Thanks for broaching the subject Michael. I wasn't sure whether to bring 
it up, however discovered it a few years ago when on a general dance 
churn on the interwebs.

I turned up one rendition of the story in the newsletters at

American Dance Circle - Lloyd Shaw Foundation
http://www.lloydshaw.org/american-dance-circle.html

The edition in question is that of May 1982
