a series of attractive women to whom the gay and handsome Count had paid attention. She was held today on a technical charge of manslaughter pending outcome of the inquest. The Count, fun-loving eldest son of the former Spanish ruler, shorn of his right to possible succession | to the now nonexistent throne because he married a commoner, died yesterday after an early-morning auto accident. Miss Gaydon was the driver of the auto in which she and Count were returning from a tour of night clubs. Blinded by the | glare of a truck's lights, she said, she swerved the car and lost control of it. The auto crashed into a light pole. The count was frail from childhood. Throughout his life he had been given all possible medical care | because he suffered from the dread inherited disease of haemophilia which subjected him to the ever present threat of bleeding to death. But the malady which curtailed his activities all his life did not | cause his death. He died from

FCC outlined grounds for the de- | cision as follows: | “Due to the interference problems involved, a grant of the application under consideration would necessarily require a denial of the pending application of the Knox Radio Corp. (WKBV) for renewal of its license. “It is not the policy of the Com- | mission to grant an application for a new broadcast facility where it is shown that said grant would necessarily involve the deletion of an existing service, except for compelling reasons of good public policy. No such reasons are shown in this record.
