when they displayed the tal¬
ents of the Original Chinese Ac¬
robats of Taiwan. U.S.U:Prbduc-
tions sponsored the show.
The entire show contained a
beautiful myriad of colorful cos¬
tumes, traditional and modem
music, and plenty of juggling,
contortion' pyrotechnics, and
i magic. The troupe was nftade up
of 13 acrobats.    '»' *w
Ortr^acrobat sat on top of a 15
foot iicficycle while tossingbowls
on his head with his feet. He also
kicked up a teapot, a spoon, and
a lid, which landed perfectly on
-   the teapot
Another feat consisted of
riding a bicycle, that could be
taken apart and ridden in differ¬
ent formations. At one point, eight
of the acrobats got on the bicycle
with the original rider.
One of the most incredible acts
involved one woman who
climbed to the roof of the theater
by stacking chairs one on top of
another.
To heighten the drama, the
stack of about 10 chairs rested on
a table and four champagne
bottles. The audience would
cringe and gasp with each chair
brought to her.
. The audience clapped loudly
when an acrobat would balance
about 15 candles and four cham¬
pagne bottles on his mourn while
playingChristmas carols with an
accordion.
Many times, select audience
members would be asked to go
on stage and participate as assis¬
tants and guinea pigs.
The frenzied audience re¬
warded the efforts put forth by
allot the ensemble by giving them
a standing ovation at the of the
show.
Tour manager Ken Fouhai,
who lives in El Monte, California,
said "the tour is very grueling for
all of us." He also stated that
today, the group will have an¬
other performance in Southern
California.
One of the most challenging
aspects of the show is that after
the tour is over the arrobats must
leam an entirely different show
for nextyear's tour.
Fouhai has said that the tour
has been very enjoyable. "We re¬
ally enjoy American people," he
said, "and hamburgers."

tive, seeks" to deny education,
health and social services to un¬

During the rally/Teatro Tor¬
tilla, the Chieano theater group
on campus, performed a num¬
ber of skits depicting how, if
passed, Prop. 187 would affect
families.
In one scene, a man needing
immediate medical, attention
was denied hospital care be¬
cause he wasn't a citizen.
The skit also showed how
the la w created tension and con¬
fusion among Latino patients
and hospital officials^-—
In the second skit, elemen¬
tary students were targeted by
officials and forced out of sch....
because trieydidn'thaveproper

UNFORTUNATE^ TfflS IS WHERE
PEOPLE ARE PUTTING
TOO MANY RETIREMENT DOLLARS.
Ever^year, a lot of people make a
huge mistake on their taxes.They
don't take advantage of tax deferral and
wind up sending Uncle Sam money they
could be saving for retirement.
Fortunately, that's a mistake you can
easily avoid with TIAA-CREF SRAs.
SRAs not onlyeaseyour current tax-
bite, they offe> a remarkably easy way
to build retirement income—especially
for the "extras" that your regular pension
and Social Security benefits may not
cover. Because your contributions are     N
' made in before-tax dollars, you pay less
taxes now. And since all earnings on
your SRA are tax-deferred as well, the
money you don't send to Washington
works even harder for you. Dovyn the
road, that can make a dramatic difference
in your quality of life.       N
What else makes SRAs so special?
A range of allocation choices—from the
guaranteed security of TI AA to the
diversified investment accounts of
CREF's variable annuity—all backed
by the nation's number one retirement
system.
