Rockefellers to Attend
Coming Wedding of Son
(Editor's Note: In less than
three weeks a young woman
from a tiny Norwegian town
will marry one of America's
most eligible bachelors. What
kind of a girl is she? What
has been her family and edu
cational background? In the
following dispatch, United
Press International gives you
a brief life story of the girl
soon to become a member of
one of the richest families in
America.)
Kristiansand, Norway-(DP&-
Pretty Anne Marie Rasmussen
faces a lot of problems Cin
derella never dreamed of
when, on August 22, she be
comes a Rockefeller.
She already has had a taste
of one problem - the publicity
that accompanied her romance
with Steven Rockefeller, and,
by her own admission, she
was "scared stiff." More prob
lems are on the way when
Anne Marie leaves her home
in the quiet town of Sogne
to set up housekeeping in a
New York apartment.
But friends will tell you
she is" a stable, well adjusted
girl, with old-fashioned -
though by no means outdated
values, and she is quite ready
to take on the challenge.
Anne Marie was born 21
years ago on the island of
Boroeya outside Tvedestrand,
where her father had a house
hold goods store. She moved
to Sogne, on the southern tip
of Norway, after World War
H.
Anne Marie loves good
music and art.
"You can keep your rock
and roll as far as I -am con
cerned," she says. "When I
dance, it is in the old fash
ioned way."
Some reports would have
it that Anne Marie grew up
in an overly strict, Lutheran
home, dimming her capacity
for a good time. But Anne
Marie denies this. "I like to
have fun and I think I am a
natural Norwegian girl," she
says. She has the sparkling
blue eyes and blonde hair to
prove her point.
Anne Marie Has had com
paratively little formal edu
cation. She attended a rural
elementary school for seven
years. In 1956 she went to
New York to' study English,
spending two years at a sup
plementary school.
Her quest for work to pay
for her studies took her into
the Rockefeller home as a
maid. There she harl her first
introduction to Steven. She
also worked in a department
store and an insurance com
pany, returning home last
April.
"She did not know mucn,
But she took special lessons
each night and was ratner
good at her studies." .
Anne Marie realizes mat
drastic changes face ner m
marriage to a Rockefeller, but
she doesn't intend to let her
new life affect her sense of
values of her appreciation of
where she got them.
"Whatever happens and
whatever my station in me
will be, I will never forget
the heritage I bring with me
from my father and mother,"
she said.

Kristiansand, Norway -flJPD-Steven
Rockefeller expects his
"whole family" to attend his
August 22 wedding to pretty
Anne Marie Rasmussen. the
Rockefellers' former maid.
That included the prospec
tive father-in-law, New York
Gov. Nelson Rockefeller, who
said he and his wife were "de
lighted" with the match. The
governor, who is attending a
governors' conference in San
Juan, Puerto Rico, smilingly
told a news conference he soon
might be making a non-political
trip to Scandinavia.
In announcing their engage
ment, Steven, 23, and Anne
Marie, 21, said they planned
to be married in the rustic,
wooden church in Miss Ras-
mussens nearby hometown of
Sogne, take a brief honey
moon, and then set up house
keeping in a New York apart
ment.
Steven said Sunday he ex
pects the whole Rockefeller
family to be on hand, for his
wedding if it is at all possible.
Steven said that after the
marriage and honeymoon he
plans to go into "the family
business" which gave Lim a
rather wide choice of job pos
sibilities.
Although Anne Marie once
worked as a maid in the
Rockefeller home while visit
ing the United States to learn
English, her marriage to a
Rockefeller did not exactly de
pict a rags-to-riches romance.
Her father, now retired, was a
well-to-do grocer in Sogne.
However, the marriage does
mean a drastic change for
blonde-haired, blue-eyed Anne
Marie. It will take her from
Norway to the United States,
and from one of the world's
smaller communities to its
largest.
Anne Marie said she is
aware that her life will be
changed when she marries
Steven, but she added, "what
ever happens and whatever
my station in life will be, I
will never forget the heritage
I bring with me from my
father and mother."
The couple said they would
start off simply, they will
have no maid and "Anne
Marie shall do all the house
work and cooking herself."
Anne Marie, a quiet girl,
with little formal education,
comes from a religious, Luth
eran family. But she describ
ed herself as a "natural Nor
wegian girl, and I like to have
fun."
The couple announced their
engagement at a press con
ference at the Ernst Hotel in
Kristiansand then e a r e s t
large city to Sogne to put
an end to days of intense
speculation about the ro
mance.

Raisin Bread Good
For Summer Menus
To perk up summer menus,
serve raisin bread. It makes
wonderful French toast, es
pecially when ou flavor the
egg and milk mixture with
a little freshly grated orange
rind. And raisin bread makes
delightful sandwiches. Have
you tried raisin bread spread
with cream cheese and
topped with orange marma
lade? Or buttered raisin
bread toast with peanut but
ter and crisp bacon? Or have
you tasted raisin bread spread
with mustard-flavored 'may
onnaise and thin slices of
baked ham? For between
meal snacks, remember plain
raisin bread is very satisfy
ing. Simply cut it into strips
and spread with butter. Good
with a glass of cold milk or
iced tea.

Chain Store
Ordering
Paris Styles
By PAT HERMAN
United Press International
Paris - (CFD - Fall fashions
introduced by the big Paris
designers last week will be
available on department store
racks for $8.95 and up within
six weeks, an American buy
er said today.
Rita Perna, fashion coor
dinator for a big U. S. mail
order-department store chain,
Montgomery Ward, said the
new Paris styles will be mass
produced as quickly as they
are custom - copied for $100
and up.
In both cases, the dresses
will be available about mid
September. The buying team headed by
Miss Perna has just shopped
the world's fanciest dress
shows for American women
who can afford neither trips
to Paris nor Paris originals.
Most American department
store buyers, who have just
sized up the Paris fall and
winter collections, will take
home originals costing $600
and up to be copied line for
line.
This means that the Ameri
can woman will have by mid
September a fairly faithful
adaptation of the originals
which will be shipped from
Paris at the end of August.
The prices of these line for
line adaptations run into hun
dreds of dollars by the time
they appear in the better
dress departments, of retail
stores.
My mid - September, Miss
Perna said, retail stores will
Paris coats for less than $100,
suits for less than $50 and
dresses starting at $8.95.
"We don't like line for line
copies, because at the start a
line is exaggerated," said
Miss Perna, explaining that
exact copying was something
that her outfit left to the
higher prices stores.

New Color
Can Cool
Kitchen
United Press International
Chicago -(UPD- A new color
scheme can make the kitchen
seem degrees cooler on hot
summer days.
Only about S10 worth of
paint is needed to cover the
average room. Use an odor
less semi-gloss or gloss paint.
This kind dries quickly, will
not interfere with cooking
when first applied, and will
retain its fresh look after
countless washings.
Before painting, wash dirt
and grease from the walls
and woodwork. Remove loose
or cracked paint with a wire
brush or sandpaper, and sand
down any glossy surfaces so
the new coat will adhere bet
ter.
Experts agree that the cool
est colors include most shades
of green, turquoise, light
blue, gray -blue and green-
blue. If warm colors are es
sential to your happiness, add
them by means of the cur
tains or as accents in the
form of plates, pictures or
bric-a-brac.
Good Colors
These are suggested as
pleasant combinations for a
cool kitchen:
-Ice-blue walls; chartreuse
floor; medium-blue counters;
white or blue cabinets; char
treuse curtains; orange ac
cents.
-Sea - green walls; deep
green floor; champagne
counters and cabinets; deep
green, yellow and white cur
tains; raspberry red accents.
-Pale turquoise walls; deep
turquoise floor; natural wood
or ivory cabinets; pale melon
counters; melon and ivory
curtains.
-Soft green walls; medium
green, yellow and white spat
ter floor; soft green cabinets;
deep blue counters; green,
blue and yellow curtains;
yellow accents.
Float a bit of grated orange
or lemon rind on top of
soups.
Point
Decorator Says
More Trouble
By MARY PRIME
United Press International
New Yor:-, Aug. 2 - (UPD -When
it comes to decorating
a home, the average Ameri
can woman is fussier than
kings and diplomats.
Just ask Frel Gerstel, an
interior decorator who once
counted among his clients
eight royal families of Eu
rope and the Middle East, two
Czechoslovakian preside n t s,
and 56 foreign embassies in
Prague. Gerstel owned the
largest frnifure factory in
Europe and deigned for the
cream of international soci
ety until he was forced to
flee Czechoslovakia in 1939.
How did Gerstel find his
blue-blooded clients to deal
with? ,
"Easier, much easier," he
said in an interview in his
New York office. He general
ly was given a frc hand
when decorating embassies
and palaces.
For example, he was com
missioned to re-model the
Japanese embassy. His price
was high, but the Japanese
ambassador sent a check
without looking at one sketch
or color scheme or consulting
his wife.
"Then nobody asked a
price or had a budget. But I
have learned since to work
on budgets very carefully,"
Gerstel laughed.
In dealing ,with royalty
the decorator was not faced
with a lot of do's and don'ts.
There was onlv one rule:
Everything he purchased or
designed had to be beauti
ful for 200 years.
A castle or palace meaat
as much to kings and queens
as a home to commoners, and
they wanted personal
touches, he said. But no
queen considered re-decorating
a traumatic experience.
The accepted decor was
usually 18th century French.
If new carpets or draperies
were needed, Gerstel was
asked to get the same pat
tern because the clients were
"happy", with them. But
American women want a
complete change e.jry time
pen Tonight!
SHOP TILL 9
Phones NO 4 -
Americans
than Royalty
they re-decoute.
Tastes varied from simple
to luxurious. Gerstel recalled
doing a red damask recep
tion room for King Alexander
of Yugoslavia and oriental
bedrooms and modern bathi
for the King of Albania. The
Albanian queen had been In
the United States, and want
ed an indoor swimming pool
and a room furnished aj an
American bar.
Unfortunately, the royal
Albanians were forced to
abandon their palace to the
Italians, so the job never
was completed and Gerstel
never received payment.
Kings are delightful cus
tomers, but it's difficult to
get paid," the decorator said.
They felt hey were doing
us an honor. They had no
business - -nse."
Gerstel's most expensive
job was a $3-million bani
(now the equivalent of $12
million, he said). It looked
like a palace and contained a
staircase modeled after one in
Chesterfield House, then
owned by British Princess
Mary. Lord C" esterfield had
purchased the staircase in
1760. The bank also had
panelings which took 68
woodcarvers five years to
complete.
A hearty man who has been
in business since 1919, Ger
stel is divorced and has three
sons and one grandchild.
After fleeing his country, he
came to the United States
with "no money, but my
business in my head." In 1944
he opened his own office. To
day he does interiors for com
mercial firms and institutions
and is chief consultant on
interiors for a firm doing mis
sile research. . &
In Zzechoslovakia Gerstel'
lived in a castle with 19 serv
ants. "It was fun sitting on the
right hand of queens, but it
doesn't do me any good to be
nostalgic about that life in a
castle," he said. "I was sit
ting on a lonely island. I had
no friends. Here in my office
we are all friends, we have
our sandwich together
