...city a handsome villa on the edge of the Bois de Boulogne, where Charles de Gaulle lived as Premier just after World War II. Now it is filled with the superb and costly bibelots that the duke inherited from his ancestors.

In February or March, the Windsors sail for New York, where they rent...

Last year he spent about $150,000 to have Gretel rebuilt for another try, but that came to nought (TIME, January 27) when a brand new Aussie challenger, Dame Pattie, convincingly trounced Gretel in a series of shakedown races off Sydney.
