!MARR: During the Depression, only one person in a family could be a wage earner. Because Wavie would lose her teaching job at the end of the year, Laurence and Wavie decided to keep their marriage a secret by eloping to Las Vegas. Their plans were foiled when a small article appeared in the local paper, "Utah couple married in Las Vegas".
