Groeteke of Columbus, and Asa Pollard of Clarks, son of Mr. and Mrs. Will Pollard were married Thursday morning, Nov. 17 at 6:30 o'clock at St. Peter's Catholic church in Clarks, with Rev. Fr. Kunkie, pastor, officiating at the ceremony. They were attended by Miss Dolan Pollard of Clarks, sister of the bridegroom, and Lloyd Ruff of Columbus, brother of the bride. Only the immediate relatives attended the ceremony. The bride wore a teal blue wool dress, trimmed with a deep shade of wine, and her accessories were in keeping with the colors. Following the wedding they came to Columbus for their wedding breakfast at the home of Dr. and Mrs. Groeteke. The table was arranged with a beautiful lace cloth, centered with a large bowl of yellow and rust chrysanthemums, and tall yellow tapers were on either side. A beautiful wedding cake, baked by Mrs. Groeteke, trimmed with yellow rose buds and topped with a miniature bride and bridegroom, was served after the breakfast. Mr. and Mrs. Pollard left later for a few days' honeymoon trip to an unannounced destination, and upon their return will reside in Clarks.
