Wedding To Feature Replica Of Biblical Feast By JANE COCHRAN SAN History will roll back 1,955 years in San Francisco Saturday when 'beehive-shaped loaf of bread replaces the currently traditiona tiered white cake at a wedding feast.

Not only will bread be featured, 'but also honey, sheaves of un- threshed wheat, loose wheat grains, a sacrificial lamb and serving utensils made in the period of the life of Christ. The occasion will be the reception at the Sheraton-Palace Hotel following the wedding in the Grace Cathedral Chapel of Sandra Rietz of San Francisco and Roderick D. Jones of Oakland. Their reception 'however, will take the form of rites known as the "first feast" and practices at the time of the dawn of Christendom. More than a decade of research 'by Dr.

George HeclJey, Mills College chaplain, and Carl A. Rietz, 'father of the bride and a member of the faculty at the Oakland Women's College, went into analyzing historical information on early Christian food and marriage customs in preparation for the occasion. Dr. Hedley is a widely known Methodist clergyman, scholar and author, and Professor Rietz is an authority on food customs throughout the world. Both have traveled extensively in the Holy Land.

Dr. Hedley will officiate and explain the 'symbolism of the feast which opens with the sounding of the ram's horn, followed by presentation of the ceremonial bread, toaked in the shape of an enormous 'beehive. A great basin of honey and the wheat will accompany it as the ushers bear it in on a large paten. The hive of bread symbolizes the requirement of diligence essential to any successful marriage; the honey, the pleasure this work can to the man and wife together. The bridegroom will break off a portion of the bread, dip it in the honey and offer it to his bride.

Then the guests follow suit. The traditional sacrificial lamb, symbolic of the devout hopes for happiness and success placed upon the couple by members of their families, appears next. The bridegroom again breaks off the first portion but this time he eats before his bride. Final step in the feast ritual is drinking of wine from a shallow earthen bowl found in the Land by the bride's father an. authenticated as belonging to the period of the life of Jesus.

The wine symbolized the hope for pros perity as it is accompanied with the exhortation to "drink of wine only as it is earned." The entire beehive of bread is torn away at the conclusion of the ceremony to reveal a wedding cake of whole-wheat and honey pastry believed common during the life of the Holy Family. Dr. Hedley and Rietz" believe that the white wedding cake is custom stemming from oriental or Buddhist ceremonies since wholewheat flour was used in Jreads of the Holy Land. Rice also belongs to the orient there is trong evidence that grains of wheat were used by early Chris- ians to symbolize hope for a boun- iful union. TEN YEARS OLD Edward Finkle is celebrating his tenth birthday today.
