Princess Margaret Ends Stay In Rome ROME (UPl)—Princess Margaret and Queen Mother Elizabeth fly to Paris today, ending a weeklong stay in Rome marred by several untoward incidents and brightened by rumors of romance. The six-day holiday included an audience with Pope John XXIII which raised some Protestant criticism in England and Scotland, plenty of and, for Margaret, an all-night champagne and scrambled egg party. The romance rumors centered on handsome Prince Henry of Hesse, 31-year-old nephew of former Kin Umberto of Italy. The princess danced with him at a Rome nightclub, went sight-seeing with him and had cocktails with two other women at his apartment. Sources close to the princess said Mararet found him “very charming,” but they said there could be no talk of romance at this time. The tour also had its less fortunate moments. The Royal Air Force Comet that brought the royal party here overshot Rome’s airport on arrival and had to make a second landing attempt. That one was successful and safe. During the ride to the Vatican to see Pope John, the royal limousine was snarled in Rome’s worst traffic jam, caused by a transit strike. Friday 29-year-old Maria Pellicciutta, shouting in Italian “bread and work,” attempted to accost the queen mother on the steps of Rome’s ciy hall. Police took her away. And. finally, the princess’ party accidentally wandered into an Italian army firing range while horse-back riding Friday. An ofoficer accompanying Margaret spotted the danger, however, and halted the firing, which was with live ammunition. Central Soya Co.

Says Nikita May Be Seriously 111 “There is a good possibility that Nikita Krushchev, titular Soviet leader, is seriously 411,” Harold K. (Heine) Milks, chief of the Associated Press Moscow Bureau for the past three years, told members of the Fort Wayne Press club Friday evening at the Van Orman Hotel in Fort Wayne. Milks, who will head the Caribbean bureau with headquarters at Havana starting next week, told the group that he was “very glad” to be leaving Russia. The three years that he spent in Russia were not peaceful, he explained, and newsmen there talk to fewer Russians than visiting tourists, because they must schedule all of their visits with Russian nationals through the press office of the Russian foreign department. “The Reds,” he warned. “are keeping the initiative in the cold war struggle, and the West must seize the initiative to be effective, Russia does not want war, little or big, because she fears that a small war might spread into a world-wide conflagration. “Khrushchev is the unchallenged boss of Russia today—he faces no organized opposition of any kind. ,Recently the Soviet press has praised him highly on a regular daily basis, much like Stalin was praised. All of the old leaders hav« been removed from their positions and no new ones have grown up.” Milks and his wife lived normally enough ih Russia, with such things as cokes and beer readily availably. Food was ordered through Copenhagen, Denmark, and the Russians allowed them a liberal import ration, the same as foreign officials. They ate the same types of food which they ate at home. “But there was always the feeling that the government had complete control over you—you could not go more than 25 miles from Moscow without special permission, and even when you visited off-the-beaten-path sections of Moscow a small Russian car with a long antenna, obviously from the secret police, would follow behind. Russian officials seem to enjoy harassing people, and getting the news was quite an ordeal, as was getting it out of Russia.” Milks predicted a partial solution of the German questioii, probably at the summit level, later this year. China and Russia are still close, but the Russians fear that China may take over the lead in international Communism. The Russians are still exporting goods, factories, arms, and other products to China, however. Milks closed with a forty-min-ute question-and-answer session from the many members of the press present. Those who attended included, among many others, Wayne Rothgeb of WKJG and several of those who went to Russia last summer with Rothgeb; Mr. and Mrs. Hilliard Gates, Cliff Milnor, Mr. and Mrs. James Holthouse. and Mr. and Mrs. Dick Heller, Jf. Locate Robert Murphy, a senior at Decatur Catholic high schools, is attending the senior day services at Ball State Teachers College as a guest of Bill Beal this weekend. Sunday, Mr. and Mrs. Lawrence Beal and daughters, Jayne and Pat, will attend the parents’ day services at Ball State and visit with their son, Bill. Norman Brokaw, son of Mr. and Mrs. Luther Brokaw of rural route 1, Monroe, underwent surgery today at the Adams county memorial hospital.

Two Officials Are Released On Bond INDIANAPOLIS (UPD — Two i Marion County commissioners ' were held in their own jail for 1 more than six hours Friday on i contempt of court charges. Marion Circuit Judge John L. I Niblack ordered Lester R Duri ham and Eph W. Virt to jail after declining to rule immediately on their motion for a new trial on the contempt charges. Niblack declined to set bail and , departed from his office with the explanation “I’m going fishing.” But four attorneys found a loophole in the law and obtained the release of Virt and Durham on SI,OOO bond each. The two were in jail cells for 6 hours and 18 minutes. As county commissioners, Durham and Virt are the taxpayers’ “managers” of all county property, including the jail. They appropriate funds from tax receipts for its operation. The action was the latest round in a running battle between the commissioners. Niblack, Governor Handley and acting Marion County Clerk Edwin McClure. The involved legal maneuvering began April 7 when Democratic County Clerk Harry J. Gasper died in office. Handley appointed McClure, a fellow Republican, tc fill the post. The commissioners objected to his appointment, contending it was their duty to appoint a replacement for Gasper. Virt and Durham appointed Gasper’s widow to the job. Suits were filed in several courts to determine who was the legal clerk. McClure was ruled acting clerk until the Indiana Supreme Court decides the dispute.’ Durham and Virt got in trouble with Niblack when they refused to sign the payroll for 102 county employes in direct defiance of his order. He cited them for coni tempt and ordered their arrest. Virt and Durham disappeared , and were sought by state, county and local police for several days When they voluntarily appeared before Niblack Friday, the judge levied SI,OOO fines and ordered them to ail until the fines were paid* SPECIAL FOR Friday - Saturday and Sunday “6” HAMBURGERS *I.OO WIN - RAE DRIVE - IN North 13th Street
