By GAY PAULEY New York TP Queen Eliza beth II left for home early today and it was almost as if a fairy queen had come and gone. She and her prince charming for 10 days took Americans' mind3 off Sputnik, the Mideast and domestic headaches. Elizabeth was many things to those who welcomed her and her husband. Prince Philip, wher ever they went Ottawa, James town, Williamsburg, Washing ton and New York. To her own folks in Canada, where she paid her first call, she was a real personage, to be treated almost reverently. In the United States, she be came an earthy "Lizzie", "Liz" or "Hiyah, Queen." But she also represented the storybook queen of our childhood. President Eisenhower saw the Queen as a "symbol" of the link between the two English speak ing peoples whose interests are the same. Mayor Robert Wagner, of New York, called her a "great queen, and a gracious lady." Celebrity To All And wherever she visited, she ft-as a celebrity the whole town turned out to see.

Escorted to Idlewild Shortly after midnight the Obubble-topped limousine which president Eisenhower lent roy alty for its visit pulled away (from the armory- With motor cycle escort it headed for Idle wild airport. The big silver ship a BOAC DC7C was one hour late in tak ing off. ' This business of being queen is work, even if the reward is dazzling gowns, a multi-million dollar jewel collection and adu lation. Most of us wouldn't last a week on such a schedule. Roy alty always is "on" . . . although the minute the Queen hits the front door of her own quarters, off come her shoes. They put in a nine to midnight work schedule every day, which left little time for sleep. They shook hands, in reception lines, with close to 9,000 persons. They made speeches, placed cor nerstones, laid wreaths at me morials, attended church serv ices, visited a thoroughbred horse farm, took in a football game, and visited a supermar ket.
