came the bride of 1t. Jorge Enrique
Tristani, U. s. N. r., son of Mr.. and

Rain and traffic jam made the
lovely bride and her father, Sena-

for the ceremony scheduled to take
place at noon. But the elements
did not dampen the enthusiasm and
interest of the numerous friends of
the Chavez family. The cathedral
was filled to seating capacity with
some guests standing when Msgr.
