planned transformation into
Manhattan. The wagon has been
shuttling back and forth from
San Francisco.
Slightly Higher
What must this cost? 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."

'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!
