The Changes --


John Millar (p. 172, sez)

A1&A2: The changes
B: 0: Heads face partners and step back while sides move in to form lines of 4
      on the sides.  
   1-4: Along the sides, ends take inside hands with nearest 
        middle and slip 4 slips to change places with other couple in same line
       - the couple going right pass behind, the couple going left in front;
       balancer.

   5-8: With a different couple, make right hand stars and turn them half-way,
        ending by falling back into the opposite line.

  9-12: In the opposite line, chasse and balancer (same rules as before).

 13-16: In groups of four at the ends, circle to the left half way and fall 
        back into square formation.
