Alumni of Choir To Sing
In Concert Monday Evening
An unusual feature of Med-

December 22, also will present
the symphony orchestra to the
general public for the first
time this year. This group of
70 young musicians has shown
steady growth in both number
and quality, and is now con
sidered one of the finest high
school orchestras in the state,
the school reports.
John Drysdale 8 conductor
of the group.
Also appearing on the pro
gram are the girls' choruses,

rather unusual and interesting
old English verse, the director
states. The music has the
freshness and originality of
the modern British composer,
and is shown in his opera.

sing, as well as the popular
White Christmas
No admission will be
charged, and the public is cor
dially invited to attend.

The book, "Flowers of the

tography by Roy Goin and
Paul Genereux, has been do
nated to the Jackson County

interesting stories of the flow

tivation, and adventures of
the men and women who have
spread .their beauty through
out many lands.
The selection of "Flowers

By ROBERT MUSEL
United Press International
London - (UPD - The year
1959 will be one of decision
for Princess Margaret. On
August 21, she will enter her
30th year.
If she is not engaged or
married by then and the
chances are that she won't
be she will be regarded
by practically everyone in
these sceptred isles as a spin
ster. '
Already, the little princess
is being referred to as such
in circles close to the royal
court. These people have be
lieved for some time that be
cause of the dearth of eligible
men in her age group the
sister of Queen Elizabeth will
never marry.
This belief is coupled with
the cheerless argument that
spinsterhood for royal prin
cesses is not the same as for
ordinary people. It is pointed
out for example the Princess
Victoria, sister of King
George V, managed to live
a full and important life as
a spinster.
As though to bear out this
argument Princess Margaret
is seemingly being guided to
more significant public duties.
Her overseas tours to the
West Indies Africa and Can
ada have given her an aware
ness of the Commonwealth
and the duties of the Crown
toward it. If she passes 30
unmarried it is possible she
may be given a governor
generalship.
But Britons would much
rather that the tiny (five-foot)
princess fall in love, marry
and raise a family. They have
followed her escorts for years
and there has been much dis
appointment at the breakfast
tables as first one then an
other eligible married else
where. Few princesses in modern
times could have had so many
chances the rich Earl of
Dalkeith, the handsome Lord
Ogilvy, the dashing Earl of
Westmoreland, the gay Duke
of Rutland, Lord Portchester,
the Marquess of Blandford,
Lord Carnegie the list is
long. All briefly appeared in
the spotlight with her, and
departed.
Escorts Not Prospects
Now only two or three reg
ular, escorts are still about
and 'they, are . not marital
prospects, according to court
circles.' Chief among them is
millionaire Billy Wallace who
has not been in good health
for a long time.
If the Princess does find a
mate it will probably be some
one she does not know now,
or knows only casually. Possi
bly a much older man.
There remains Group Cap
tain Peter Towndsend with
whom she was once in love.
Buckingham Palace sources
say that marriage with Town
send is out of the question
and, in any event, the Prin
cess is no longer in love with
him.
The Princess' public en
gagements for 1959 have not
deacon; S. W. Burrill, chap
lain; Glenn R. Burrill, mar
shal; Earl Sheppard, senior
steward; William Ducker,
junior steward; Ray Briggs,
tyler.

She is eager to visit the
United States but it is doubt

year.
In between her many pub
lic engagements, the Princ
ess still like parties and night
clubs. She has many dancing
companions, as distinct from
marriage eligibles, and occa
sionally goes out with some
of her married friends.
The prospect of approach

seem to disturb the Princess.
