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. Theta Rho
girls were in session at the Elks
temple, and presented a program
for the assemblage.
All officers of the Oregon Re
bekah assembly were present,
as well as officers of the canton
and auxiliary.

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.
