      BOYETT - WHITE

      Miss Anne Boyett, March 31, became the bride of Lt. William J. White, a member of the medical corps, who served as a transfer post surgeon on a troop ship and was on active duty in the campaign of North Africa, Italy and Corsica.

      Mrs. White was graduated from Junction High school (NOTE YEAR 1940) and attended the University of Texas. Lt. Whilte, son of Mrs. Mae White of Osamwatomie, is now stationed at Charleston, S.C. He is a graduate of Osawatomie high school and also attended Kansas University.

      The formal ceremony was performed by Dr. W.R. White at the First Baptist Church in Junction (with Junction marked through and AUSTIN written in) Austin, Texas. The bride, who was given in marriage by her brother, Ernest J. Boyett, wore a gown of white slipper satin with a net overskirt. The skirt joined the long torso waist with a low yoke of marquisette. The veil of bridal illusion was caught with a halo of seed pearls. The bride's only jewelry was a diamond cross; she carried a white Bible on which was a white orchid.

      Best man was Pvt. Florist Criswell of Cleveland, Ohio, and maid of honor was Miss Beverly Baker of Austin, Texas. (Note - Beverly was actually from Junction).

      The couple will be at home in Charleston, S.C.
