VeStigateS the cost of a wedding.
But these days the girls are adam
ant. They want big wedding with
bridesmaids, seven TERED cakes,
flowers and good sized reception,
fathers worried look not with
standing. Most fathers love the
idea too, even if they must mort
gage the old family homestead to
walk down the aisle in style.
Four-months before the big event
smart girls start planning wedding
dress, bridesmaids, invitations, flo
wers. Parents at this point are
reconciled to the whole idea and
enter into the spirit of it.
One group of girls queried at the
University of California on the
question of what type of wedding
they would plan if they were plan

suspicious of any father.
Said Joni Mannix, women's edi-
tor of The Daily Trojan: II want
huge wedding when get mar
ried-a big old fashioned affair in
a real pretty church. And l want
nice reception afterwards.
That ought to be enough to make
any parents wallet wiggle.
Terry Fait, a freshman, feels
the same way and adds that she
wants lots of bridesmaids and
ushers, and the whole works" Per-

Following an inspection tour by a group of Palmer business men last week, the Matanuska Valley Fair Association this week made formal application for the acquisition of a 60- x 240-foot building from the District Engineers in Anchor age.
 Business men making the in spection were impressed by the size of the structure and anticipate numerous uses to which the structure can be put to use if acquired.
 Proposed uses of the build ing, and possibly a second one of the same size, included headquarters and storage space for Civil Defense and military. Also quarters for the U. $. Army Reserve and a large sec tion for community affairs.

 Emile Ganschow, Council trea- surer, reported a total of S776.00 was collected during the past year. About half of this amount was realized from membership sales and the balance from dona- tions made by various organiza- tions in the valley. The money has been spent down to about $52.00, he said Much of this amount was spent for the sum- mer playground program spon- sored by the group this past summer, and a small amount went for part of the fuel oil used in clearing the recreation lot. There still remains one bill against the organization that is in excess of the bank balance, it was am nounced.
 Various means in which to raise money for the Councils projects were discussed. It is possible than another dance will be held shortly after Easter, as a fund-raising project.

It would also permit the Department of Agriculture to maintain stockpile of Vaccines ;anG serUlns not available in the Territory for emergency use.
 An agricultural enabling Act is needed. whereby producers of 2 ecHrAamccrop within specified areas could voluntarily impose restric- elGE son quality or grade, assess themselves for advertising and promotion programs. This LegiS- lation is in effect in practically every State, and of course the en- abling Act itself merely sets up the machineryfor such marketing programs and is not in itself eff Eecting any crop. Restrictions un- oqfer this program would require a two third affirmative vote of farmers representing at least 5l percent of the crop before becon- ing effective. The Departmnt of Agriculture office is working with various farm people in drafting a proposed Act, and when com pleted, it will be discussed at farmer meetings to determine its acceptability.
 At a recent farmer meeting, two other suggestions were received by the Department, one of which was that farm trucks and trac- tors used on the farm and which enter into roads only for hauling owners farm supplies or products for short distances, should be h. censed at the passenger car rate
 The Department feels this is a IeQitirnate request. Wilson said he knows number of farmers whc are required 10 pay commercial airense fee for trucks, which pro bablY do moi travel 100 miles year on public roads.
