PIGK OLDER HUBBIES Young Girls Pass Up Boys of Own Age. By United Press LONDON, March 2.—London flappers “like ’em older,” for marriage purposes, at least. Figures from the marriage bureaus show that out of 47,500 brides under 21, the majority picked boys of from 21 to 23 as life partners; one girl of 17 married a man of 64, however, and one girl of 15 became the bride of a man of 70. Romance apparently is flourishing among England’s younger women. An average of slightly less than one bride in six last year was under 21. And the fact that they very often choose their husbands from those older than themselves is attributed to the increased earning power of the men.
