THERE'LL BE A NEW BABY AT THE PALACE If the new baby expected by Princess Grace and Prince Rainier isn't a boy, I bet she keeps on having children until a son is born, heaven willing. When she married the Prince, Grace said she wanted a big family. You can bet your piggy-bank that she has no intention of returning to motion pictures. This she affirmed personally to her good friend and mine, Rupert Allan. He's the charming public relations man at MGM, who had been summoned to Europe by Grace several weeks ago. When I learned Rupert was making the trip I had a strong hunch that Grace wanted him there to make the public announcement that she and Rainier were 'expecting' again. And, sure enough, that was true. Rupert had joined Their Serene Highnesses in Switzerland just previous to the time they returned to the palace at Monaco for the official announcement, and he wrote me a long letter: '3oth Grace and the Prince have profited by their Swiss vacation here in these beautiful Alps near where the Prince went to school as a boy. They are so rested and happy. Of course, little Princess Caroline is the apple of their eye and there is big excitement over her cutting her first teeth.

Through the Juarez. Mexico marriage registry, I discovered that they had been married on September 17th by Judge De La Fuente. Two Mexican attorneys, one representing Sophia and the other Ponti, stood in for the bride and groom. Ponti's attorney is the same who obtained a divorce for him by proxy a few weeks ago. This is the first marriage for Sophia and she has been in love with Ponti for some years. It was through his pictures that she first became known as Italy's leading actress. tiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimiiiiiniiiuiiiiiiiiiiii iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiniiiiiiiiiiiiw n 19
