NO RIFT BETWEEN DAWN AND FUTURE IN-LAWS

Manila, Dec. 17, 1997 - Dawn Zulueta, soon to be Mrs. Anton Lagdameo, is getting along fine with the members of here future husband's family, contrary to vicious rumors.

Anton, of course, belongs to Davao's ultra-rich Lagdameo and Floirendo clans. That is Floirendo, as in Antonio Floirendo, Banana King and former owner of the Philippines' Ford franchise. Don Antonio Floirendo is Anton's namesake and maternal grandfather.

Anton's family owns the world-class Pearl Farm Resort in Davao, pioneered the large-scale planting and export of bananas to Japan and the United States, and owns Nenita Farms and Food Products, consistent winner for quality cured meat products.

Bad news for gossip-mongers, good news for fans: Dawn has been seen lately attending social functions with members of Anton's family.

There has been no denial from the groom's side about published reports that the two will tie the knot in the very near future.
