In a ceremony performed, Sat., Dec. 23, Miss Betty Oldfather, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Glen Oldfather, became the bride of Melvin Puffett, son of Mr. and Mrs. Merwyn Puffet, at the First Methodist church, with the Rev. Floyd R. Maynard officiating. The bride's sister, Miss Joyce Oldfather, played the wedding march and accompanied her brother, Raymond Oldfather and Miss Marilyn Puffett, the groom's sister, when they sang "I Love you Truely."
