Nb6nN DiuC oAlco SulllcQ On MISS
1 Anna May Hsi-en Ing and Mr..
Y Tennyson Chang when they
were married yesterday after
noon in the garden Of the Twin Oaks,
where the Chinese Ambassador, DR..
Chengting T. Wang, and his daughters
make their Washington home. The
lovely garden of this charming old
home, with its giant trees and rolling
lawn, was chosen by the daughter Of
the Counselor Of the Embassy and
Mrs. Ing and her f1ance The Am
bassador read the civil service at $50
o'clock before group of guests in
cluding members Of the two families
and representatives of those who could
not make the trip halfway around the
world for the wedding. Although two
ceremonies are the custom in Euro
pean countries. they are unusual in
China and rare in this country. The
order of the service yesterday began
with harp solo, played by Miss Anna
Lois Greene, accompanied by string
trio. including Grace Powell, violinist;
Louis Potter, jr., cellist, and Gertrude
Dyre, pianist. At the close of the civil
ceremony the Ambassador introduced
the Rev. DR.. Edward Hughes Pruden,
pastor of the First Baptist Church,
who off1ciated at the religious cere-
mony. DR.. Pruden then presented
the "go-betweens," important persons
in weddings and wedding arrange
ments in China. DR.. P. c. Chang, pro-
fessor at Nankai University, on behalf
OF the bridegroom, and DR.. and Mrs.
Leonard Hsu on behalf of the bride.
DR.. Hsu is former chairman of the
department of sociology at Yenching
University at Peiping, and DR.. and
Mrs Pruden both taught at the Uni
versity Of Shanghai, where the bride
was student. and her parents both
taught at the Nankai University.
DR.. Chih Meng, director of the
China Institute in New York, was the
representative of the elders of the
Chang family" who were unable to
attend the ceremonies in person. DR..
Meng also is an alumnus of Nankai.
The speeches OF the "go-betweens"
were Immediately followed by the ben
ediction. which DR.. Pruden pro-
nounced, and the reception, also in
the garden, completed the ceremonies.
Owing to the war in China arrange
ments for the wedding were as simple
as could be and the bride and her
attendants were dressed in cotton mar
quisette, while the Chinese silk which
Mrs. Ing. mother of the bride, wore
was brought from her native land.
The bride chose simple model for
her gown and was married in white
cotton marquisette rather than red,
the traditional color for brides in
China. However, the carpet over
which the wedding party proceeded to
the bower where the ceremonies were
performed was of red sateen instead of
the customary white runner used in
this country. The skirt of her wedding
gown fell in graceful folds and ter
minated in long train at the back
