+[Everyone dances alternately with Ptr and one other person.)
+MUSIC: “Pat’s Rag” by Jonathan Jensen. Jonathan says that he
+composed this tune with Pat Shaw’s style of ragtime in mind,
+hence the name.
+Teaching Points:\\ <code>
+(1) A1 moves the men two places to the R around the set and
+    A2 moves the women two places to the L.
+(2) In B1, emphasize that there are no courtesy turns in this
+sequence. Also, warn everyone that the pass throughs
+come quickly, There really is not enough time to leisurely
+turn around, </code>
