Note: Open Up The Column is the same as Transfer The Column [A1] except that the First Two do a Trail & Peel movement instead of a Trail Off movement. There is a call (not currently in use) named Clover The Column in which the First Two do a Peel Off movement (1/2 Invert The Column and 1/4 In). We would like to see these 3 calls generalized so that we can do a Trail (Transfer) The Column, Trail & Peel (Open Up) The Column, Peel (Clover) The Column and Peel & Trail The Column.

Open Up And | But anything [C3A] (Lee Kopman 1976): From Columns. #1 dancer Trail Off & Roll as #2 dancer Circulate, Peel Off & Roll as #3 and #4 dancers Circulate and do the anything call. This is analogous to Transfer And anything [A2].

Variations:

• Magic Open Up The Column.
• 2 By 1 Open Up The Column: From Columns of 3. #1 dancer Trail Off & Roll as #2 dancer Circulate, Peel Off & Roll as #3 dancer Circulate & Cast Off 3/4. The Very Center dancer then does an 'Extend' to end between the outsides.
