The bridal business has become big business and manufacturers hear a cash register - jingle throughout the wedding march. The research department of Retailing Daily estimated that spending for the bride averages $4,500,000,000 a year.

June Weddings Popular June was the peak month, fol lowed closely by August and September. Retailing Daily did not try to estimate how the total spending is doled out. But other organiza tions have. "We figure each bride means about $3,000 in sales," said Mrs. Dorothy Cavanaugh, who as head of the bridal department at Macy's each year helps outfit 10,000 brides. "But only a small part of that is on the gown alone . . . she spends from $150 to $250 on it." . Mrs. Cavanaugh also noted two other trends. "Brides are younger, on the average, each year," she said. "And the formal wedding is making a comeback. Modern Bride magazine re cently hired a research organiza tion to make a comprehensive study of bridal spending and came up with these findings: Trousseau Runs S243 . By the end of eight' weeks of marriage, the newly-weds are responsible for the concentrated purchase of $3,224 in merchan dise and services from honey moon to home furnishings. The cost of trousseau runs about $243; cost of the wedding dress alone averages $96; cost of bridesmaids' gowns, each $32. The study showed the bride groom spends an average of S399 for the engagement ring; $97 is spent on the wedding ring. The magazine estimated cost of the wedding ceremony and re ception at $575. Cost of the honeymoon averaged" $361,'; or 27 per cent more than the couple had expected to shell out. Its study also showed today's bride holds a job and plans to continue working after the wed ding. .

The home, as seen by Herman F.

A "vending machine" which will heat and automatically serve specially - packaged fresh and frozen foods at the appointed hour; when away from home, the housewife will be able to change the menu or meal time by telephone.

Architect Says School Design Affects Youth New York U.R) One lead ing architect says a properly de signed school can reduce juven ile delinquency. Lawrence Perkins of Chicago believes the architectural de sign of a building, both inside and out, has such powerful ef fect on children that it can cut vandalism and truancy. Perkins, who has designed more than 300 elementary and high schools, said that it is easy for children to push and shove in a hallway with dim lights, few windows, and dark depress ing paint. The atmosphere fos ters haste, carelessness, tension and even fighting. But, he added, sunny stair ways and halls make students more relaxed, friendlier. Per kins, author of a new book call ed "Work Place for Learning," uses glass walls, plenty of light and' interesting views in - his classroom designs. Last year, a panel of archi tects voted his Crow Island school, in Winnetka, 111., the most significant educational structure built in the last cen tury. - ;.. Perkins' newest project also is significant. It will be a public school in Harlem, the first' in j any large city to provide the view windows ana open-air ae- .sign of rural and suburban schools. .. v The Harlem school will-: be. built mostly of glass. mrz. Perkins said that instead: of "asking for trouble" with' such construction, he believes the school will be a source of pride to students and community....:..'.
