...smashing her knee. Still, she arrived in time to handle an interview and a painful curtsy to young Carl XVI Gustaf. Some rulers were unavailable. Since the Lockheed scandal, beleaguered Queen Juliana and Prince Bernhard of The Netherlands see no member of the press. Norway's sailor King Olav, 72, never gives formal interviews. TIME'S Dag Christensen, also a sailor, saw him recently on the water, where he failed to give Olav's red sloop Bingo right of way on the Oslofjord, and earned an icy glare from his monarch...

In 1960, as he was preparing to go on to graduate school, a friend encouraged him to run for the state legislature. He did and won, several times. By 1969, at the age of 30, he was the youngest returning member of the house. But he had accumulated enough experience and respect from his colleagues to be elected minority leader. In 1972, he became speaker of the house. The job entitles him to a $700-a-year raise, but in order to support his wife...
Born. To Crown Prince Harald of Norway, 36, son of King Olav V, 70, and a great-great-grandson of Britain's Queen Victoria; and Crown Princess Sonja, 36, a dress merchant's daughter who married Harald in 1968 in spite of King Olav's opposition: their second child, a hoped-for prince; in Oslo...
