By K. C. THALER LONDON (UPI)—Liberal Czechoslovak Communist leader Alexander Dubcek has been warned by the Soviets that he is on “probation.” He will be ousted if he fails to carry out the Kremlin’s dictate to the letter, diplomatic sources said today. The Russians allowed Dubcek to return to Prague with the firm understanding he will stick to the Moscow terms and will make Czechoslovaks bow to them. But Moscow continues to distrust him and others of his key backers in the government and party leadership and would push him out of power at the first sign that he is wavering, the sources said. Having gone to the length of outright military invasion of Czechoslovakia, the Kremlin leaders will have no compunc. tion about taking any or all measures they consider necessary to make Moscow’s hard line prevail in Prague, the authoritative diplomatic infermants said. A major party purge was expected to be urged by the Soviets within Czechoslovakia in the next few weeks. Moscow has already charged Czechoslovak Communist party members have joined the “counter revolutionaries” and are out to split the party and to undermine its ability to act. Diplomatic sources said it was becoming doubtful whether in the circumstances Dubcek will, in effect, be able or allowed to function much longer.

CHICAGO (UPI)—A widely heralded plan to protect newsmen from police beatings inflicted during three previous nights of confrontations between police and antiwar protesters broke down Wednesday night during melees outside convention headquarters. At least six newsmen were injured, five arrested and Prince weds storekeeper’s daughter By IAN WESTERGREN OSLO (UPI)—Once upon a time there was a crown prince of Norway who fell in love with a storekeeper’s daughter. But the prime minister said they could not marry. The handsome prince said he would never marry unless he could wed the girl he loved. For 10 years the government said no. Today Crown Prince Harold and Sonja Haraldsen came to their happy beginning, a wedding that should allow them to live happily ever after as man and wife and, sometime, as king and queen. Their simple Lutherah church wedding ceremony was set for 5 p.m. (noon EDT). To the ceremony came four kings, a reighning archduke, two presidents and a throneroom full of princes and princesses. The story of Harold and Sonja began a decade ago when the crown prince, then a 22-year-old army cadet, met the brunette daughter of an Oslo clothing store owner at a private party. A few months later Harold invited Sonja to his graduation ball. Someone took a photograph of the smiling couple and the royal secret was out. Popular opinion clearly sided with the couple. But the socialist government of Premier Einar Gerhardsen quietly vetoed the match. For 10 years that was the way it was. Then, suddenly, the socialist government was voted out of office. A non-socialist regime took power. On March 19 the engagement was announced. King Olav happily sent out invitations. Given special place in the church were the visiting kings of Sweden, Denmark and Belgium, the archduke of Luxembourg, and the presidents of Finland and Iceland. But none took precedence over King Olav and Mrs. Karl Haroldsen, widowed mother of the bride.
