Poet Mary Heisey moves to the front cover this month with a whimsical spring rhyme and song. Mary is a regularly published poet. Not a square dancer, she nonetheless has a real feeling for the "spirit" of our activity. Dan Parkinson, our second March poet. had a humorous feature in September. 1983 ASD, with another slated for the future. Two presentations from Washington State Leadership Seminars find their way into this issue— one on communication which contains constructive criticism and helpful hints on writing, and the other on developing leadership talents within our clubs. Glen Stinson and Dan Hicks have made valuable contributions to these pages. Peg Lewis describes the fun of a youth square dance camp. If you're looking for get- acquainted games, read her article— the ideas are a bonus. We used one at our staff holiday party with spouses and it turned out to be great fun! And be sure to study Toini Kaartinen's delightful cartoon until the point is clear! We chuckle every time we see a back page. Just as we were ready to finalize the features. NiNi Harris sent her notes on the Emerald Isle's heritage in our American folk music...very timely, begorrah, and we in- serted it in time for St. Pat's Day and the wearing of the green square dance dresses! Clive Frazier is a director of Single Square Dancers U.S.A. and has done much to pro- mote the cause of single souare dancers. Don't pass over his article if you're not a single— much of the information holds true for any kind of a group you might wish to gather together.

The hog is not a nervous beast; He never worries in the least. He lives his peaceful life unshaken, But when he dies brings home the bacon. Speaking of animals, and going back to that Pasadena float, I wonder if you wondered what old Smokey Bear and Woodsy Owl were doing on the float. Well, in case you missed the significance, the whole parade theme ek was Volunteerism, and the square dance float came closer to applying the theme wit than many others we saw. Both Smokey and Woodsy are "living" symbols of the WF need for fire prevention and pollution prevention.

The Traverse City Festival weekend brought out many lovely ladies in eye- catching attire with matching mates. The work and color in Jack and Helen Sprague's outfits was impressive. Jack and Helen are from Escanaba, Michigan, but winter in Jensen Beach, Florida, where the sailfish club is located. Helen used a white polyester sheet she purchased on sale. The skirt has eight gores with a colorful blue and silver (Vogart's ballpoint paint) sailfish in each gore and on Jack's shirt. She used 12 yards of 1-inch lace for the trim. The sailfish club members all have the same skirt, but a varietyof tops. The out- fits are worn while demonstrating at Matching couples are pleasant to see fairs and shopping centers.

Exceptional Reliability— proven in years of square dance use. A $1,000. Value— but priced at just $725.! * • • Why the P-400 is the Finest Professional Sound System Available This 17-pound system, housed in a 14"x14"x5" sewn vinyl carrying Is easy to transport and set up, yet will deliver an effortless 120 R.M.S. watts of clear, clean power.

Yet this small powerhouse has more useful features than we have ever offered before: VU meter for convenient visual sound level indication Two separate power amplifiers Two separately adjustable microphone channels Optional remote music control 5-gram stylus pressure for extended record life (Others use up to 10!) Internal strobe BUILT-IN music-only monitor power amplifier Tape input and output Convenient control panel Exclusive Clinton Features Only Clinton has a floating pickup/turntable suspension, so that an accidental bump as you reach for a control knob will not cause needle skip. Only Clinton equipment can be operated on an Inverter, on high line voltage, or under conditions of output overload without damage. Only Clinton offers a dual speed control— normal and extended range (0-80 r.p.m.) and automatic speed change from 33 to 45 rpm. Clinton alone rates power output, supplies a comprehensive service handbook including SCHEMATIC DIAGRAMS for easy emergency service, and makes available plug-in components for such service.

For as long as you, the original purchaser, own your Clinton, we will supply loan equipment should you wish to return It for service.

6 Sketchpad Commentary "I'M OLD...I'M TIRED...I'M PROUD" For 98 years, I, Miss Statue of Liberty, have stood at your gateway on Ellis Island overlooking the channel of New York Har- bor. I proudly hold aloft the torch of freedom. I am one of your National Monu- ments sculpted by Frederic A. Bartholdi of France. I have seen 17 million immigrants stream past to seek new lives in America ...but I'm old. I'm tired and I'm proud. I have seen hurricanes, floods, explo- sions and still I've held that torch of freedom that is the symbol of America to all peoples, all continents, but you see I'm old, I'm tired...and I'm proud. I am standing tall, 151 feet high; I weigh 450,000 pounds and have held that torch that gleams in the night 305 feet above the base of my pedestal for nigh on to these 100 years...you see, on October 28, 1986, I will be 100 years old. Yes, I am old...I am tired and I am proud. My robe falls in graceful folds to the base upon which I stand, my right arm holds this great torch raised high in the air, my left arm grasps a tablet bearing the date of the Declaration of Independence. My crown, with high spikes like the rays of the sun, rests upon my head. At my feet is a broken shackle (seldom noticed, I dare say) rep- resenting a symbol of the overthrow of tyranny. Ture, I'm old...I'm tired...I'm proud. Yes, I'll soon celebrate my one hundredth birthday and with true feminine vanity, I'm proud, but not too proud to say, "I need your help." Your help to renew my copper skin that has been thinned by your air pollutants and acid rain. My right arm holding the torch has become so weakened, it may fall into the waters of New York Har- bor. but it can be replaced with your help. There are strange plants growing in my arm, my head is not on straight, my shoulder is weakened. Alas, I'm old...I'm tired...I'm proud. It is encouraging to know that help is on the way. A twenty-member commission is spearheading a drive to amass the $230 million to rejuvenate and rededicate me as Your Lady, Miss Statue of Liberty, to watch square dancers...

82 American Squaredance. March 1984 IN REAL LIFE We know a man who fits pipes for a living and a guy who does computer work for banks. RHYME TIME There's a vet, an electrician, an industrial technician and a fellow who welds seams in storage tanks. We know a gal who manages office buildings and one who collects coupons by the pound. There's a nurse, a part-time preacher and a half a dozen teachers and a guy who makes sure policies are sound. Some friends of ours make miniatures as a hobby. Some grow roses. Others run a little store. We know one who'll trump an ace and a trucker who plays bass and we know at least two painters, maybe more. We know several people who are shameless punsters, and at least one guy who never cracks a smile. We know readers. We know walkers. We know listeners and talkers, even one who was in politics for a while. We know people who work seven days a week and others just as busy, though retired. We know people quite successful and a lot a little less-ful and one couple who went back and got re-hired. We know recent-weds and people raising children. We know couples growing closer by the day. We know strugglers, we know errants and some pretty neat grandparents and a few of whom we really couldn't say. What it comes to is. we know the nicest people! We know man as God designed him and his wife. And whatever they are giving as they do their daily living doesn't matter. They're square dancers in real life.
