    Kenneth Rupert Hillbrick (1926-1938) & Evelyn Rachel Smith Wedding
    Recently Wed HILLBRICK - SMITH
    On Boxing Day, St John's Church of England was the scene of the wedding of a popular young couple in Mr. Ken Hillbrick and Miss Evelyn Smith. Dressed in a powder blue double, skirted frock, adorned with royal blue sequins, the bride looked very charming as she entered the church on the arm of Mr. Gerry Lardi, who filled the position in the absence of the bride's father, Mr. E. Smith of Wyalkatchem. A white hat with ¾-length veil set off the bride's ensemble. She carried a white cloth covered bible.
    Matron of Honour, Mrs. Hyland, chose a frock of pretty burgandy, with white accessories. Bridegroom was attended by his brother, Sgt. A. C. Hillbrick, who was granted leave from Japan to act as best man at the wedding. The reception took place in the Kellerberrin Hotel, where 40 guests gathered to honour the occasion. Mr. Tom Pike ably filled the position of Master of Ceremonies and read many congratulatory telegrams. The happy couple were the recipients of many fine and useful gifts.
    After the cutting of the beautiful wedding cake, made by Mr. Ralph Haworth of Mt. Barker, Mr. R. Hillbrick, father of the groom, spoke on behalf of absent friends, particularly the bride's father and the grooms mother, who were unable to be present. At 9.30 p.m. the happy couple bade adieu to their many well-wishing friends and departed on their honeymoon.

    YOUNG WIFE TELLS OF THREAT TO DISFIGURE
    Married less than 2 years ago, attractive, fair-haired young blonde Evelyn Rachel Hillbrick made an appearance in the Married Women's Court yesterday to ask for a separation. She had quite a few complaints to make against her hubby, Kenneth Rupert Hillbrick. She told the SM that Ken boozed too much and far too often, and that everywhere he went he carried a flask of liquor with him and "kept sipping all the time". Drink, she said, upset her marriage after the first few months. "when he drank he was very cruel," she told the SM. "He threatened to disfigure me with a knife" "He used to grab me by the throat and threaten to throttle me." Ken Hillbrick didn't appear in court. Evelyn Hillbrick was granted a separation.
