Dancer slips shoes
to troupe for benefit
CALGARY, Alberta (AP) — She
got right to the pointe.
Eight-year-old Renee Crous want
ed the slippers off Mikhail
Baryshnikov’s feet for an auction to
help her ballet troupe stage a ben
efit for a hospital. So she wrote him
a letter.
On Wednesday, she got a spe
cial delivery from New York City.
“He actually answered me,”
gasped Renee, fingering a pair of
rather tattered, flesh-colored ballet
slippers autographed by the dancer.
Inside the shoes was the nick
name “Misha” printed in faded let
ters. Baryshnikov also sent a
signed photo and Renee’s letter,
on which the dancer’s 4-year-old
daughter had scribbled a picture.
The used slippers are rare. The
49-year-old Baryshnikov has
danced barefoot since 1990.
Bidding will start at $1,000.

La Boheme
Continued from Page 3
Cranor said the National
Company is the best touring
opera in the nation and the
audience can expect to see a
spectacular performance.
“Everything the New York
City Opera does is worthy of
its own opera house,” he said.
“La Boheme is the most appro
priate and probably the opera
that 20-somethings can relate
to the most. Such a combina
tion will make for a spectacu
lar production.”
La Boheme, the first opera of OPAS' current season, is playing Saturday at 8 p.m. and Sunday at 2 p.m. in Rudder Auditorium.

Schneider said she is proud of her Nirvana
album collection, which includes all the albums,
including several imported records.
“I am really a fanatic about Kurt, but not to the
extreme or anything,” Schneider said. “I mean, I
am not going to name my kid
‘Kurt’ or anything.”
Schneider said her friends
sometimes criticize her idol
ization of the musician. They
question Cobain’s addiction to
heroin, as well as his suicide.
“They think it is a pretty
pathetic idolization of some
one, but I don’t care,”
Schneider said. “He was an
extremely talented musician
who played a big part in the
history of rock 'n’ roll.”
Tejano singer Selena, like
Cobain, also died at a young
age. Salina Gonzales, a sopho
more business major, greatly
admired Selena not only for her
music, but also for the qualities
she possessed as a woman.
“I love listening to Tejano music, and hers was
different from the other kinds of music out there,”
Gonzales said. “But I really admired her because
she was a great role model for Hispanics.”
Gonzales said her esteem for Selena goes
beyond simply buying her music.
“I own all the CDs, but I also have the two
books written about her. A little area in my room
has posters of her and there is a little clock with
her picture inside it,” Gonzales said. “I have pret
ty much everything of hers— well, maybe not
everything, but I own a lot of her stuff.”
Gonzales said public grief following Selena’s death
“I own all the CDs,
but I also have the
two books written
about her. A little
area in my room
has posters of her
and there is a little
clock with her pic
ture inside it.”
Salina Gonzales
on late Tejano star Selena
proved not only the popularity of Tejano music, but
also the power of the Hispanic community.
“I remember trying to get the magazines like
People and Texas Monthly with her on the cover,”
Gonzales said. “They were all sold out. They were
extremely hard to get.”
This past summer, the world’s eyes witnessed
the 1996 Summer Games in Atlanta, Ga. Among the
competitors was Dan O’Brien, the American
decathlete, who was favored to capture the gold.
However, many people remembered
O’Brien’s notable absence from the
1994 Summer Games in Barcelona.
During the Olympic trials,
O’Brien failed to qualify for the
Olympic team, even though he was
the reigning world champion in the
decathlon. Shoe manufacturer
Reebok had built up a multi-million
dollar ad campaign surrounding the
impending face off between O'Brien
and Dave Johnson. The famous
“Dan and Dave: To be Settled in
Barcelona” slogan quickly ended.
Kendall Madden, a junior agri
culture development major, said
O’Brien’s competitive spirit in
Atlanta inspired him.
“I admire the dedication and
patience he had to have in his heart
to wait four years,” Madden said.
Madden first learned of O’Brien in the fall of
1994, during his freshman year on the Texas A&M
track team. He said some teammates compared
their scores to those of professional athletes such
as O’Brien, and he realized how far he had to go.
Madden said everyone can learn something
from O’Brien.
“The way he competes, you can tell he is not
self-absorbed as some people are when they get
to that level,” Madden said. “People can see how
he has learned to achieve the goals in his life and
learn from that.”

marriage annulled — a proceeding
she doesn’t recognize.
Kerry, D-Mass., divorced Julia
Thorne in 1984 after a 14-year mar
riage. He wed Teresa Heinz,
heiress to the Heinz food fortune,
in 1995.
Kerry and Heinz are Catholic;
Thorne is Episcopalian. The
Roman Catholic Church does not
recognize divorce and holds that
annulment, a finding that true
marriage never existed, is the only
way to end a marriage.
Thorne doesn’t recognize the
validity of an annulment, but
she won’t oppose his request,
she said.
