TEN MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE Sunday, October 13, 1957 Thousands Cheer as Queen Arrives For Visit in Canada, United States By CAY PAULEY United Press Correspondent Ottawa, IP Britain's Queen Elizabeth flew across the Atlantic in 13 hours and 13 min utes today to an old-world-style royal welcome from her Canadi an subjects launching an 11-day -whirlwind visit to Ottawa and the United States. The queen's plane, the "Seven Seas," left London at 3:09 a.m. edt and touched down here to the boom of a 21-gun cannon sa lute at 4 22 p.m. edt. three min utes ahead of schedule. 3t :30 p.m. sharp, follow ing her timetable with her us ual rigidity, Elizabeth stepped from her gleaming silver and black British overseas airways corporation, U.S.-built DC-7C to the fanfare of trumpets and the strains of "God Save the Queen." The cheers of the airport crowd were louder than the can nons. And the queen and her husband. Prince Philip, smiled in acknowledgement. In the front ranks among the welcom ers were 400 children, each wav ing a union jack. Queen Wears Mink The queen wore regal claret velvet and mink. She wore two pieces of jewelry a diamond maple leafe brooch given to the Queen Mother Elizabeth by the Canadian government in 1039 for the then Princess Elizabeth, and a brooch in the shane of the Quebec shield given the present queen on her visit to Canada in 1951. She smiled happily, showing no sign of fatigue from her long day. She took the royal salute, inspected the 140-man guard of honor and within 15 minutes had f rod the length of a ruby red car pet to a black limousine with a transparent plastic top for the ride to the residence of the gov ernor general of Canada. Saith Sisman, 33. Indian-born chief stewardess on the royal plane, said the queen and prince remained in their special com partment in the rear of the air craft throughout the journey. Good Travelers She said the couple were "very good travellers" and rested dur ing much of the flight, although they did not actually sleep. The prince was "delightfully amus ing," she said, but the queen did not say very much. The queen and prince rode in a compartment consisting of a sitting room, with a divan and dining table, and two dressing rooms. It was decorated with grey walls and carpet, peacock blue upholstery and red curtains. Th"e sky was clear. The weath er was crisp. It was a perfect Canadian autumn day for Eliz abeth to begin her first visit to her Canadian subjects since she became their queen. i Thp route to envprnmpnt house passed some of the city's most spectacular autumn fol iage. Large crowds slowed the way. , Elizabeth first came here as queen's progress much of the a princess six years ago withvher husband. Prince Philip. They toured Canada and the U.S. for several weeks, and he returned alone in 1954. This visit by the queen and prince will consist of only a four-day state visit to Ot tawa before they go to the U.S. To Visit New York The visit to the U.S. will be gin next Wednesday, when the royal party flies to Virginia to attend the 350th anniversary cel ebration of Jamestown. From there they will go to Washing ton, to be guests at the White House. Their tour will end with a one-day visit to New York. They will f!y back to London October 21. In New York the couple will stay in a hotel suite usually oc cupied by the Duke and Duchess of Windsor, it was disclosed to day. However, it is most unlikely that Elizabeth would see her un cle or his wife. The Windsors are in France for the rest of the year. When they are in New York, the Windsors rent a suite in the Waldorf-Astoria Towers. When they're away, it's available to anyone else with the position and the money it requires. Council Rules During Elizabeth's absence, Britain will be technically ruled bv a "council of state." It in cludes Princess Margaret, and Queen Mother Elizabeth who has been suggested as the pos sible successor to Vincent Mas sey as Governor General of Can ada. British Frime Minister Harold Macmillan, U.S. Ambassador John Hay Whitney, Canadian High Commissioner George A. Drew and other dignitaries from the three countries wished the royal couple "godspeed" at a farewell party in Buckingham Palace Friday night. The sherry party was organ ized at Elizabeth's special re quest because she felt there was no point in making the digntar ies get up at dawn to see her off. Ambassador Whitney left early. He had to catch a plane for Washington where he will join President Eisenhower and other U. S. officials welcoming Elizabeth next Thursday. The queen found time between final checks of state papers to telephone Prince Charles. 8. at his boarding house school near London. Charles has recovered from a mild attack of influenza. Elizabeth told the young prince she probably will bring back a present from America if he behaves himself. Charles also was told that in case he feels lonely for "Mama and Papa" his sister. Princess Anne, 7, will join him for Sunday morning church services. Getogether Club Plans Card Party Getogether club will hold a pinochle party Wednesday, Oc tober 16, at 1 p.m. at Moose hall.
