It was a clever thought, but could stand more satire. "The concluding number, also by Evans, was l to and an Indian score by Mahapurush Misra. What I saw of it had a sensuous air. The dance contrasts movement in space with a sense of empty spaces an approach that finds an effective counterpart in the use of silence in Wengerds percussive score. 7 P.M. to 1 0 P.M. mmm Utahn Surrenders To Army TreatFor m Dispute Musical cdi-To-Du- ty 'Savoyards' American Jf youngsters dont know where the term Savoyard eoines from, they should know that it originated from the old Savoy Theatre in London that was built especially to present Gilbert & Sullivan operettas.
