April 1949—Bobbie Solomon,
"Collegiates N' Intermejits," Southwestern Jewish Press, page
17: ... Staring enchanted (or perhaps simply in a state of coma) a nmber
of musical devotees...high brows all...were spied at the Russ Auditorium Monday
eve (March 21) listening to violinist Joseph Szigeti's performance. Among those
"music lovers" we noticed yawning or leaning forward in anxious
anticipation were Sylvia Winiki, Arlene Bloomer, Esther Mador n' Stanford Brust,
Barney Rosenthal, Nancy Weitzen, Rosslyn Godwin, Estelle Addleson, Marilyn
Schissell 'n Milton Katz, Larry Solomon, and as long as we're talking about the
young, we must include the perennially young Rabbi Morton Cohn and his wife,
Sally, Mr. and Mrs. Fred Weitzen, Rabbi Monroe Levens and Mr. and Mrs.
Morrie Krause (sic, Kraus), whom we spied chatting in the lobby during
intermissions. The Concert was fine all agreed and especially liked were
Szigetti's encores.

Jr., son of Mr. and Mrs. Fred Weitzen at a family wedding in the home of the
bride's cousins, Mr. and Mrs. Saul Chenkin. Rabbi Morton J. Cohn performed the
ceremony. Given in marriage by her father, Arlene was gowned in an
original rich cream satin dress with a yoke of net outlined with bead
embroidery. The embroidery was repeated on the bodice and long sleeves. Her
finger-tip net veiling was caught to a Juliet cap and she carried an
orchid-topped white Bible with stephantis streamers. Serving her sister as maid
of honor was Roberta Glickman. Roberta wore a dress of ice pink taffeta skirted
in net, with matching mitts. Aqua carnations were in her cascade flower
arrangement. Joseph Weitzen served his brother as best man. Members of the
immediate families and the bridal party gathered at a dinner following the
ceremony. A honeymoon for the newlyweds will be spent motoring northward.
