Former NU gymnast Grace
to pursue Olympic dream
By Tony west
Staff Reporter
Former Nebraska gymnast Ri
chard Grace has a goal.
And he’s had it since he was
eight years old.
The 5-foot gymnast from Omaha
said ever since he started gymnas
tics when he was eight, he had
always wanted to compete in the
Olympics.
“It’s been a lifelong dream,”
Grace said.
Grace had done a great deal in
this past year to show that he is
ready to give it his best shot at
fulfilling that dream.
He won the 1995 NCAA paral
lel bars event on his way to also
winning the All-Around at the NCAA
Championships.
He was also a six-time NCAA All
American throughout his career at
Nebraska.
And although Grace almost didn’t
come to Nebraska, he said he was glad
he decided on becoming a Husker.
“There are no better coaches,” he
said. “I’m just lucky to have got a
scholarship offer and to have had the
opportunities that I had.”
Two weeks ago, Grace also showed
there was going to be no drop-off in
his attempt to reach his goal.
He won the U.S. Olympic Festival
parallel bars event, the vault and also
the All-Around.
“It was a really good experience,”
Grace said. “It has given me more
confidence in the events I’m going
to compete in for the USA Cham
pionships.”
The USA Championships are
scheduled to begin Wednesday and
will run through Saturday in New
Orleans.
To qualify for the Olympic tri
als, Grace will have to be one of the
top 21 gymnasts in the nation.
Grace would then have to finish in
the top nine to qualify for the Olym
pics in Atlanta.
However, Grace said he is at
tempting to not let the pressure get
to him.
“If you can’t compete or can’t
handle the pressure,you can’t make
it,” he said. “It’s not an easy task to
qualify for the Olympics; other
wise, everyone would make it.”
“Something ” lacks.. .something
By Sean McCarthy
Staff Reporter
The premise of“Something to Talk
About” sounded great. Hire director
Lasse Hallstrom (“What’s Eating Gil
bert Grape”) and screenwriter Callie
Khouri (“Thelma and Louise”).
Each has the ability to make heroes
out of average people rebellingagainst
their trapped lives.
Julia Roberts plays Grace King, a
woman who is smart, attractive and
feverishly committed to her family
and community.
However, she begins to lose touch
with herself along with her family.
This, of course, changes when she
spots her husband Eddie (Dennis
Quaid) getting very close with on of
his co-workers.
Roberts’ reaction to this scene
shows she can be a great actress with
the right material. From shock to
shame to anger, Robertsplays Grace’s
turning point to perfection.
Grace leaves Eddie and retreats to
her family for support, which she gets,
sort of. Her father, .Wyly (Robert
Duvall) shames her for separatingfrom
Eddie, who is a business partner.
It is Grace’s little sister, Emma Rae
(Kyra Sedgwick), who is fully sup
portive of Grace. With her headstrong
personality, Emma forces Grace to
look at what she is going to do about
her life.
Roberts shows she can be a great
actress with the right material. From
shock to shame to anger, Roberts plays
Grace to perfection.
Even though each character in
“Something” has problems with infi
delity, the characters are so down-to
earth that they don’t make an impres
sion. Only Sedgwick’s role sticks in
your head.
Though audiences may eagerly talk
about the issues “Something” raises,
they will rapidly forget the movie it
self as they walk out of the theater.
