wish came true.
At midnight, Nov, 6. Bettie Hall

Bettie first learned she had received the homecoming honor only

named on the field.
"I felt like it couldn't be happening to me, as If it wasn't real,"
the 5 feet 1 brunette recalls.

he had snapped several pictures,
he bent over and asked her very
curiously, "what is it that you

Our Bleeding Trees
During the spirited campaign for
Homecoming queen last week, we
noted that the usually stringent enforcement of the rule prohibiting the
tacking and nailing of posters to campus trees was not being enforced.
Fosters proclaiming the merits of
the many candidates were affixed to
our arborial neighbors with all nature
of tacks and nails ranging from carpet
tacks to railroad spikes.

Wedding Time For The Plain Folk

work on the farms is finished in this
famed Pennsylvania Dutch country
and that means it's marrying time
among the Amish people.
The heralding of tlie
romantic season came recently as
the first couples proudly showed their
licenses.
Many more will come forward this
week to get their licenses, prelude to
weddings which for the Amish folk
are strictly November milestones.
And not just any time in the
cusmonth, either. By

couple may marry only on Tuesdays
and Thursdays.
But if the code is strict on the
score of waiting for wedlock until
all farm work is clone, it imposes few
constrictions upon the nuptial festivities themselves.
An Amish wedding day starts
alKHit 8:30 a.m., ami lasts until well
after sundown. It is by no means uncommon for as many as 400 to 500

guests to assemble. Guitar and harmonica artists come from miles
around to entertain, concert style, and
to play for the dancing.
In even livelier vein, married
friends of the groom try to pitch him
over a fence, a ritual symbolizing
a new status.
Friends of the bride perform a
traditional rite, too. They hide a
broom in the bride's house always
the scene of an Amish wedding with
the intent of tricking her into step- ping over it. Once she has done that
she is recognized by nil as ;i married'
woman. It is a transparent deception
which finds brides unfailingly respon- sive.

.

Not the least, of the attractions
is a big meal at midday,. showing oif
a variety, of superbly cooked dishes,
with ample leftovers for supper.
Gaiety is by no means the whole
story, however. To the Amish a wedding is one of the most spiritual of
human experiences. Hymns are sung,
prayers spoken. The actual service
is performed without rings. A bishop

clasps the hands of bride and groom

The bride is gowned in blue or- gandie, with white apron and cap.
Neither she nor anyone else wears
flowers. In the time of courtship she
wore bright colors. As a wife, she'll

Yet another custom, just as bind- Jog, obligates the newlyweds to buy

Through the winter the new husbands will drive round the country,

that they do this because it makes
them feel bolder and older. In short,
it seems to allow them to switch
from 5 o'clock shadow at the office to
6 o'clock Vandyke at the cinema with
a minimum of bother.
This kind of plagiarism may have
logic on its side. If all the world's
a stage, the young office clerk ought
to be entitled as the matinee idol to
a (".;.' ib of spirit gum on the chin.
If teenage boys arc allowed to run
around pretending they are astronauts, their brothers just out of the
chrysalis certainly ought to be tolerated as imitation pogonots.
But the trouble isn't in the wearing, it's in the delusion. Like Aldous

Huxley's character, Gumbril, these
erstwhile boulevard iers appear to be
drawing strength from some other
Samson's locks. They feel !kK1 when
they stick their fake beards on. But,
says our report, the reason they don't
grow real whiskers is that they are
afraid of what their office bosses
would say.
Theatrical whiskers would stem
to be needed more during tlie woik-in- g
