-1949-
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.
-1950-
December 1, 1950—"Weitzen-Glickman
Exchange Vows," Southwestern Jewish Press, page 3: Saturday evening,
November 25, Arlene Glickman, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Arthur E. Glickman,
became the wife of Fred Weitzen, 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.
