MRS. GERALD BROOCK
Fern Naomi Bronson became the
bride of Dr. Gerald Jay Broock
in a recent evening ceremony at
the Pontchartrain Hotel. Rabbi M.
Robert Syme officiated, and Can-
tor Harold Orbach was soloist.
Parents of the couple are Mr.
and Mrs. Irving Bronson of Bir-
wood Ave. and Mr. and Mrs. Louis
Broock of Dayton.
Mrs. Joel Levine of Toledo,
the bridegroom's sister, was
matron of honor, and Charlene
Broock, another sister of the
bridegroom, was bridesmaid.
Best man was Ronald Finkel-
man of Dayton. Richard Broock of
Dayton served his brother as
usher, along with Joel Levine and
Dr. Herbert M. Gardner.
The couple plans to live in
Tacoma, Wash., a year before Dr.
Broock takes up his residency in
San Francisco.
Impressive Rush
on American Loan
Dollars as Gifts
Two week ago there were some
20,000 rare Morgan silver dollars
in bags in the vaults of American
Savings and Loan Association at
600 Woodward. But the pile is
vanishing.
The association started giving
away these coveted coins to per-
sons opening savings accounts of
$200 or more or adding at least
that amount to their present sav-
ings accounts.
From the start of the give-away,
according to Alfred L. Deutsch,
president of American, the main
office and the 11 branches of the
association in the metropolitan area
have done a brisk business in silver
cartwheels.
While the exact number of new .
savings accounts opened since
early in October is a secret, Deut-
sch said there had been some days
when more than 200 new accounts
were opened and rare silver dollars
given to those signing up for a
little saving.
Dates on the coins run from
1881 through 1887. They were re-
leased by the U. S. Treasury in
Washington about a year ago and
most of them quickly found their
way into the hands of collectors
and others who realize the pre-
sent and potential value of silver
dollars that are so scarce that
thousands of numismatists across
the country are trying to lay hands
on them, in singles and in lots.
As many as 2,000 showed up in
a single day at the height of the
"run" when the treasury discovered
the pile of silver in vaults where
it had been placed many years ago
and all but forgotten.
One dealer is said to have
offered $40,000 for a bag of the
precious Morgan dollars which had
been minted in 1879.
Deutsch said that families are
opening separate accounts for hus-
band and wife and in some cases
other members of the family, in
order to get as many of the scarce
silver dollars as they can while
the getting is good,
