By B. J. GEISER The story began years ago with the Prodigal Son striking out to face the “real" world. Not unlike young people, the Prodigal Son tripped on his first step and fell into bad company—pigs. He ate their fodder until one day the lights flashed and the gears meshed—there must be a deeper meaning to life. With a snort and a sigh, the Prodigal Son returned home to a welcomed roast beef dinner. The fable has two lessons. One—you are what you eat, not with whom you eat and secondly, pigs don’t eat that bad. The “fodder" the pigs ate supposedly is carob. Carob, an evergreen tree with pea family ties, is an excellent source of protein and sugar. Carob has Mediterranean origins and ac tually is the sweet pulp found within the 4-8 inch pods. The carob seed, worthless as a food source, is the weight used by jewelers to measure gems, the carat Carob Cheesecake, the recipe below, was given to me by someone in the reading audience The Prodigal Son will never know what a delight he missed. Roast beef is one thing, but carob cheesecake is a subtle sensation The recipe is so simple. But look out, it's real easy to get piggish."

Their dance form is called "modern," but that term has be come too restrictive to satisfy Hecox. “People think that every little move in modern dance must be analyzed, that it has to mean something profound,” he says. “Dance should also be enjoyed for movement s sake.” For Paula Harrington, the idea her dance is trying to convey is most important. A senior, her pre sentation “Every Day is Small” opens the Winter Concert. “I want the audience to recog nize something in the motions,'' she says. “My dance is creating impressions.” Her dancers ponder life from under tables and atop ladders, with motions gleeful and de pressed. May Cuelho, who will perform solo “Moods," her own piece, feels that the audience should leave with an impression of having been involved in something Viewing dance is a visual and emotional experience,' she says. You should step out of the world for a little while when you watch modem dance. It is an experience you and the dancer share.” Dance, according to Webster's, is a "rhythmic and patterned suc cession of movements.” It is not always as uninteresting as its de finition. Kris Leinbach expresses in her presentation the rhythm and ex citement of a monumental Mac Court battle, and Heidi Parisi port rays a starkly sinister spider. One dancer pointed out that though their movements have been planned by the chorog raphers, the dancers have equal opportunity to be creative. "What a dancer performs won’t be exactly what the choreog rapher sees because well, people are people,’' he said. “Everybody is different. I can only do what feels right to me.” Arranging the presentation to “flow together into a single unit”, as he terms it, is director Hecox. “One thing we’re trying to do,” he says, “is to give people a new ex perience in choreography, beyond folk dancing style.” Parisi might be reflecting the spirit of the Winter Concert with her feeling for dance. “I dance be cause it’s the most satisfying means of creative expression. But it’s also a lot of fun.” Admission to the 8 p.m. show is $1.* PIZMS 1225 Alder 345-2628 Just off Campus Live Music Wednesday and Friday Nights 9-Midnight AH sandwiches are available on your choice of bread.
