Princeton's Alan Fine, whom Hackett beat in the last leg of this event to clinch last month's dual meet, swam leadoff this time and gained a slight edge over Cooper. But Pyle and Mack made up the deficit against Princeton's Howard Nelson and Andy Saltzman, to set the stage for the anchormen and Princeton's dramatic 364-356 victory...
THAT WAS THE THEME of last week's recitals, as it has been of all Cunningham's choreography: the basic processes of the human body's motion, discerned with a painstaking and endlessly refreshing eye. Like a painter absorbed in something as slight as the fall of light on a glass jar, Cunningham is fascinated by the eloquent detail: a dancer's leg arcing upward like a searchlight against the sky, the drift of weight in space when the body leans slowly backwards, dancers bounding across the stage like stones skipped across water. The patterns aren't only visual, either...
FROM SUCH SLIGHT BEGINNINGS--a weight change, a fleeting gesture--Cunningham builds dances of astonishing variety and imagination. He is one of the few choreographers whose complexity of motion suggests the intricacy of the body's inner processes...
...play guitars and drive them old trucks/Let 'em grow up to be lawyers and doctors and such"), you know this album is going to have some punch and humor. The crazy, whining guitars on "Mamas" come back for an encore in "I Can Get Off On You," perhaps a slight stab at Waylon's Nashville coke bust last fall, and a general paean to the powers of love...
...medley relay should go to Harvard, with Pyle, Tuomo Kerola, Cooper and Hackett swimming for the Crimson. Princeton's breaststroker, John Christensen, should have a slight advantage over Kerola in what Pyle calls the "shakiest of our three relays," but backstroker Pyle should be able to edge Princeton's Steve DeCosse. And if it's close going into the last leg, you can count on the awesome Mr. Hackett, whose 45.0 freestyle split at Yale last weekend is tops in the East...
