The best way is to get a regular soldertail PLCC socket, and a 68-pin
wirewrap socket, and plug the PLCC socket into it.  You can get both of
these from a place called Anchor Electronics, in Santa Clara
Cal. (Area Code 408).  Call Directory info for their number, and see if they do
mail-order.  Also if you need to ever swap chips, you can put the new chip
into its own PLCC socket, and plug it into the wire-wrap one.
(It's virtually impossible to get a chip out of a PLCC socket without some
special tool).
