Obituaries Deepest sympathy goes out to Bob Priestley, set decorator, from his co¬ workers and his many friends on the death of his lovely wife. Margaret, or Maggie as she was affectionately called, was well known having been a hair stylist in the movie industry for 30 years. Her first job as hair dresser was at Universal Studio for many years. Maggie had been in charge of hair styling at Warner Bros, also for 20th Century Fox. Her pass¬ ing leaves a void in the industry and in the hearts of the people who knew her. Deepest sympathy is extended to Norman Alexander, head of Print Shop and Script Dept., on the death of his devoted wife, Peggy. Norman’s wife was buried in the family plot at Mt. Hope Cemetery in Rochester, New York. Over 200 persons, rela¬ tives and friends, attended the services. Although they had been married 37 years, this was the first time Nor¬ man had met his wife’s relatives. He had been corresponding with them during his wife’s illness. Norman would like to thank his co-workers and his many many friends on the lot for their contribu¬ tions to the Cystic Fibrosig Research Foundation his wife’s pet project. Also for the variety of flowers sent to the slumber room at Steen’s Mor¬ tuary and to the Mt. Hope Cemetery in Rochester, New York.

Services will be held tomorrow, For¬ est Lawn, Glendale. Dear Mrs. Mabel DeCinces, I was very happy with your article about my husband. You managed to bring in some of the unique details that added to his great charm — his attaboys, his little Oscar Meyer whistle. Right now reading it and looking at the pictures only deepen my sorrow, but some¬ day I shall treasure everything praiseworthy said about Irvin, for he truly deserved the plaudits of God and Men.
