Haynes, professional folk dancing teacher, will lead students, facul ty, and townspeople in early Am erican dances in Recreation Hall from 7 to 10 p. m. tomorrow. As social director of Henry Ford's Wayside Inn at Sudbury, Mass., Mr. Haynes is spending the week at Penn State teaching phy sical education classes historical dances. Tomorrow's program will in clude the heel and toe polka, square dances, the auchess, and barn dances. Representatives of WRA activi ties clubs will be hostesses in Re creation Hall. Childhood Dancing Leads Comedian To Varied Career When still in teen-age dancing school, usually dreaded by small boys, Albert E. Haynes, former stage and screen star and direc tor, got his start which has led him to be known as one of the leading authorities of folk danc ing in this country. At the College this week, Mr. Haynes is teaching a concentrated course in early American dancing, and he will lead folk dancing in Recreation Hall tomorrow night. His first trip .to the campus, he has taught for three Summers at Har vard University Summer School. Training at Emerson College of Oratory in Boston and New Eng land Conservatory of Music, at 21 Mr. Haynes_ was on the stage, 'dir ecting and acting. After being on the professional stage for ten years, he went to Hollywood, first as a director and star in Christie Comedies, and later forming his own company, Al Haynes' Come dies. Returning to the stage, he coach ed amateurs oh the professional stage, acted in vaudeville, and di rected chorus girls in modern rou- tines. Mr. Haynes did nothing with folk dancing at this time. Among his proteges was the later famous Clara Bow. Mr. Haynes made it clear that his comedies were not of the ipie slinging variety, but situations and not actors formed the comedy ele ment. A friend of Walter Winchell's, the white haired dancer had a ra dio column on Hollywood news two years before his famous col league began. In 1932 Mr. Haynes became the social director of the Wayside Inn estate at Sudbury, Mass. The Inn, owned by Henry Ford and recon structed with period furniture, was the scene of "Tales of a Way side. Inn," written by Longfellow. To keep up the early American tradition, Ford has eStablished 'folk dancing as a part of the cur riculum at three schools located on the estate. :Mr. Haynes is in charge of the program. Visiting the Inn at intervals, Mr. Ford, who, according to Mr. Haynes, is a fine folk dancer him self, dances with Mr. Haynes to that the stateliness of the early polkas and other dances is con tinued. Giving more life to folk dancing when he teaches at colleges, Mr. 'Haynes uses the technique of his chorus dirctor days, counting out the beats without music, and after students have learned this, adding music.
