It is Au gust 21, her 25th birthday, the day when she no longer has to ask Queen Elizabeth whom she can wed. On that day of freedom the lit tle princess can, if she wishes, announce her intention of get ting married. She has to wait 12 months before the ceremony, but once she has made' Tier choice only an act of Parliament can stop her. The first drops of what will certainly become a cloudburst of speculation are already pattering against the rambling townhouse of the Windsors. Will she make such an announcement? And if she does, will it be Group Capt. Peter Townsend? These are the questions being parried already by Commander Richard Colville, press secretary to the queen. He expects a very rough sum mer. New Demands As an indication of what is in store for . him, the Sunday Ex press this week demanded that the royal family confirm or deny that Margaret wants to marry Townsend, who was "exiled" to the post of air attache in Brus sels two years ago this month. . Meanwhile, society circles heard that Michael Bonham-Car-ter, 33-year-old publisher and "old faithful" among Margaret's escorts, planned to marry Lady St. Just, daughter of the late American magazine publisher, Conde Nast. Bonham-Carter was a leading dark horse in the Mar garet matrimonial stakes and his departure cuts the field of eli gibles down to a paltry three. Only one of this remaining trio is given even the ghost of a chance Billy Wallace, wealthy polo-playing stepson of Ameri can writer Herbert Agar. He sees a lot of the princess but his best friends claim it is friendship, not love. The other two. Lord Por chester and Colin Tennant, say they are not ready for marriage. Possible Spinster Is the princess to wind up a spinster, then? Some knowledge able courtiers think this is quite possible. Others wonder whether she is letting her chances slip by because she is waiting for Au gust 21 and Group Captain Townsend. Nowhere will the approach of the vital day be watched with more anxiety than in Bucking ham Palace itself. The royal fam ily believes and this is from an excellent source that Princess Margaret has recovered from her infatuation for the handsome war hero. They feel she realizes the han dicaps he is divorced, has two growing boys, makes only $6000 a year, is too old for her. In ad dition, because of his divorce he can never have the approval of Scout Day Camp To Open Monday Girl Scout day camp will open Monday, June 6, and it was an nounced at headquarters today that a few registrations may still be made. Girls may regis ter Monday morning at camp. Busses will provide trans portation from town to the camp on the banks of Bear creek, and will leave from the four elementary city schools, Lincoln, Jackson, Washington and Roosevelt.

Veterans' of For eign Wars, will hold joint instal lation of officers Sunday, June 5. The ceremonies are set for 2 p.m. at VFW hall in Shady' Cove. It is stated that the meeting is open and anyone wishing to at tend will be welcome. Queen Elizabeth, who is head of the established church. Then why the anxiety? Mar garet keeps her own counsel. Her family aren't quite sure what lies beheld those startlingly blue eyes. Is she thinking of August 21 as just another birthday or a day of decision? , x TYPEWRITERS & ADDING MACHINES Repaired MEDFORD OFFICE EQUIPMENT COMPANY 41 S.
