A prospective bridegroom in
quires: Since the rules for we'd
ding procedure have nothing to
do with church ritual, why is it
so shocking to want to break with
custom occasionally? AS for in
stance, why do you say it's un-
thinkable for a bride who wears
white to want to carry colored
flowers? Or for the best man and
ushers to walk with the maid Of
honor and bridesmaids? Why
can't these secular details be fiex-
ible?"
A splash of color on the pure
white dress of maiden bride is
ijarring because the whiteness of
bridal veil and dress is symbolic
of maiden purity. She could wear
a white trainless dress with hat
trimmed with color and carry
colored flowers too. But please not
color of any sort with bridal
veil. The objection to letting the
bridesmaids and ushers walk to-
|gether Is that the effect is Of the
Ichorus girls and men in a musical
comedy.
Divorce Complications
Dear Mrs. Post: Is it possible to
remain friends with a couple who
are divorcing? What should the
attitude be when we like both and
don't really know enough about
their differences to take sides:
Yet each Is strongly against the
other.
Answer: It is not only possible
but proper, to remain friends OF
both. The only rule of propriety
to remember is to avoid men,
tioning one when you are with
the other-except in answer to q
comment made by one of the other
Of them, to you.
Children at Wedding

to attend the Salvation Army
benefit at the Peruvian Embassy
and on the way stopped to see
the Diplomatic Art Show at In
ternational Student House. Pro-
ceeds from the latter will go to
the National Symphony Orches-
ira. Mrs. Mesta particularly was
interested in the painting by
Nine. Rethore, wife of Col. Re
thore of the French Military Mis-
sion, whose parents lunched with
Mrs. Mesta in Paris just before
she left for this country. Earlier
in the day Mrs. Mesta was guest

Mrs. Clark, Clifford.
In the evening President and
Mrs. Truman, Joined by Secretary
of Defense and Mrs. George C..
Marshall, took in the perform
ance of Mr.. Roberts at the Gayety
Theater.
Peruvian Ambassador and Sen
ora de Berckemeyer had planned
their benefit as garden party but
the frequent downpours drove the
whole affair into the f1ower-f1lled
Embassy where the Navy Band
played for the occasion.
The Swedish Ambassador and
Nine. Bohemian invited stagger-
ing list of friends to their Embassy
for an unusual party stint-per-
formance by a Swedish girl gym
mast group that has been on tour
in this country. Yesterdays Off
and-on weather kept every one
guessing until late afternoon as TO
whether or not the girls would be
able to give their gymnastic show
on the lawn in the rear of the
Embassy. In case of rain the
hostess was prepared to call off
the performance entirely; other
wise the girls were to perform on
q carpet placed over the wet grass.
The some 300 guests who
dropped by between the hours of
$50 and 7:30 couldn't help but
be impressed by the wholesome
and healthy blondness of the Is
girls whose ages ranged from Is
to 20. Their exercises are demon
stration of the special system of
gymnastics originated by man
called Ling in the 10Th century.
School children from 6 to II in
Sweden are required to take them
and the young Swedes present yes
terday are certainly the best pos
sible advertisement of the system.
Tea, coffee and cocktails were
served on the covered terrace of
the Ambassador residence which
drew for the occasion members of
official, diplomatic and residential
Washington.

The Supreme Court started a
bench recess today until January
2, following procedural orders on
the transit radio controversy and
the public school segregation issue
here.
Its major written opinion yes
terday ruled against an Ohio
newspaper, which barred adver-
tising space to firms or persons
who advertised with a competing
radio station.
The court also ruled on one
aspect of the case of William w
Remington, former Commerce De-
partment economist, whose con-
viction on perjury charges was
reversed by the United States
Court of Appeals in New York last
August. Remington had been
found guilty of perjury in deny
ing to a grand jury that he ever
was a Communist.
The appeals court, in sending
the case back mainly on techni-
calities. did not dismiss the in
dictment. The Justice Department
recently obtained a new indict-
ment on charges that Remington
lied at his trial. The department
then sought to have the original
