The ceremony took six minutes and the phone bill was $9.50, "considerably cheaper." said the bride, "than the railroad fare from Cleveland to Waco." Eakin's witnes was requested to sign an affidavit and mail it to Waco. A health certificate, required by Texas laws, was wired to Justice Morris yesterday by Eakln. The marriage is the culmination of a romance that started at a Christmas dinner in Chilton, 14 years ago. when the bride was years old and the groom 8.

However, a speculator not far away was generally not only willing but able to sell you as many good seats as you wanted for tonight at a irterely nominal increase of 50 or 100 percent over the box-office prices. Not that the producers were in cahoots with the speculators! Oh, lordy, lordy, no! Perish the thought! They simply can't keep the bad, naughty speculators from corralling all the good seats.

Try to buy a seat for one of the season's hits at the box office! Then try a speculator! The result will convince you that they are still making hay while the sun shines.

But for them the sun is shining less and less each year, and in fewer places.
