 At 7:30 o'clock last night at the height of the elaborate reception on the spacious lawns surrounding the colonial mansion of Governor Trum- bull on Pennington avenue, Plain vile, the couple climbed into the of ficial Connecticut automo obile. and were driven away.

 that they will pay a visit 10 Ply mouth, Vt, where Calvin Coolidge was sworn in as president of the United States. the homestead of the Coolidge family. No one, however. is certain of where they are going or

 Shower after shower of confetti rained down on the happy pair as they joined each other and laughing ly gave their farewells to their par ents and friends.
 Parents Say Goodbye
 The two distinguished fathers stood on one side while the two mothers both charming to an eX- treme degree. stood on the other. A half smile played about the features of Calvin Coolidge while Governor Trumbull threw dignity 10 the winds as he clasped his daugh- ter and wrung the hand of his son. in-law.
 Tie eyes of the mothers, shining in the reflected happiness of their children, were seen to fill up as the time came for a last farewell.
 Then the automobile sped away.
 Shortly afterward. the senior Coolidges lost no time in entering their motor car to start the drive home to Northampton, Mass.
 It was a quiet evening at the Trumbull home, only a few neighbors and intimate friends calling to re- view the eventful day with the gov ernor and his wife.
 The handshaking technique of the former president, developed while he was an occupant of the White House, stood him in good stead as he greet ed the long line of guests that filed past the receiving line at the we'd ding reception.
 He also consented to pose for photogra phs but he spoiled the care fully laid and slyly prepared plans of a talking movie concern to get coveted reel of sound pictures when he noticed a bulge in an oriental rug on the floor on which he was stand ing.
