But King Gustaf apparently has taken over the publicity on the romance of his six - foot - one granddaughter and that means news will be hard to get. Baron Carl-Reinhold Von Essen, master of the household of Prin- cess Sibylla, Margaretha’s mother, said “I have been re- lieved of this thing, thank God.” Robin, 25-year-old nephew of the Earl of Home, has given up piano playing and advertising writing in London and is coming here to join a printing business. He was reported to have been reminded, when he proposed last winter, that the $126 a week he made’ at both jobs could hardly support the princess in royal style.

(CP) -— Lester B, Pearson said Friday he had to admit—“though not cheerfully”—- that the attitude of the United States is one reason why Canada has not recognized Communist China but it was not the govern- ing factor. V , There were such other reasons as the controversy the issue aroused -in Canada and the atti- tude of the Pei-ping government which demanded that recognition be given its ownership of For- mosa. The I/liberal leader said he would never agree to that. ‘ He opened himself to the “in- quisition” of some 800 University of Western Ontarid students who jammed into the Convocation Hall to question the former ex- ternal, affairs minister. About 300 students had to be turned away because of a lack of seats. They lined a gallery to one _side of the hall balcony, packed a corridor outside the hall and opened the doors to hear Mr. Pearson. Some even spilled over onto the stage, slipping in from a side door. DRAWS OVATION, B008 They gave him an ovation.

Called to consider the “crisis” in education, they found after 41/2 days of spirited, critical dis- cussion on eight specific aspects of the problem, little of what they thought they had learned was reflected in the 32 generally- phrased resolutions‘ ultimately. passed. ’ The approved recommenda- tions were for higher _federal grants fqr universities, techno- logical institutes and adult edu- cation, federal-provincial grants for handicapped children, simi- lar payments towards the eradi- cation of education inequalities and equalization grants by the provinces to ensure equal educa- tion ‘opportunities within their own areas. _ ' WOULD, LIST" HANDICAPPED Provincial registries of handi- capped children were recom- mended, as were uniform statis- tics on education, the establish- ment of a National Organization for the Protion of Educational Research, and’ a national com- mittee, to be set up by the;Privy to promote basic re- search into_ the “physical, engi- neering and life sciences.

A shortage of teachers quali- fied to take French classes was considered by conference offi- cials to render the resolution on secondary language instruction equally ineffective in the short term. “But as declarations of.prin- ciple, both ideas were considered important.

N0 BASIC ANSWERS , Apart from a watered-down resolution advocating “equal op- ‘ portunities in eication for all Canadian children,” the confer- ence produced nothing in answer to what had been a fundamental question-—the kind‘ of education needed for’ intelligent citizens, regardless of level, in the ad- vancing space era. The conference working paper spelled it out precisely: “What sort of person—in broad general term-s—-do we want our educa- tional institutions to try to pro- duce, regardless of the academic level at which formal education is terminated?” Neither was education for lei- sure, in the light of increasing automation‘ and earlier retire.- ment, reflected. The role of the home was dragged’ in as an after-thought in ,a “safe” resolu- tion presented from the floor. ‘ Conference offiicals said while the pointswere thoroughly dis- ‘cussedthe groups either forgot to send forwa-rdresolutions, or else made them so vague and wordy that the essential thought was indistinguishable. .
