Island Souvenirs Mrs. Will Connelly shows some of her souvenirs from her visit to Micronesia. The hat is of pandus leaves, a material used in making floor mats and other woven items. The rack on the table is a "Trukese telephone." A boy on the island of Truk who wants a date with a girl will use one of the carved sticks in the rack to poke through the thatched wall of hut and into a girl's hair.

Off To See The Sights - Sheri Shipmon -- in the striped blouse -- and Mrs. Shipmon are among those saying their good-byes as 41 members of the Ann Arbor public housing youth clubs and six adult chaperones leave for a one-week charter bus trip that will take in sights from Ottawa, Ont., to New York City and Mammoth Cave National Park. Even before the bus left Monday evening, the little guy in the foreground was obviously missing someone who went on the tour. The trip was planned after the youths found they were falling short of efforts to raise enough money, through events conducted during recent months, to meet their original goal of a trip to London and Paris.
