Nov. 8-(AP)—Prin- cess Elizabeth's wedding gown- about the biggest secret around creation that likely will knock the word "austerity" right out of the Royal vocabulary. I saw the skirt of the dress and some sketches of the whole thing at a private preview today in de- signer Norman‘ l-Isrtnells swank fashion salon. l-Iartnell has had about 40 of his seamstresses work- ing on the Royal trousseau for weeks. The piece of the dress was un- der a glass case in Hartneifs pri- vate office and the oflice windows were draped as though for ablack- out to thwart fashion spies.‘ Every neyvspaper representative who got into the place was screen- ed. All had to sign’ written promises to be discreet about the whole business until the day of the wed- ding, because the Princess doesn't want every fashion shop to have models of her dresses in the win- dows before she even gets to wear them herself, 17 days from now. So my lips are sealed, as they say. But if anybody tells you the Princess is going to be justa plain Jane when she walks the middle aisle over the tombs in Westmin- ster Abbey, he’s wrong.
