HOneymOoners
Spend Night
At Anchor

WILLIE FRANCHE SUR-MER,
France, R = Grace Kelly and
Prince Rainier III resumed their
Mediterranean honeymoon cruise
this morning after a wedding
night aboard his yacht anchored
less than 10 miles from Monte
Carlo.
The Dec Juvante II sailed out
with much fanfare yesterday
after the religious ceremony COM
pleting the nuptials of Monaco's
32-year-old ruler and the 26-year-
old film star from Philadelphia.
Choppy seas were encountered
and the 138-foot yacht-28 feet
longer than a Navy subchaser =
cruised back to anchor in the
harbor of Vile Franche Sur-Mer
for the night.
RumorS floated about that the
reigning prince of Monaco and his
new princess had come ashore to
spend the night at his villa at
nearby Cap Jean-St. Ferrat. But
newsmen who maintained an all
night vigil on shore and fisher
men plying the harbor of Vile
Franche agreed no one left the
yacht after it dropped the hook.
Shortly after 9 am. the gleam-
ing white 300-ton craft weighed
anchor and headed east over
CLASSY calm sea.
From the shore, no movement
was visible aboard the ship. On
board the yacht are Grace and
Rainier, crew of II and Oliver,
the brides 2-year-old French
poodle.
The itinerary for the two-week
honeymoon is Economically vague.

Tuesday Primary Will Give Alaskans
Their First Chance to Voice Preference
For The Presidential Nominations

JUNEAU, lR - Alaskans, who
don't have a vote for President,
will get chance for the first time
for the nominations.
Tuesday to voice their preferences
The names of Adlai Stevenson
and Estes Kefauver will be on the
Democratic preferential primary
ballot. President Eisenhower and
Sen. William F. KnoWland will be
on the Republican.
All the names were put on the
ballot by Alaskan supporters.
Consent of a candidate was not
required.
The main interest will be in the
Kefauver-Stevenson contest. Mel

paign, but both have proved pop
ular on previous visits.
National interest in the terri
tory's elections has been increased
in recent years by the accuracy
of the northerners' political adage
GAS Alaska goes, so goes the
nation"
The preference primary = part
of a long and involved ballot on
candidates and issues-is being
held for the first time under an
act of the 1855 legislature.
The presidential preference bal
lot also includes candidates for
national committee members, so
each voter will have to ask for
the Republican or Democratic bal
lot. Presumably it will check the

party in an attempt to help or
sink a favorite.
Alaska's delegation to the DEM
Ocratic national convention leans
toward Stevenson. The 1852 dele
cation stuck steadfastly to the
Kefauver banner, but a poll of
the delegation this year shows six
delegates with half a vote each)
favoring Stevenson. The others
declined to list a preference.
Returns from the polls will be
slow. They close at 8 pm. but
the territory stretches across three
time zones. The count will be
delayed by the most complicated
series of issues in territorial cleo
ton history. There will be four
sets of ballots.
The ballots also cover candi-

The educational crisis in st.
lCroix was intensified further
when the teachers whose jobs
are in jeopardy-Miss Melba
ICanegata; Miss Bernice Moor
head and Uric Benjamin
were offered compensation in
view of the pressure being put
on the Education office by
public opinion.
Miss Canegata was inform-
led that she would be retained
until Mrs. Naomi Moorhead
returned from her vacation in
California. Miss Bernice Moor
head and Mr.. Benjamin were
offered positions in to the
School, with the
verbal promise that they
would be transferred to the
High School as positions be-
came vacant.
The situation however, does
not only affect the three teach
ers in question but the entire
faculty, who would be asked
to carry an impossible load,
and ultimately the student
body who would be without
teachers, The present situa-
ton merely accentuates the
fact that St. Croix has no ba-

Oils Lead Way
AS Stocks Rise
To New Peaks

NEW YORK, Mar. % (P).-
The stock market advanced to-
day, but the burden of the rise
in the early afternoon was on
the oils.
The advance took the market
to another in series of new
record highs. making it four new
peaks out of five sessions this
week.
Prices were up around 3 points
at the best, with most of the
big gamers in the oil division.
There were plenty of minus signs
in the list. but they usually were
fractional.
The higher prices brought out
a lot of spirited buying, and
trading hit a swift pace around
3 million shares for the day.
That compares with 2,650.00O
shares traded yesterday when
the market touched a new record
high.
Railroads, which gave the
greatest push to yesterdays
advance, started out higher to-
day, but they faltered under
profit taking and subsidized into
a mixed position.
Rubbers, aircrafts, utilities,
and most of the non-ferrous
metals were higher with the oils.
The rest of the market. including
motors and steels, were mixed.
At noon, the Associated Press
average of so stocks was up 80
cents at Sl90.50. 1t advanced
$1.70 on the day yesterday to a
new record high.
Corporate bonds were irregu-
lar. United States Government
