In dress rehearsals, she proved her versatility (above) by immobilizing "secret agents" Brian Collins and Bob Dieterle with karate chops (though Bob looks
a little less than chopped) . . . and (below) Kent Miller holds a pistol at Gilda's

A style show of winter and
holiday fashions will be sponsored by the Jaycee Auxiliary
Tuesday, to raise funds for
the club's work with the emotionally disturbed and mentally retarded.
Mrs. Jack KeUey is chairman of the style show, scheduled at 8 p.m. Tuesday at
Leutheuser's Restaurant. Donations are $1.25, and tickets
are available from Jaycee
Auxiliary members or at Billie's Dress Shop, and at the
door as available.
Fashions will be from Billie's; "the Gut- and Curl*-staff
will arrange the models' coiffures." Both assisted at a similar style show given by the
Auxiliary last spring.
Models for the Tuesday event will be Thelma Klapper,
Mary Badour, Mary Burmeister, Carol Dieterle, and De-
Lyn Hoppe. Nancy Kulenkamp will be the narrator.
Door prizes will include five
donated by Billie, plus" 28
Christmas centerpieces made

Santa will- come to Saline
on Saturday, December 2 . . .
possibly on a Ski-doo.
If there's not enough snow
for a Ski-doo, he may show
up on a mini-bike. (Explanations for this unconventional
Santa-transport vary from:
"Dopder ahd Blitzen are in
Miami resting un for Christmas Eve," to: "The reindeer
took time off to go people-
hunting.")
All the holiday doings in
Saline will begin this weekend, as Christmas decor-

ments plan to be open evenings for two or three weeks
before Christmas, h e said,
and all will do so in the last
week of the season.
Santa's headquarters for
the December 2 visit will be
at 107 E. Michigan Ave. (former location of- the Saline
Pizzeria). On subsequent Saturdays, he will be at West-
side Hardware (on December
9); strolling through the business district (on December
16); and at the annual cartoon movie party for children
at the Junior High School
(on December 23).
The movie party is sponsored each year by the Kiwanis Club, whose members
provide supervision of the
youngsters so that parents
will be free to Christmas
shop. Refreshments, chats
with Santa, and drawings for
special gifts complete the afternoon.
The prospect of a maxi-
Santa on a mini-bike depends
on locating such a vehicle.
Anyone who has one is asked
to contact The Saline Reporter, 429-7380, or Sibson, 429-
7913.
