MRS. DANIEL ROE BAEN JR.
...nee Miss Carol Storter
Baen-Storter
On June 5, 1976, Miss Carol
Josephine Storter, daughter of
Mr. and Mrs. George William
Storter of 265 Palo Verde
Drive, Brownsville, was united
in marriage with Mr. Daniel
Roe Baen, Jr. of Sinton, son of
Dr. and Mrs. Daniel Roe Baen
of Mathis. Rev. Paul A. Grout,
Jr. performed the double ring
ceremony in the First United
Methodist Church of Brown-
sville, at fifteen after eight in
the evening. Mrs. Sarah
Hardin of Brownsville was
organist and Miss Susie
Robertson of Houston was
soloist. The bride was given in
marriage by her parents.
For her wedding, the bride
chose a formal long sleeved
gown of white silk organza, fe-
aturing a fitted bodice adorned
with lace and seed pearls.
From the tucked front panel,
bordered with lace, two large
tiers extended into a chapel
train. Her waist length veil
descended from a crown of lace
petals trimmed with seed
pearls. The bride carried a
nose gay of white roses, car-
nations, fuji mums, and baby’s
breath.
The reredos screen was
swagged with palm garlands
with two white doves of Love
and Peace caught up in the
center. Brass candelabra
flanked the altar, which was
fronted by two brass baskets of
white gladioli and white car-
nations. Additional
arrangements of white gladioli
and white carnations were set
on the floor at each end of the
chancel. The family and
houseparty pews were marked
by bows of white satin and tiny
flowers. Other center aisle
* pews were decorated with
miniature arrangements of
carnations and greenery.
Mrs. Richard Kline of
Austin, sister of the bride,
served as matron of honor. The
bridesmaids were Mrs. Mark
Rogers of Ausitn, also sister of
the bride, Miss Robin- Shawn
Poerschke of Houston, and
Miss Catherine Louise Baen of
Mathis, sister of the groom.
The bride’s attendants wore
blue floral print organza gowns
with matching jackets and
carried nose gays of yellow
daisies and baby’s breath.

Norris Visitors
Mrs. Joe Ed Furr, Darren
and David of Irving have been
visiting her parents, the John
L. Norris, the past few days.
While here the family visited
Padre Island, Mr. and Mrs.
Robert Goode, Jr. and family
of San Benito, went fishing
over night on the Intercoastal
Canal near Port Mansfield, and
visited friends in Mathis.
Monday, the Norris’ took
Thana and her boys to Sabinal,
where the family owns and
operates a summer singing
school. They stopped in
Pleasanton briefly for a visit
with friends.
The Furrs are to return to
Irving June 17th.
Canned fruits and
vegetables, followed closely by
tuna fish and peanut butter,
head the list of grocery
specials at Texas stores this
week, reports Mrs. Gwen-
dolyne Clyatt, consumer
marketing information
specialist.
“And at fresh vegetable
counters, cabbage is an ex-
cellent choice, with good
quality and moderate price.
Fresh asparagus is still
available but quality and
supply are on the decline now,”
she noted.
Mrs. Clyatt is with the Texas
Agricultural Extension Ser-
vice, The Texas A&M
University System.
“Other economical buys in
fresh vegetables include
carrots, green beans,
tomatoes, corn, zucchini and
yellow squash, green peppers
and cucumbers.”
Topping good fruit bargains
are oranges, grapefruit,
cantaloupe, honeydews and
watermelons. Also, features
can be found on bananas and
pineapples, she added.
But supplies are limited and
price levels relatively high on
peaches, cherries, nectarines
and grapes, Mrs. Clyatt said.
“Good values on dairy
products include milk, sour
cream, yogurt and a variety of
cheeses.
“Beef supplies are adequate,
with prices about the same as
last week. Features, generally,
are on chuck roasts and steaks,
Mrs. R. S. Steinmeyer of St.
Louis, Missouri is visiting her
mother, Mrs. Lillian Car-
michael.
round steaks, beef liver and a
variety of steaks for broiling,”
she said.
The perennial outdoor
cooking favorite - frankfurters
- is being featured, too.
“Poultry counter specials
feature whole bird and mixed
parts.
“Pork specials are scarce,
but consumers can find an
occasional good buy in quarter-
loins cut into chops, Boston
butt roasts, bacon and liver.
CONSUMER WATCH-
WORDS: Make a main-dish
omelet, plain or filled, to
relieve mealtime monotony
and pressure on the food
budget.
When the price of eggs is 79
cents per dozen, the price per
pound is 53 cents, and the cost
of a two-egg serving is only 13
cents - a real saving compared
to other main-dish foods.
The Lydia Sunday School
Class met June 9 at 3 P. M. in
the fellowship hall of the First
Baptist Church with Mrs.

The meeting was opened
with the playing of the record
“I Believe”, sung by Anita
Bryant.
Mrs. Bycie Ponton brought
the devotional: subject “I
Believe,” with special
reference to John, chapters 11-
12 in the Bible. She read an
inspiring paper which she had
prepared, listing the main
points of what “I Believe”.
Mary Jane Robertson and
Audrey Edmondson talked to
the group about the youth work
in the church this summer,
