...calls (and piling up more fines) in matches he had no chance of losing. In his semifinal match against Australia's Rod Frawley, he picked up another penalty point, screaming, "I always get robbed because of the umpires in this place." That proved too much for Lady Diana Spencer, who left the royal box halfway through the long and argument-marred match. The display cost him an additional $10,000 fine...
...ever a prince enchanted an imperial city, Britain's Prince Charles did so last week on his first visit to New York for a gala benefit in honor of the 50th anniversary of the Royal Ballet. With Lady Diana Spencer, 19, back in London preparing for the royal wedding on July 29, it was the last official jaunt to the U.S. as a bonnie bachelor for Prince Charles, 32.

Utah's Governor Scott Matheson, also a foe of the MX roadway plan, the Air Force's favorite among 35 safeguarding options, called the Mormons' opposition to the deployment of the missile "an exceptional...
...visited American shores in October 1977, he was still very much a bonnie bachelor, and his beguiling ways charmed every lass in sight. But during his four-day visit to Washington last week, the Prince kept the flirting to a fribble. He is, after all, to marry Lady Diana Spencer, 19, this summer. Charles toured the Smithsonian's National Air and Space Museum, took a trip to Williamsburg, Va., where he received an honorary degree from the College of William and Mary, and attended a small dinner party at the White House. During an Oval Office chat with President...
