    Teachers Marry In Saturday Rite

    Evelyn Marie Kovar, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Peter Paul Kovar, Rossville, and Mahlon B. Thompson Jr., son of Mr. and Mrs. Mahlon B. Thompson, were married in a double ring ceremony Saturday.

    The Very Rev. Leslie Skerry Olsen read the marriage vows at 10 a.m. in Grace Episcopal Cathedral. Max R. Elsberry was organist and John Appleton and Thomas Appleton were acolytes.

    The bride, given in marriage by her father, wore a gown of white, imported Jacquard cotton fashioned with a slim skirt, high rounded neckline, fitted bodice, long sleeves and a long detachable train. Her illusion veil fell from a coronet of matching fabric. She carried a cascade of Killian daisies, stephanotis and ivy.

    Betty Kovar, Kansas City, Mo., attended her sister as maid of honor. Bridesmaids were Mrs. Robert Rafferty, Rossville, sister of the bride, and Sharon Smith.

    They wore floor-length dresses of island green satin fashioned with slim skirts, rounded necklines, fitted bodices and elbow-length sleeves. Their floor-length trains were attached at the neckline with bows. They carried cascades of Killian daisies and ivy.

    Kimberly Kovar, Liberty, Mo., was flower girl. Her dress was similar to the bride's attendants. Michael Rafferty, Rossville, carried the rings.

    Richard Young was best man and ushers were David Pantle, Denver, Colo.; Earl Kovar, Liberty, Mo., brother of the bride; Robert Rafferty, Rossville; and David Slater.

    A reception in the Cathedral dining room followed the ceremony. Assisting were Mrs. Earl Kovar, Liberty, Mo.; Mrs. Clyde Brown, Louisburg; Janette Brown and Jaanine Brown, Kansas City, Mo.; Mrs. Charles Renyer, Mrs. David Slater, Mrs. Josephine Murphy and Mrs. William Monteith.
