(Conway photo) Ruth Ahlers, William Feldner Recite Vows In St. John’s Lutheran Church Sanctuary As multi-lighted candles burned at the altar of the St. John’s Lutheran church of Orange, Ruth Ahlers, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Otto Ahlers of 13451 East South St., and William Feldner of Fullerton recited their marriage vows, the Rev. John H. Geisler, the officiant. Miss Ahlers was radiant as she approached the altar with her father who gave her in marriage. The lovely sheer yoke to her Chantilly lace and nylon tulle gown had one exquisite detail, a cutout of lace, fastened to the side neckline. The edge of the lace outlined the low shoulder line of the gown, which had a very full skirt with a sweeping train. Headpiece to her fingertip veil was held to her hair with a finger scalloped cap, trimmed with sparkling sequins and she carried a white orchid surrounded with stephanotis. Blue and Pink Gowns Mrs. Paul Weerts, sister of the bride, was matron of honor. Her gown of aqua blue nylon net over matching under-dress, accented with a tiny bolero, was a delicate contrast to the all white bridal dress. Her bouquet was a basket shaped, arrangement of beach-toned carnations. Design similar to the matron of honor’s gown but in the peach tones, bridesmaids were Miss Marilyn Watson, Miss Pat Frahm, and Miss Ruth Ragan. Their flowers were aqua shaded carnations, fashioned identical to the basket arrangement carried by Mrs. Weerts. Young Miss Laurel Newkirk, dressed in a white nylon net formal frock, served as flower girl with Donald Fowler, the ring bearer.

Center, Anaheim Life With Music Column Starts; Analysis Compiled by Richard Drake Saunders We acquired a national anthem only a couple of decades ago, when Congress officially adopted "The Star Spangled Banner." In the opinion of many, including the writer, it was an unsound choice primarily because the tune is too unsingable. Oh, yes, everyone stands up respectfully, but only a few of the bardier souls make even a pretense at singing the words, which still fewer know. The range is too great for any but a trained singer to deliver properly, and the trained singer usually hesitates because the dramatic effect gives the appearance of showing off the conspicuous. The air dates from the late 18th century, when it was written by John Stafford Smith, organist of the Chapel Royal in London, as the "constitutional song" of the Anacreontic Society, a convival group which met in various taverns or serious drinking. The society flourished and there were many more-or-less allied groups of the same name in this country, rather like a present-day service club. The tune may have been meant to test the members' vocal ability, or perhaps their constitution- al ability as a climax to which they might rise, if still able to rise. Certainly it is a lusty tune, and a rousing one when heartily sung. But the timed efforts of an average audience are far from inspiring. The words were written by Francis Scott Key, a Maryland gentleman whose hobby was versifying for special occasions, and who had written previously to the same meter. Unsubstantiated legend has it that Key composed his text while under fire during the War of 1812. They are stirring words dramatic and uplifting. But they do not fit the music well and actually make it less singable. Although a brilliant solo song, "The Star Spangled Banner" is not well adapted to easy chorus singing. Its choral arrangement is necessarily involved, and demands skill and training from the singers undertaking the different vocal lines. A much better national anthem would be "God Bless America," which is singable in either solo or chorus, and has the additional merit of being wholly American. Congress might do well to reconsider.
