Herbie Gaudreau had a monthly column "Contra Corner" in the square dance
magazine, "The New England Caller" from 1955 to roughly 1967. That magazine
is now archived online:

The down-the-hall version appears in the May 1955 issue, page 33.

The ladies chain version appears in the November 1960 issue, page 48. It's
marked as "East Meets West (revised)".

There might be more info in Gaudreau's book, "Modern Contra Dancing,"
though I don't have a copy.
