Brides Fother Sends
Wedding Invitations
Dear Mrs. Post: Will you please
tell me how the invitations or an
nouncements should be worded
when the parents of the prospec-
tive bride are divorced and have
remarked, and no longer live in
the same city? The father of the
bride insists that the wedding be
held where he lives, and the re-
ception in his house and that of
his second wife.
Answer: The unusual fact that
the father is giving the wedding
does. of course. suggest that the
wording of the invitations be:
Mr.. and Mrs. John Jones
request the honor of your presence
at the marriage of his daughter
Mary
etc.
In this case, 1t is impossible to
mention the brides mother. Even
If her mother goes to the wedding,
she cannot herself invite any one
to it. She may, however. send
announcements to her relatives
and friends who were not invited
to the wedding. The wording
would be:
Mr.. and Mrs. Henry Greene

Certainly we've had disputes with management
But invariably those disputes roned around the

NEVERTHELESS, IT is possible that Toledo to some

But if that is so the responsibility for that LABEL

Even mighty General Motors has agreed to sit down

WITH THE FLOURISH and fanfare of paranoac,
The Blade pundit resorts to distortion and premedated
fraud in an attempt to stamp Toledo "bad labor

Here we might say: What makes "bad labor town."
Strikes and irresponsible unions The Blade would
shout in answer.
And for the sake of argument, let us agree with
these gentlemen

School.
Richard Gosser, Interna-
tional UAW-CIO Vice-Presi-
dent and the principal speak
er at the rally touched off a
spark for the all-out campaign
when he said we have been chal-
lenged to whether we can have
a labor representative in City
Council. Franz Berlacher is en-.
dorsed and supported for the
council seat by the United La.
Dor Committee which represent
all segments of labor in Toledo
as labor's No. / choice for the
council position.
Council Ignored Labor
Mr.. Gosser reminded the audi
ence that City Council members
ignored labor when they SUBJ
mitted the name of Berlacher as
ULCs choice for the vacant seat
when Tom Burke resigned after
being elected to Congress from
the Ninth Congressional District.
They chose to ignore our candi-
date although he was the choice
of labor, Mr.. Gosser said.
He urged those present to
work like they never worked
before up to and on election
day, Tuesday, Nov. 8 to elect
Berlacher to Council. He also
reminded the union and public
members present at the rally, to
urge their family, neighbors and
friends to cast their second and
up to 7th choice votes for the
other labor candidates in the
council race. Il assume, he
said, "that some of you here in.
tend to cast your first choice
vote for some other labor candi-
date probably a friend and if you
do I appeal to you to give Ber.
lacher your second choice vote"
DCIldCuCE anu buIhC
In addition to Mr.. Gosser, a
talk was given by Franz Ber-
lacher, and Rep. Tom Burke.
Short talks were made by the
other labor candidates with all
appealing for the voters to cast
seven votes thus giving each
labor candidate a vote whether
it be second choice and up to
seventh choice. The candidates
in addition to Mr.. Berlacher are
Michael Burke, member of Will
lys-Overland Unit; Harry Shell,
President of the Toledo MESA
Local; Earl Cation, AFL; Herbert
Russell, chairman of Toledo
Steel Tube Unit; Clinton Whit
acre, member of Spicer Unit and
Jack Thomson, member of Auto
Lite Unit. Chester Pawelczak
Polish candidate was introduced
and gave a brief talk.
Vote For Two
Also giving a brlef talK was
Alvin Kruger, a member of
Doehler Jarvis Local and q
candidate for the Board of Edu-
cation board. In his talk he ad-
vised the voters to vote for the
two labor candidates although
three board members are to be
elected. By casting a vote for
myself and Tom Bretherton, the
other labor candidate, it will
strengthen our position, he said
A fine routine of drill team
marching was displayed by the
