We've never noticed trouble with the Down the Hall, just with the contra
corners when some in the group have not done contra corners the regular way
before. But perhaps instead of
Down the hall four in line (ones between the twos)
it should read
Down the hall four in line (ones between their original twos)
The progression happens later, at the very end of the dance ("twos cast the
ones down to progressed place")
Does this help?

Martha & Mavis,
This looks like a fun dance but when you've called it is there confusion
about which 2's to pick up going down the hall? The first corners or 2nd
corners?

I think you may mean Gypsy Camp by Bob Green.
*Gypsy Camp* by Bob Green Duple PROPER
A1 1. Ones gypsy your partner,
2. Swing your first corner
A2 3. Ones gypsy your partner
4. Swing your second corner
B1. 5.&6 Ones gypsy and swing
7. Down the hall four in line (ones between the twos)
Ones turn as a couple, twos turn alone
8. Come back, twos cast the ones down to progressed place
NOTE: This is best done with a move I call “Flirt and Twirl”. In the Contra
Corners, Gypsy about half-way, then twirl over your right shoulder into the
arms of your corner. -BG

I have a partial set of figures for a dance...
I beleive it was called
A
Gypsy Cap or Camp
Intrigued me because it used a "Contra Corners" type figure done
as -- 1s Gypsy Partner 3/4 and Swing 1st Corner then 1s Gypsy Partner
3/4 and Swing 2nd Corner - then 1s Gypsy and Swing in middle -
looks
like they then go down the hall in a line of 4.
my scribbling says Proper dance but .. my scribbles were pretty bad.
Would someone have the correct sequences and ttile and an Author?
thanks
