Manual Amendments
As many of you are aware, the existing edition of the Manual has a few typographical errors in it. Some were perpetuated from the previous edition and some escaped the proof reading process. Although many teachers have already noted these and made their own amendments, the RSCDS is now producing a sheet of errata to correct basic errors. A summary of the amendments is as follows:-
On p 21
The elbow grip
Amend to say, “If a right turn is followed by a left turn in an eight bar phrase, then in bar 4 the men can do two high cuts, springing left and right, and the women two spring changes, springing right in front, left in front”.
On p 41
6.6.5 Ladies' Chain
On p 42 all three diagrams need to have the numbering showing the positions of the 1st and 2nd men exchanged. The diagrams show the men standing beside their own partners on the sidelines. The description in the text is for 2nd couple at the top on own sides and 1st couple in second place on opposite sides. The numbers 1 and 2 in the circles should be exchanged.
