2 THE ANCHOR

Your man can play golf or tennis, snoop around in the business section, take the kid­dies to Kiddie Zoo or Noah's ar-k on Mill Mountain, or fishing in one of the many trout streams near Roanoke.

And if you want to round off a really super vacation, you'll take a post-Conven­tion fling up to Washington, D. C., and spend a wonderful week seeing world re­nowned sights. (Be sure to look at the May issue of Better Homes and Gardens for what to do in Washington this year.) It can be a perfectly £abulous vacation for you and you~ family, too.

Or you can take a one-day tour from Roanoke. There are six, ready and waiting for you. Folders will be availaJble at the registration desk of the Roanoke Hotel.
