Home Wedding Rites On Easter Sunday Are Marked by Loveliness Of Season's Wealth of Bright Blooms Glowing with roses and all the vivid loveliness of the season's rich blossoms, the E. C. Rundstrom home on West Broadway was setting on Easter Sunday afternoon, for the wedding of Miss Mary Louise Rundstrom, daughter of the home, and Sgt. Frank J. Dudek of SAAAB, son of the E. E. Dudeke of Chaleston, Nebr. Approximately 70 members of the family circle and close friends were gathered for the rites conducted at 4:30 o'clock by the Rev. Harry Evan Owings, pastor of Santa Ana First Baptist church. Dr. Howard Tews was at the piano for musical numbers preceding the nuptial hour, playing such favorites of the young couple as "Indian Love Call" and "Song of Love" in addition to the formal Wedding Marches. He also accompanied Dr. Dorothy Jordt and Dr. Edward Jordt in such songs as "Always" and "Song of Paradise." Beautiful setting was arranged for the ceremony, with one corner of the spacious living room banked with palms. There, Miss Rundstrom, on her father's arm, joined her bridegroom and the Rev. Mr. Owings, and was given in marriage by her father. Rays of the late afternoon sun irradiated the scene, and fell upon the young couple like a benediction. The bride wore a graceful dressmaker suit in aquamarine crepe with rust accessories accented by the golden tones of her Talisman robes. An interesting detail of her costume was the heirloom strand of pearls, once worn by her grandmother, the late Mrs. R. F. Cooke. Following the wedding, the bride tossed her from University of Nebraska where he was a member of the faculty at the time of his enlistment with the Air Forces. His bride, a graduate of Union high school, has been in the handweaving department of the Bullock store Los Angeles, but will be at home now until Sgt. Dudek completes his training and is assigned to some station where she plans to join him. Book Review Group Intrigued By Literary Summaries Two guest speakers, Mrs. J. Shailer Arnold and Mrs. Grace Ford, both of Fullerton, provided special program interest Monday afternoon for Ebell Book Review section and its guests at the month's final club event in Ebell clubhouse. Mrs. R. M. Glover presided over the meeting after a preliminary social interval when Mesdames L. Earle Phillips, Fred Weisel, M. A. Gauer and H. G. Carlin formed a friendly hostess group for a dessert course. There was a brief business session, most important feature of which was the naming of Mesdames James F. Sutherland, R. M. Glover and Leo J. "Colony" was the rather mystifying name Florell to this tricky little petit point sword for CBS songstress Jessica Dragonette; it was used with shocking pink groove against the chartreuse green of the stra in marriage by her father. Rays of the late afternoon sun irradiated the scene, and fell upon the young couple like a benediction. The bride wore a graceful dressmaker suit in aquamarine crepe with rust accessories accented by the golden tones of her Talisman roses. An interesting detail of her costume was the heirloom strand of pearls, once worn by her grandmother, the late Mrs. R. F. Cooke. Following the wedding, the bride tossed her bouquet in traditional fashion, and it was caught by her life-long friend, Miss Katherine Trechor. During the subsequent reception hour the newly wedded pair presided at the ceremony of cutting the first slice from a tiered wedding cake. The process was completed by the bride's sister, Mrs. Wesley Visel (Adele Rundstrom) of Highgrove, and the cake was served with other dainties by her sister-in-law, Mrs. Ethel Rundstrom of the home. Their two aunts, Mrs. Thomas B. Hargus of this city and Mrs. Henry Cooke of La Habra Heights presided at the silver coffee urns placed on a table spread with cloth of gold matched by yellow roses of the centerpiece glowing in soft candlelight. Aiding during reception hours were Mr. and Mrs. Visel and Mr. and Mrs. Edwin Rundstrom Jr. of Kings City, and their two aunts, Mrs. Florence Langedorfer of Redlands and Miss Frances Rundstrom of Long Beach, together with Dr. and Mrs. Tews. Sgt. and Mrs. Dudek left in a shower of rice and good wishes for a honeymoon which they are spending at Laguna Beach. Mrs. Dudek will return to her girlhood home and Sgt. Dudek will resume his duties at the Air Base preliminary to departure in mid-May for officers' training in Maryland, in aviation psychology. He holds his master's degree in psychology "THEY GIVE THEIR LIVES—YOU LEND YOUR MONEY" Buy More War Bonds Today DEMURE Mrs. R. M. Glover presided over the meeting after a preliminary social interval when Mesdames L. Earle Phillips, Fred Weisel, M. A. Gauer and H. G. Carlin formed a friendly hostess group for a dessert course. There was a brief business session, most important feature of which was the naming of Mesdames James F. Sutherland, R. M. Glover and Leo J. Friis as a committee to nominate section officers for next year. Program plans for the afternoon were in charge of Mrs. C. W. Austin and Mrs. Edward J. Power. Mrs. Austin had secured Mrs. Arnold, chairman of literature in the county Federation of Women's Clubs, and in her friendly introduction, touched upon some of Mrs. Arnold's various activities in club, war and home work. "The Robe" latest book from the pen of Lloyd Douglas, was Mrs. Arnold's choice for review, and to those who had not read the book she presented a clear and thoughtful analysis, which also heightened the appreciation of those to whom the book was familiar. Explaining that it followed the well known Douglas pattern of "rejuvenation through crisis," but that it was handled in a new and refreshing matter, she stressed the fact that its background, of the time of Tiberius, was presented in terms of such universal experience that it is as modern as tomorrow. Her presentation of the characters of Marcellus and his slave, Demetrious, and the changes wrought by the power of "The Robe" which came into the former's possession when Christ's garments were divided at the Cross, was a powerful and enthralling one. Dictinctly of the present in its relation to dramatic events of the World War, was the remaining half of the program for which Mrs. Power presented Mrs. Ford, member of the Monday Afternoon club of the neighboring city. For Mrs. Ford's choice was the deeply moving tale of "The Snow Goose" by Paul Gallico with its climactic portrayal of the evacuation of Dunkirk. She told it dramatically and beautifully, and explained that the motion picture rights to the dramatic tale already have been secured by a prominent Hollywood company, so it will soon be seen on the screen. Guild Members Are Preparing For Annual Bridge Tea Following the pattern outlined earlier in the season members' of St. Agnes' Guild gathered Monday night in Red Cross headquarters to devote the early part of the evening to bandage rolling and similar duties there in advance of their business and social affairs. For the latter interval they were received in the Earle T. Jackson home, 540 South Clementine street, with Mrs. Jackson and Mrs. Llewellyn Wilson to welcome them. Their first cordial gesture was the serving of tea and tempting small cakes in calla lily form, highly appropriate to the Easter season. Mrs. Harry I. Horn presided over the business meeting at which the Rev. D. Howard Dow, rector of St. Michael's Episcopal church, made several announcements. Mrs. Theodore B. Kuchel was named chairman of a nominating committee composed of Mesdames Earle Jackson, Clyde Cromer, Hugo Schulz and Ethel Caverly. They will give their report at the meeting on May 24 with Mrs. G. P. Goodrich of North street. For the remainder of the evening, the group discussed last minute plans for the annual spring benefit bridge scheduled for Saturday afternoon in Ebell clubhouse. May baskets will come into their own at this gala May Day affair, which has been planned by various committee groups under general chairmanship of Mrs. Kuchel. Patrons have been reminded that bridge play will begin promptly at 2 o'clock. Tickets have been in strong demand, and many hostesses have reserved group tables for entertaining at smaller "parties within a party." However, there are still a few tables available according to the Party Guests Hear First News Of June Wedding Date Several Anaheim friends were numbered among guests entertained last week at a charmingly planned luncheon given in the John C. Humphreys home on Stanton avenue Buena Park, to announce the approaching wedding date chosen by Miss Gay Humphreys, daughter of the home, and Robert ("Ted") Etchandy, also of Buena Park. When guests found their places at the tables, gay with clustered roses, each found a pink tulle bag of rice, with a little card lettered "Gay and Ted, June 18." Mrs. Humphreys was assisted in serving a delicious luncheon menu by Mrs. Leo Maley, Mrs. J. G. Humphreys and Mrs. Richard Humphreys. Cootie was introduced as afternoon division, and Mrs. Ada Shoebridge and Miss Jane Grady of this city, were among the prize winners. Other Anaheim guests included Mesdames E. R. Fuller, Elizabeth Hillary, Earl Haggerty, Hazel G. Davis, the Misses Mary Ellen Grady, Arlowine Groeger and Jane Grady. Buena Park guests were Mesdames Rose Etchandy, Lois Etchandy, J. F. Wagg, A. W. Byers, Richard Humphreys, the Misses Winifred Wagg, Louise Byers and Nellie Alponte, while other friends were present from Atwood, Long Beach, Hollywood and Clearwater. Gala Easter Party Has Egg Hunt Held at City Park If anyone were to ask little Miss Barbara Ann Horn whether an Easter party was as pleasant as the January birthday party which she couldn't have because of rainy weather, undoubtedly she would cast her vote for the Easter gayeties. For Saturday afternoon a bevy of small girls responded to invitation of Mrs. Harry I. Horn, to meet Barbara Ann at the family home, 558 South Ohio street, to learn what festive plans were in store. These plans proved to be a park party, and Mrs. Horn conveyed the merry group to the city park whose playground facilities were thoroughly enjoyed. But more than that, Mrs. Horn had hidden quantities of Easter eggs and gay little bunny nests amidst the flowers and greenery, and the egg hunt was one of the afternoon highlights. Then at the refreshment hour, also enjoyed in the park, each young guest received a favor of an Easter basket and a brightly colored egg inscribed with her name. Invited to share the afternoon with Barbara Ann were Rosemary and Carolyn Poyet, Mary Cone, Barbara Ann Ryan, Shirley Panier, Ann Clowes, Gretchen Decker, Dorothy Gene Kuchel and Genevieve Bradley.

Housing Plans Made For Present and Past War Needs (Continued from page 1) of Orange, treasurer. Mrs. Crawford was authorized to write Senator Sheridan Downey to the effect that the Housing council favored the continuance of the Farm Security administration and that adequate appropriation be made therefor. The administration's county supervisor, Ralph Randall, explained that the program in this county was to make loans to small farmers unable to obtain bank loans, to enable them to increase production; that good cows are saved from being sold at Los Angeles Live Stock auction and being placed in the hands of county farmers and dairies and that migratory and other agricultural workers not needed in this area are assisted in obtaining farm work elsewhere.

NUMBER 10 OF A SERIES YOUR WARTIME Gas Kitchen Counselor Save Meat Coupons Serve Tasty FOWL A savory golden-brown bird is smart table-talk for a party anytime—but these days it means "meat" without meat-coupons. Yes, and a protein food that's almost on a par with beef, so fowl scores again nutritiously. But to be sure you make the most of its food values, cook slowly on your gas range at low temperature. This week, we submit two of our favorite chicken recipes: M. Small, secretary-treasurer, Las Amigas club members planned for their coming year's officers when they held their April meeting with S. K. Watters, 306 North Janss street. In the annual election, Mrs. Albert J. Janzen was chosen for the president's office, and Mrs. Charles Schweinfest was elected secretary-treasurer. The business meeting was preceded by an enjoyable luncheon, to which each member contributed one of her favorite dishes. Mrs. Watters had arranged her luncheon table with lovely flowers of the season. For their afternoon program, Las Amigas heard Eleanor Elliott of the Anaheim Gazette, in a talk on her writing duties with the late T. A. Willard of Beverly Hills, whose fame as inventor of the Willard Storage battery, was second to that of a scientist, interested in the early Mayan ruins of the Yucatan peninsula. Some of his investigations in the ruined city of Chichen Itza, and the archaeological treasures brought from the depths of its ancient "well of sacrifice," were described. Some of these jade and gold ornaments are now in the Peabody Museum of Boston, but others were retained by the Mexican government. Las Amigas will meet again on May 18 when the new officers will be installed. Supervisors Deny Palmistry Permits "Cross your palm with silver, Lady," will be non-existent in Orange county, according to the board of supervisors. For the board at its meeting this week, denied palmistry licenses to two applicants Mary Williams and Kay Williams. This followed recent adoption of a county ordinance outlawing all fortune telling except upon payment of a $30-a-day license. Prominent Men Of Garden Grove Lost By Drowning Tragedy struck during the past week directly at the heart of two Garden Grove homes when what was planned as a few days of relaxation in fishing off the coast near Ensenada, resolved itself into sorrow when W. S. (Clair) Head, Garden Grove postmaster, and Dr. A. C. Robbins, prominent physician of the community, apparently met their death by drowning. Mr. and Mrs. Head and Dr. and Mrs. Robbins left Garden Grove last week for the outing, the two men went fishing on Monday morning in a small outboard motor boat believed to be the property of Dr. Robbins. They failed to return to Ensenada where their wives were anxiously awaiting them, and on Wednesday when the boat was found floating bottom side up near the Ensenada shore line, families and friends resigned all hope. Mrs. Robbins and Mrs. Head returned to their homes and up to the present have had to bear the sad fact that the two bodies have not been recovered. Mr. and Mrs. Head have a daughter, Miss Vera Head, a student at Santa Barbara State Teachers college. Dr. and Mrs. Robbins have three sons, David of Alameda, Arthur, with the armed forces, and Lieut. Frederick Robbins now stationed in Virginia. A savory golden-brown bird is smart table-talk for a party anytime—but these days it means "meat" without meat-coupons. Yes, and a protein food that's almost on a par with beef, so fowl scores again nutritionally. But to be sure you make the most of its food values, cook slowly on your gas range at low temperature. This week, we submit two of our favorite chicken recipes: Fricasseed Chicken 4 to 5 pounds chicken 2½ cups milk Flour Salt Pepper Paprika 3 tablespoons butter Method: Dredge pieces of chicken in well-seasoned flour. Brown in oiled skillet. Dot with butter. Pour milk over chicken. Cover pan and turn flame to simmer position and cook until tender. Serves 6.
