mm mm X THE BATTALION Page 3 MONDAY, OCTOBER 19, 1981 ocal Dietitians install officers tonight at local restaurant By BARBIE WOELFEL Battalion Stall Everyone is concerned about proper diet and nutrition. A local professional organization known as the Mid-East Texas Dietetic Association is designed to better inform the public on proper diet and nutrition habits. The TDA was formed eight years ago and presently has 25 members, said Francis Henry, a Registered Dietitian and Nutritu- tion Counselor and the TDA in coming president for 1982. “New officers will be installed Monday night at 6:30 at Julie’s Place,” Henry said. “Our slate in cludes Cheryl Earp, president elect; Pat Habertroh, secretary; Irene Barksdale, treasurer; Mary Sweeten, chairman of ,council of practice; and Alice Richter, chair man-elect of council. ” The president-elect in this orga nization is the vice president. All members are registered dietitians who passed a written test and completed 75 hours of continued education on different aspects of dietetics over a five-year period. “The TDA is a chapter of the American • Dietetic Association which has approximately 40,000 members,” she added. Some members of TDA have a private practice in nutritional counseling. They advise patients who have been referred to them by doctors, providing them with personal diet plans and nutritional information. Several public services includ ing the United States Department of Agriculture and the Agricultu ral Extension Service and several private businesses such as Kraft or Campbell’s Soup staff nutritional counselors.

Borge, 72, was on stage at least 5 minutes before he started to lay the piano. He spent this time peaking at length about his piano, ondering aloud why a man with inly two feet needed a piano with hreepedals and informing his au- ience that the keys were yellow inly because his elephant smoked much. Finally, he started to play a iece by Mozart — sort of. The first part was definitely Mozart; however, the ending combined “Chopsticks” and “Happy Birth day to You.” Borge shared the spotlight with Marylyn Mulvey, an opera soloist who has performed with Borge for seven years. During the course of her performance, Borge constant ly admonished Mulvey to keep her hands off his piano and greeted her announcement of her next selection with “Oh, God!” and a grimace. Borge accompanied Mulvey, but with more than music. As she sang, he sang along, mimicked her, pulled his coat over his head to cover his ears and fell off the piano bench when she hit an espe cially high note. Expecting more high notes, he pulled a seat belt out of his piano bench and secured himself to the seat. The pair made a great comedy duo; however, their “serious” ta lents were showcased when they performed “Ave Maria.” Borge, a renowned comedian and musician, then exhibited his literary skills through “phonetic punctuation.” This routine, which has become Borge s trademark, consisted of Borge reading a para graph and accompanying it with appropriate sounds for punctua tion. At the end of his performance, Borge said, “When the handker chief comes out to wipe away a tear of laughter, that is my re ward.” If this is the case, Victor Borge was amply rewarded by the Texas A&M audience Sunday night.
