Luke -

I'm not likely to call contras with swing dance moves, but I noticed that in typical Becket fashion yours finishes with a partner 
swing.  It then starts again with "Long lines yearn forward on the left diagonal, then Gents take new neighbor home and swing".

Surely this is a "Give and take", which works better if you keep your arm round your partner when going forward on the left 
diagonal rather than joining hands in long lines.  That's how Larry Jennings defined the figure, though many callers don't seem to 
know that.
