TEH MEDfCRD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE Wednesday, February 12, 1837 Prince Rainier No Longer Calls Old Friends; Now Content With Princess j bonne, he bought- a big sai! I ing boat which is being out j fitted into a luxury yacht at i Toulon. By ROBERT MUSEL United Presi Correspondent Monaco W The phone -used to ring late at night in the apartment of Ejile Cor net. "Come on over and have a drink," the plaintive voice "would say. - Another phone used to twinkle in the presbytery of " Father John Francis Tucier. "How about a movie to night?" But Prince Rainier doesn't --call any more. Up in the big - house on the hill, there's a happy man at last a man : who is so jealous of the con ... tentment he has found in his beautiful wife, Grace Keily. and his year-old baby, Prin i -cess Caroline, that he is acute ...ly sensitive to rumors most other men would ignore. . For instance, there are the '-persistent rumors that prin . cess Grace, whose second child is due in March, is planning some day to return to Holly- wood. ZT "The Prince had an inquiry made into the origin of these C reports," said Cornet, a racing driver pal who is now his press officer. "He found that thev started in Hollywood." Z But from thtf blissful way 'Z things look in this little prin- - cipality. Princess Grace is ap ; parently never going, back. - Nothing could appear to be Z more certain as the second Z anniversary of their spectacu Z lar wedding approaches in Z April. Z The story of Monaco today I is a human one. It is the story of a shy, somewhat austere - prince who did not have the -happiest of family lives and ha been transformed. ; Holding Hands Z He and Princess Grace hold ZZZhands at receptions. His fath " er, the playboy Prince Pierre de Polignac. hurries over to 'play with Princess Caroline and shows her picture proud ly to his friends. Father Tucker said of Grace, "She has turned that cold mausoleum of a palace ' into a warm home. Down in "their private apartment she and the prince, cook for each other and play house. The staff are happy. Grace gives them little presents. She brings the baby around to "Zthexn to- see. t'The people are proud of her. The prince is proud of her and he is proud of him self for having her. He knows she is a greater attraction of the two and he delights in it. i He often says. 'You cut the ribbon,' or 'You give the prize. These are things ne used to do but is happy to have her the center of atten tion." Father Tucker said the peo ple would like to see more of Grace but she has been an expectant mother most of her entire time in Monaco so far and she wants "Many chil dren." When times are good at the gambling casino, they are good with Rainier, whose treasury draws a fat percent age of the take. Besides a mountain top house in Font- Objector Lives Guinea Pig Life Bethesda, Md. W A youthful Mennonite conscien tious objector to service in the armed forces is living the life of a human guinea pig at the National Institute of Health to aid scientific research. Jerry Duerksen, 20, Moun tain Lake, Minn., who chose to serve science rather than compromise his religious scru ples against military service, lives in a special sealed cham ber for several days at a time. During the experimental per iods, scientists record his every move, and measure the amount of food he eats, the water he drinks and the amount of air he breathes. The metabolic chamber is designed to determine how humans use food, air and wa ter in the process of living. The results of the tests are expected to aid in discovering the secrets of arthritis and other metabolic diseases. In the chamber, Duerksen resembles a space cadet for he wears a helmet which con tains a two-way radio through which, he communicates with the doctors and through which they issue orders. A tread mill inside the chamber pro vides the young Minnesotan with exercise during the con finement periods. A Healthy Touch Grace has added a healthy touch of informality to pal ace life. She and the prince j now turn up at the Hotel de Paris for1 dinner and a dance ' he never used to come when he was a bachelor. In a re I cent London visit, they went I to small restaurants. The prince always wanted to go to informal places. With Grace he can. Another factor in their hap piness is the fact that things are booming in his tiny 372 acre country. The gambling casino is once again the capi tal of European games of chance and a fury of building and alteration is going on. Old villas are coming down and apartment houses -are going up. Older dwellings are adding new floors in what some are calling a vertical ex pansion since there is very little room for horizontal growth. Some old residents are not happy about the disappear ance of green places and the i change in character of the principality. But criticism is apt to be muted. As one wealthy resident said, "The fellow on the hill could cancel my resident permit in a min ute if he wanted to." The mere threat of being sent back to taxation is enough to turn foreigners pale. The Picture That's the picture as this well-adjusted couple complete the second year of marriage. Grace and Rainier liked each other when a French magazine first introduced them - for a publicity photo graph. Then Father Tucker prodded destiny into action and so love was born. Of his part in the storybook ' romance, the Wilmington, i Del., priest remarks somewhat cryptically: "Perfect matches are made in heaven safety matches are made by man." As I left he gave me a cigar from a box he is apparently hoarding for the birth of Princess Grace's second baby. On the cellophane wrapper were the hopeful words: , "It's a boy." mi tim mml J ""' ""' """"" """ . 170 Pairs of Ladies Shoes at Real Slashed Prices. We are cleaning house.

The missile is propelled by rocket over the target area, and then is lowered by parachute automatically. At this point, a homing device takes over and seeks out the enemy beneath the surface. (U.S. Navy Photo) Library Offers Students Advantage Chicago OP) The smart student is the one who takes advantage of the school's li brary rather than attempt to study at home in a surround ing of television, radio, young er children and other factors which may disturb concentra tion. This is the view of Virgil Catlin, the administrative as sistant of Proviso Township High School of Maywood, a suburb of Chicago. ' Catlin conducted a survey of many high schools and found that the institutions are becoming1,more and more library conscious. The schools are making every effort to bring together the teacher, top pupils and the librarian. In several instances a spe cial book list is set aside for the more talented students. More advanced books are or dered every two weeks and honor students encourage the more advanced students to take an active part in building up the library to assist the less gifted classmates. TRAFFIC TOLL UP London (IP) Highway accidents killed 5,550 persons in Britain last year for the highest toll since the war, the Ministry of Transport report ed today. The figure was 183 above 1956.
