Miss Lucianne Chris, daughter of Mrs. Mary Chris, of Abbotsford, chose for her wedding day, Oct. 26, which was the birthday anniversary of her sister, Mrs. Adolph Kleinstick, of Gary, Indiana.

On Saturday morning at 9:30 she was given in marriage by an older brother, Ben Chris, of Gary, Indiana, to Frank J. Zondlo, son of Mrs. Rose Zondlo, of Rib Lake, at St. Bernard’s Catholic Church. The Rev. Francis Brockman officiated at the double ring ceremony before the nuptial high mass.

Vases of large, white and yellow chrysanthemums and pompons decorated the altar for the occasion.

The bride wore a gray wool gabardine suit, a rose gold choker, and pink feathered hat, and carried a rosary. Her corsage was made of pink roses and swansonia.
