TWO MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE Tuesday, June 21, 1955 Sarr Francisco Father Plans And Runs Daughter's Wedding By NORMAN RITTER United Press Correspondent Oakland, Calif. U.RJ The father of the bride usually pays the wedding bills, but rarely does he plan the nuptial pro ceedings. With a fine disregard for con vention, Carl A.. Rietz, professor of international cooking at Oak land's Mills College for Women took over this usually feminine province and was applauded for his efforts. Mr. Rietz planned every de tail of his daughter's wedding State President Visits Rebekahs; Receives Degree Mrs. Edna Bradley, Clatskanie president of the Oregon Rebekah assembly, paid-an official visit to Olive Rebekah lodge last Thursday after having attended the district convention in Gold Hill Wednesday. The president addressed the gathering, explaining her plans for the coming year. She was in troduced by Mrs. Lewis Thomp son, Mrs. A. H. Gregory and Mrs. Dollie Love, and was pre sented a gift of money, the pres entation being made by the vice grand, Mrs. J. D. Brummond, Mrs. O. S. Walden and Mrs. Homer Vmzant. A program was presented. Misses Oveta Walden and Lynn Miler gave musical selections and little Diana Vinzant gave tap dance numbers. Mrs. John Small gave a reading. Mrs. Vinzant was chairman of the refreshment committee and was assisted by Mrs. John Dan iels, Mrs. Riley Applegate, Mr. and Mrs. E. W. Pease, Mrs. Inez Lewis and Henry Benton. Mrs. W. H. Dyer had deco rated the hall with blue birds and butterflies, and baskets of flowers. The dining tables were decorated with figurines of Hebrew women, including that of Rebekah, and Mrs. Dyer pre sented these to Mrs. Bradley. Members of the FL girls sent a basket of fruit to Mrs. Brad ley's hotel room and Mrs. Frank Chapman, noble grand, sent a bouquet of roses. Another guest for the evening was Col. W. H. Dyer of Siskiyou canton. Patriarchs Militant. Friday night several members of Olive Rebekah lodge drove to Klamath Falls to see Mrs. James Fleming of this city receive the degree of chivalry.

Smart TV Square II ceremony, recreating ancient rites forgotten since Biblical times. It was only logical that he should. Mrs. Rietz, president of the Rietz - Manufacturing com pany, in Santa Rosa. Calif., is an authority on eating customs of man through the ages. His daughter's wedding in San Francisco's Grace Cathedral, high atop Nob Hill, was tradi tional. It was when the guests trooped down the hill to the Sheraton Palace hotel that they found the radical departure from the usual cake and cham pagne. Mr. Rietz's daughter, Sandra, and her husband approached a banquet table laden as no other in the last 2,000 years. It was illuminated by a pair of earth ernware lamps dating back to the pre-Christian era. To seal their vows, the bride groom handed his bride a piece of unleavened bread dipped in honey. Then he cut the first piece of a four-foot-high cere monial cake of wheat and honey shaped like a bee hive. A pottery vessel, vintage 100 B.C., held copious quantities of wine of much later vintage. The reception was the natural development of Mr. Rietz's long time study of the food habits of man. One of this country's leading engineers in the food machinery industry, he has acquired an ex haustive store of global knowl edge on the history of food. His college course covers the food habits of the aboriginal man, the primitive man, how customs spread from South Af rica, the Orient, Egypt and Palestine, on through North Af rica, Turkey, Greece, Southern, Central and Northern Europe, France, the British Isles, Mex ico, and North America. Mr. Rietz believes a course of flhis type actually can do much to promote international good will by presenting a more per sonal and realistic view of other nations and their problems.
