...Riyadh prison; if he is judged mentally competent, he will probably be executed by decapitation, according to Saudi tradition. Reports from California and Colorado, where the prince had been a university student, described him as a quiet, likable, notably unstudious young man who had once been arrested in Boulder for selling LSD and hashish. To his blonde former girl friend, sometime Movie Actress (Bite of the Co bra) Christine Surma, 26, an ambitious young woman who also bills herself "the country's only female auctioneer," the prince was a "perfect gentleman" who was proud of his family...
...beloved and popular a native operatic soprano as Brooklyn-born Beverly Sills. The Sills phenomenon stems mainly from her unmatched musical and theatrical skills. But it helps that what she has, she flaunts-tirelessly. This season is typical. Sills will give recitals in such cities as Syracuse, Boulder, and Birmingham, Ala. She will also appear as soloist with orchestras in Miami Beach, Houston, and Evansville, Ind., sing Lucia di Lammermoor with opera companies in Milwaukee and Omaha, star at the San Francisco Opera and visit Los Angeles with her home company, the New York City Opera...
...HAMPSHIRE. Obdurate as a boulder of New Hampshire granite, Republican Governor Meldrim Thomson, 62, conducted his primary campaign as though he had never heard of the 20th century.

What's more, Nixon, no kin to the ex-President...
...Ridder papers include such varied properties as the Journal of Commerce, a useful if pork-belly plain compendium of business news; Colorado's folksy Boulder Daily Camera (circ. 22,380); and the St. Paul Pioneer Press and Dispatch, which occasionally outshines its bigger Twin City sisters. In general, however, the Ridder papers do not have the heft and influence of the Knight dailies. Though the Knight brothers are both conservatives, the papers are what Hills describes as "central progressive." In the 1972 election six Knight papers endorsed Richard Nixon and two backed George McGovern; only two echoed John Knight...
Died. Edward Uhler Condon, 72, the distinguished nuclear physicist who became a target of postwar Red-baiters; of heart disease; in Boulder, Colo. Condon's experiments in 1943 on the separation of U-235 were instrumental in the development of the atomic bomb. In 1945 he was named head of the National Bureau of Standards. Three years later, despite loyalty clearances by two Government agencies, he was branded "one of the weakest links in our atomic security" by the House Un-American Activities Committee. The specific charge-a flimsy one-was that Condon had associated socially with Eastern European...
