4 American Sguategance August 1980 This summertime issue features a commencement message by Noah Garrls, superintendent of schools in Huron, Ohio. What he says is appropriate to all of us as we "commence" a new square dance season in a new decade. If you've never asked yourself what you "expect" of the future in square dancing, do it now. Cal Campbell, much in the news recently along with his wife, Judy, for their promo- tion of a square dance balloon, traces geometric designs in dances for us. Is his theory that dancers enjoy geometric flow the reason some of the newer calls seem so lackluster? Dorothy Brown gives us a short, short story, complete on one page, and good for summer reading. Don't look ahead to the ending. The center spread gives a look at contributors to square dance choreography over the years. Material for this page was contributed by Bill Burleson, Don Beck and the late Will OrtIch. All of our regular feature writers are included in this August issue, even though you'll notice fewer pages. We like to thank these faithful contributors whose copy ar- rives on schedule month after month. One reason square dancing continues on is the dedication and commitment of its leaders. Such qualities are found in the writers who prepare features for you monthly, always with the dread deadline monster creeping up and peering over their shoulders. Sincere thanks to all of them.

This August column is dedicated to our many square dance friends in Texas. All the material has a Texas 4 flavor. Don Buzzingham of College Station, Texas, sends along two dances he says are a must for every dance that he calls in the state. The first was named by Manning Smith, also of College Station, for a country and western dance hall in Bryan where this dance and "Cotton-Eyed Joe" are done quite often. LAKEVIEW SCHOTTISCHE FORMATION: No partner dance; in lines or couples all facing LOD, arms around each other's waists. RECORD: "Sweetheart Schottische" KIK-R206.

TURN AND LEFT THRU (Burleson -1197)

[ From facing couples or ocean waves, all turn thru, and after the pull by, courtesy turn your partner to end in facing From Gene Pearson, Groves, Texas: couples. (Left side dancers always I have two different definitions for swing courtesy turn right side dancers.) This is thru (one which states, "from right-hand usually called to half-sashayed couples, ocean waves, ends turn adjacent which allows a "normal" courtesy turn. dancers half by the right and then the From normal couples facing: swing thru, centers turn half by the left," and turn and left thru equals two ladies another which states that "from left- chain. hand ocean waves, the centers turn half EXAMPLES BY ED: by the right and then turn the ends half Heads lead right and circle to a line by the left"). After asking forclarification Pass the ocean, swing thru, the author of the first definition states, Turn and left thru, curlique "from left-hand waves, call left swing Split circulate, boys run thru." Which is correct? Left allemande ANSWER: Both definitions are correct Heads lead right and circle to a line (as far as they go). When in right hand Right and left thru, rollaway, waves, the ends do turn first by the right Pass the ocean, turn and left thru and then the centers by the left. I'm sure Square thru three-quarters the first definition refers to the standard Left allemande position and the second to the all posi- tion concept. Heads square thru four, pass the ocean Keep In mind that a swing thru Spin the top, turn and left thru always starts with a right hand; Pass the ocean, spin the top therefore, when in a left hand wave and Turn and left thru, left allemande the call Is swing thru the centers must turn half right first and then turn the Half-sashayed Couples Turn thru ends half left. You must call left swing thru if you wish the ends to turn first O from a left-hand wave. Conversely, If you call left swing thru from a right-hand wave, the centers will turn half left and then turn the ends half right. CJ
