The co-eds are go- ing to write their own "rave" article, and since this issue is now full to the brim, this column will be utilized. Frankly, so far in 1985, much of our mail has had a distinctly "blue" note. The traveling co- ed has also heard many mournful stories in his travels. We also have been type- setting the comments from the LEGACY surveys— dancers are speaking out and many are far from happy! We have a tendency to ccho and re-echo all this, but let us point out that there are still good things happening in the square dance picture. Two weeks ago our own club danced to a young caller who was travelling through the area. He is not per se a traveling caller, still working hard on developing a strong square dance pro- gram in his home area. We were very im- not-so-great.

14 40th Anniversary Year American Squaredance, April 1985 EVALUATING YOUR COMMUNICATION SKILLS by Mary Duquin Pretentious Pete: Never admitting to an error. Pretention Pete finds he doesn't get the respect he demands because he doesn't show any for his dancers. When he speaks, they tune out because what he says is usually negative. Pretentious Pete has not yet learned that he cannot demand respect: it must be earned. Do you have credibility with your dancers or are you like Pretentious Pete? Rate your credibility. 1 2 3 4 5 Very Low Very High Caller Badnews: Most of the words and actions of Caller Badnews are negative, sometimes almost hustiie. sne frequently criticizes the dancers, increasing their self-doubts and destroying their self-confidence. She is slow to praise. Are you primarily positive in the messages you deliver or are you like Caller Badnews? Rate the degree to which your messages are positive or negative. 1 2 3 4 5 Negative Positive The Judge: The Judge constantly evaluates the dancers instead of giving them instructions. When dancers err, the Judge places blame rather than providing feedback or information about how to correct the error. When dancers do well, the Judge cheers but does not know how to instruct them to achieve advanced levels of skill. Do you give ample feedback and instructions or are you like the Judge? Rate the extent to which the content of your communication is high in information or high in judgment? 1 2 3 4 5 High in Judgment High in Information Fred Fickle: You are never sure what Caller Fred Fickle will say next. Today it's one thing, tomorrow it's another. Last week he told the dancers it was important to learn the new OS and then he didn't call it for the next two dances. Are you consistent in your communication or are you like Fred Fickle? 1 2 3 4 5 Inconsistent Consistent Caller Gabby: Caller Gabby is the most loquacious person you ever met. She constantly gives instructions and advice to dancers. She is so busy talking that she never has time to listen to the dancers. It never oc- cured to her that her dancers might like to tell her something rather than always being told. Are you a good listener? 2 3 4 5 Not Good Very Good Stoneface: Old Stoneface never shows emotion. He doesn't smile, wink or give his dancers a pat on the back. Nor does he scowl or express disappointment with them. You just don't know how he feels. which leaves some new dancers feeling insecure. Are you able to communicate nonverbally or are you like Old Stoneface? Rate your nonverbal communication skills. 1 2 3 4 5 Weak Strong Professor Gobbledygook: The Professor just isn't able to explain anything at a level understandable to his dancers. Either he speaks to them as if they were fellow professors or so circuitously that the dancers are left confused. In addition, the Professor, who is used to dealing with abstractions, is unable to demonstrate the skills of square dancing in a logical sequence so that the dancer can grasp the fundamentals. Are you able to provide clear instructions and demonstrations or are you like Professor Gobbledygook? Rate your ability to communicate instructions. 1 2 3 4 5 Weak Strong Caller Jellybean: Caller Jellybean just doesn't understand how the principles of reinforcement work. Although he often gives praise to his dancers, he reinforces at the wrong time. When laced with dancer's er- ror, he either lets it pass or comes down too hard on the dancer. Do you understand the principles of rein- forcement or are you like Caller Jellybean? Rate your skill in rewarding and correcting dancers. 1 2 3 4 5 Not skilled Highly skilled

While camping with a square dance group last summer, I discovered these great looking lawn chairs. Jerry Fore- man, Flushing, Michigan, picked up the idea while traveling through the south. He and Opal and friends were at a flea market when they first saw macramed chairs selling for $45-75. Jerry's friend bought the book on Macrame for fur- niture and passed it on to the Foremans. The technique is called "cording." It is worked with macrame cord and two cro- chet hooks. You can make anything that has four sides to work around, not only Jerry took the instructions, two old chairs but footstools, rockers, lounges, aluminum chairs with torn webbing, four magazine racks, wall hangings, coas- hours of his time and turned them into ters, room dividers.

HEM-LINE by Bev Warner

Lucy Simlik of the Coleman Hicks and Chicks wanted a versatile dress to wear with different colored petticoats and ac- cessories. She chose a white hark- ground with a tiny flowered print of pinkish red, blue and lavender flowers. When she wears a red petticoat, she then adds red satin bows and sash. She does the same with blue, lavender and pink. The bows at the neckline she at- taches with tie tacks; they make them decorative and easy to remove. Lucy and her hubby, Joe, are very creative people—Joe with woodworking and Lucy with her sewing and other crafts. They dance in Coleman, Michigan.

RHYME TIME

EASTER SQUARE Four couples met to plan for spring While snow was on the ground. They talked and thought and tried to see What makes a dance go round.

"We haven't had an Easter Dance In, oh, so many years." "Let's give ourselves a springtime treat With lots of atmosphere!" "Your bunny cake with coconut We'll fill the hall with tulips, And jelly beans on top, Lilies, daffodils, and such; Plus pastel punch should make Hand-colored eggs, and give the place Our Easter dancers really hop!" A decorator's touch." "If I know Russ, he'll have some call "If time permits, we'll even clean—" For rabbits, lambs and chicks—" "That place could stand some paint!" "Well, if he doesn't, he'll concoct "Of course, when we get dancing, Some 'runny babbit' tricks!" We don't notice what it ain't!" "I can't wait until it's April!" "The gals can model bonnets, "I can't wait until we're there, And the guys unusual ties, Enjoying dancing friendship With homemade Easter baskets With the folks at Easter Square!" For the ones that win a prize." Mary F. Heisey

THE PIG THAT CAME TO LESSONS How many club members can say they went through lessons with a pig in atten- dance? One club boasts of this oddity— Franklin Squares of Galesburg, Illinois, in the middle of pig farm country. It all started two years ago when Evelyn Franklin came to the club's Halloween party dressed as—you guessed it. She wore a rubber sow mask, a pig wig, pink longjohns complete with a series of baby bottle nipples attached, and a knotted rope tail. Evelyn is the wife of the club caller, Novis Franklin. The gag persisted long after Halloween, and club members showered Evelyn with pig- gies of all kinds—wooden, ceramic, glass and stuffed. She began to collect them. Then the ultimate experience happened. At a Sunday night lesson series, Herb and Georgette Rucker brought her a live one with a collar and leash, and the pig, "Porky Oink" developed a very real interest in square dancing, providing a lot of fun at all ses- sions. Now we hear that Novis is teaching the little rascal to call, and the novice Novis im- itator is really ham-ming it up with the best of them, preparing to bring home the bacon! ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• • RUTH & REUEL deTURK THE HOURS: • Mon.

The first dance this month is one I "researched" from "Toots" Tousignant of Brocton, Mass. He uses it as a "breather" during the evening or as a "warmer upper." I've had great success with it. I affectionately call it... TOOTS' WARMER UPPER FORMATION: A long line of men facing a long line of women. Or two lines of persons facing one another. MUSIC: Jive Talking. RSO-S0-510 by the BeeGees ROUTINE: After the intro: 1-2 Right heel forward, step on right foot. 3-4 Lett heel forward, step on left foot. 5-12 Strut forward eight steps beginning on right toot, passing partner by the right shoulder. 13-16 Vine right three steps. turning back to face partner on count sixteen. (Step right on the right foot, step behind the right with the left foot. step right again with the right foot, and then turning 180° turn right face to face other line stepping on the left foot.) The music is most enjoyable. It can be found the "Golden Oldies" section of most record shops.

Marie Tueth of St. Louis shared this one with me after the Mini-LEGACY meeting in Belleville, Illinois last fall. It is a fun circle mixer from her one-night-stand materials. YAKETY SAX (Variation) FORMATION: Double circle, inside hands joined.
