Select the slide you want to change in the pane on the left. Go to the
Design tab. Right-click the design (called a Theme in PPT 2007) you want to
apply and choose "apply to selected slides."

If the theme/template you want to apply isn't in the gallery on the Design
tab already, you can browse to it, but that will apply the theme/template to
all the slides. What you can do, though, is follow the instructions in the
first paragraph -- just apply any existing design theme to the selected
slide. Then, with that slide still selected (and the existing other theme
applied), click the dropdown arrow on that gallery on the Design tab again,
choose Browse for Themes, go find your template or theme, and then click the
Apply button (which was an Open button) at the bottom of the dialog box.
Only the slide you have selected will change.

There are other ways -- you could use Home | New Slide | Reuse Slides,
navigate to a presentation that uses the same template or theme you want to
use, click the "keep source formatting" button at the bottom of the Reuse
Slides pane, and insert one slide into your presentation. Then you'd have
that design in the gallery on the Design tab, so you can right-click and
"apply to selected slides" and then delete the extra slide you inserted.
