LONDON. Sept. 81 (AP).-
British newspapers limited to-
day at a new romance for
Princess Margaret, but her
close friends said, Ignore it,"
The story of the friendship
between the 29-year-old Prin-
cess and Canadian lawyer John
Turner began when Margaret
visited Canada in July. 1858.
Mr.. Turner's stepfather,
John Ross, is Lieutenant Gov
ernor of British Columbia.
When Mr.. Ross and his wife
gave a ball for the Princess,
young Turner danced nearly
every set with Margaret. He
also sat out two with her.
Friendship Expands
The friendship expanded to
the romance" stage when MIR.
Turner's parents visited Scot
land less than a month ago and
his mother told reporters her
son and the Princess were good
friends.
The story ballooned into an
eight-column front-page head
line yesterday when the Empire
News said:
princess Margaret's friend
ship with 30-year-old Canadian
lawyer John Turner has been
the subject Of important dis
cussions al. Balmoral and Buck
ingham Palace r.
This was obviously intended
to mean that a possible mar
rage was under discussion.
This morning the Daily Her.
aid edged the story another
notch by saying Mr.. Turner
has made a secret visit to
see her"
Visit, But No Secret
A spokesman for Princess
Margaret said today that Mr..
Turner did visit Margaret in
London last April - but there
was nothing secret about it.
