By ANN CONNELL Beglster-Guard Society Editor A wedding which reads like a fictional tale of romance was to take place Saturday afternoon in LaJolla, Calif., and its principals are both from Eugene. The bride is Miss Julianna Hegyi, daugh ter of Mr. and Mrs. Ferencz Hegyi of Buda pest, Hungary; the bridegroom is Endre Bar tanyi, son of Mr. and Mrs. Laszlo Bartanyi of Miskole, Hungary. Both born in Hungary, they escaped to this country about the same time, but were not together, had never met. They have discovered that both attended the same ball in their homeland on one oc casion, but nothing brought them together at that time. She came to Seattle, and he to Carmel in California. It was in Seattle, on a skiing trip, that they met, through the offices of a mutual friend who thought they should know each other and served as the hand of Fate: Miss Hegyi, who had been a student nurse In her homeland, completed her work as a licensed practical nurse and was so em ployed in Seattle. Mr. Bartanyi, who had been in his first year of study to become an architect at University of Budapest, con tinued his studies in this country. He had come to Eugene to study at University of Oregon, at the time of their meeting, and through a correspondence which followed their meeting, persuaded her to come here and enroll, as well. For the past two years, she has lived in Eugene, has been a part time student at U of 0, and has worked , also for Town and Travel. Mr. Bartanyi completed his work for his degree early this year, and now is employed as an architect In LaJolla, where she went to join him late in the past week. The wedding was set for Saturday after noon in the Catholic church named for Mary, Star of the Sea. and the Rt. Rev. Msgr. V Clarkin was to read the rites. Friends of the groom were to attend the couple, and dinner would be given by the same friends following tiie wedding. Miss Hegvi's wedding attire was a sheath dress of Irish linen lace in off-white, with matching linen coat. The dress, with which she planned to wear a brief, plain veil of mil lion, had square neck and short sleeves. She Jit I ' ' I- I if --"'Vv s Junction City Church is Setting for Wedding MRS. ENDRE BARTANYI would wear elbow-length gloves, and slippers of white linen with insets of Irish lace to match her dress. Her flowers were to be white carnations. With her bridal dress, she would wear an ivory bracelet which had been her mother's, one of the few things which she brought with her from her homeland. They did not plan a wedding trip at this time; it was a long journey which brought them together to make their home in a new country, it is enough. But someday, they plan to go back together if not to Hungary, to some city near its borders where their par ents may come for a joyful reunion.
