After a Friday afternoon "happening" and a psychedelic show, Kirkland House members will on Saturday night revel at a Barn Dance to be held in Concord. Bowing to one's partner and dos-y-do-ing will be replaced by a more modern set of steps and gyrations as the rock 'n' roll sound of Thee Argo replaces the more traditional strains of the barn dance fiddler...
