From Parallel Waves, applicable Parallel Lines, Trade By,
applicable 2 x 4 T-Bones, or other applicable formations.
1/2 Circulate; those in the resulting Center Line|Wave Hinge & 1/2
Box Circulate as the Others Trade; those who meet Cast Off 3/4
as the Others move up (Phantom Hourglass Circulate).
Ends in Parallel Lines|Waves
(or a Parallelogram if dancers end on the same spot).
Notes:
-
The Hinge can be either a Single Hinge (Arm Turn 1/4)
or a Partner Hinge.
-
The Trade can be either an Arm Turn 1/2 or a Partner Trade
(from a Couple). When starting from Parallel Two-Faced Lines,
a common dancer mistake is for the Outsides to Hinge twice
instead of Partner Trade.
-
The Cast Off 3/4 can be either an Arm Turn 3/4
or a 'Push'-style Cast Off 3/4.
-
Be very careful and precise when doing Tally-Ho since there are a
large number of possible starting formations.
-
Do the 1/2 Circulate and then look around to see if you are in
the Center Line! Don't assume that if you start facing out you will be
doing the Outsides' part!
-
Teamwork is often required to successfully complete this call.

Tally-Ho But anything [NOL]:
Do a Tally-Ho but replace the Centers Cast Off 3/4
with the Centers doing the anything call.
Note: When doing a Circulate from Parallel Inverted Lines, the Center 4 are in the inside Circulate
path whereas the Outer 4 are in the outside Circulate path. After a 1/2 Circulate from Inverted Lines, the
Center 4 always end up in the Center Wave! From Parallel Inverted Lines with the Centers facing out,
dancers often get tricked into thinking the Outer 4 become the Centers after a 1/2 Circulate.
