Refusal To Wed Intoxicated Couples Starts Controversy 3 r ii AN AMERICAN FAVORITE IN OREGON ""lOUnBOH s $395 $250 43 QT. PINT . A I 1 iamb Canberra, Australia (U.R) The Rector of St. Paul's Angli can Church has warned his par ishioners that in future he will refuse to marry couples who ar rive at his church "fortified by Intoxicating liquor." The rector, the Rev. R. Bor der, has touched off a lively con troversy with his warning. In the latest Issue of the par ish magazine, Dr. Border said most couples came to the mar riage ceremony "In a fitting and seemly, attitude." "However," he added, "now and then there come couples who think they need to be fort ified." Border said, "I will have no regard whatsoever to the Incon venience of those who attend, or to the cost to which the par ties or their parents have been put. Considers It Insult "Those who come to the church to receive God's blessing upon their marriage while under the influence of drink in any de gree, are offering an insult to Almighty God which will not be tolerated. "Further, any guest who ar rives at the church intoxicated, will be asked to leave, and the marriage will not take place until he or she has left. Explaining his warning, Bor der said that several times last year one of the wedding parties or guests had arrived at the church intoxicated. "I have performed the wed dings so far, although I felt that I should have stopped them, he said. "But I have now issued a. warning that in future I will not go on with the service In such circumstances." "I am not a teetotaler," Bor der added. "I am concerned bout the demeanor of the parties at a sacrament In Sydney, the Rev. Gordon Powell, of St. Stephen's, said "It is, of course, in shockingly bad taste to arrive in church in an intoxicated condition. "However, there may be some people who cannot manage to get married without a little 'dutch courage.' To refuse to marry them would be a drastic step which I should not be prepared to take for such a comparatively trivial offense, providing the parties were not in any way affected by strong drink." The acting New South Wales deputy registrar, R. W. Smith, who performs many civil mar riages, said he could not rem ember any couple being refus ed on the grounds that they were "under the weather." "It Is understandable that the timid bridegrooms may Indulge in a little something to steady their nerves beforehand," Smith said. "Of course, we would not marry anyone who arrived roll ing drunk for the ceremony." A spokesman for the Roman Catholic Church said it was a matter for the individual priest performing the ceremony. "The important consideration is whether the parties under stand the solemnity of the cere mony," the spokesman s aid. Pyrethrum Found Effective on Flies Bergeley, Calif. (U.R) Scientists here believe they fi nally may have the number of the housefly. Studies at the University of uaiiiornia, snow the housefly has no serious resistance to pyr ethrum. Pyrethrum is not the most effecient of insecticides but it most effective when it hits flies. F. P. W. Wlnteringham, visit ing English scientist, is experi menting with the use of radio active synthetic pyrethrum in -tracing its killing action in the houseflies. When the entomologists learn how this material works, they hope to copy the killing action of it and make powerful new insecticides to which houseflies can't build up resistance as they have to other promising chemi cials in the past.

Built in 1755-58, the brick mansion overlooking the Poto mac River was a favorite meet ing place for George Washing ton, Patrick Henry, and other historical figures who led our struggle for independence. In 1933 the owner, Louis Her- tie of Chicago, deeded Gunston Hall to the State of Virginia in permanent custody of the Na tional Society of Colonial Dames. The land and building were to be administered by a board of regents selected from the national society. Years Take Toll The years began to take their toll of the red-brick building and its surrounding landscape Shortly after Hartle's death in 1949, restoration of the planta tion began. The funds for repairing the historic site, some $230,000, were accumulated from within the membership of the Colonial Dames. The work was placed under the direction of Flske Kimball, research consultant of the Philadelphia Museum and his assistant, Erlung H, Peterson. The building was restored as closely as possible to its original construction, structurally and materially. Gunston Hall s original statu arv marble mantle, Mason fam ily portraits, and me am or Rights table on which Mason wrote his famous document, can now be found amidst their orig inal surroundings. All of the fur niture in the mansion is of the 18th century period and some of it actually belonged to George Mason. Garden Restored Even the garden has been re stored by the Garden club of Virginia under the direction of Alden Homiklns, landscape ar chitect of Williamsburg. The only modern improve ment in the Gunston Hall struc ture is a new heating plant. All Dlumblng has been removed and electrical wiring remains only in the brick masonry of the fire- Dlace.
