And campus audiences can watch for free. A disciple of the art of "free juggling,” Miller performs in the EMU basement near the Ride Board. “I'm free and easy," says the tall, thin blonde. “I get most of my tricks through improvisa tion.” Miller embellishes simple juggling patterns with dips and doodles. But he never loses control of a routine, even while discussing politics and religion with passers-by who stop to gawk and talk. Recently Miller debated the finer points of Christian theology with two Christian campus missionaries while maintaining perfect concentra tion on the airborne balls. Miller wasn’t always an ac complished juggler.“I’ve been at it for seven long years," he says. He started juggling at age 12 out of a desire to learn someth ing new and different. "I was in England and I was bored. So I got this crummy little book and taught myself.” Seven years after picking up that book, Miller is ready to capitalize on his juggling skills. In fact, soon he may return to Europe with his enlarged bag of juggling tricks. Miller works with partner Dave Lichtenstein, who Miller refers to wryly as "my clone.” Currently, the pair are working to master the new routines they hope to take to the sidewalks and cafes of Europe next fall.

"Amsterdam, Mun ich, Basel, Paris, Barcelona, Rome, you name it.” . Miller’s voice bubbles when he talks about his European plans. He can hardly wait to pack up his 20 balls, six clubs and seven torches and hit the road. But he is a bit apprehensive about the upcoming trip. He’s been to Europe before, but felt like he was on a long leash to home much of the time. “Every time I’ve gone to Eu rope I’ve been on a tight budget, and I don’t want to do it again.” CASH For Textbooks Mon.-Fri. Smith Family Bookstore 768 E. 13th 1 Bl. From Campus ■ Ph. 34 S-1651 This time, Miller says he hopes his juggling act will bring in enough money for he and Lichtenstein to live in style with out having to call home for funds. He is uncertain about his long-term professional future as a juggler. “If I can make good money doing it, I’ll continue as long as people pay me," he says. Well-paid or not, Miller prac tices every day to refine his act. In addition to his daily sessions in the EMU, he juggles at home during study breaks and in between scooping ice cream and serving sandwiches at a local ice cream parlor. Miller welcomes others to join his act in the EMU but laments that he doesn’t always have en ough balls for everyone. But there’s room for people who bring their own equipment and want to practice with Miller. “It’s Juggling 324,” he says. “There is no instructor. Just be free and freaky."
