'’ : .ft; Mrs. Ronald D. Meyer —Photo by Anspaugh Meyer-McDonald Vows Repeated This Morning

Vases of white gladioli, white pew bows, and the traditional white carpet enhanced the St. Mary’s Catholic church this morning when Miss Ann McDonald and Ronald D. Meyer exchanged vows before the Rev. Robert Jaeger. Mr. and Mrs. Glenn W. McDonald are parents of the bride and the bridegroom is the only son of Mr. and Mrs. Cletus Meyer. Lace and tulle fashioned the gown worn by the bride, who was given in marriage by her father. The fitted bodice came to a modified V neckline that was edged with scallops of lace and sprinkled with sequins. Long fitted sleeves came to points over her hands. Lace was repeated in the skirt that had large circular side panels. Her tulle skirt, that was over ruffled taffeta, formed a brush train in the back. Miss McDonald’s fingertip veil of ilWsiuir was caught to a crown of pearls and to complete her attire, she carried a white lace prayer book topped with a white orchid. Miss Mary Kneuss, a friend of the bride, was the maid of honor in a white nylon over aqua taffeta gown. Features of the bodice were the scalloped neckline and fitted sleeves. Encircling her waist was an aqua cummberbund that came to a large bow at the back. A white cutaway hat held her shoulder length veil and she carried a bouquet of pink lace carnations. Miss Dee Schroeder, another friend of the bride, was the bridesmaid in a matching gown in pink taffeta. Her headpiece and bouquet were the same as the honor attendant. Meyer was attended by Paul Faurote who was best man, and Dave Herimann, Dale Hakes, and Tom Meyer, who seated the guests. For her daughter’s marriage.

DECATUR DAILY DEMOCRAT, DECATUR, INDIANA

Urges Women Take Daily Leg Exercise - By GAY PAULEY UPJ Women’s Editor NEW YORK (UPD—We women pay for the lazy way we care for our legs, says a ballerina with a pair of the shapeliest gams in town. Diana Adams advocates daily leg exercises whether you're a dancer whose, feet are your fortune or whether you’re just a girl trying to look your best in the new fashions. ! ‘’Leg care is like skin care; [you oon't ever stop,” said the ; brown-haired star of the New .York City Ballet Co. ‘‘ln my own 'case, if I neglect regular warmups, it takes me three weeks to get back to what I call concert pitch.” Miss Adams has to keep on her toes, but her suggestions for foot and leg exercises based on ballet technique will help the rest of us look our best in the new 16 and 17-inch hemlines. I’ll start with the one which which sounds the most restful, and also the easiest — 15 to 20 minutes of soaking tootsies in tepid water. This is routine with the dancer after a performance. She says that while soaking, she works the toes up and down, flexes the arches and stretches the feet at the ankles as far up and down as possible. When the fatigue from strenuous dancing has passed, she dries her feet and massages them thoroughly with petroleum jelly, with particular emphasis on heels, 'toes and instep. The lubricant ‘‘keeps us from getting blisters or callouses,' she explained in an interview. ‘ Put your feet up whenever possible,” she said. It may not be a ladylike pose, but it relaxes muscles and helps circulation. For strengthening arches and improving posture, she recommended this “stretcher.” Barefooted, rise slowly from a flat foot position to as high on tiptoe as possible. As you pull up on your toes, raise the arms overhead and stretch. Herter Dissipates West Berlin Fears BERLIN (UPD —U.S. Secretary of State Christian A. Herter promised West Berliners today th? West will never accept a Soviet deadline for withdrawing its troops from the divided city. Herter flew to the isolated city from Geneva for a six-hour visit to demonstrate Western determination to hold Berlin in the face of Soviet threats. In a speech at city hall he clearly and emphatically dissipated fears the west might allow its position here to be undermined in an effort to reach agreement with Russia ah the Geneva foreign ministers’ conference. “Much has been said at Geneva about the question of Western rights in Berlin,” Herter said. “These rights are clear and cannot be terminated by the unilateral action of any other power. We have not accepted and will not accept any deadline on them.” He said the United States has said repeatedly it will defend West Berlin and “this is a binding commitment and the U. S. will abide I by it.”

Libel Suits Threatened By i Teamster Head i ' : WASHINGTON (UPD— Threats ' of libel suits spread in two sepai rate directions today from Team- - ster President James R. Hoffa 1 and his union’s attorney, Edward ■ Bennett Williams. Hoffa, it was learned, is pre* ; paring libel action against Senate * Rackets Committee Counsel Rob- ' ert F. Kennedy, the NBC televii sion network and late-at-night TV ■ performer Jack Paar. > Williams said he would detert of his own against New 'York lawyer Bartley C. Crum and any- ’ one quoting Crum’s latest statet ment about him. I Hoffa’s reported intention to sue f stemmed from things Kennedy 1 said about him last Wednesday night on Paar's show on NBC-TV. > Kennedy, on the Paar program, , repeated some of the charges he > had leveled against Hoffa and his • associates during hearings of the rackets committee. The charges ' were immune from libel action 5 there, but not if made elsewhere. J Kennedy, reached Friday night - at his summer home on Cape t Cod, declared he would “wel--5 come” Hoffa’s threatened libel ' suit. ? “It will get the facts before the ’ courts,” Kennedy said. ’ Williams sent up the libel flare ’ when advised by a newsman that ' Crum had re-clarified a clariflcar tion of testimony which Crum 1 gave before the rackets committee July 13. 3 Crum, two days ago, sent the ” committee a sworn affidavit clear- ’ ing Williams of any “inference” , of a bribe attempt. But Friday. 1 Crum denied a Teamster claim ’ that he thus had “retracted” his t sworn testimony. Williams, when told that Crum ’ said his testimony "remains as it I was given, maintained that Crum’s testimony “was exactly what I said about it before the committee under oat.” The main thing Williams said about it there was that the testimony was false. The next step. Williams said, was to determine whether Crum’s statement, distributde in a mimeographed news release from the rackets committee, had the „ same immunity against lawsuits r as an official document. t o o s Modern Etiquette | By ROBERTA LEE I y o— o Q.

U.S. Files Protest On Red Jet Attack WASHINGTON (UPD — The United States has charged that a Communist jet attack on a Navy patrol plane last month amounted to “attempted murder over the high seas.” An official U.S. protest was lodged with the North Korean and Chinese Communist volunteer army Friday night for the incident. The protest was relayed to the Communists by the United Nations Command at a special meeting of the armistice commission in Panmunjom, Korea. The Navy said last week an inquiry had determined that the . two Russian - built MIG planes flew out of North Korea to at* ‘ tack the four-engine patrol plane .. over international waters and then . returned behind the Bamboo Curtain. Maj. Gen. William Bidd.e, senior member of the U.N. team on ? the Military Armistice Commission, delivered the protest. Il | called the attack “illegal and un--5 provoked” and said there was ho , doubt the hostile action was “premeditated and intentional.” Aviation Eelectronics Mate 3-C 1 Donald Eugene Corder of Jacksonville, 111., suffered 50 shrap- ’ nel wounds when the Red MIGs swooped down on the U.S plane ' over the Sea of Japan. The protest said the U.S. plane at no time was over Communist territory. It described the flight as a routine reconnaissance mission such as Soviet and North Korean aircraft carry out in hte same area. » o O Household Scrapbook By ROBERTA LEE "• O O Paint Odor To remove the odor of fresh paint from a room, cut a few pieces of lemon into a pail of water, place in the room and allow this to remain for several hours.

Thank Blood Donors For Girl's Operation Authorities at the I. U .medical center put donations of blood . through their own extensive tests, j Mrs. Lawrence Rash said Friday, recalling July 7, when she and ten other area residents -traveled to Indianapolis to give blood to be used in an operation five-year-old Deborah Ann Seitz underwent July 8. When the group arrived at the medical center, they answered questions, and a sample of their blood was tested to detect factors that must not be in the blood when it is given whole, as was required for this operation. “They didn’t even ask for my card” Mrs. Rash said, recalling her surprise. After the tests were over and the pints of blood were taken, they were placed in plastic bags before being put into the heart-lung machine which took over the circulation of blood during the operation. The plastic bags, Mrs. Rash recalled, were something the authorities at the center were proud of, for the I. U. center was the first place such containers for ! blood donations had been used. Afterwards, the blood donors ] received a letter from the medi- 1 cal center, saying “The fact that you have qualified under the necessarily rigid tests before you were accepted as a blood donor indicated that you are blessed with good blood and good health. These are precious gifts.” Mrs. Rash confirmed this, commenting that she felt she had had a very good checkup when she gave the donation. Concluding by thanking the donors, the center spoke for itself on the value of blood donations: “The contribution you have made may spell the difference between life and death for a person less fortunate than you. The purpose of our blood bank program is to have the proper blood available at the right time. A delay in a case where a transfusion of whole blood is required may prove fatal to the patient. Again thanks.” Thomas Zehr Named i Pastor's Assistant Thomas K. Zehr, a native of Berne, has been appointed pastor’s - assistant and director of music and > visitation of the First Missionary church.
