SCHROEPPEL, O.D., P.C. DOCTOR OF OPTOMETRY BONN, West Germany (AP) — Chancellor Helmut Kohl on Tues day firmly rejected Moscow’s sugges tion that settling the military com- g lexities of a united Germany could e delayed until after the countries are merged. “It would be a fatal development if the external and internal condi tions of German unity were not com pletely clear when the day of Ger man unity comes,” Kohl told reporters. The chancellor was referring to a suggestion by Soviet Foreign Min ister Eduard Shevardnadze that for mal German unity could occur be fore “external” aspects of the merger are cleared up. Such “external” aspects would in clude those issues with international implications, such as the military stance of a united Germany. West Germany currently belongs to NATO, while East Germany is a member of the Soviet-led Warsaw Pact. The Soviets oppose a united Ger many in NATO. During reunification talks Satur day in Bonn, Shevardnadze also sug gested a “transition period” during which the four wartime allies would retain postwar rights, even after German unity. The United States, the Soviet Union, France and Britain jointly control many matters in the former German capital of Berlin. They also have special rights outside Berlin, many involving the status of the troops they maintain in what once were their postwar military occupa tion zones. Shevardnadze’s remarks initially triggered jubilation among some West German politicians, who sensed the pace of unification was picking up. But by Tuesday that had changed to concern about delaying settlement of important issues related to Ger man unification. There had even been talk among some politicians of canceling West Germany’s Dec. 2 national election in favor of elections for a united Germany’s parliament. But Kohl said Tuesday “without question” the Dec. 2 elections will still occur. Moscow has suggested as a com promise that a united Germany be long to both NATO and the Warsaw Pact until still-undefined European “security structures” are created. make money by opening their doors at night and selling snacks and drinks. People that need the library’s materials should be there, but group studiers are often there to socialize also, she said. “If there were other alternatives here for students, maybe it (the li brary) wouldn’t serve that purpose,” she said. Hoadley also plans to take advan tage of more technological possibili ties. She said she plans to add to the NOTIS system. By next year, she hopes a system for users to call in questions on a computer will be com pleted. “It beats coming to the library on a rainy night,” she said.

It never healed properly, so she called it quits in 1933, saying she didn’t want to be a “one-legged dancer.” Following retirement from the stage, Mrs. Gee moved to Indianap olis and turned her attentions to tea ching ballet. During her stay in Indi anapolis, she married her first husband. Jack Broderick. Their marriage soon ended. Following the divorce, she mar ried Howard Gee and they moved to South America. During a stay in Panama, she became director of bal let at the National School of Dance in Panama City. She taught at the Panama school for many years, producing profes sional dancers every year. The Panamanian government re warded her in 1971 by giving her the Order of Vasco Nunez de Balboa, the highest civilian honor in Pan ama. The government also gave her locks to the Panama Canal. She moved to Bryan in 1971 to settle and begin teaching ballet here, but Smith said she met a lot of trou ble trying to establish a school. “She had to fight for every space,” Smith said. “Every year it was a real search to find a place she could teach ballet in. We would roam all over town trying to find a place.” Mrs. Gee taught four to five classes a week, even when she was being treated for cancer, Smith said. “She was a rare genius in hen she said. “She was a genius bea her gift was so rare, not only: dancer, but as a teacher, too." Mrs. Gee donated a collectio: personal items to the Bryan Pn Library in 1973. The collection includes pin graphs of Dame Margot Fonti Anna Pavlova, Anton Dolinand' reyev, as well as letters and award from the Panamanian ernment. Mrs. Gee was a strong and d; plined woman to endure thei dent and forced retirement f ballet, the murder of her son. failure of her first marriage and pain of cancer, Smith said. “Needless to say, she was a markable woman,” she said.
