...Other Prince. Thrifty Dutchmen also noted disapprovingly that Beatrix, the richest heiress on the Continent,* picked a fiance with no private fortune. Son of an impoverished Prussian Junker, Von Amsberg worked his way through the University of Hamburg and up through the German Foreign Service to an administrative post in Bonn. Known to fellow diplomats as a Streber (go-getter), he is fond of fast cars-though an aging Porsche is all he can afford on a $400-a-month government salary. Thus, in many ways he resembles the penniless German princeling and junior executive who married Juliana...
Born. To Kevin McClory, 41, Irish movie producer, latest of the Bondsmen (Thunderball), and Fredericka Ann ("Bobo") Sigrist, 25, heiress to the Hawker-Siddeley aircraft fortune: their second child, a daughter (she also has a daughter by First Husband Gregg Juarez, with whom she eloped at 17); in Dublin...
Died. Ethel du Pont Roosevelt Warren, 49, shy, handsome daughter of the late Du Pont Director Eugene, great-great-granddaughter of Company Founder Eleuthere Irenee and heiress to a $5 million share in the chemical fortune, whose spectacular 1937 marriage to Franklin Delano Roosevelt Jr. (among the 1,300 guests: some 600 Du Ponts, 200 Roosevelts, President F.D.R., virtually the entire U.S. Cabinet) brought a lasting truce between the two bitterly warring families, but was itself a failure ending in a 1949 divorce, after which she embarked on another unhappy marriage, grew increasingly depressed and spent frequent periods in rest...
...horror of hallucinogens, where one feels the vomit recede back down the throat through massive pressure from neck muscles. The Valentino Dream of sexual power gone wild as Rojack somersaults with the maid while his wife's corpse empties its intestines on the upstairs rug; the Dream of the Heiress polluted by Deborah's guileful malevolence; The Alger Dream of self-made empires gone rotten in her father's diabolic machinations; The Westerner Dream of the loner on the borderlines of society perverted now by the company he must keep; The Dreams of the Con Man, The Urban Gangster...
...still-wriggling survivors include Robertson, himself a former beach bum now employed full time as the husband of Heiress Lana Turner. Having discarded poor Billy along with last season's swimming suit, Lana naturally feels a smidgen of guilt. Billy's prim fiancee (Stefanie Powers) takes it rather hard too. She arrives from Detroit in very low spirits, but soon slips into something more comfortable, persuaded by Cliff that thinking up answers for a lively lover easily beats asking questions about a defunct beau...
