Elizabeth and Philip Take
Barge Trip in Australia
BY the Associated Press

SYDNEY, Australia, Feb. g.
Queen Elizabeth II and the Duke
Of Edinburgh slipped out, q side
entrance to Government House
for a day off from official en-
gagementS today. Only a hand
full of their enthusiastic Aus
tralian public caught up with
them.
The royal couple drove to the
harbor and took a barge trip to
a palatial private home on the
waterfront before lunch. Hun
dreds, meanwhile, milled about
the main entrance to Govern
ment House or followed rumors
about the pairs plans for their
holiday.
An Australian government
spokesman said the Queen had
not been "unduly worried" by her
heavy, crowd-attended schedule
of the last few days. The spokes-
man said the queen had a restful
day at the Randwick races and
at Bondi Beach Saturday. Her
only public appearance yesterday
was for church services at st.
Andrews Cathedral.
But again the summer heat
took a heavy toll among the
spectators who packed around
the cathedral and knelt on the
hot pavement. Nine hundred
persons including many children
collapsed and were given first aid
in the cathedral chapter house.
