Still others liked most his spirited cowboy dance to Turkey In The Straw, a piece of authen- tic Americana, and his four danc- es based on American Folk Music. I think it was in the Flamenco Dances that the old Ted Shawn was most evident In these danc- s he was able to employ all his well;loved and delightful little mannerisms and facial expres- sions that have always captivat- ed his audiences. We loved these things, and we still love them. It is also my opinion that more | young people should have Ted. Shawn last night. seen They !could have seen how much he has influenced the dances they know today. A widespread belief exists among the younger gen- eration that the dancers who are their idols today are doing some- thing entirely new and unheard- of before. We oldsters know bet- ter, for we saw Ted Shawn! |.

He was young, he was handsome, and his dances {had to be seen to be believed. ‘Such wonderful grace and beauty ‘you won't see today, because there just aren’t any new Ted Shawns. ! So, last night, I held) my breath. A complicated series of arithmetical calculations, using my own age as a base, resulted in the setting of Ted Shawn’s pre- sent age as somewhere between 55 and 63. He won't be able to dance a step,” I’ told myself. ° “He': will creak ad groan. dwhenc he /ries to bend. He -will- be -stiff -and portly. His' muscles will sag:)His face) will; sag. His tummy will sag. My spirits will sag. It will all be depressing and pathetic. Mustn’t go.” But I did go ,and I had the surprise of my life. Ted Shawn is no decayed has-been. He does not sag anywhere that can be seen in even the briefest costume, end his da His figure is more mature, and! he is a few pounds heavier, but} his grace is undiminished, and in his clo: itting black trousers, bolero jacket and wide-brimmed Spanish hat, his costume for the Flamenco dances, he did not seem more than thirty. I sat entranced. He was so nearly his twenty-five years ago self. He was so nice to look at. He was so nice to watch danc- ing. And he still has those little wonderful mannerisms that I re- member so well, little hand-flicks to acknowledge applause, a sud- den whimsical grin, a quick, ten- der little eyewink.
