Get ting it together Parties in Nampa wont be the same Idaho Free Press, Friday, Aine mith Mondav fo, fh 95 wiu be missed they leave been eu horae to PoMtell where Ross has been transferred by the Union Pacific Railroad. be a to hear Penny will traveling back to Narapa about every two weeks during the dance season to "call" the dances sne and her husband are so well-known for. Married in 1937, Ross and Penny have been square- dancing together since 1947 when, according to Ross, he was "dragged" onto the dance floor against his will. He must have liked his partner, because he's hardly left the floor since. In 1948, he started calling for dances and he and Penny both were leading and calling for clubs by Dancing was no new thing for Penny, who taught tap and social dancing while she was a school teacher and assistant superintendent in Blaine County.

In fact, she was teaching dancing classes near Sun Valley when she met Ross in 1936. The Crispinos now teach square dancing together. They added the El Rancho Playroom to their home in 1953 (they have lived in Nampa since 1945) and opened it to smaller clubs and classes. Their dancers helped them to enlarge it in 1959, and up to this date all of their clubs hpvp hppn mpetiner there. The Waltz-Time club, organized by the Crispinos in 1949, still is active; other present clubs in the area include the Grand Spinners and the Alpine Swingers.

From 1949 to 1963, they broadcast 450 square dance programs over KFXD radio station. Dozens of institutes and conventions have been entertained and instructedby the dancing couple over the years. Past and future activities during 1972 include participation in parades, calling for many square dances and assisting teenagers with road dances. Showing their appreciation for the influence the Crispinos have had on square dancing and entertainment in general in the Nampa area, Doug and Judy Hyslop recently sponsored a surprise party for them at the Hong Kong Cafe, inviting about 25 old-time callers who had started with the Cris- pinos. Following the dinner, they were guests of honor at a square dance at the Eagles Hall.

About 200 dancers representing dance clubs throughout the valley were present to let the Crispinos know they will be missed. And square dance 'club members won't be the only ones feeling the difference when the Crispinos leave. Sponsors of church groups and service clubs already are bemoaning the fact that Ross and Penny won't be around to teach and call dances and supervise game nights. Gee must be nice to know 'you're going to be missed. Well, Ross and Penny Crispino have earned the right to know that they will be.

More western flavor and fun the Snake River Stampede is galloping into town again! And are people ever busy making sure everyone knows about it AccWdlhg'to Bill Deal, Stampede president this year, the "main job" of those working with the rodeo is to advertise and put everything they've got into pre-rodeo activities, "participating throughout the valley, letting other people know we have a rodeo." Deal was speaking to rodeo queen contestants at an orientation dinner for candidates at Sir Richard's this week. And when he's not exaggerating. A list presented to the Idaho Free Press shews 40 proisoSoriSi ssSvitios lined up! Among the busier rodeo promoters will be this year's reigning queen, Nancy Ellis, and the contestants who will be competing for the 1972 title. The girls are required to ride in many of the parades and participate in most of the promotional activities. Nancy also will be working out with the girls, offering tips and moral support from her experience as rodeo contestant and queen.

Being in Nampa for workouts and various events isn't all that simple for many of the girls. Some travel several hours horse, trailer and all to be here. One girl had driven three hours to attend the banquet, and when I asked if she had to travel the three hours back that night, she said, "Oh, yes, I have to be at work in the They all will try their best for their families, their friends and their horses and each will be happy for the one who wins.

Acording to the Cancer Society, approximately 71,080 women in the United States will develop breast cancer this year and 32,000 of them will diefrom it.

Cancer of the breast represents about one-fifth of all cancer deaths and is the second leading cause of cancer deaths among women.

The safe way to lose excess pounds is to shed them slowly, steadily and some degree of medical supervision, the doctor says. Ideally, weight loss should occur at the rate of one to one and a half pounds a week.

"Total calorie intake should be reduced, while maintaining a balanced diet," he says. "Sugars, starches and fatty substances should be avoided." The medical director that gradual weight reduction gives the skin a chance to retract, avoiding the unsightly sagging which results from rapid weight loss. "A person following alow calorie balanced diet normally docs not need the supplementary vitamins promoted by health fa- dists," he says. "Since the body has limited capacity for storing vitamins, excess vitamins go to waste." According to Dr. Domm, there I is no medical reason to prevent any adult on a weight loss program from skipping breakfast or lunch.
