Most on their future. , J TS t$ V- - Buffy Lewis, who will be enter ing Viewmont High School, has a strong grip on her future. She wants to be professional skater. By Kurt Kidman Tribune Staff Writer don't really have a The Salt Lake Tribune, Thursday, August 19, 1982 firm grasp But Buffy Lewi. has a grip on the future as strong a vise. The future Viewmont High School sophomore is currently winning medals as an ice skater. In the recent Showcase for Skaters meet, held in Burbank. Calif., Buffy came home with three gold medals. She won the medals not in the typical ice skating competitions that you can see on television. She won the medals in three categories that require charisma, a bit of show business, and a lot of ice skating talent. The first medal came in Dramatic Interpretation. Get Emotional The idea here is to put something emotional across to the audience and the judges, said Buffy. You pick some slow music, and then you try to skate to the music, blending everything in together. My music is Your in My World. by Helen Reddy It's very slow and very pretty. The next gold medal event for Buffy was the Light It is the opposite of Dramatic Interpretation. Interpretation. "The Light Interpretation is my favorite event, because you really get to play with a crowd," said Buffy. The object is to pick a piece of music that will please a crowd and make them laugh. I play Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy," and it seems to get the crowd going. I like to skate around and wink at the people, and get them up on their seats. I guess its the show biz in me. The last event that Buffy won is by far the hardest, according to her. It is called Extemporary. Interprets Music The skater hears a piece of music three times about five minutes before she has to go out on the ice. After just hearing it three times, she presents a routine that is choreographed to the music. They hit me with a piece of the soundtrack from Rocky which was nice because Ive seen the movie before," said Buffy. Since you have no practice time with the music, you just try to use quick, short choppy steps when the music is fast, and long stretched moves when the music slows. Dancers, theater people, actors and actresses judge the events. Skating talent is judged, , performing before an audience is just as important. It isnt surprising then, that Buffy wants to Join an ice show when her high school days are over. "I'd like to travel a lot, and be in the ice show when my competitive days are over, she said. But Im going to college. Buffy plans on college for 10 years. It takes that long to become a brain surgeon. In preparation for her brain surgeon days, Buffy is already planning a curriculum in high school that involves science and math. But, she also wants to continue her hobby of designing clothes.
