If you have the New Font Selection stuff (NFSS), get the amslatex package from
e-math.ams.com. This is by far the best solution, even if it means that you
need to update your latex (you can find all this at e-math).

If you are determined to avoid the NFSS, there are several hacked versions of
someone's amssymbols.sty (mine's called amssym.sty, not to be confused with the
amslatex amssymb.sty) which give the fonts and symbols you desire. Caveat:
amssymbols.sty was for the old amsfonts, amssym.sty is for amsfonts 2. It is
possible that amssym.sty and amssymbols.sty can be found on fileserv@shsu.edu.
fileserv will respond to mail
  sendme sty.amssym
  sendme sty.amsymbols
fileserv also has the NFSS, I believe, in [.fontsel].
