New York, Sept. 16 UK Ice skating ftar Sonja Henie and
ocialite Winthrop Gardiner, Jr., were married yesterday in a
setting ot blue tulle, white lilies and pink orchidi that lacked
only the glass slippers of a fairy-tale setting.
The marriage Miss Henie's second and Gardiner's fourth
' ""Kvas performed in the Park Ave-
inue Methodist church by the
Rev. Paul Otto before 60 friends
and members of the couple's
immediate families.
Five hundred guests kissed
the bride under a bower of gar
denias at a reception in the Ho
tel Plaza's spacious Terrace
room.
The diminutive skater's wed
ding gown was of sky blue lace
and tulle with an off-shoulder
neckline and a new transparent
and uneven hemline 14 inches
from the floor at front, dipping
to the ankle at back and edged
with a band of sheer blue lace.
Her bouquet was a cascade of
pale pink spray orchids.
A feather hat and shoulder
high shirred lace gloves matched
the dress, as did her blue satin
slippers.
Miss Henie walked down the
aisle to the Lohengrin wedding
march on the arm of her broth
er, Leif Henie, of Chicago. She
was preceded by Mrs. Alexander
MacArthur, wife of her business
partner, of Chicago, who was
her only attendant. Gardiner's
brother-in-law, Olney Mairs, Jr.,
was his best man.
Gardenias for the fragrant
receiving bower were flown
here from California.
Norwegian-born Miss Henie,
36, three times Olympic cham
pion figure skater, was the third
bride of sportsman Daniel Reid
Topping in 1940. They were
divorced six years later.
Gardiner, also 36, was mar
ried to Mildred Shay Murphy in
1936, and divorced six months
later. He was divorced also
from Bethany Ann (Babs) Beck
with, former model who was
his second wife, and Frances
Lattimer.
Gardiner Is currently In
charge of the aviation depart
ment of the industrial tape com
pany at New Brunswick, N. J.
The two took off in Gardiner's
private plane for an undisclosed
honeymoon spot following the
reception.

Rosenberg of Austria, London
"and Paris, wore the costume
to a Park avenue cocktail
. party after buying it on a
dare. Most of her clothes bear
the labels of Paris couturiers.

ca, the cabinet officer told a
press conference:
"My Job Is unification. My Job
Is defense. My Job is peace."
He said Russia Is "our one
possible enemy."
"Russia expected 'US to col
lapse financially," Johnson said.
. "It is as-much my Job to have a
sufficient primary fighting
force as it is to cut out waste
and extravagance."
- Describing Alaska as a poten
tial base for "retaliatory attacks
against a possible enemy and for
protection of Canada and the
United States," he said adequate
housing was needed for troops
there.

quate" and "sub - standard."

FCC Must Show

New York, Sept. 16 U.K
Three major radio networks to
day obtained a federal court or
der directing the federal com
munications commission to show
cause why it should not be re
strained from banning radio
giveaway programs.
Federal District Judge Simon
H. Rlfkind ordered the FCC to
answer by 2:30 p.m. Monday the
broadcaster's request for an in
junction against enforcement of
the FCC edict ruling giveaway
shows off the air after Oct. 1.
A temporary injunction was
asked by the National Broad
casting company, American
Broadcasting company and Co-
1 u m b i a Broadcasting system.
Their petition claimed that the
FCC order Issued Aug. IS is un
constitutional, and denied that
the giveaway shows are lotteries
as the FCC charged.
A similar injunction already
has been issued by a Chicago
Federal Court.
