TULSA, Okla, Oct. 11.-Repre-
sentative Richard r. Hairless of Ari-
IONA and the former Follies girl he
hopes to make his wife were deter
mined to take q firm grip on the
altar and see 1t through today after
three dismal failures.
Sizing it up, Mr.. Hairless and Miss
Meredith Howard, Washington host
ess, just couldn't figure anything
else that might thwart the knot
tying scheduled this afternoon at
Boston Avenue Methodist Church
1t seems everything that could
happen has happened since the for
mer Ziegfeld Follies beauty, now 80
and the Arizona Democrat decided
to be married.
First, arrangements were made In
Knoxville, Tenn, by Representative
and Mrs. Estes Kefauver. but the
bride, with q BRIDES prerogative,
decided the wedding would be much
nicer in Tulsa, where her father,
s. j. Howard, lives. It also was in
Tulsa that she and her twin, Vir-
ginia, were selected in 1927 as the

ing. She remembered leaving it
in Chattanooga, Tenn. and an
emergency call was put in to air
express. But at best, it would have
arrived too late for the ceremony.
That's when the bride and groom
elect threw up their hands. Today
they'll try to, get the principals. the
parson, the guests and the hat to-
gether at one time.
Miss Howard won her Follies con-
tract after her appearance In the
Atlantic City contest and in 1929
married Z. Talbert Spurlock Of Hic-
kory, N. c. The marriage was an
nulled shortly thereafter.
In 1894 she married Studebaker
heir, Albert Russell Erskine. jr., and
was divorced In 1887. Miss Howard's
twin, Virginia, now lives In Cali
fornia with o younger sister, Mary.

So they came to Tulsa, and the

That time it was called OF because
the guests were late.
It was reset for yesterday after
noon, and more trouble set in. The
license bureau at first refused tc
recognize the couples health GER

Chief Warns
Youngsters
On Bike-Riding

Chief of Police T. J. Davis to-
day issued a warning to youth
full traffic offenders, reminding
them that the place for bicycle
riding is in the street and not on
the sidewalks of the business
district of town.
The chief said he has noticed
a number of attractions of the
law on the part of a number OF
young boys who insist in whiz-
zing at high speeds down the
crowded sidewalks endangering
pedestrians. He said other off
GERS have reported the same
thing.
1--WE are not trying to threaten
anybody" Chief Davis said.
"but it must be realized by these
boys and by their parents that
their riding bicycles on side
walks a real hazard to safety in
the town. We are fortunate in
being able to report that there
have been no accidents yet, but
it is entirely possible that some
one may be badly injured simp'
ly because of the carelessness
of boys who ride bicycles in
places where they have no bust
ness"
