In his honor we feature a banquet and ?√ß dance. From a humble beginning six years ago the dance with its nightclub atmosphere and national recognition is now widly acclaimed to be the highlight of the year. Proceeds from this event are used for scholar- ships within the hotel department and also helps meet expenses of the annual field trip. For the past two years leading hotels have submitted menu covers, souvenier ash trays, match book covers, etc as dance favors. This has added greatly to our success. It is not my pleasure to invite your outstanding hotel to join and be represented at this festive occassion. Would it be possible for you to send us a box of the first three items listed? Also any of the last three that you would like our guests to use. (We have about 700) c*> ?? 1. Match book covers r 4. Cocktail napkins ' olcfl' and oucfetail picks 5. Cocktail straws ?╟≤?╟÷ 2-0?? 3.
