RoyoI Wedding
At least five Washingtonians
Mrs. Mesta, Mrs. Trux-
tun Beale, Nine. Julia Bram-
billa and the Andre Wis
sons-have received invita-
tions to the royal wedding
that will flood Portugal with
purple this week. Ex-King
Umberto of Italy, who's so
handsome and loaded with
charm the women here all
rave about him, and his Queen
Maria Jose will see their
daughter Princess Maria Pia
di Savoia marry on Saturday.
The lucky fellow whose rank
makes matrimony thinkable is
the Duchess of Kent's nephew,
Prince Alexander Of Yugo-
saliva. Their wedding is the
climax of a romance that be-
gan on that famous cruise OF
100 royal persons that King
Paul and Queen Frederika OF
Greece organized last sum-
mer. It just goes to show.
there's nothing like a cruise,
girls!
Even though he's partly re-
sponsible, King Paul can't go
to the wedding, nor King Bau-
doin of Belgium, though he's
one of the best men. They
have never paid an official
visit in Portugal so it seems
that protocol says nix.
But all the royalty who can
be there will witness the noon
ceremony in the little Fish
ers' Church" in Cascais, Portu-
gal, where Umberto makes his
home. His wife. the daughter
of the late King Albert of Bel
gium, lives in Switzerland so
she can have the constant help
of a noted eye specialist, but
apparently the King can't live
in Switzerland and isn't sup
posed to 60 there for more
than two weeks at a time.
For the blueblooded gather
ing in the little church. the
women have been instructed
to wear long dresses and hats;
the men, jackets tight (cut-
aways) and decorations. It's
too bad the whole kit and ka-
Doodle couldn't take place
here. The only thing the
Washington season lacks is a
good high-f1own, ermine-
coated, satin-splashed ro-
nance.
