'Peter Townsend, divorced commoner. Judging by letters to newspaper editors. Indications are rites may occur on Margaret's 25th birthday this year. (International) Capt. Townsend Said Unaware if Margaret Has Plans To Marry Brussels, Belgium fU.R) Group Capt. Peter Townsend said today he has no reason to believe that Princess Margaret has decided to marry him. He held before him as he talked with reporters a dispatch in a London paper saying he was willing to accept exile with a certain lady if the situation should demand it. "This statement implies that Princess Margaret has decided to Around Hollywood By ALINE MOSBY United Press Correspondent Hollywood (U.R) The cur rent craze among teen agers for songs with racy lyrics has rhythm-and-blues become a sizzling con troversy around the country. A rhythm and - blues tune, or "R, and B" as devotees call Aline Mosby it, has a jazz two-beat that some musicians call "barbaric" or "dirty." Us ually there's a honking saxa phone behind the blues-wailing lyrics. But one anti-R-and-B disc jockey, Peter Potter of CBS Ra dio's Jukebox Jury, snorted to day it isn't the music the kids go for "but the filthy lyrics." "Teach Me Tonight" is what Potter calls a "watered down R-and-B." When the De Castro Sis ters' record of that song first appeared, several columnists blasted the lyrics that 'proclaim among other things, "Gradua tion's almost here my love, Teach me, tonight." Number One Tune But the tune went on to be come number one on TV's Your Hit Parade." "Please Don't Freeze" with Helen Grayco singing, "So Boom" and "Rock and Roll" are other R-and Bs that made the big-time. "But those songs are mild, high school stuff compared to the R-and-B records put out by smaller companies," said Potter. "When I first heard 'So Boom' I thought it was one of the worst records I'd ever heard and I play more than 350 a week. But after I played it as a test. I got 100 requests. The kids told me it was danceable. "I won't play hardly any R-and-B records. Some disc jock eys who are desperate for an audience play them but I won't." The titles of many R-and-B tunes could not be printed in a newspaper. Yet, Potter pointed out, they are sold to teen-agers in record stores, played on the radio and seen on juke boxes. The disc jockey bemoaned the fact the major recording com panies have joined the R-and-B fad. too. Miller Gave In "Mitch Miller, the executive at Columbia Records, once told me he would never record any R-and-B songs but he finally gave in," the deejay signed. "The kids seem to get a biological kick out of listening to these wild records. One mother wrote me she found four in her daughter's room and broke them. When these songs were written, good taste went out the window. Even if the lyrics are clean, they sound risque the way they're sung." Potter thinks radio and TV stations should set up a clearing house to pass on records that the disc jockeys spin. "If I had the power I'd sen tence the songwriters to jail," he added. "I think those tunes marry me," he said, pointing to the dispatch. "The Princess has made no such decision known to me nor have I any reason to believe she has made such a decision." Townsend, wearing riding breeches, met reporters in front of his apartment. He said he would not answer questions but that he had a statement to make. "You all know I described this alleged statement Saturday as pure invention and said it should be completely disregard ed," he said. "This is only one thing that in view of the state ment swells the number of oth er fictitious things alleged to have been said by me. "I shall now be forced to seek escape from meeting reporters." Townsend returns to work to day as air attache at the Brit ish embassy after a two-week leave. After reading his statement he entered his car then turned as if to add something but said simply, "Goodbye, thank you," and drove off. End To Romance Suggested London's latest sensation ap peared in the London Sunday newspaper, The People. Dr. Alfred Blunt, bishop of Brad ford, the bishop who stripped official silence from the love af fair of King Edward VIII, sug gested that Townsend and the Princess call off any romance. "The legitimate church atti tude would be against such a marriage," he said. He pointed out that Townsend is a divorced man and that the Church of England does not sanction such marriages if both of the divorc ed persons are alive. Sailor Survives 12 Days in Ocean Cartagena, Colombia (U.R) A sailor ashed off a Colombian destroyer survived 12 days in the Carribbean sea clinging to a piece of timber without food or water. Louis Alejandro Velasco, one of eight seamen lost from the destroyer Calda during a storm, was brought to a hospital here yesterday from Turbo where fishermen plucked him from the Gulf of Uraba near Panama. His body was a mass of blisters from the sun. Velasco was found 300 miles from where he and the others were swept off the destroyer by a huge wave. He said he kept close to three of the crewmen during his first three days in the water but lost sight of them. Billy Graham Leaves U.S. for Scotland New York (U.R) Evan eelist Billy Graham left for a preach ing tour of Scotland Saturday declaring that a religious revival within five years is the only hope of the world. Graham sailed aboard the French Liner Liberte to appear in 38 Scottish towns and cities, beginning with Glasgow. He told reporters before he left that the West is on the de cline. "I am going this year with more of a sense of fear," he said. A religious revival is the onlv hope of the world.
