CORN-COBB
     Corn marries Cobb--look for the nubbins.  Miss Jessie Margaret Corn and
Hanley Duncan Cobb were married at noon at the home of the bride's parents,
Mr. and Mrs. J. A. Corn, on North Sante Fe St.  When Cobb went to the Clerk
of Records to get the marriage license, the clerk refused to issue it,
thinking it was a practical joke.

     It was not until the bride's mother insisted that the Corn-Cobb wedding
was on the level that the license was issued.  Cobb shelled out for the
license and said he expected to be shelling our for Mrs. Cobb and the
little nubbins the rest of his life.
