Royalty to Get Jolt When
British Lady WEEDS Jockey
BY MILTON BRONNER

LONDON, Marcn l9.-Lady Ur-
sula Grosvenor, elder daughter of
the Duke of Westminster, is going
to marry J. R. Anthony, famous
steeplechase jockey.
Behind this simple announcement
lies the story of socially revolution
lied England in which the kings
children marry "commoners" instead
Of foreign sprigs of royalty; in which
earl's heirs marry actresses, and the
whole caste system Great Britain is
turned topsy-turvy.
There have been dukes daughters
before who have married outside
their caste, but never have they been
as young and pretty as Lady Ursula.
She celebrated her twenty-first birth
day only a few weeks ago, is a fair,
tail girl with plenty of brains.
She has never cared for the regu-
lar society stuff, preferring outdoor
life She is a fearless horsewomah,
rides astride and goes in for sport of
all kinds. 1t was this that brought
about her close friendship and finally
love for Anthony.
The latter is the best steelechase
Jockey in the world. He only be-
came professional in 1920 Com
ing from a horse-breeding family, he
has virtually lived in the saddle all
his days. He has won three grand
national steeplechases and last year
topped the list of jockeys over the
Jumps with IS wins. he and all mis-
brothers had good records during the
war, one being killed in action.
Their romance was not without it's
obstacles, Lady Ursulas's father be-
ling against the match. So the young
lady simply waited until she was OF
age and mistress of her own hand
and fortune, which latter is quite
considerable

A quarter of a million people, it is

dozen trust companies, and several
recent financial landslides.
Boston proper has 748,060 popu-

Remedial legislation is urged by

committee charges that gambling in
foreign exchange runs into the mil

portant new irrigation work is about
to be undertaken by the Egyptian
government on the Blue Nile. The
construction of a reservoir at Djebel
Aoulia will aid Egypt in cultivating
almost any quantity of rice; will
abolish the rotations concerning

will improve the uncultivated areas.
Experts in the Egyptian irrigation
service believe that the reservoir will
