Orphie Marcellus American Squaredance, July 1990 very July we come around to a E discussion of square dance fashions. Some interesting things are happening! * First of all, let's agree—we're not advocating either shorts or slacks on the dance floor. In fact, those who are com- pletely happy with current square dance attire should continue to wear it. * Read the letter about attire in "Grand Zip." We know from many sour- ces that this is happening all over the square dance world. Let's not pretend that everyone is wearing full regalia every time they square up for a dance. Pictures have been sent to us from conventions show- ing dancers in T-shirts and jeans. Is this an image we want to project? * We are beginning to see a few prairie skirts and longer fashions at ion, as we see it, would be for a choice festivals, conventions and in the shops. of styles fitting many different physical * Someone told me we should get figures and budget figures. We need to the word to manufacturers that skirts need keep emphasizing skirts for dancing, but to be lengthened a little.

Jim Wheeler, well-known for his partner sessions at Callerlab, wrote one article and sent another by a caller's wife who shall remain nameless. Walt Horoschak wrote about discovering the joy of square dancing after years of thinking dancing was "fer" girls. A "researched" article by Dick and Sue Snell gives some hints on new sewing products. More generally speaking, Jo Jan Nunley this month urges us to be "firecrackers," while Al Eblen reminds us that age really doesn't matter at all, unless you're a cheese. Jim Schnabel recommended the reprinting of the article on wheelchair dancing, hoping, we think, that more callers and dancers might take part in this generous sharing of our activity. Last but not least, Ron Bradish reminds us of an important aspect of the activity. Happy Fourth of July, and all the rest of it, too! 1. A to Z Engravers 65 26. Enis Enterprises 85 51.
