Mortimer Doyle, president of the International Snowmobile Industry Association, poses with large snowmobile outside the Inn of the Park yesterday. Despite temperatures around 26 Celsius, the association is holding its annual congress and discussing such unseasonal topics as Snow Country - Winter Fun for Everyone. Snowmobile sales are expected to reach 250,000 in 1978, figures that should keep manufacturers warm in the long winter nights.
