a " 416 THE DAIRY TIMES-GAZETTE, Tuesday, Mareh 9, 1054 MOVIE COLUMN Benny Bravely Foots Joan's Wedding Bill By BOB THOMAS HOLYYWOOD (AP)--Jack Ben- ny's reputation as a tight-wad gets a jolt tonight when he foots the bill for a lavish wedding of his daughter Joan to Seth Baker of New York. Rabbi Edgar F. Magnin is sched- uled to marry the young pair in rivate ceremonies at the Hills Hotel. Present will be th parents of the couple--the Bennys and New York industrialist Harry Baker and his wife, plus a few intimate friends of the family. These include Barbara Stanwyck, George Burns and Gracie Allen, Bob Hope, Mr. and Mrs. William Goetz and Claudette Colbert. After the ceremony, the hotel's Crystal Room will be packed with about 500 well-wishers, including more of Hollywood's top stars. "Outside of having an elope- ment, there were only two ways we could have done it," sighed Benny. "We could have had a very small wedding and invited only the fam- ily and a handful of friends. Or we could have a big affair and invite everyone. Because too many people would have been slighted, we decided to have a big wedding. I remarked that this might ruin his reputation as a money-pincher, built up for years on radio and TV. "Reputation nothing!" he pro- tested. "This might ruin me!" He estimated that the entire af- fair may run up a bill in excess of $25,000. This might seem h to all those except fathers who have had to finance wedding lately. "Oh, well, I have only one daughter," said Benny bravely. "I don't care what it costs, just so the kids have a happy marriage." CONTRAST TO PAPA He added that Joan's wedding is a contrast' to when he married Mas Livingstone. "We did'it in Waukegan at the home of a friend," he recalled. "There were six or seven people there, and the cost of the wedding was nil. We didn't even have i to have a reception. We were ed in the afternoon, and I had to grab the train to Chicago, where I was appearing in a show that night." Joan, 19, is an adopted daughter and was a junior at Stanford when she decided to get married. She has appeared on the Benny radio show and was on his TV program {last month.
