Weddings Still Stir
Veteran Of 50.000 Of Them
; NEW YORK . (UPl I One mar
riage is par for most women. Mrs.
. Wilma Allen will chalk up, her,.1 50,
OOOth this month. c
J Even witH that record-shattering
total, she still gets dewy-eyed as an
18-yew -old when : She- hedrs the
organ break, into a wedding, .march?
i "Even' after 22 years of sweating
out weddings," she says, "I still get
ia lump in my throat" ,v, " s
Mrs. Allen, a native . of West
Salem, 111., is a bridal consultant
for the Jay Thorpe store here. '
1 She and a staff of seven, super
vise about- 3,000 wedding? annu
ally. The shop outfits the whole
wedding party, if the bride-to-be
wants It that way. But ft also pro-
vides free counseling on weddings
Jright from the time the breathless
young thing walks in looking Tor a
Jdress until she trips down the aisle
Ao say "I &o". .
Once the vows are said, Mrs.
Allen is' through. She hasno plans
for advising the lovelorn, although
she gets plenty, of requests along
;that line. '
t There was the time, diirjng. the
'war when a "service-man wrote
1 pleading, "I heard about you front
Ja buddy. Will you please do me a
! favor? Call my fiancee in Brooklyn
or at least she was my fiancee-
; and tell her how great ' you. think;
i marriage is. She's angry with me
and I'm afraid some' other guy will
move in before I get home "
$30,000 Gown
Wilma Allen has handled wed
dings for people of about every
profession, religion, political lean
ing or social standing.
She,v has gowned brides who
could afford a $30,000 outlay on a
dress; brides who could pay .only
$25.; . ' .' : ' : ,'V '
That . $30,000 number was, the
most expensive Mrs. Allen ever had
a hand in, making. It was entirely
of rose point lace and" had a five
yard train. ,
. Mrs.' Allen won t say wno wore it.
The wedding consultant said
pulling oft either a big or small
shindig is a cinch, if she just can
keep Mama out of the picture.
.' She observed: "It's not only
daughter's big day, . but Mama's,
too. And Mama manages to make
the most' of it. Of course, I under
stand Jiow mothers feel. ' I'm one
niyfolf." ' . .' V..::a;
When Mrs. Allen speaks of see
ing bride's right ; to the church,
she's not kidding. This devotion
to duty is time-consuming and also
produces its share of catastrophes,
or near-catastrophes.

laws violated.

heart softened when she explained
her hurry and he provided a siren

Mrs. Allen says that even with

Finally someone gave me a shove

Smart Girls
Too Smart To
Catch A Man
HOLLYWOOD (UP) Some of
you smart women are just too
smart to catch a man.
We have this from a smart wo
man who says she's decided men
are smarter. ' '
"I'm sick of the games women
play and the childish traps they
try to shove their men into," Mary
Kay Dodson said. "Women think
they can outwit men, but they
can't. They fail because they al
ways put them on the defensive.
They don't treat them with any
real intelligence."
Miss Dodson admits she used
to try to play games with men but
she's stopped. Now. she uses her
brains only to design costumes for
other designing women in movies
like Paramount's "Union Station".
"Most of us career women are
arrogant little vixens," she con
fessed. "I pity the man who is un
lucky enough to fall for one of us,
"The younger he gets a career
girl, the better. If she's over 25
he'd better be patient and wait
until her machine runs down a bit.
Too Dominating
' "It takes, a powerfully strong
man to keep an ambitious career
woman inside the bounds -of sen
sible, compatible living. She usu
ally wants to dominate her man
completely when business is good.
Then when business is bad she
cries bitterly that he doesn't take
care of her.
"No wonder men get sick of us."
Women don't play their own
games fairly, either, she added.
They're too emotional. They try
to play both sides. And when they
can't, they pity themselves. That's
what she says. .
Miss Dodson learned her lesson
with one husband, from whom
she's divorced. Now she says she's
down to reality.
"I'm not battling or competing
against men any more," she pro
claimed.. "From now on I'm on
their side." : '
