Marry Go Round A humorous riff on marriage norms
A light extended essay by Helen Morriage argues marriage is a state of mind and most men are uncommitted. It jokes that wives may chase different climates and husbands, from military to radio to “married bachelors,” exist in varied forms. The piece wryly notes eugenic ideas would make choosing a husband a matter of chance, then shifts to standard newspaper boilerplate about the San Antonio Light.
