Group to dance at halftimes

‘Dance Cats ’ perform rock-Style jazz routines to pop music

By WENDY SMITH
Reporter

How ‘bout them dancin' ('ats"

Halftime this Sunday will sport a
little entertainment with perfor-
mances by the Dance Cats. a group
of women who will dance to the
tunes of the band and radio.

Donna Brittain. captain of the
group. describes them as a group
comparable to the UCLA Golden
Girls who perform dance routines at
halftime of home basketball games
The Dance Cats will do routines
composed by choreographer Diana
Evans,

Brittain held the position of head
majorette in the Wildcat Marching
Band last year and was chosen by
William H. Clarke. band director. to
serve as the group‘s captain.

“He could not pick a former
Dance Cat since this is our first
year. so he picked me. someone he
thought would be hardworking and
dependable." she said.

The Dance Cats. sponsored by the

band anti athletics department. was
formed this year 't'K has talked
about getting together a program
like this in the past couple of years.

and finally toward the end of band
season this school year they decided
to do it." Brittam said

(‘liff Hagan. athletic director. has
seen similar groups of dancers at
other schools and said he thought it
would be a good idea for [K

Out of the 55 women who tried out
last December. 16 women were cho
sen along with two alternates Appli-
cants had to compose a two- to
threetminute routine for their
tryouts Then Evans taught the fi-
nalists a routine. which was med for
the final tryouts. Brittain said

“I put together the dance routines
for the girls. and they WI“ be per-
forming two at every home game
starting this Sunday at the UK-Hous-
ton game." Evans said ‘Mr. Clarke
suggests the mUSIC the band is work-
ing on. and also we concentrate on
top-of-thechart music "

Clarke said the Dance Cats are
supplied with a tape of the band

Diana Evans

The type of dancing the Dance
Cats do can best be described as
rock. style and jazz to both tradi'
tional and popular numbers.
Evans said Their style can be
compared to that of "Flash.
dance." which is not quite as stiff
as the traditional drill team
movements. he said.

The women practice twice a
week with Evans. and then hold
practice every other day drilling
on what they have learned. Pres—

They said the second rocket probably will

tioned earlier. Shirley Maclaine.
Jack Nicholson and Debra Winger
star in director James Brooks‘ slice
of Americana with the central thrust
of the film surrounding three varied
relationships The performances are
virtually all Oscar material and
anyone who hasn‘t already seen this
humorous serious pictorial should
rush out to the cinema to see what
ey'erybody's been talking about

3 The Big (‘hill -- Lawrence Kas-
dan‘s character study of eight col-
lege buddies who reunite on the oc—
casion of their best friend's death is
both heartwarming and endearing
as they tackle the problems of a
changing world and getting older
The soundtrack accompames the
theme in that it includes all the hits

of the 605 and 7(5 which were such
an integral part of these characters‘
lives.

4 Fanny and Alexander —- Ingmar
Bergman's swan song is a charming
tour de force while it 15 also autobio~
graphical. The film contains many
visual elements that include some of
the finest sets ever to be seen on
film Life in the palace is opposed to
life in the church as the theme of
good and em] is epitomized in what
is one of Bergman‘s finest films
5 The Hunger — David Bowie. Ca-
therine Deneuve and Susan Saran-
don star in the most elegant and
chic vampire film to ever be seen in
the cinema. ThlS. however. did not
take away from the fact that it
made an intense. high-level hci‘ror
story With oh-so—much sophistication

al. shadowy hue that sets it as one of
the moodiest pictures of the year.
the film contains exquiSite perfor-
mances and equally good direction
6 Zelig ~ With this film. Woody
Allen bounced back from his recent
Bergman—worship and self-serving
tales about the horror of bezng ia'
mous and produced what may be his
finest film The story of a bizarre
character of the 1930s whose self
conscxous shyness forces him to fit
erally assume the appearance and
mannerisms of whomever he is
with. "Zelig" lucidly analyzed our
ludicrous tendency to interpret the
past in our own image as deftly as it
tossed out memorable one‘liners.
