...piece in particular had the dancers perfectly representing the sounds of the music with the movements of their bodies: “Percussive Us,” choreographed by Jeff Shade, Dance Program instructor and Bob Fosse prot??gé.

Still, Brezhnev's prot??g could find a place in a troika of the old guard that might include such other also-rans as Premier Nikolai Tikhonov, 78, or powerful Moscow Party Boss Viktor Grishin, 69. Grishin remains a favorite compromise candidate. He has an insider's view of the party bureaucracy and saw something of the world when he traveled abroad as leader of the official trade unions movement.
