She had the medical distinc tion of having mumps twice, and at Ihe age of 12 she was awarded a "very highly recommended" in her village riding show. At 16, the princess was sent to Paris to continue her educa tion. She lived with the family of the Comte de Paris, the pre tender to the French throne, and attended a finishing school At 18. in 1954. the princess came out and began to perform her first official functions alone. Previously she had accompanied her mother o'n the royal rounds. Now. nearing 20. the princess not only has taken on a heavy burden of official responsibili ties, but she also is in on the gay parties and suits herself. She went unannounced to a showing of a rock-and-roll film recently to the consternation of the thea ter management. She has a large circle of friends which, London social writers claim, is stealing the limelight from the "Wallace col lection" (after Billy Wallace) which surrounds Princess Mar garet. According to gossip, the prin cess is not yet interested in mar riage. However, the inevitable rumors have, within the past several years connected ner name with Prince Harald of Nor way, King Baudouin of Belgium and the eldest son of the pre tender of the Spanish throne, Prince' Juan Carlos. But the thing that distinguishes Princess Alexandra and her suc cess is her gaiety. She obviously enjoys her parties: she is relaxed and smiling while attending a meeting of the British Red Cross, of which she is a patron; she skis and skates and plays tennis and, generally, seems happy.
