American Squaredance, May 1983 Consider some of the important words that have changed lives. "Love thy neighbor," "All men are created equal," "Ask not what your country can do for cn onnoRML you, but what you can do...," "I love you," "Allemande left..." From the sublime to the ridiculous. right? Take another look, another thought. How many folks do you know whose lives were changed by their entry into the square dance activitiy? Within our limited knowledge, we can describe handicaps overcome, divorces averted and relationships enriched by the square dance experience. Of course, negative words have their effects, too. The quick put-down, the derogatory remark, the thoughtless omission of thanks or compliments or in- vitations to join groups, may drive dancers, as someone has recently stated, to go bowling. A favorite saying of ours is, "Lord, the "law" of a youth organization, but help me to watch my words today, for perhaps we should retain that early tomorrow I may have to eat them." Un- training in our adult relationships. fortunately, we sometimes do not have And while we're talking about choos- the chance to "eat our words," to ing words, callers, when you create your apologize.

American Squaredance. May 1983 Dance activities seem to be the focus it of this month's articles. Phyllis Dark BY-LINE highlights a special festival in the Spr- ingfield, Missouri, area, while Gaye Den. ley describes the best cloggers in Texas. One activity some dancers would rather omit is sneezing, and Bev Warner tells us why this happens to many and how to get help. Our old friend Al Eblen is back with a comparison to grapefruit pie. Sounds puckery! This month's poem is written by a British dancer, Clive Grey, whose wife owns one of the few SID shops abroad. The RID scene is represented by Harmon and Betty Jorritsma and an article on the quickstep. Your editors returned from the Callerlab Convention with but one day to press deadline, and the article on Page 35 is a recap of their Philadelphia impressions.

He calls only at one-night-stands, at &Id Zsvp summer afternoon campouts, in 90° temperature, which we believe warrants and excuses short sleeves. If he ever appears in situations other than that, such as at club dances, we'll be the first to criticize him openly and personally pull his plug.

His _op- original home was with the Fryburg (PA) Twirlers. Alex Alexander of Charleston, So. Carolina, told us the mascot wintered inthe south, but he even visited the Arctic Circle once, as the couple from the farthest point at any dance generally picks him up to take him on. A logbook attached to his cage tells the story, including visitations to Mish- awaka, Indiana; Bellevue.

It has been so rewarding to me to have received the amount of correspondence I have, regarding the number of senior groups doing solo dancing all over the world. The tact that instead of the very simple movements so popular with the Disco-type steps, now the solo instructors are using round dance terminology which takes less explanation and standardizes the steps and routines now being used. Much of the current material could be danced by couples, but is just as much fun danced as singles or solos. I am so pleased that the "older set" are enjoying the solo dances and I compliment the members of that set who are writing materials and choreographing dances that are keeping them all moving and happy. Roland Dion of Holly Hill, Florida, has sent me several routines. Following are two: TAMARAN FORMATION: Solo, no partners needed. Begin facing the music. MUSIC: TNT 165B ROUTINE: Done slowly and smoothly. INTRO: Wait eight counts. 1-4 Rock to the left. turn 1/4 to your right and do a two-step with the left. 5-8 Rock forward on the right, turn back to your left. half way around (face opposite direction) and do a two-step right. 9-12 Hitch six (back . back. forward: forward, forward, back) 13-16 Side, close, side. touch left: side. close, side. touch right. Repeat from the top.

HITCH DOWN BLUES FORMATION: Solo. Begin facing the music. MUSIC: Columbus Stockade Blues— Decca 25649 ROUTINE: Done slowly and smoothly, INTRO: Wait 8 counts. 1-4 Full box (side, close, forward: side, close, back:) 5-8 Scissors and check (side, close, cross & pause): two-step back 9-12 Hitch 6. 13-16 Hitch 4 and walk forward two steps. Every time you do the scissors and check, you turn 1/4 to the right. Repeat from the top.
