Bing Crosby, Bride Honeymooning at Palm Springs Home Palm Springs, Calif. (W The honeymoon of Bing Crosby and his 23-year-old bride at Crosby's $250,000 home near this desert spa will be a brief one. They both have to go back to work Monday. The 53-year-old crooner, who parlayed a crooning baritone and an easy manner into fame and fortune, was wed in Las Vegas, Nev., Thursday to brown-eyed actress Kathy Grant, a Texas born beauty one year younger than Crosby's oldest son. Brand New House Asked if she intended to work now, the actress said that that decision was up to her husband. Crosby smiled, and said that he wanted her to fulfill herself completely. Miss Grant had never seen the home she was to share with Crosby when she stepped off the plane at the local airport after a flight from Nevada. As she stood aside and waited as friends loudly greeted Crosby, a photographer yelled: "Would you move forward, Mrs. Cros by?" "Say that again," the petite actress smiled.' Surprised "Holly wood The couple's marriage came as a surprise to friends and rela tives, and it was a hurried de cision for themselves, too. "We started seeing each other again about 10 days ago," Crosby said. "I realized I wasn't happy away from her and she felt the same way. But it wasn't until Wednesday afternoon that I could sell her on the idea of getting married." "That's when I started mak ing arrangements. I didn't even have time to pick out a fancy wedding ring, so I got a plain gold one." The pretty brunette met Cros by in 1953 while working on "White Christmas." Their casual acquaintance grew more inti mate and soon they were seeing each other regularly. 4 Absolutely n u o New Ford Gar o New Ford Truck With the purchase of any o A--I Used Car '55 or '56 o A-l Used Truck '55 or '5S NO REASONABLE OFFER REFUSED ON ANY NEW OR USED CAR OR TRUCK IN STOCK ft 400 Gallons U With Each New if k Ford CarVff free 300 Gallons W 11 With Each Used if X or '56f DOWNTOWN USED CAR LOT OPEN TILL 9 p.m. F R E if Jiffy Canopy Top A If 300 Gallons Gas IT It With Each New 1 iFREE if 300 Gallons II With Each Used H VI '55 or '56 11 Pickup!

The chamber executive urged caution in entering into proposi tions of this type, and suggested consultation with the Chamber of Commerce. Points which should be con sidered, McNeil said, include: Don McNeil, manager of the ; ing machines, food - warming Jackson County Chamber of Commerce, warned residents of Jackson county today about a small group of unscrupulous pro moters who attempt to reach gullible investors through inno cent - appearing business oppor tunity ads. The chamber manager empha sized that only a small propor tion of business opportunity ad vertising offered to newspapers is of a questionable nature, and the vigilance of classified adver tising departments further re duces the proportion of such ad vertisements that ever find their way into print. "These columns have become one of the most popular features of the modern newspaper," Mc Neil stated. 'Thousands of suc cessful business ventures have had their inceptions in a small classified business opportunity advertisement." Important Facts But the chamber executive stated that, in order to assure full satisfaction, prospective in vestors should be aware of cer tain important facts which will help them to guard against offers of dubious merit. "For example," he said, "the experience of Better Business Bureaus and Chambers of Com merce throughout the country in dicates that certain business op portunity offers involving the purchase by the investor of vend- Negligent Homicide Guilty Plea Filed John Day (IP) Jeffrey I.
