While vacationing in New Eng- and. I visited Jacob's Pillow and watched Miss Alonso dance the Black Swan ballet with breathtak- ing loveliness. Her ovements were weer poetry in action. Rec Qng that this dancer's career had been sin-uptly interrupted when. she lost her eyesight. X was Interested in learning more of her story-

The eye " stemmed from a detached retina. she explained. and. for an entire year. she did not know if she would ever see again. She had to be in bed. with- out movent of her head, and to keep up her spirits. Alicia "pract- iced" her dance movements in her mind. working them out with her fingers. Continually she pictured herself going through her ballerina routines. As she expressed it, "For the first time, really. I saw myself dancing."

when I asked whether she felt her illness had detracted from her career. she said earnestly that she felt that her year apart from nor- mal llving, in which she had learn- ed to relax and find inner secur- ity. had contributed to life itself.

What helped most? "When we get in a jam in life. we always turn to a power greater than our own. and it is that which pulls us through. Alicia Alonso reflected.
