Five New Dances Named by National Dance Association
The National Association of Dancing Masters, meeting in Milwaukee, approved a committee report introducing five new dances for the coming season. The dances are the lyric, pompadour, delmar, sterling, and eros. The lyric resembles a polka while the pompadour follows a echo-like line, delmar blends redow n and two-step, sterling fuses minuet gavotte and waltz, and eros, the Cupid dance, serves as the objection.
