Parents have their hands full
remembering all the things
needed for a child beginning
school for the first time. But
one item they should put on
their list is a birth certificate.
This word of advice comes
from W. D. Carroll, state re-
gistrar, whose vital statistics
staff at the Texas State De-
partment of Health is respon-
sible for handling the flood of
requests for birth certificates
for children entering school for
the first time this September.
Many parents tend to put off
requesting copies of their
youngsters’ birth record until
the last moment, resulting in a
heavy work overload.
The vital statistics staff, de-
spite long hours of night and
weekend work, can process just
so many requests before school
begins.
More than 270,000 children
are expected to enter elemen-
tary schools of Texas for the
first time this fall. The estim-
ate is based on calculations
made by the Texas Education
Agency.
A good many parents, some
of whom may have waited too
long in past years, have al-
ready requested and received
birth records on this year’s new
scholars, but tens of thousands
of additional records will have
to be processed between now
and the first time that first
school bell rings in September.
More than one youngster has
been forced to postpone his first
days at school simply because
his parents couldn’t produce
proof of his age when it came
time to Register for him.
Carroll’s advice to parents:
“Send in your request today to
the local registrar, county
clerk, or the State Department
of Health.”
All you have to do is give
the child’s name, date and place
of birth, the mother’s maiden
name, and the name of the fa-
ther. This information, with the
necessary fee should be ad-
dressed to the local registrar,
county clerk, or to the State
Department of Health, Section
on Records and Statistics, 410
East 5th Street, Austin, Texas.
Something else: Be prepared
to show school officials a record
of “shots” your youngster has
had. Depending on local school
board regulations, proof of im-
munizations against smallpox,
whooping cough, diphtheria,
and other diseases may be re-
quired.
Miscellaneous

Miss Dorothy Picha
Complimented With
Bridal Shower
Miss Dorothy Picha, bride-
elect of Eugene Patek, was com-
plimented with a bridal show-
er Saturday, June 1 between the
hours of 8:00 and 10:00 p.m. in
the parish gym.
An orchid and white color
theme prevailed in all the ap-
pointments of this lovely affair.
To the strains of Mendel-
ssohn’s Wedding March played
by Mrs. Alfred Brosch, the hon-
oree, lovely in an orchid sheath
dress with white carnation cor-
sage, entered with her little
niece, Cheryl Jean Picha, of
Pasadena. They were accom-
panied by the mothers, Mrs.
Frank Picha in blue, and Mrs.
Jerome Patek, in a tan figured
frock with which they wore
white carnation corsages. The
honoree’s grandmother, Mrs.
Julia Pitts of Pasadena, wore a
black and white suit and a
white carnation corsage.
Mrs. Alfred Brosch welcomed
the guests and the following
program was enjoyed. A quar-
tet consisting of Rosalie, Doro-
thy and Anna Marie Patek and
Betty Jean Kocian sang, “We’ll
Build A Stairway To The
Stars,” accompanied by Rosalie
Patek at the piano; piano duet,
“Melody of Love,” by Rosalie
and Anna Marie Patek; “Get-
ting Married,” a reading by
Linda Sue Hajek; a tap dance
number, “In San Francisco,” by
Darlene Grossmann and Linda
Kuester of Yoakum; “At The
Spring Waltz” and “Time
Changes Everything,” accor-
dian numbers by Edward and
Bobby Heimann of New Braun-
fels; two vocal numbers, “Meet
Me At Twilight” and “Let The
Rest of The World Go By” by
the quartet of girls accompan-
ied by Mrs. Alfred Brosch at
the piano. A contest, “A Gift
to the Bride” was won by Mrs.
Emil Hajek Sr., the prize, a box
of kitchen gadgets, was in turn
presented to the honoree. Mrs.
Brosch gave “A Tribute to the
Bride” after which the honoree
graciously thanked the hostesses
for this delightful hospitality
and the guests for the lovely ar-
ray of gifts and invited all to
attend the Wedding Mass which
is to be held at SS. Cyril and
Methodius’ Catholic Church at
9:00 a.m. Saturday, June 16.
The gifts which had been re-
ceived and displayed by Misses
Linda Sue Hajek, Lillian Vacek,
Shirley Jurica and Betty Roz-
novsky of Gonzales and record-
ed by Mesdames George Patek
of Houston and Daniel Patek
were placed on tables covered
with white cloths and centered
by a bride doll.
The table, from which the
plates and orchid napkins were
passed out by Misses Linda Sue
Hajek and Betty Roznovsky of
Gonzales, was covered with a
white cut-work cloth centered
by a beautiful arrangement of
orchid flowers in orchid and
white bowl flanked on two sides
by matching candle holders
which held burning orchid
tapers.
The refreshment table, cov-
ered by white cut-work cloth,
was appointed in Fostoria Cry-
stal. In the center was a beau-
tiful arrangement of orchid
flowers in low crystal bowl
flanked on each side by double
crystal holders holding burning
orchid tapers. Placed on one
end was the snowy white cake
nestled in orchid ruffled satin
ribbon trimmed in orchid flow-
ers, ribbons and silver dragees.
It was served by Lillian Vacek
and Mrs. Bobby Patek.
At the other end the punch
bowl holding sparkling orchid
colored punch was served by
Patsy Picha and Shirley Jurica.
