For instance, your family fishing "starter set" can include: ¢ Rods (fishing poles) for about $12 each. New models are durably con- structed and easy to handle for Mom, Johnny, age 5, and Betty, 14. e Reels to wind in your catch are simply operated and start at $2.50 or so. Or, you might consider rod- . and-reel combination sets for under $10. e A tackle box with two. drawers, made of sturdy plastic, starts in the $2.50 to $3.00 range. e Sinkers. floats, leader; hooks and stringer, the to- tal not to exceed $5 or $6.

They're side-tied, side-slit and worn over pale satin shirts. The tuxedo for women is another holiday trend. Side- striped or plain, in gabar- dines, satins and wools, it's sexy and liberated.
