Holde By MIKE ROMATOWSKI Entertainment Editor There are few professions that come to mindwhicl require as much discipline and dedication as dancing. Dancers devote nearly one hundred percent of their lives to their craft, and their ultimate goal is perfection. Even when they don't quite reach that goal, the effort they have put into their art can be enough to lift their performance to an interesting level. Such was the case Wednesday night when the Frank Holder Dance company from North Carolina performed at the Township as the second attraction in the 1981-82 USC Cultural Series. The threeman, four-woman troupe presented eight selections during a 90-minute performance, and while the dancing was technically less than perfect, it never failed to be intriguing. The dances were performed to a variety of music ranging from pieces by Bach to a number called "Shadows," which moved to the staccato beat of African rhythms. Most of the dances emphasized soft, flowing movements; the accent was on the aesthetic, not the spectacular. 5 Tokens for $ 1.00 25 For r Ha 1 1:-; j, Iw * Frank Holt was on displ( "SHADOWS" most interesting night.

Dancers Heywood McGriff, Jr. and Erika Garrison performed a sensuous dance to the accompaniment of Zoltan Koldaly's cello. This was the , most intimate performance of the entire program. The one other number that really stood out was the , finale, "65/35," done to a classical composition by ; George Frederick Handel. I The dancers leaped onto a ' billowing, silky, tent-like structure; often they would run underneath it like children playing in a snow blizzard. It was surprising that the Township was only half-full for this performance. The USC Cultural Series is a unique opportunity for students to view excellent events for only a few dollars per show. The next event in the series will be the March 7 appearance of worldreknowned mime artist Marcel Marceau. \ ft G> jg|' ill Jla ^ ^ if ^ First Issue By JOHN VAU( Awt. tnt*rUinm*n?
