DEATH REPORT VERIFIED
Captain James D. Basey Formerly
. Lived in Portland.
The death of Captain James D. Basey,
former Portland boy. whose name ap
peared In Friday s casualty list, was
verified yesterday by Dr. 8. H. Sheldon
In long-distance conversation with the
Basey family rt Olympla.' V ash..
Young Basey. who was the son of Mr.
and Mrs. Charles Basey, grew up In
Portland and has a large circle of1
Intimate friends here. His father was
for many years the Portland agent for
the Northen Express Company, while
Mrs. Basey was prominent In social and
community activities during bar resi
dence here. The family removed to
Olympia about a year ago. and Mrs.
Basey Is now head of the surgical
dressing department of the Red Cross
chapter In.that city.
Captain Basey entered the service
at Fort Leavenworth. After further
training at Gettysburg ha was com
missioned and assigned to the Fourth
Infantry, with which he went to France
In May. Captain Basey was a chum of
Judge Back's son. of Vancouver, who
also has been listed among the kiuea.
Gone are the tangos, the frensled
fox trots and the waltsea of yasteryear.
Enter the dignified slow waits of
nre-Jaxs days, and a host of new one
steps, fox trots and three-steps which
hsve originated In cantonments ana
soldiers' recreation centers. These pre
serve the military In music and rhythm.
The "Pershing Trot," "The Camouflage
Turn." the "Liberty Loan Trot." the
Rainbow Three-step' and the "Tickle
Toe" are among the new dances which
are occupying the interest of dancing
teachera all over the countryy wno nave
assembled at the three great centers of
terpslchora for the Summer months.
Conventions, normal schools and Sum
mer short courses are In session in New
York. Chicago and San Francisco. Mose
Chrlstensen, M. M. Rlngler and Miss
Genevieve Paget. Portland exponents
of the dance, are attending these meet
ings.
"The Tickle Toe, from the musical
hit of the new comedy, "Going Up,"
bids fair to become the dance sensation
of the season.
Old Scottish Dance Recalled.
To survive the first two or three
movements of the Tickle Toe is to find
oneself face to face with the Aeroplane
fiway. Then come the heel and toe
"tickle." several movements which re
semble parta of the old 6cottlsh sword
dance, and a aerlea of steps of the va
riety that look easy and are not.
The Pershing Trot Is a combination
of the old barn dance and the modern
Fox Trot. It Is danced to four-Tour
time, preferably to one of the new mili
tary airs. The dancers start In open
position and end in waits position. The
Camouflage turn Is one of the move
ments which make thia dance "new"
aa far as Fox TroUs go.
The Canteen Canter Is the newest
thing In one-steps. It Is a combination
of the popular Cortes movement and
the backward canter movement. It in
cludes the "waltz turn" instead of the
two-step turn. .
Old-Fashioned Walts Retaras.
The new American waits begins with
four slow walking steps forward, fol
lowed by the "scissors turn." and then
the straight waits a la mllitaire. done
in open position. This Is done In waltz
time, but It goes perceptibly slower
than waltsea have been done In the last
year or two. The old-fashioned waltz
without any variations will return to
enjoy Its old popularity, aay dancing
authorities.
The liberty loan fox trot Includes all
the virtues of the old fox trot and a
number of new movements. Grape
vines are no longer "done," but the
outstep" and a new zig-zag step have
been introduced.
The rainbow three-step Is done In 14
counts Instead of It, as it has been done
heretofore. It ends In a pivot turn
and canter movement.
Practically all of the fast dancrnar
which marked the steps introduced In
the Castle era Is a thing of the dim
past today. Slow dancea are slower
than ever and fast dances are military.
