Tea 8�o.S� �ewe A troupe of European acrobats brought along with them, to "support" them in their U.S. circus tour, a 66 -foot tapered aluminum tower. Atop this ro- tates a' 26 -foot, motor -driven ladder, on which they go through their aerial r=outine. If we were in their tights, we know we'd make darn sure that everything holding us up was plenty strong. No doubt that's why they chose aluminum. Plus the fact that this light metal would make much easier work of erecting the contraption. We're pleased that they, like so. many other people, • found just what they wanted in this light, strong, versatile metal. ` ALUMINUM COMPANY OF CANADA, LTD. -(ALCAN) OUT ON A 'LIMB WITH BILL SMILEY There are a lot of aspects to the weeldy newspaper business that •I enjoy thoroughly, but Writing up weddings is not one of them. The women bring in one of those' forms, with all the details on them. And I mean ALL the details. They write in the space provided, along the edges of the page, and all over the back. The whole thing is com- plicated by arrows pointing to where they left out the vital in- formation that the bridesmaid's lace mittens had appliqued rivulets on them, or something. Throw one of those at the aver- age weekly editor, and you'll hear same language that will curl your hair. He doesn't know where to begin, and when he does, it's only a matter of minutes before he's thoroughly tangled in bouffant taf- feta, crystallette boleros, peau de soie chantilly lace, peter pan waist - length bodices; and tulle illusions. If he knew what some of the words meant, it would help a lot, but all he knows is that there are two kinds of cloth, cotton and wool, and neither is mentioned. Every season, the descriptions get flossier and flossier es the gals discover names of new materials. Same day someone is going to bring me in the dope on a wedding, stating that the bride wore a white dress and accessories, and leave it at that. If it ever happens, and when I get over the shock, I'll personally send said bride a hand- some present. ' Wedding write-ups are fraught with 'pitfalls for the_editor. On chap once wrote what he thought was a pretty smooth description of a wedding. It contained the in- formation that the bride's mother received in a corsage of orchids, neglecting to mention that she also wore clothes. Then there is always the fear- some danger of leaving the "b" out of bride, or getting a "g" in there .and making her a "radiant bridge."

Wedding write-ups, on top of everything else, are incredibly dull. You could read six of them in a row, and, except for the names, not distinguish one from another. They don't need to.be. Even obitu- -aries are h 1e iso. rPp7Atr4 With platitudes. Reports of weddings in a newspaper, if anyone ever had the nerve to vary the ritual of the wording. rr 0 .e ' Instead of containing three in- ches of solid type describing the bride's gown, for example, that space could be used to tell us 'some- thing about her. We'd be interest- ed to know where she went to school, where she worked, her hip, waist and ,bust measurements, how long it took her to get the ring in George's nose, and whether they have a house lined up, or will live unhappily ever after with his dear old mother. , And surely something mor( could be said about the groom than the cold fact that he was there and was supported by the best -man. We'd like to know what he does for a living, when he popped the question, why he thinks two or more can live on his salary, why his mother refused to come to the wedding, and why it is necessary for the best man to support him. 4: * 5 a We'd like to know if the bride's mother thinks they'll be happy, and if not, why not; how much the wedding cost the old man, and whether he can afford it; and what happened to Aunt Jane after that third glass of punch at the recep- tion, to -make her giggle like that. * =a * * Instead of reading a list of places the out-of-town guests were from, it would be more interesting to be told that those hill -billy relatives of the bride's father were not invited to the reception, even though they turned up at the wed- ding.
