After Wilder recovered from his
shock, he alsked Lindbergh why
he took a bus all the way from
Pasadena, a two-hour trip involv-
ing four transfers.
As Wilder recalled recently,
"Lindbergh told me that when he
was in a strange town he liked to
travel by but so he could watch
the passengers and listen to them
talk and see the city by himself.”
That real - life drama in the
Wilder living room sums up Lind-
bergh’s half-dozen visits to Holly-
wood during the making of the
motion picture. As one studio
worker says, “He’s like a male
Garbo."
Lindbergh is able to travel on
public buses because, the publi-
city shy flier insists on annqy;
mity. He has seen to it, he told
friends, that he has not been pho-
tographed in the past 20 years.
Thus he can move about unnoticed
because the public doesn't know
what he looks like.

After several games were play-
ed, prizes won by Miss Ella Kautz
of Industry, Mrs. Emil Heitmann

The bride was then directed to
the dining room where many
useful gifts were waiting for her.

Miss Judy Franke, sister of the
groom and Miss Dorothy Faye
Frank and Miss Carol Ann Frank,
cousins of the groom.
After the gifts were opened and

her appreciation for them.
