By RITA GEDROVICS -
"Don't you touch her!" is a
hraseeIvan Parker, Assistant to
.he Dean of Students, has become1
oted for. However, this statement
sn't meant to apply to daily asso-
iations of the two sexes-it is just
ne of his favorite calls for square-
ancing.
Square-dance calling has almost
ecome traditional . in Parker's
amily. Taking after his grand-
3ther who was a caller, and his
ather, an old-time fiddler, call-
ng just comes naturally to Park-
r'
Dancing with his mother gave
him a start on this hobby. Now
Parker knows variations to 125
alls. However he has no Get way
of memorizing a call "When I
hear the music, the words just
ome naturally."
Sometime in the near future
Parker plans to let his three sons,
he oldest of whom is ten and the
twins, aged six, take over the job
of calling. The boys are already in
good practice to carry square-
dance calling into the fourth gen-
eration.
But the men in the Parker fam-
ly aren't the only ones who like
that type of recreation. Mrs. Park-
er also enjoys it. It may be inter-
esting to notice that it was at a
square dance where the Parkers
met for the first time.
Although square-dancing is us-
ually associated with the Western
people, Parker has spent most of
his life in the vicinity of Ann Ar-
bor. He can even claim the dis-
tinction of being one of the orig-
inal members of the seventh grade
of Unversity High school when it
first opened in 1925.
Calling for a Scout benefit dance
when the regular caller didn't ap-
pear gave Parker his first experi-
ence in calling when he was assist-
ant scoutmaster.
Now for the past twenty years
Parker has been heard calling
"Roll the oyster, and dig for the
clam" at a great number of oc-
casions. In some groups and .dor-
mitories it has almost become a
tradition to have him for a caller.
Parker's calling isn't limited to
campus groups though, he does it
for other civic functions also.
Usually, ten times more invitations
are extended than he can accept.
Being principal of an agricultur-
al high school for 13 years gave
Parker additional experience. He
not only taught new dances to the
students but also learned some in-
teresting calls from the old-timers
who came to the dances.
When he goes on trips through
the country, Parker stops at var-
ious localities and, if his sched-
ule permits, tries to go to a dance

in order to learn calls from all!
parts of the country.ss
One of his favorite calls is "Lady
'round the lady and the gent moves
slow." This is one of the easier
square dances and good for people
to start on.
It is Parker's opinion that "Any-
one can square-dance" if the call-
er employs the proper technique.
To him the only way to call is to
"call clearly so that people can un-
derstand."
Calling for the English Institute
group has been one of his more
interesting experiences. Since
most of the dancers have a lim-
ited knowledge of the English lan-
guage, the process has to be slowed
down considerably. On one occa-
sion, much to his amusement, a
young man approached Parker
with the question, "Just what is
the meaning of a 'partner'?"
But calling for square dances is
not Parker's only hobby. His in-
terests vary from ballroom danc-
ing and stamp collecting, to gard-
ening and baseball in the line of
outdoor activities.
So, for anyone who wondered
what college administrators do in
their few spare moments, Parker's
hobbies should provide an exam-
ple.

ance, student entertainers select-
ed from auditions will be on the

lins, popular banjo artist head-
lined the show.
