Spotty retail promotional activity and demand from areas catering to the resort trade is stimulating additional call or product but volumes ordered are unsufficient to keep supplies of large and extra large from building in many quarters. Floor stocks of large and heavier weights are adequate or available. Mediums are unevenly distributed but adequate overall.
