The Rockville Carnival will
close most successful week, Sat
urday, August 10, with a glitter
bug" contest. Mr.. Dave Bailey
and Miss Virginia Sudduth, Rock
vile, will be in charge.
Untrammeled by prejudice OF
inhibition, the essential character
istics of "Jitterbugging" are
humor, rhythm and complete
transference into a mystic mood
bordering on voodooism. The pos
turing in this dance is as stylized
as in the ancient funeral dances
of the Haitians.
With sleepy eyes focused on ar
inner object, ones whole being
becomes suddenly transformed tx
a dynamo of activity foot il
thrown carelessly to the North
the partner either ducks, feints
or jumps it and then with tbs
suddenness of lightning the verte-
bra is completely dislodged only
to find itself in another section
of the dance floor, soloing with
memories.
Saturday night wild see the
most modern forpa of mayhem
legitimately done to music.
Couples will be judged OF
their ability to dodge, jump, fall
expression Of pain and incoher
ence, agility, acrobatic and lacl
of ballroom dancing. Everyone
is invited to attend.
