Sean Lavery, 21. Soloist, New York City Ballet. At 6 ft. 1 in. and 165 lbs., he is strong enough to "partner" ballerinas through the most strenuous works. "It can be like pumping iron," he says, "if your timing is off. You can put her up there like a barbell, but it doesn't look good." Lavery has also shone on his own. His long legs and short torso emphasize his speed, a quality prized by Balanchine, who has cast Sean in his new fast-paced work, Kammermusik No. 2.

After the defeat, the farmers bunched wearily outside the Capitol and marched-some 2,000 strong-down Pennsylvania Avenue to the White House.

Another power behind Mary's throne is Edythe Harrison, the iron-willed president of V.O.A. A self-proclaimed promoter, she hounded-among others-her next-door neighbor Norfolk Mayor Vincent Thomas for support; the city finally built an orchestra pit in the Center Theater and refurbished it (at a combined cost of $100,000). She even, so the story goes, got a little help on the side from the Navy in transporting...
...Crimson pounced on starter Matt Cairone very early. Rick Pearce singled to right to lead off the first, was pushed over to third by Santos-Buch's double to right, and they were both driven in by a Stenhouse seven-iron fade double down the left field line...
