She is one of Ailey's most famous dancxers; her towering height and incredible talent create a magical aura around her. She is able and to turn leap while keeping her body as straight as a spear.

The elegant and evocative "Majestic," by Stern, a professor...
Eliot took the second-half kickoff, and hard-nosed running back Mickey Voltz spear headed a strong offensive drive. But Voltz & Co. only got as far as the Quincy 45, where Hall fumbled the ball into the waiting arms of a swarming Quincy defensive line...
