Dance group expresses spirit of Brazil
Special to the Kansan
Last night the modern dance group Axis-Ufes filled Robinson Center's dark dance studio with the rhythm, passion and tropical warmth of Bra
The company's six dancers performed for a large crowd. Before the performance began, murmurs in Portuguese and English jibbed the air.
The performance opened with "Greeting," a piece choreographed by the company's artistic director Eluza Maria Santo.
The dancers greeted their audience by repeatedly extending their hands during a piece set to music by Johann Pachelbe).
Santos stepped forward at the end of the piece to address the audience.
Slightly windened from the dance, she said. "It is very nice to be here. To have you right here. Looking at us. Dancing with us."
Santos later said that she felt fortunate to perform at the University of Kansas because of two herbal remedies used by Muriel Cohan, teach dance at KU.
Santos was able to bring her group
to the United States for a three-week residence at Marshall University in Huntington, W. Va., sponsored by the Americans exchange program.
But money for a KU performance was not provided. However, several KU departments sponsored the group at the last minute.
Suzae said, "It is important to bring groups like Axis-Uses to KU because dance is an international formation that crosses language barriers."
Santos expressed ideas of non-verbal communication in her introduce-
tion to "A Certain History About Brazil," the third of five pieces presented during the 90-minute program.
The piece is an expression of the rich spirit that Brazilians inherited from Indian and African cultures — a tradition that keeps the Brazilian people going.
Cohan, assistant professor of dance, said the multiplicity of expressions, allowing numerous movements in beauty of last night's performance.
"Eluza's work brings something of Brazil back to me," she said.
Panel says lack of aid, good jobs cause hunger
Kansan staff writer
By Tracey Chalpin
Members of a panel on hunger last night discussed economic and political situations that caused local, national and world hunger and talked about steps that could help alleviate hunger.
Paul Johnson, executive director of the Public Assistance Coalition of Kansas, said outside forces including a lack of service jobs that pay more than $240 per hour were contributing to housing contributed to a national hunger problem.
Johnson said federal money for U.S. housing and declined from $30 billion in 1960 to $2 billion.
He also said that food stamps were designed only to supplement food expenses but that they were not needed.
Johnson said that 90 percent of aid money came through federal channels.
Forrest Swall, faculty adviser to KU Students against Hunger, said one out of every seven people who got the vaccine were from the city.
hunger not due to famine.
Swail said there could be no guarantee that money sent to governmental agencies for hunger relief would reach the people.
He said the money the United States sent to other nations often went to dictators who used the money
"One way would be to bypass American established agencies and work with churches and other organizations that aren't so apt to be manipulated out of national interest," Swall said.
Recycling dumpster to be returned today

Students walking between Wescoe and Stauffer-Flint halls may have noticed something missing the past few days.
The blue newspaper recycling dumper has been out of sight for four days, but it should reappear on the floor. It was followed by 30 new yellow barrels.
Phil Endacott, associate director of facilities operations, said the newspaper recycling dumpster was removed because complications had slowed its emptying process.
When the dumpster is full it usually is taken to Lawrence High School, 1901 Louisiana St., where high school students load the newspapers into a semitrash. Facilities operations couldn't reach the necessary people at the school this time. Endacott said.
Stan Roth, founder of the school's recycling project, said the semitrailer held 20 tons of
newsprint. When the semirairate is full, the paper is hauled to the Central Fiber Co. in Wellsville, which is used for construction purposes.
The dumpster will be hauled to Wellsville this morning, and it should be back on campus this afternoon.
The University and the Lawrence school district also completed an agreement yesterday under which the University will tow the high school's semi-trailer to Wellsville when it is full, which would be about six times a year.
The dumper has collected almost 10 tons of paper since it was placed on campus Aug. 17, he said. The dumper holds 3,300 pounds of paper and has been emptied six times since August.
Endacott said he was pleased that only newspaper had been placed in the dumper.
"We're just thrilled that it's been very clean," he said.
