Afghanistans Here
For Police School
Nine Royal Government of Af
ghanistan officers are attending
the 19th Texas Municipal Police
School which is being held at A&M
throughout May.
Coming to this country through
the international cooperation pro
gram of the State Department, the
men are taking the training as
part of their studies of United
States law enforcement. Conduc
ted by the Engineering Extension
Service, the four-week course of
fers training in the latest crime
fighting techniques and law en
forcement practices used in Texas.
Afghanistan is a country of 14
million population bordered by
Russia, Iran and Pakistan. It is
a “neutral” constitutional monar
chy, and its boundaries are com
parable to the size of Texas.
Dried apricots, after they have
been soaked and drained, are de
licious cut into slivers and added to
a quick bread.

Smart Brides
Study Correct
WeddingDress
By DOROTHY ROE
Associated Press Women’s Editor
Happy is the bride who checks up
in advance on correct wedding at
tire and greets the big day calm,
collected and secure in the knowl
edge that her costume is perfect
from gloves to veil.
At a formal wedding, either day
time or evening, the bride wears a
floor-length gown with train and
a floor-length or finger-tip-length
veil. If the ceremony is an elabor
ate church wedding, the gown
should have a full cathedral train
and should be worn with a full-
length veil. If it is a smaller, more
simple chapel wedding, a short
chapel train and finger-tip veil are
correct. Accessories include either
prayer book or bouquet, white slip
pers (or a matching pastel if the
wedding gown is tinted) and long
white kid gloves, reaching above
the elbow.
The bridegroom wears cutaway
or club jacket, gray striped trous
ers and fawn flannel or white lin
en waistcoat for a formal day-time
wedding, white tie and tails for an
evening ceremony. With the latter
outfit white kid one-button gloves
are a must.
Things are simpler for an infor
mal at-home wedding. The bride
may wear an ankle-length wed
ding gown without a train, a short
veil and short white gloves. The
bridegroom may wear a dark bus
iness suit for a fall or winter wed
ding, or dark coat and white trous
ers for a summer occasion. The
white jacket and dark flannel
trousers also are correct for sum
mer wear.
This year the bride gets a break
—wedding gloves now come three
to a set, so that after the ring
finger of the left glove has been
slit for wear during the ceremony,
there’s a spare to make up the pair
for later wear.
