Princess Loses Slipper; Escort Blushes, Obliges London -flJPO-Princess Mar garet lost her slipper Wednes day night at a ball, but unlike Prince Charming, her escort was almost too embarrassed to return it. There was the pretty prin cess in a fetching strapless gown and new "Charleston" style hairdo fox trotting in the elegant Savoy hotel with bachelor Alan Godsal, high sheriff of Berkshire. He had already announced to the party that he was not a very good dancer. The prin cess is. Suddenly the awful thing that every man on a dance floor dreads happened. Off slipped his royal partner's open-toe slipper. The tnusic did not stop. ' But every one else at the Dockland Settlement ball did. Godsal turned white, then red. His pretty partner smiled ntfscjfcievously. Then came the problem of gracefully trying to locate the slipper beneath the royal skirt with decorum. Finally Godsal found it. And he slipped it on the royal foot. The slipper fit. But there the etory ended.
