(ONCEIN A LIFETIME TRIP I'm sure that is just what Linda Palmer will say when she returns from her recent trip to Hawaii. She accompanied her future in-laws to this beautiful lace, to spend sometime with ennis . Petersen, Linda's fiance. Dennis has been serv- P1 D ing in Viet Nam and came into Hawaii for a rest period. The Peter sens, who reside in Libertyville, contacted Linda and made arrangements for an immediate flight as soon as they heard he was goingthere. Needless to say, there couldn't have been a happier girl in the world. There aren't too many young ladies who have the good fortune of being gifted with such a dream-like trip from their future in-laws.
