I use Corel Draw, but often end up manually tracing as well.
Good luck,

I'm not sure what you need. Did this real quick, didn't spend any time at it. It would need to be cleaned up quite a bit. Bottom bear is from Corel Use it if it helps.
IAP won't load a SVG so I sent a PDF. If you think any of these will work, PM me an email address and I'll send to you.

Thanks Jeff -- that's sort of like what I'm getting with Inkscape. There must be something in the settings to help smooth it out. I'll keep playing.
I've never played with Corel, but it looks like it can give a smoother presentation.
I'll PM my email to you, if you can send the files, that'd be great. Although I wasn't expecting anyone to actually run the conversion for me, just steer me to the right software...... I appreciate you taking the time to play with it.

It can be made better in Corel. I didn't spend any time on it since I didn't know exactly what you want. On the quick trace I ran I didn't take any time to clean up the excess nodes.

Thanks everyone for your help with this, and those who sent me file copies to work with.
This was a bit of a learning curve for me, but to get clean lines and paths, I found it was best to learn how to use the pen tool and start from scratch tracing vector lines over the graphic image. A few YouTube videos later (and maybe a nap during one of them......
), I half figured out how to use the pen tool with anchors and handles, and was able to digitize the bear into a fully scalable vector line drawing, then save as an SVG file.
IAP really is a great community!
