Marriage of Marie Jose
Reduces Royal Field
to Eight.
BY PRINCESS ALI FAZIL
United Press Staff Correspondent
PARIS, Jan. 9.—One by one the
princesses of Europe, eligible to
share the throne of the British
kingdom with the prince of Wales,
are marrying and the prince makes
no move to find himself a bride. 1 >.e
field now has been reduced to eight,
with the marriage Wednesday- of
Belgium’s pretty Princess Marie
Jose.
The marriage at Rome hardly was
concluded beiore the chancellories
busily were buzzing with gossip
about the next royal marriages of
Europe, and it is agreed generally
that shortly Wales will |nd his field
reduced by another wedding to
seven, when Princess Juliana Emma
of Holland marries a Teuton prince.
The field, as it stands now. still is
open, without odds, but with plenty
of choice:
Beatrice of Spain, 20, a fine dan
cer and brunette.
Marie-Christine of Spain, 18, one
of the best-dressed princesses.
Ileana of Rumania, 20, blonde,
taller than the prince and a real
beauty.
Juliana Emma of Holland, 20,
blonde and buxom.
Giovanna of Italy, 22, coal-black
hair; her mind Is set on the Bulgar
ian throne.
Ingrid of Sweden, 19, a tall blonde
and socially popular.
Eudoxia of Bulgaria, 31, very
domestic and caretaker of the im
perial palace for her bachelor
brother Boris.
Hilda of Luxembourg, 32, last
remaining spinster sister of Char
lotte. blonde and a very fine cook.
Charlotte, blonde and a very fine
cook.
The prince of Wales can find
plenty of diversity of choice in that
field, but if there were any odds
offered, many observers in the chan
celleries would place their stakes on
Ingrid of Sweden. There have been
many ties in the past between the
British throne snd the imperial
families of Scandinavia.
There are religious reasons why a
marriage hardly Is probable between
Wales and the Italian and Spanish
princesses, all strong Roman Cath
olics, and Ileana and Eudoxia, or
thodox Catholics.
