From the Binghamton Press, June 12 1913

Risking duplication,  by printing my favorite item. I don't know why it tickles me so much, but it does:


'TANGO' AND 'ONE-STEP' 
PLUS GRACEFUL KICK 
MAKES' NEWEST DANCE 

Atlantic City, N. J.. June 12.~-The 
"Hitchlo Koo," a combination of tho 
"One Step" and "Tango," with a 
graceful kick as the final feature' of 
each set was Introduced as the latest 
dance creation at the annual convention of the International Dancing 
Masters' Association In session here. 
F. W. Scott, of Michigan, the oldest 
member In attendance, declared that 
"trots* that necessitate the clinch hug 
should be prohibited by legislation. 
There Is nothing bad about the new 
dances If they are danced correctly, 
but they seldom are."
