Jayne Mansfield Is Married Last Night Actress Is Wed To Ex-Mr. Universe PALOS VERDES ESTATES, Calif. (UP>—Blonde Ja/ne Mansfield, a vision of pink in a formfitting wedding dress. Monday night got her man but not her wish for a quiet, solemn wedding ceremony without “fuss and publicity." Fans and friends looked on as the bosomy, 24-year-old actress and Mickey Hargitary. 29-year-old former-Mr. Universe, were wed tn the glass-walled modernistic Wayfarer’s Chapel of the Church of New Jerusalem. Thousands of curious, including chanting teenagers in blue jeans, jammed the area, craning their necks to see through and around the shrubbery which partly hid the ceremony inside the chapel. Traffic was blocked a mile and a half along the highway below the church. Floodlights lighted the scene and red flares lined the road. The whole atmosphere was one of a Hollywood premiere. About 100 personal friends jammed the tiny church "Big names" of Hollywood were invited but mostly the guests were hairdressers, technicians, wardrobe mistresses and newsmen—persons the blonde film star met in her work in pictures. Jayne’s mother, Mrs. Hayj:y £ jL. Peers, Dallas, Tex., was matron of honor. Ross Christena Indianapolis businessman, was best mah, and Miss Mansfield's stepfather, Harry Peer, gave the bride away. Hargitary took his bride in his arms after the final "I do" and embraced her firmly and for a long time. They turned and walked back to the steps of the church.

Satellite Launching Attempt Scheduled Scientists Doubtful Os Successful Test CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. HF — Scientists indicated today they will not be surprised if the tiny test satellite to be carried aloft in the Navy’s Vanguard rodket fails to' orbit. The Second launching attempt is expected this week. There has been no official word on the firing, but there were strong indications it will come this week if Weather conditions favorable. Officials have made it. clear to the scores of newsmen and photographers here that there will be no advance notice unless* there is an official policy change in Washington. The Baltimore Evening Sun reported Monday night that this week’s satellite attempt would be made with the Army’s Jupiter-C missile. There was no indication of this here. Main reason for the news blackout surrounding the Vanguard is that officials want to avoid another serious blow to the nation’s prestige such as resulted from the failttre Dec. 6 to orbit an artificial satellite with the Vanguard. It was emphasized before the, December launching that chances of the six-inch test satellite going into orbit 300 miles in the sky were “remote." Still, officials evidently feel. U. S. prestige suffered from fanfare given the nation’s failure to produce a satellite to .match Russia’s already - orbiting Sputniks. Trade in a good town — Decatur

Seek Pay Increase For Armed Forces 508 Million Dollar Increase Is Sought WASHINGTON (UP)-In a fast follow-up to President Eisenhower's budget message the administration today planned to hand Congress a bill carrying out a 508 million dollar pay raise for the armed forces. The President said in Monday’s message he wanted to reward “proficiency and merit” to stimulate trained men to follow military careers.
