City Manager Rear said that, in
all, some 450 persons are affected

Rear Thursday night said much

from 10 inches of rainfall which

The little Riviera domain of the
handsome 32 - year old Arainier

people when they heard the first i

place of the principality, has talked
about little else ever since.
The prince and his 26-year-old
serene highness-to-be were toasted ;
in champagne. Flowers were
wreathed around their pictures in ;
shop windows. Everyone rejoiced
that Ranier at last would take a
! wife. i
If he were to die without heir
! his principality, which requires its
20,000 permanent resident to pay
no taxes, would revert to rrencn
rule with French tax rates pre
vailing. Miss Kelly. In radiant mood, told
newsmen who jammed the family
mansion for the reception that she
I did indeed plan a family.
Both Miss Kelly and the prince
arc Roman Catholics. Neither has
been married before. What's more,
Grace said that she was in love
only once before, with a Philadel
phia boy now dead. Thus did she
dispose of persistent rumors until
recently of a romance between her
and actor Jean Pierre Aumont.
The press reception in the bit;, 1
sprawlirte house of John B. Kelly, j
millionaire builder and civic lead
er, was gay and informal.
