Bill Irvine at Blackpool.

The author talks about the British Professional Championship in Blackpool, England. He cites that reigning champions Peter Eggleton and Brenda Winslade did not join the competition because Winslade had an operation and was advised against dancing by her doctors. Among the winners were Michael Needham and Monica Dunsford in the Waltz and Foxtrot categories, and Anthony Hurley and Fay Saxton in the Tango and Quickstep categories. Charles Barlow and His Orchestra provided the music for the event.
