Critics say that nio other. pair 'of young, dancers in the country have the exquiàite. feeling of. unity. of warmth and lyric beauty that is pos- sessed in so ,marvelous a-degree by: Miss Corneli -and Mr. Graif, 'and that tirsense of rhythm in ensemble dancing equals that found, 'se veral years ago, in the duets ofKreftz4erg and Georgi. Miss Corneil, who is slight, fair, and delicately graceful, finds in her partner, who is dark, exotic, and almost electrically lithe. an incomparable foil.
