SHOULD KAFKA remain between covers? The Cambridge Ensemble, a resident theatrical company, thinks not. Compiled by Peter Sander, guest director from Brandeis University, Kafka: The World of Parable has some genuinely inspired ideas about staging and the unstagable.

He acknowledges that the modern college basketball player has other interests that compete with basketball. "It used to be that you were either one thing or the other, either a student or an athlete," Sanders said. "But the young ballplayer growing up now has a lot of other interests.
