...hundreds of miles of top-grade Douglas fir. The paraders will include 56 bands-among them the group from Nixon's old high school in Whittier, Calif.-cadets and midshipmen from the service academies, 13-year-old Vicki Cole of Deshler, Ohio, carrying her "Bring Us Together" poster on one of the 39 floats, three Lipizzaner horses, and the French Dukes drill team from Ann Arbor, Mich...
