MISS DOROTHY BIEBERICH MARRIES DONALD BIENZ I One of the prettiest of the spring weddings was solemnized Sunday afternoon at three-fifteen o’clock in the Zion Lutheran church when Miss Dorothy Bieberich, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Henry Bieberich of I South Sixth street, became the l | bride of Emil Bienz, son of Mr.'l and Mrs. Adam Bienz of Union J township. The Rev. Paul W. Schultz, .pastor |cf the church, received the vows In I a double ring ceremony in the chancel of the church, before an altar of j lijlies and ferns. Preceding the ceremony. Mrs. I Paul W. Schultz gave a fifteen-min-1 | nte musicale including “Berceuse” ' 1 y Benjamin Godard and “Voix Cel-i leste" by Batiste. Phil Sauer sang a! ! solo “Take Time to Me Holy, Let I I Him Be Thy Guide.” Wagner’s | “Bridal; Chorus” from Lohengrin wan played for the processional and Mendelsshon’s “Wedding March” i from Midsummer Night’s Dream as the recessional. Soft strains of muI sic were heard during the cereI mony, including "Prayer” by W. D. j Armstrong and “Andante” by | Phipps. The bride wore a gown of calaise lace over satin, simply fashioned with a long train, a Queen Ann collar, long sleeves full at the shouldors, tight fitting at the elbow and ending in long pointe over the hands. Her veil of double tiered illusion was arranged with a halo of I . orange blossoms. She cariied a; shower bouquet of Giganteum 111-1 I lies, fever few and sweet peas.

By HARRISON CARROLL Copyright, 1938 King Features Syndicate, Inc. HOLLYWOOD—Lights! Camera! Action! Most unusual sight on a Hollywood

sound stage this week is that of Joan Bennett, clad in buckskins and helping repulse an Indian attack upon a covered wagon train. The dainty star is doing a scene at Paramount for “The Texans” and she looks about as much at

yjPy ■"* k 1 JU ■*?? Kd Joan Bennett

home as a Dresden china shepherdess in a shooting gallery. With a sly grin, Director James Hogan instructs Joan how to load a rule which she must pass on to Robert Cummings, crouched beside her in the wagon box. “And you’ll have to take the polish off yonr nails." he comments dryly. While Joan is doing this, an assistant director reloads Cummings gun with shells containing a onefourth charge of powder. If they used a full charge, the microphone would pick up su-" echoes that the actors would have to wait five seconds after each shot before they spoke a line of dialogue. Now the scene is ready to go. The Indians, lolling on the backs of their ponies, are told to throw away their cigarets. Bearded defenders are moved farther from Miss Bennett because the sound of shots frighten her. Then the attack is on. Indians careening by, firing at the wagons, some of them taking fancy falls. . White men answering. . . . Regular old time movie stuff. In the midst of the excitement, Joan forgets to blow the smoke out of the rifle barrel, but manages to go through the motions of loading the gun. When Hogan yells cut, she looks up at the lot of us grinning at her from behind the camera. She shrugs. n "Buck Bennett rides again, she says. We don’t see the shot, but they

match and Miss Bienz wore peach i with matching sandals. They cartied mixed colonial bouquets and I wore Waddeau veils corresponding with the color of the dresses. The maid of honor wore a gown of powder blue mousseline de soue fashioned with a full skirt, with lace insertions, a bolero jacket with short puffs of Briarcliff roses. The groom and his attendants wore dark blue suits with black, silk ties and white buttonieres. After the ceremony a dinner was nr id at the home of the .bride's parents for twenty-five guests, followed with a reception In the evening for eighty-five guests. The dining table was centered with a three tiered wedding cake with candelabra at either end. Large hampers . of spring flowers were used in the j decorations. Small corsages marked i the place of each guest at the dinner. The groom is employed at the Decatur Casting company. Mr. and Mrs. Bienz will be at home in their apartment on North Second street. o Charles (Buck) Baxter of the state conservation department is visiting his relatives here today. W. W. Briggs of Geneva was look-| ing after business here last evening. Roy Bieberstlne, road! sttperindendent for the Fort Wayne district 'of the state highway commission was here today. Mrs. John Peterson has returned from Indianapolis, where she spent the past week visiting with her son, J. Dwight Peterson and family. Mrs. I. A. Kalver of North Fourth street, who was painfully injured when she was hit by an automobile several days ago is confined to her I bed.

tell us May Robson was almost as funny lying on her stomach in the dirt and firing a rifle at the savages. May plays the owner of a ranch, which is amusing because she is terribly afraid of cattle. “You know,” she says, “they just look at me as if they didn’t like me.” All the studios are going in for rugged melodrama. At Warner Brothers, we watch Director William Keighley shoot a scene In a gambling house for “Valley of the Giants”. This story already has served Wallace Reid and Milton Sills as a starring vehicle. Now, Wayne Morris plays the hero. But Morris Is not in this particular scene. It is a shot of Jack La Rue and Claire Trevor at a dice table. Jack runs the game, Claire is a percentage girl. The set Is filled with 1902 barroom types. The extras are really enjoying themselves because most of them are playing cards. In silent picture days, extras always played cards between scenes. Now the guild frowns on it during working hours. Every year, it becomes less fun making movies. In a scene for “Spawn of the North", Dorothy Lamour has traded her

sarong for a red knit sweater and a blue wool skirt. However, as both are tight fits, the Lamour charms are not being hidden under a bushel. Dorothy is working with George Raft In this picture. She is sitting

on a bed and the camera is In place for a closeup. "Quiet,” appeals Director Henry Hathaway, "this is a difficult scene.” Then, with unconscious humor, he concludes, "Now, Dorothy, just look down as If you were thinking."

WINTER WHEAT OUTLOOK HIGH Experts Predict Largest Winter Wheat Crop Since 1931 Chicago, May 3 —(U.R) America's I "big four" of private crop experts today reported that April snows, rain and sleet storms, instead of destroying a large portion of the winter wheat crop, increased prospects for the biggest crop since 1931. Increases In surface and subsoil ; moisture have furthered crop : growth so far that today the average of their estimates for winter wheat production was placed at 743,000,000 bushels. This was an increase of 26,000,000 bushels over the outlook 30 days ago. On April 1 the average estimate was placed at 717.000,000 bushels, a seven year high, but out-of-season : snows, sleet storms and even "dusters" struck the southwest | winter wheat belt, bringing fear that a large part of the harvest I would be destroyed. But today the four individual ■ estimates ranged from the 730,000.1000 forecast by B. W. Snow to 1771,000,000 bushels predicted by Nat C. Murray. The estimates: Nat C. Murray 771,000,000 H. C. Donovan ... 745.000.000 R. O. Cromwell ... 738,000,000 B. W. Snow 730,000,000. In addition. Mrs. E. H. Miller predicted last Saturday that the crop would reach 719,00(5,000 and the .firm of Bennett & Co. estimated the crop at 755,000,000 J bushels. Today’s estimated yield is 120,000.000 bushels greater than the five year average of 1928-1932 when an annual crop of around 623,000,000 bushels was harvested. Although heavy damage was reported from frosts, and other blasts . of nature in sections of Kansas. Oklahoma and Texas, good rains since April 1 increased prospects in other sections of the winter

The crop reporters pointed out, however, that it may be another two weeks before any really accurate estimate can be made of the amount of April damage to winter wheat. Snow estimated the spring wheat plant at 22,000,000 acres, 5,000,000 acres more than that from which a harvest was made last year. Cromwell, only other forecaster to comment on spring wheat today.
