Clif- j during the group's March meeting, held at the Jackson hotel. Mrs. ton Daniel, 43, Miss Truman r j Keeney president, conducted the meeting and the Rev. said in a news conference late George R. V. Bolster introduced Mr. Hitchcock. The Rev. D. Kirk- Monday. She will wear a snort beige dress made in Rome by designer Micole Fontana and have only organ music. The 32-year-old daughter of former President Truman, who is frankly sentimental about true love and old acquaintances, is not superstitious about wed ding customs. She said she won't even wear "the usual something old, something new, etc.," unless somebody in the family insists. Miss Truman disclosed her fu ture wedding plans in person a day ' before she discussed her past boy friends in print in the second installment of her mem oirs, "Souvenir," appearing in Good Housekeeping magazine. Only the two families will be invited to the 4 p.m. ceremony in the Trinity Episcopal church in Independence, Mo., where her mother and father also were married, Miss Truman said. Only old and close friends will attend the reception at the Truman home afterwards, she said, and added, "Mother is running most of this anyway, so I don't know all of the details." Her two attendants will be Mrs. John E. Horton, the former Drucie Snyder, and Mrs. W. Coleman Blanton, the former Mary Shaw, both of whom are mentioned frequently in her memoirs, including references to their first love. . Miss Truman names more than a dozen of her own escorts in the White House, but she omits the name of the suitor who first proposed marriage in 1948. "Much as I liked him, he wasn't the one," she wrote, add ing that she always wanted a man who would sweep her off ber feet . . . Who will tell me what to do in no uncertain terms and see that I do it." , If the regular Episcopal wed d i n g ceremony includes the word "obey" she told reporters Monday, that is fine with her. She thinks it is "splitting hairs" to omit it.

Eight Home Colors Promote Harmony, Decorator Declares West Hartford, Conn.UJ.R) A gal's chance of living happily with her husband is greater if she also is in harmony with her house. Hawley. who has been a dec orator for 51 years, says if a red-haired wife nags hubby it may not be the fault of either. It could be because her home has red walls or furnishings Hawley has found that women with red hair have an easier- going temperament if their homes are decorated in blends of blue, gray and rose. Red is fine, on the head of a woman or on the walls of a house but put 'em both together and they clash. But a red motif is dandy for brunettes. "Brunettes like bright colors," said Hawley. "They love red and green." 4 Two Return Mrs. Virgie Garner and Agnes Ackerman returned home Sat urday night after spending a week in southern California on vacation. They spent some time in Santa Barbara, also visited ..Knott's Berry farm. Another in a series of card parties was held last week at the home of Mrs. George Bryant with Mrs. Ruth Dodge as cohost- ess.

"The Pacific north west needs all the power it can get," he declared. Questioned about the Bricker amendment, the candidate said he was opposed to it. Mr. Hitchcock concluded by saying that he was untroubled by President Eisenhower's re cent praise of Seecretary, Mc Kay, who is also a candidate for the senate, and that he did not believe the president had meant to endorse one Republican can didate over another but only to commend Mr. " McKay for his work as Secretary of the Inte rior.
