WASHINGTON President

Monica Lewinsky an apology “on

according to sources familiar with the
testimony who commented only on
condition of anonymity. The sources
were not associated with the House
prosecution team and worked outside
the White House.
Four senators sat in on the session as
referees but would give no details later
because they are bound by a Senate
admonition not to discuss what they
observed. The rest of the Senate is
expected to review the videotape as
early as Tuesday as part of the trial to
remove Clinton from office.

At one point in Monday’s session,
private presidential attorney Nicole
Seligman read a statement that apolo

president for all the trouble the investi

caused her,” one of the sources said.
Seligman and the two other Clinton
attorneys who attended the session
posed no questions of the former intern,
according to several sources.

Hunt: N.C. Schools
Must 'Aim Higher'
Associated Press
RALEIGH - Gov. Jim Hunt chal
lenged legislators Monday night to
make North Carolina’s public schools
the best in the nation by the end of the
next decade.
“Let’s aim higher than we have ever
dreamed of,” Hunt said in prepared
rema ks for a joint session of the state
Hous and Senate.
“I believe that if we can lead the
nation in education progress, we can
lead the nation in education - period,”
he said.
Hunt said he would issue an execu
tive order asking the Education Cabinet,
which he chairs, to develop a set of goals
to make the state’s schools the best in
the nation by 2010.
North Carolina’s goals, he said,
should include stricter academic stan
dards, ensuring that all teachers are
trained in the areas they teach, getting
parents and businesses more involved in
schools and developing a report card
that will tell parents how their school
and the state, are doing in comparison
to others.
He said he wanted the goals set by
Sept. 1.
“Never before in our history have we
set such an ambitious goal,” Hunt said.

The president’s team had planned
not to ask questions if the lawyers felt
the prosecutors had broken no new
ground, said several Democratic sources
familiar with the preparations.
Away from the session, presidential
lawyers were more aggressive, filing a
new complaint with a federal judge
against Independent Counsel Kenneth
Starr in connection with a weekend
“And never before have we needed a
statewide effort of this scope. Our future
is at stake.”
Hunt said he wants the next two
years, his last in office, to be a begin
ning, not an end.
“I may not be running for anything,
but I haven’t run out of ambition for
North Carolina,” he said.
“I’m not interested in building a lega
cy. I’m interested in building our
future.”
Hunt said he wants four things from
the N.C. General Assembly this year:
increased funding for the Smart Start
program, the third installment of a four
year plan to raise teacher salaries to
meet the national average, make schools
safer for students and end social pro
motions.
“Some of you may say this is the
same old stuff I’ve been saying for six
years,” Hunt said.
“You’re right, and let me tell you, the
same old stuff is the right stuff. It’s time
we stick to what works.”
Hunt provided no specifics for pay
ing for his proposals, but said there
would definitely be enough money this
year.
The budget he will present next
week, Hunt said, will include S2OO mil
lion in spending reductions for the 1999-
story in The New York Times that
reported Starr had concluded a grand
jury could indict Clinton before he left
office.
David Kendall, a private lawyer rep
resenting Clinton, said he was asking a
federal court to require Starr to show
why he and his staff “should not be held
in contempt for improper violations of
grand jury secrecy.”

that candidates or members of their

She said each candidate would be
charged 50 cents for every poster viola
tion. These fines will be taken out of the
candidate’s campaign budget and must
be included in the candidate’s finance
statement after elections.
Faulk and Wright spent four hours
during the weekend taking down illegal
campaign posters. Wright said she spent
two hours taking illegal posters down
Friday afternoon. She said most of the
violations were in Bingham and
Murphey halls, with posters illegally
placed in classrooms and bathrooms, on
the exteriors of glass doors and on
departmental bulletin boards.
Faulk said she had received many
complaints of unfair posting. One per
son slid a typed list under her door of
poster violations stating who the candi
date was and where his or her posters
were illegally placed. “I wrote an e-mail
to all the candidates saying this has got
