THE AR'ZONA SCENE

THE ARIZONA Retail Lumber and r Building Supply fusociation cooperated with the Salt River Valley Hoo-Hoo Club No. 72 Sixth Annual Forest Prod. ucts Fair, held at Chris-Town Shopping Center, Phoenix by featuring a l0 x 30 display built around the association's Heating and Air Conditioning Study.

Centered in the display was a typical wood wall, made more attractive with decorations. A continuous slide presentation was shown, giving results of the tests and the advantage of wood. Another feature was a teletype in the display, bringing news on up-to-date weather data. Also featured were peg board literature racks, in which more than 1Q000 pieces of litera. ture on wood products were given to people visiting the display.

This year's fair consisted of more than forty displays of wood products. One of the outstanding features was the maze of rooms, designed by Jack Seitzo chairman of last year's Forest Products Fair. An added feature for children was the enchanted forest, in which Carol Mae Bones, an Apache Indian maiden, reigned as Princess.

Rod Morrison, advertising manager of O'Malley Building Materials, the fair's chairman declared the fair a huse success with more than 300,fi)0 people viewing the displays.

With the Wood Marketing, Inc., Build. ers Award Program, the Heating and Air Conditioning results published and the Forest Products Fair, wood has been given front page coverage in Arizona and certainly given a boost to the association's wood promotion program.
