Ebenkl The Nutcracker has magic of Christmas By Staci Finch Entertainment Writer The Christmas season is upon us. It’s obvious in the decorations, in stores, in the Christmas songs on the radio and the stands of Christmas trees for sale everywhere. And the advent of the season brings more than Santa and the wise men. It also brings The Nutcracker. The classic ballet, accompanied by music by Tchaikovsky, is as much a part of Christmas as manger scenes and reindeer. Children by age as well as at heart gather during the season to see performances of the show, as did those gathered in Rud der Auditorium Tuesday night. The Indianapolis Ballet Theater were well-received by an audience of 1900 as they performed the beloved bal let. The ballet tells the story of the Stahibaum family as they exchange gifts with friends at Christmas. Their daughter, Clara, receives a magical nutcracker that comes alive and leads her on a magical journey to the Kingdom of Sweets, where she meets the Sugar Plum Fairy. The performance was well pre sented, and was aided by fantastic scenery. Composed mostly of back drop curtains, the set was extrava- gent and contributed much to the fantasy setting of the show. Al though some audience members were disgruntled by the lack of live sound, the music was excellent and well recorded. Very memorable were the individ ual dances performed in the King dom of Sweets. Dale Shields was ex cellent in the Spanish Dance, as was Michele Jones and Clark Blakley in the Chinese Dance. The comedy in these two dances contrasted sharply with the sensousness of the Arabian Dance, performed by Annetthe Graber and Michael Stephenson. But the best of these dances was the Russian Dance. Michael King, Chuck Pizarro and Frank Weiner put such vigor into their perfor mance that they carried (heart ence off the stage with them. Along with the excellent dancini was a lot of humor, which wasra shown in the dance of the Past!' Chefs. As the four chefs, each one smaller copy of the previom jumped and bumped each otlu across the stage, they madetheditt cult art of slapstick dancing lod easy. Also humorous were the mitt Their dancing antics kept the art ence laughing, and was onlyto| by the arrival of the King of tk Mice. H is ego was hard to miss, Steven Wright played the role toll* hilt. The classic Pas de Deux betwti the Sugar Plum Fairy (faneHacfc and the Nutcracker Prince (Edvaj Moffat) was excellent. Aside few rough spots and some sfl movements, the two created m: onstage, and were greeted with ctin Texas / and Head Sherrill toe from pre] night’s Ala plans to rei “I don't getting tir< about that before pn nmg to res ing so hare A&M cam report on planned t< ama garni sounding applause from the: Diabetic care improves with years of research By Stephanie Richard Reporter Diabetic care is the best today that it’s ever been, Dr. Luther Travis, a professor of pediatric nephrelogy, said. Travis, practicing diabetic medi cine at the University of Texas Medi cal Center in Galveston, is the medi cal director for Texas Lion’s Camp for Diabetic Children. He has done extensive diabetic research and is in volved in patient education. “The past 15 years have shown an explosion of what we currently know about diabetes and its future,” he said. “It’s an exciting time to be in volved in diabetes; it’s a better time than it was a few years ago. Current diabetic research is focus ing on what to do with the informa tion patients receive once diabetes is diagnosed, he said. 1980 was a key point in establishing new techniques to monitor blood sugar on a daily ba sis. New research is analyzing meth ods for maintaining glucose levels in active ways. Insulin administration, diet and exercise can be programmed into an interactive process to help people learn, he said. Addressing a group of 20 in Ster ling C. Evans Library Tuesday night, Travis said four factors contribute to a patients’s blood sugar level. “Controlling diabetes results from insulin intake, diet, exercise pro grams and stress management,” he said. “Most people don’t realize how important stress is in regulating blood sugar. “Significant studies in drug re search have been done in foreign MARFA (AP) — Two teens, ages 16 and 17, were arrested Tuesday and charged with murder in a sniper attack on three Rio Grande white- water rafters, police said. Eduardo Pineda Rodriguez, 17, was arrested Tuesday morning at his parents’ home east of the Big Bend village of Bedford, according to Pre sidio County Sheriff Rick Thomp son. The 16-year-old was arrested by countries,” he said. Diabetes K search is taking top priority in ft ada, Europe and Japan. “We’re close enough in toda/sS' ciety to treating these immunedrt tiers,” Travis said. “We’re explort with immense technology. Ourfe will change dramtically within ik next eight to 10 years. The future very exciting.” Chihuahua state judicial police ’ Ojinaga, Mexico, Thompson The identity of the boy, a Mexifi 1 citizen, was being withheld beca^ of his age.
