Cor. 6th & Central Phone SP 2-6253 Princess Margaret won't be interested In the slightest, but the society editor of The Mail Tribune and Pal Peg approve heartily of her wedding gown. After writing thous ands of wedding stories, attending scores of weddings and publishing hundreds of pictures of brides, we've decided that we like best the simple gowns which depend upon fine material, style and detail for their elegance. One story referred to the gown as "monastic" in its simplicity, and Friday night as we listened and watched the program on television which gave the wedding details, we noticed that the commentator said "there is absolutely no trimming on Margaret's gown." The society gals also approved of the music. Purcell's "Trumpet Tune and A:rs" is much more impressive and suitable for a wedding march than the traditional music so often played in this country and which is frowned on by many musicians and clergymen. Pal Peg was one of the few women we know who pre dicted from the moment the engagement was announced that Princess Margaret would choose young girls for her attendants. Chief among the reasons must have been that the Princess is barely five feet tall in her nylons, and that the bridcRioum is only a few inches taller. Most other adults tower over the couple. United Press International said the little bridesmaids, Princess Anne and seven other young girls of special rela tion or interest, wore identical dresses that were replicas of Margaret's first evening gown, a favorite of her father, the late King George VI. The dresses were plain white silk organza with little girl bodices, short sleeves and collars tied with 'blue ribbon bows. Panels of embroidery slotted with pale blue ribbons fell from narrow waistlines to the ground. Around the hem of each was a band of graduated pintucking bordered with three rows of the embroidery. Their bouquets were lily of the valley. We decided that brides in this country could well take note of other details of the wedding of the Princess to An thony Armstrong-Jones. One does not have to be a princess to be dignified, solemn and composed at a wedding. At some weddings in this country the ceremony is followed by a long fervent kiss at the altar, something which embarrasses many guests. Then the couple and attendants race down the aisle in an unseemly manner. This viewer especially enjoyed the leisurely and graceful manner in which Princess Margaret and her husband left the church. Of course, women of the royal house of Windsor have much training in entering and leaving vehicles of all sorts, but it must have been something of a trick for the bride to get in and out of the beau t fu 1 little glass coach and manage the billowing skirt, train and floating veil. Women and men who enjoyed seeing the wedding pic tures, should be grateful that the British royal family did not object to cameras and recorders being installed in West minister abbey. Potpourri personally enjoyed the televised program very much, and wished we could have published more of the 50 or 60 pictures of the event which came in on the telephoto wire here. We would have liked to see close tips of the little brides maids, and one of Prince Charles with his lace ruffled shirt and kilt. But for the unusually large number of local pic tures to be published this week end, we would have used one which shows the Prince talking with Queen Ingrid of Denmark. - Thousands of words have been written describing Prin cess Margaret s wedding gown but not a word about the gowns worn at the wedding by the Queen Mother and Queen Elizabeth. The society gals were interested to note that these gowns were mentioned after the more important news items were released. . The bride's mother wore a full length dress said to be of white gold lace. With it she had a white and gold stole bordered with pale cream diadem mink. The queen's dress was in turquoise faille and lace with matching short jacket. A back panel in the skirt was also "WfJlTf . r-rv ' tr-3. a -Vo( , ' K V u I V r v f :v i Vv " 3 T jf rnnttimg iff """Uls Princess Margaret, Husband On Dream Cruise Honeymoon Br ROBERT MU9EL tloiltd Prtu Inlernilional L o n d o n ITU The royal VAt-jh Brittanla ii.imins cross the Atlantic carrying i dinR- newlywod Pnncecs Ma''Kdrei and Antony Armstrong Jones on a five to six week dream cruise to a Canbbian "disti nation unknown."

Planes Witch Yacht Planes of the British Air Force's coastal command soared high above the yacht Saturday, aiding Vice Adm. Peter Dawnay by keeping a radar check on his course precaution that will be ob served along nearly half of the 4,000-mile route to the Caribbean. When the Britannia headed down the Thames River from London Friday, Margaret could be seen on the bridge brushing confetti and rose petals from her husband's shoulders. The newlyweds dined Fri day night in the seclusion of their suite aboard the Britan nia. Dawnay postponed the usual formal dinner with the yacht's officers at the Arm strong Joneses request. London gave the happy couple a fantastic sendoff.

The voluminous skirt was formed of three lay ers of organta cut into 12 panel sections which were shaped at the waistline and spread out into fullness at the hem. Each panel was joined with fine piping and sim ilar piping bordered the hem of the skirt which flowed out into a sweeping train at the back. Her bridal bouquet was of white orchids. (UP!

The Queen Mother had a medallion and pendant diamond necklace and drop earrings. Reporters attending the gala event also commented on how solemn Queen Elizabeth appeared during the wedding. Reasons given ranged from "maybe she didn't feel well' to the fact that as sovereign she must not cry in public. Viewers of the wedding ceremony could easily see the cascade bouquet of orchids Princess Margaret carried. Few realized that in the bouquet was a sprig of myrtle, put there by the Queen Mother. It had been taken from the myrtle bush planted after her own wedding 37 years ago to the late King George Vi.-O.S. Cpsn monday I Friday 'Til 9 P.M. Hi-Rise Girdle fits 4-ln.
