Shagay Share—Gene Quigley
United in Morning Ceremony
by MARY LEE THOMPSON
Do you sometimes get the
feeling there’s nobody around
these days but 19-year-olds?
Does it seem as though adver­
tising only plays up to the
young, and politicians are out
to win the youth vote, and
even music and art are cre­
ated only for the teen set?
Well, if you’re around the
40 mark, take heart. Youth is
not going to take over our so­
ciety. Richard M. Scammon,
author of "The Real Major­
ity” and an expert on Ameri­
can voting habits, refutes the
claim that the balance of po­
litical power has been dras­
tically altered by the young.
“The average age of the
American voter in 1972 will
be around 44 or 45,” he says.
"If anyone tells you that 25
million potential electors are
under 25, which is true, you
can reply that more than 50
million are over 50, which is
also true.”
On June 8 at 11:00 a.m., the
First Christian Church of Buhl,
Idaho was the scene of the wed­
ding of Shagay Share to Gene
Quigley. The double ring cere­
mony was performed by the Re­
verend Harrie S. Young.
Parents of the couple are Mr.
and Mrs. Don Share of Adrian,
Oregon and now of Filer, Idaho
and Mr. and Mrs. Lawrence
Quigley of Buhl, Idaho.
The bride wore a white lace
long sleeved finger-tip gown
with flowing train. Her veil was
of white organza with lace trim.
She carried a nosegay of white
daisies with babies breath and
streamers of gold.
Matron of honor was Mrs.
Tim Phillips of Nyssa.
She
wore a pink long-sleeved dress
and carried a miniature nosegay
of white daisies and babies
breath.
Best man was LarryQuigley,
brother of the groom. Both the
groom and best man were at­
tired in tuxedos.
The bride’s mother was at­
tired in a short sleeved navy
blue knit dress and wore beige
accessories. The groom’s mo­
ther wore a purple long sleeved
dress of crepe and had pink
accessories.
The reception was held at a
local restaurant following the
ceremony, with a luncheon be­
ing served to those attending the
wedding.
For her going-away outfit the
bride chose an orange velvet
pant
suit with white acces­
sories.
The newly married couple are
presently living in Filer, Idaho.
He
is employed by Quigley
Plumbing and Heating in Buhl.
Special guests were the bri­
de’s grandparents, Mr.
and
Mrs. Charles Share and Mr. and
Mrs. Ira Price, Sr. of rural
Nyssa.
Other
out-of-town
guests were the bride’s aunt,
Mrs. Feme Groves of Parma
and Mr. and Mrs. Glenn Ward
and Stuart of Adrian.
Not only are there twice as
many people over 50 as there
are under 25 in the voting
group, but people in the mid­
dle and older years tend to
turn out in greater numbers
at the polls. Some 70 to 75 per­
cent vote at the age of 50,
where only 45 to 50 percent
turn out at age 21. So, middle­
age Americans have substan­
tial clout.
The real question, however,
is not whether you have po­
litical power but how you use

rate the basement rooms later

mented for the good work they
are doing and the beautiful home
