Alan:

I suppose you'll get a few dozen of these, but here's a copy from my file.

Gail is very insistent that dancers dance in and out on bars 23-24 and NOT
_ladies roll away with a half sashay_ that I (and she !) have seen some
dancers do. Also, in bars 29-30, the balance in and back should transition
into the reformation of the two original lines (in progressed places, of
course) so the two-hand turns at the end are _neatly_ done in the structure
of the four couple longways set.
