Lesser projects in other towns have in volved staggering sums. "Why, nothing. Everybody donates," she says blandly, as if it were the simplest tiling in the world. "People give money, or services, whatever they can, and we all have a lot of fun." That leaves all the proceeds for the symphony. Tickets cost $25 a couple. "We're charging that because Manhattan was sold to the In dians for $24," she says, her gray eyes twinkling. "Of course, everything is slightly higher in the West." Like any good chairman Betty Lou passes along credit for ac complishments to her faithful helpers, even suggests you men tion a half dozen or so if you plan to write about her. Party Know-How However, the pretty mother of three party-loving boys cand idly admits she's an organizer, a persuader, and an Idea wom an. Betty Lou works full time in two offices six months of the year at organizing. She is al ways at work persuading. And she is so brimming with ideas that her friends lean on her to pep up their own private parties. Her props, everything from store window manikins to wine presses stored in her base ment, are always on loan to ac quaintances. Betty Lou Margulis also brims with party philosophies, such as: "Anyone will do anything for nothing if they are having fun doing it, "A woman is willing to go to a party any time. But you have to appeal to men with some un forgettable event to make him glad he's there. "People like the unexpected, and I see that they get it. But I'm always careful not to em barrass anyone." manners by muiet NIA A gift to the hostess from o house guest is optional. A thank-you note is mandatory.

'Dear Abby' Abigail Van Bur en DEAR ABBY: I disagree with your stand that a bachelor's appearance is his own responsibility and a married man's ap pearance is the responsibility of his wife. Ill-fitting, unprcsscd clothes and unshincd shoes are a reflection of the man who wears them. Only a slob looks like a slob. Please indicate in your column how many times a week you shine your hus band's shoes, Abby, and I will send you a little gold medal. NAVY DEAR NAVY: Seven, Mac' Now send the medal and I'll shine that, too! DEAR ABBY: I can't go along with your opinion that it's the wife's fault if her husband looks like a slob. The only thing my husband and I ever fight about is his appearance. Abby, there can be 16 clean shirts in his drawer all in per fect condition and he will pick the one with the button missing, put it on and wear it, instead of looking for another one. He doesn't care or notice If his suits are rumpled and his tics have spots on them. He never looks at his shoes. I have given up trying (o correct him. He's hopeless. But he's mine. "CEIL" - DEAR ABBY: Am I some sort of nut because I don't want to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary with a big party? We've had an unusually happy marriage, two beautiful daugh ters and many friends. 1 love to entertain but only a few couples at a time. I have never cared for big parties and if I started to invite "a few" for our anniversary it would get out of hand and people would show up with presents. (What on earth do they do with all that silver)? To tell you the truth, I'd rather just go fishing with my guy. What do you think? ST. LOUIS WOMAN DEAR WOMAN: I think you are refreshingly honest. Go fishing! Here's Dessert Treat For Unexpected Guest Bake a graham-cracker crust and fill with ice cream, wrap and freeze.
