealousy," performed with the Qefs’ traditional cha risma and spunk. SRC FROM PAGE 3 sony to see Satterlee go. “He’s done a great job, and our loss is Loyola’s gain.” The new director will be chosen by a five member committee made up of two faculty members and three students. “By the bylaws of the SRC, there needs to be a majority of students on the selection committee,” Satterlee said. “This ensures that students are always involved in the future of the center.” The search committee will be made up of Pomerantz; Susan Chappel-Holliman, coordinator of the Wellness Resource Cen ter; Roderick Boyd, chairman of the SRC Board of Directors; and two other students chosen by Boyd. The committee’s candidate must be approved by John Billing, chairman of the Department of Physical Education, Exer cise and Sport Science. The Bicentennial Campaign began in 1989 with a S4OO million goal. In an effort to meet its goal, the cam paign has solicited pledges from alumni, corporations and foundations. Although UNC has met its overall goal for the Bicentennial Campaign, some de partments within the University have not yet reached their subgoals. Whichard was unable to give specific figures on which departments are still short of their goal. However, Whichard said he was opti mistic that they would meet their expected totals before June 30, when the campaign ends. “I think before it’s ovfer WeHtneet them all.” Campus Calendar MONDAY 2 p.m. Job Hunt 101: Orientation, a basic infor mation session on how to use 2 the UCS office, for seniors and graduate students will be held in 210 Hanes. 3:30 p.m. EEKI Environmental Education for Kids will be making T-shiits with the kids from Aiiport Gardens in Union 218.
