YOUNGSTERS STOLE the show all evening last Wednes-
day in the high school auditorium and this winsome
couple; Michelle Cumins and Michael King, received loud
applause. The groom wasn't keen about offering his
arm and the bride was determined to have it. As a

their appearance and we're not sure the bride ever saw
him again.—A-T Photo.
