...with the feelings of euphoria surrounding the ruggers' robbery of the title away from UC-Berkeley--which had won the first three titles since the national tourney was conceived--still in the air, the squad's initial feelings of neglect by the Athletic Department seem to be subsiding...
...restructuring of the country's foreign loan obligations (although last week Argentina, Brazil, Colombia and Mexico were reported to be discussing in general terms various proposals for repaying their debts after a grace period that has yet to be determined). Instead, his administration seemed at first to neglect economic concerns in order to concentrate on human rights and labor issues.

Adding insult to neglect, Baryshnikov and Anastos even bring on a glamorous masked lady (Leslie Browne) whom the Prince (Patrick Bissell) mistakes for Cinderella. The idea may be a bow to Odile in Swan Lake or several figures in Balanchine, but whatever the source, love's counterfeit has more vitality than its true image...
