SWITZERLAND continued
After our stay in Switzerland, many people will be taking advantage of our ideal location and renting cars for independent tours to see some of Europe's outstanding areas which are so close and convenient via the superhighways and autobahns or the efficient and enjoyable railway system.
Our agent, Travel Headquarters, Ltd., Hillside Center, 101 N. Wolf Road, Hillside, Illinois 60162, will be happy to assist you with any plans to visit such places as Lugano, Lake Como and the Italian lakes region, or Paris and France's wine and chateau country, Venice, Brussels, Germany, or Austria. Travel Headquarters has arranged for a special post-meeting tour that will take us through northern Switzerland, Liechtenstein to the Alps of Austria, with a stay in Salzburg.
Please call Travel Headquarters on their toll-free number, 800-323-9128, to indicate your interest in any of these post-tour suggestions.
The cost of the Austrian tour will be dependent upon the number of participants, but is estimated to cost approximately $400 per person, based on double occupancy for a 4-night, 5-day tour.
We are very excited about our 1982 Industry Tour and invite all MCAA members to take advantage of this rare opportunity. We're sure a great time will be had by all.

Payment Problem
Those computer-printed billing cards, such as the utilities, charge-card companies and others send out, can create problems in deciphering numbers.
We're reminded of the lady who was having a terrible time with her gas bill. Every month after she mailed her check she received word that she had sent either too much money or not enough. It began to seem as if she and the gas company would never agree on how much she owed. Finally, a kind soul in the company's office sent her a little hand-written note. It read: "Please pay the amount. You have been paying the date."
