First Line: Well, here we are at the "National Parks" costume party!

Synopsis: In the top gag, Reggie, Veronica and Betty are at a "National Parks" costume party at the Lodge mansion. Betty says that she came as a mountie so she could always get her man. Archie, who is dressed in a singed Smokey the Bear costume, apparently sat on one of Mr. Lodge's cigars and set his costume on fire. In the bottom gag, Jughead has invited Reggie, Betty, Veronica and Archie to dinner. His menu is an unappetizing collection of wild foods. As Archie leaves the party, he asks what Jughead did with the food he prepared. Jughead says he didn't prepare any food - just the menu.

Notes: Typical gag bag strip - two four-panel gag strips occupying the bottom half of the page. The top half is occupied by the "Wrong Number" strip. One interesting thing to note about this strip is that there are two gags in the first one. Archie Comics were hugely popular in the US at the time (even more so then than they are now), but were also popular in Canada (and they still are today). Many Canadian readers may not have understood the "Smokey the Bear" gag, since Smokey is affiliated with US National Parks, so the writers through in an equally-funny Canadian gag. One of the many duties of the Mounties (Royal Canadian Mounted Police) is to patrol Canada's national parks. A long-time saying associated with the group is "The Mounties always get their man!". Betty comes dressed as a Mountie so she can always get her man (most likely Archie). This gag would ensure that Canadian readers find the strip funny, regardless of whether or not they knew who Smokey the Bear was.

Veronica and Archie are getting tired of this, and Reggie again says to name a stunt and he'll do it. Archie asks Reggie if he can land on the front end of one ski and on the back end of the other ski. Reggie says that he can, does a flip in the air, and lands just as Archie said - which leaves him stuck in the snow.
