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."

Dance Concert opens tonight
The Winter Dance Concert in
334 Gerlinger Annex is a concert,
all right, but with a difference.
‘To us,” says Winter Concert
director Lawrence Hecox, “the
choreographer is the composer
and the dancer is the instrument.”
By SAM RAINEY
Tonight, Friday, and Saturday
nine “composers” will present
their individual expressions in
dance, ranging from the frustra
tion of being small to the spectacle
of a basketball game.
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.*
