THE JOB Leeds Poly has the record for the highest number of graduates employed, Patrick Nuttgens, the Poly direc- tor, claimed last week at the degree ceremony. At the end of last year only 4.5% of 1984 graduates were unemployed as compared with the national average of between 10 and The 1984 graduate employment figures for Leeds University have not yet been published. According to Mr. Fairclough of the Poly Careers Service. Leeds Poly has always had a very good record on employment but last year was 'exceptional'. lie accounted for the success by the fact that Leeds Poly has a very large core of vocational courses - librarianship. accountancy, paramedical courses etc. and relatively few liberal arts courses as compared with other polys and universi- ties.

After all the build-up to the tour of this internationally acclaimed modern dance group, the material they produced on Tuesday night was pretty banal. All credit to the dancers who looked agile and energetic but the fault really lay with the choreography and the music. The potential for a dynamic performance was definitely there but until the third piece, the dancing never really came alive and was sluggish and inexpressive. 'Skyward' was far too simplistic and looked like another run-of-the-mill work turned out by a choreographer for a company of much less worth than the traditionally flam- boyant LCDT. The music, a new composition for piano and string quartet, entitled 'Clouds' was rather hackneyed in its portrayal of the ascent of the skylark as the birth of human hopes and aspirations. The second half of the piece per- formed only by male dancers did something to salvage the Company's reputation but many people emerged at the first interval feeling rather disillusioned with the whole perform- ance. The second piece 'Doublework' was more interesting and some of the dancing quite beautiful. Unfortunately, the music ruined it by the irritatingly repetitive quality of the amplified string quartet which never seemed to allow the dancers to break away from the slow, sculptured style into anything more athletic. The final piece in this first programme, 'Rite Electrik' was certainly much more enjoyable than either of the other two rather insipid pieces. Set in a sleazy night club with excellent leather costumes, and creative lighting, the atmosphere was • 'The Company perform Rite Electrtk - at last energetic and powerful. Again, the music and set disco-type dance sequences seemed to have gone past the point of impact and spoilt the potentially interesting theme of exhibitionism of over-simplification.

King Kurt's saxophonist 'Maggot' said that the London- born band were 'commonly known in the trade as the hair and foam bunch'. It is true, that due to bad publicity (that's if any publicity is bad) many people have not heard of King Kurt's reputa- tion to provoke mayhem and chaos Maggot believed that it was this 'destructive' image which was to blame for a curtailed British tour (February Gth-$th) as t lead to a reluctance on behalf of the club owners to book them.
