"As many had come to see the cake as to see us'' the young
couple laughed.
The .cake was a masterpiece of pastry art, and it was made
by Katherine's parents, Mr. and
Mrs. Henry 'Zderad, bakery
owners.
The 500 guests who went to
the wedding of the baker's
daughter said the four-tiered,
175-pound cake was one of the
most intricately beautiful pro
ducts ever seen in this part of
the country.

Night Vigil Reveals
Appetite Troubles
South Bend, Ind. U.R Rober
ta McCay, nine, is putting on
weight again, but there was a
time when eating was a chore
for the youngster.
Her life was just one unhappy
round of visits to the doctor's of
fice, vitamin pills and cod liver
oil.
The doctors didn't know what
was wrong and neither did her
parents Mr. and Mrs. Robert J.
McCay. Until one night Mrs. Mc
Cay, who had noticed little bald
spots on her daughter's head,
decided to keep vigil by her bed
aide for a clue.
Patiently, Mrs. McCay watch
ad, while the child slept.
Suddenly, Roberta . stirred.
She touched her head slowly,
curled a few strands of hair
about her thumb. Dut it into
her mouth and swallowed.
The next day the doctor X
rayed and found a ball of hair
In Roberta's stomach.
After the operation, an unus
ual one for humans, Roberta
gained five pounds in less than
a month.
She now wears a pair of can
vas mittens and a hairnet to bed.
Greek Civil War
Practically Over
Washington, Oct. 20 W) Sec
retary of State Acheson said to
day that the Greek government's
war with communist-led guer
rillas is practically over. Re
duction of American aid to
Greece would seem to be an
indicated step, he added.
Acheson told his news con-
The cake itself was baked the
night before the wedding, but it
took a week of intensive prepar
ation to get it ready. And it al
most took a set of blueprints to
put it together.
Zderad preoccupied himself
with making a pastry gondola,
swans, wedding bells and hun
dreds of hand-made flowers.
His wife copied the bride's
hoop-skirted white satin gown
and the bridesmaids' pastel
hued frocks for dolls dressed in
miniature replicas of the bridal
party costumes.
Courtship was the theme of
the design, with the cake placed
on a blue mirror to represent
the sea of matrimony.
Each section was decorated
in accordance with the theme
and each of the four tiers was
held up by five decorated col
umns.
The cake's ingredients includ
ed 30 pounds of flour, 18 pounds
of butter, 40 pounds of sugar,
30 ounces of baking powder, 12
ounces of salt, 300 egg whites
and 12 quarts of milk.
The icing took 25 pounds of
powdered sugar and 60 egg
whites.
It was truly a monumental
achievement and so awed the
bride that her nerve failed after
the wedding.
She couldn't eat the cake.
U. S. marine detachments
form a part of the complement
on all American battleships, air
craft carriers, heavy cruisers,
and on the latest types of light
cruisers, as well as on other
types of combat ships.
