Dressed in jeans and wielding a

sam streamers will decorate the
corridor. Even band members will
appear in slacks and sport shirts,
adding to the informal atmos-
phere.

dary Paul, who let a logging
chain dangle from his belt as a
watchfob, will appear over the
ballroom entrance. Couples will
enter the dance floor between its
legs.

tween dances, the foresters are set-
ting up the "longest bar in Ann

smoke around the "campfire" to
be built on the patio.

between dances in the small ball-
room, where a' series of exhibits
will be set up. Besides Smokey
Bear,, these displays will feature

days or weeks to acquire
the "know how" to tailor
a proper natural-shoulder

by a firm which has special-
ized in this model for over
a decade .. . and the pleas-
ant results are obvious as
soon as you try on the
