The early bird sees the shuttle
Lawrence residents will be able to see the space shuttle Columbia about 6:53 a.m. tomorrow. The shuttle will be traveling south and will appear 18 degrees above the west-southwest horizon. The shuttle will travel out of sight after it is about 60 degrees above the horizon. Total viewing time will be about one minute. NASA said that if tomorrow's skies are clear, the shuttle would look like a bright star. Columbia will be about 160 miles above the earth and have a crew of seven on board.

Piano concert will reunite father, stepson at Lied Center
By Chesley Dohl
Kansan staff writer

Juggling international performances, a professorship and recording contracts between them, two internationally-known pianists will come home to Lawrence on Sunday to perform on the Lied Center stage.
Sequeira Costa, KU professor of piano, and his stepson. Artur Pizarro,25, last performed together in Lawrence four years ago at Liberty Hall.
Costa said their busy schedules made it hard for them to find time to see each other, let alone find time to rehearse.

Before yesterday, the last time they rehearsed for their Sunday performance
was two months ago, when Pizarro left for a two-month tour in Japan and China.

Pizarro is leaving today for Washington, D.C. where he will perform tomorrow night at the Kennedy Center. Pizarro will return for rehearsal Sunday morning and the performance at 3:30 p.m.
Costa, too, said he had to learn to organize his time between teaching, recording and performances.
As the Cordelia Brown Murphy distinguished professor of piano, Costa practices four or five hours a day and teaches 18 hours a week at KU.
"When I travel, I'm gone up to 10 days," he said. "The worst problem is jet lag — I find myself sleepy in the day and wide-awake nights."
The pianist said the highlights of his career were his performances in South Africa, South America, Russia, China and at Carnegie Hall in New York. Costa just finished a three-CD set of the complete works of Rachmaninov with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra.
Costa said that Sunday would be a homecoming for him and Pizarro, to whom he began teaching piano when Pizarro was 5-years-old. Costa said at times, it was difficult teach someone who was so close to him. But, he said, it had been one of the most rewarding experiences of his life.
"It's been wonderful watching Artur progress through the years," Costa said. "Right from the beginning, he was very gifted."
Traveling much of his life and spending time in the nation's largest cities, Costa said that he had found a

true sense of belonging in Lawrence.
"I love this place," he said. "I've had enough of the big cities. This is a great country and place to call home."
Sunday's recital is a benefit performance for the chapel music program at the St. Lawrence Catholic Campus Center.

Costa said he and Lynn Trapp, director of chapel music and organist at the campus center, discussed the idea of a benefit recital this summer.
Trapp said the University and the St. Lawrence Catholic Center worked hand-in-hand on a lot of projects because many of KU's music performers used the center's facilities and programs.
"The money from the recital will help us maintain the St. Lawrence facilities, which indirectly benefits KU students," Trapp said. "We're happy to have KU students as part of our program in cooperation with the music department at KU."

PRINCIPLES #/ SOUND RETIREMENT INVESTING
9143E
IF YOU THOUGHT COLLEGE WAS EXPENSIVE, TRY PUTTING YOURSELF THROUGH RETIREMENT.
Think about supporting yourself for twenty-five, thirty years or longer in retirement. It might be the greatest financial test you'll ever face. Fortunately, you have one valuable asset in your favor. Time.
Time to take advantage of tax-deferral. Time for your money to grow.
But starting early is key. Consider this:
if you begin saving just $100 a month at age thirty, you can accumulate $154,031* by the time you reach age sixty-five.
Wait ten years and you'd need to set aside $211 a month to reach the same goal.
At TIAA-CREF we not only understand the value of starting early,we can help make it possible-with flexible retirement and tax-deferred annuity plans,a diverse portfolio of investment choices,and a record of personal service that spans 75 years.
