The Square Dajice
As She Is Swung,
j f i By GRAHAM IIORNLEV , invitation thoy Have received from
, ' , pr. Lloyd Shaw, dlatinguiBhed
Another , mark Can be chalked |4 u t
on College 1 Station’s list of tal/
ented and civic-minded people, for
truly Nita and Manning Sipith*
' “the dancing Smiths,’’ are such a
couple. / ' '
For the past few months Nita
and Manning have been quite busy
spreading the "square dancing doc
trine” through out our part of the
state in particular and Texas and
the midwest in- general. , Aside
from .-having taught square dan
cing this past spring in Hearne,
»Madisonville, x Brenham and all the
other ^neighboring towns here
about, the. Smiths are now conduc
ting square dancing classes at
Stewart Beach in Galveston-plus,
of course, their regular Thursday
night session at the Pinfeather
Club.
When asked about her back
ground In square dancings Nita
stated that, “Being a West Tex
an, I have either been square
dancing or watching square dah-
clng as long as I can remember.”
As for Manning, ia comparative
| newcomer of 10 years, he recalls
first seeing square dancing at
Camp Stewart, the hoys camp
in Kerrville mn by former A. &
M. line coach. Bill James.
„ But regardless of which has been
dancing the longest, the iSlniths
.are considered to b^ one of the best
couples doing eriiibition square
dancing and quite naturally*, the
beat of teachers. E vldenee of their
excellence is beat illustrated by the
.■ . " ■, ,..J
.- a-, r r • .
authority on square and folk dan
cing, to attend his Cheynne Moun
tain School this August In Color
ado Springs, Cojlorado.
^ While' chatting with the Smiths
about the ^numerous patterns or
sets used in square dancing, such
as “The Texas Star,” "Sally Good
in’," and “The Wagon Wheel’’, we
got into a discussion as to the rel
ative merits of square dancing as
compared with other forms of dan
cing.
Both Nita and Manning w'ere
agreed that in no other form of
dancing do you see such a spir
it of good fellowship and whole
some recreation. In fact, the
Smiths were first prompted to
start teaching square dancing
chiefly because of their intense
mutual interest in community
recreation. ’ • . , ,
Manning, with his background
in coaching and Scout work, and
Nita with her work with Girl
Scouts, dancing classes and the
Cotton Pageant, of W’hich she has
been director for several years,
proved the ideal team to promote
and sell the idea of square dancing
for fun.
‘The Smiths have received many
invitations from various groups
outside this state to exhibit their
square dancing ability. They have
also officiated at the Alfalfa Fes-
t i v a 1 in Hearne, the Madison-
ville Sidewalk Cattlemen's Asso
ciation, 1 the State Square Dance
Festival and many other such
gatherings.

It sets up a major issue as Dem

a "subsidy" apd a "dole."
