Church Dedication

a romantic new church is be-
ing laid III Neuilly-on-the-
Seine at the same time. about
$3.50 pm. Paris time. Exactly
TOO years ago, on June 10, 1856.
King Louis TX and his sister
Isabelle posed the first stone of
the Abbey of Longchamp on
the same spot. 1t was a pious
project they'd planned with
their mother, Blanche of Cas-
tile, before her death.
A few yards and a bit more
than 500 years away the
brother-in-law of Marie An
toinette built Bagatelle for her
IN only months time so she'd
have a place to rest on the trip
from the Louvre Palace in
Paris to Versailles. Much later
Longchamp became famous as
a race track. a far cry from
the original sacred association.
This new church will be
dedicated to st. Isabelle, the
princess who. like her kingly
brother. became a saint. The
two most famous residents of
the parish of the new st. Isa-
bellies are unlikely to attend
services. One is the Ali Khan,
a Moslem god, and the other is
the Duke of Windsor, once
temporal head of the Church
of England.

A Wedding Suggested
The Aga Khan denies it,
Iranian law forbids it, but
romantics have it figured out
that all Empress Soraya's
problems will be ironed out if
only her step-daughter mar

the ravishingly beautiful Iran
ian-German Soraya has no
children at all. The Shah is
said not to wish to repeat his
Empress-repudiating stunt and
is looking for a solution to
avoid doing so. The adolescent
Princess Shahinaz is very
pretty, showing promise of the
extraordinary beauty of her
mother, Fawzia. She is quite
EuropeaniZed and actually
does have a healthy crush on
Prince Sadruddin Khan.
Now %, he is finishing at
Harvard. Thus far his ro-
mantle career has been I'M
spectacular, bearing no re-
semblance to those of his ia
ther and elder brother. If
Saddri can tear himself away
from his preference for Grace
Kelly types, rather on the Or
der of his own French mother,
a marriage with the Shah's
daughter could be an excellent
idea for him and for the dy-
nasty he might be called upon
to carry on instead of Prince
Ali. The Aga Khan's grand
mother was a daughter CT a
Shah of Persia. The present
Shah granted him the status
of royal highness in 1949.
1t would make of Prince Sad

Edinburgh.
