Popular Young People Plight Troth Before Friends Assembled for Wedding in Capilla de San Antonio
Invested with all the charm that flowers, music and soft candlelight can give, the wedding Sunday afternoon at 4 o'clock of Miss Judith Jeanne Lillibridge and William ("Bill") Dodge took place in the presence of some 75 members and close friends of the two family circles, assembled in the quaint little highway Capilla de San Antonia.
Miss Lillibridge, the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Clyde Wilkins Lillibridge, 549 South Janss street, was given in marriage by her father after they paced to the altar to the strains of the Wedding March from Lohengrin. She was very lovely in her street length frock of dull gold crepe worn with smart little hat, slippers and gloves in navy blue.
She carried a white-bound Bible upon which rested a spray of orchids and as the "something old" of her bridal costume, carried a wisp of a hand-made handkerchief, fashioned four generations ago by the great-grandmother of her bridegroom.
Miss Patricia Lillibridge was her sister's honor maid, her afternoon dress of navy and white worn with navy accessories, complementing her sister's costume.
Guild Date Changed So Group Can Do Surgical Dressings
Although several St. Agnes Guild members were engaged Monday evening in issuing Ration books No. 2 to scores of applicants in city schools, there were 15 members reporting for work on surgical dressings at Red Cross headquarters.
Red Cross rooms are given over to this important task on Tuesday nights, but were opened Monday as a concession to the guild. However at a subsequent business session conducted by Mrs. Harry I. Horn, decision was reached to change the guild meeting night from fourth Monday to fourth Tuesday in order to aid in this vital Red Cross activity.
The business meeting was held with the Misses Adah Wilcox and Gertrude Anderson in the former's home, 613 South Dickel street. Stocks, sweet peas and ranunculus blooms believed the rainy night, and hinted that spring is just around the corner. The flowers added charm also to the table from which refreshments were served buffet style.
The new regime of meetings for guild members will begin Tuesday night, March 23, when work on surgical dressings at the Red Cross will be followed by business and sociability in the Robert Rossberg home on South Indiana street. Mrs. Wilson W. Phelps will be co-hostess with Mrs. Rossberg.

Calla lilies of the altar decorations were repeated in flower appointments of the adjoining parlor where the wedding reception was staged. Mr. and Mrs. Lillibridge and Mr. and Mrs. George Lancaster Dodge joined the bridal party in the receiving line. The two mothers wore white carnations with their similar costumes in black and white.
Prominence was given the decorated wedding cake, which was cut and served by Mrs. Maurice Bandy of Manhattan Beach (an aunt of the bride) after the newlyweds had cut the traditional first slice. Serving iced fruit punch were Mrs. James Starr, Mrs. Tom Fisher and Miss Eloise Hendricksen.
Now honeymooning at Big Bear Lodge, the new Mr. and Mrs. Dodge will return just in time for the former to leave for San Francisco and his induction on March 2 into the Merchant Marine. He has been with Santa Ana Tile company since completion of Fullerton junior college. Both he and his bride graduated from Fullerton Jaysee after completing Union high school. Mrs. Dodge continued her studies at Santa Barbara State Teachers college but is now a member of the office staff at Douglas where she will continue while her husband is in service. She plans to remain with her parents for the present, dividing her time also with her husband's parents at 414 South Vine street.

Talented Reviewer Wins Praise of Ebell Book Section
Although Monday afternoon's rain affected the attendance at Ebell Book section meeting it didn't dampen the interest of those present, in the very delightful program presented by Mrs. R. W. Byrne of Tustin. A tea hour formed pleasant introduction to the afternoon, with Mesc-dames Ray Reafsnyder, Wayne Griggs, Rex Reason and Howard Tews presiding at the flower-brightened table.
Mrs. R. M. Glover, section leader, presented Mrs. Byrne, whose charm of manner and beautiful speaking voice played a large part in the success of the afternoon. Although she devoted the main part of her talk to a searching and analytical study of Frances Parkinson Keyes' "Crescent Carnival," she prefaced it with a brief summary of various current books of merit.
Included were Armstrong Perry's "Call It Courage;" "The Seventh Cross" (Anna Seghers); "In Time of Peace" (Ben Ames Williams); "West With the Night" (Beryl Markham); "Mrs. Parkington" (Louis Bromfield) and a group representing several phases of the American scene.
These were Phil Stong's "One Destiny," dealing with the Iowa countryside he knows so well; "The Cup and the Sword" in which Alice Tisdale Hobart does a saga of family life in the grape country of San Joaquin Valley; "They Came to a River" by Allis McKay, laid in the Columbia river
Many Anaheim Music Lovers Linger After Crooks Concert to Enjoy Midnight Supper for Famous Tenor
Quite as enjoyable in its individual fashion as the long-anticipated Richard Crooks-William Primrose concert which inspired it, was the after-concert supper Tuesday night, with which Musical Arts club complimented the distinguished artists in Santa Ana Ebell clubhouse.
The Anaheim area, which sent untold scores of music lovers to the brilliant program, was well represented at the subsequent social affair, with Mme. Margaret Buttree, junior past president of Musical Arts, Mrs. John P. Holme (Ramona Mulligan Holme), prominent music and voice teacher, and Eleanor Elliott of the Gazette, included among the hostesses.
Among special guests seated at the table over which Mme. Buttree presided, was that brilliant young violinist, Gorgio Ricci and his pretty girl wife. Private Ricci, now stationed at SAAAB, was fast reaching world fame as one of the most talented young artists of the nation, when his professional career was interrupted by his country's call. He has been heard on memorable programs for Musical Arts, as well as throughout the coast area.
Other supper guests from this vicinity included John P. Holme, Mr. and Mrs. H. M. Peterson and Miss Virginia Lee Peterson, Mrs. Knox V. Caldwell, Mr. and Mrs. Orin Shoemaker, the Misses Ethel Campbell, Joanne Jeffries, Shirley Essary and Doris Essary.
All enjoyed the opportunity of meeting the guest artists, their gifted accompanist, Frederick Schauwecker, and Mrs. Primrose in person, and also the group of Hollywood celebrities completing their party, including Dick Powell among other screen notables.
Mrs. Don S. Mozley, Musical Arts president, presided at the table where the guest stars were seated, and introduced the informal program of short talks and music, in which the artists themselves took part. Community singing was led by Willard Bassett and by Mrs. Emil Wagner, with Miss Ruth Armstrong at the piano.
