Those who saw the attractive princess were not disappointed, Norman Ferguson., Exeter, a driver at the ME section at RCAF Station Centralia, appears to have been the only local per- son who attended the festival performance of "A Winter's Tale" which the Princess saw. "It was a thrilling experience," he said, "I was sitting just above. her in the balcony and could see her throughout the play. She seemed to enjoy it." • "She smiled at everybody. The crowd in the theatre . gave her a great handclap when she appeared on the stage and waved." Mr. Ferguson drove two RCAF officers to theplayand was able to attend himself when a third party was not able to he pre- sent. His two girls were even more thrilled than he when they learn- ed he'd seen the princess. Pat- ricia, 12. and Doris, 6, cried: "Gee, dad! 'Were you really in the same building as 'Princess Margaret?". OPP Constable Cecil Gibbons, one of 300 .policemen: who helped ef to control crowds, described the princess as "very nice", He didn't agree, with others that she looked, tired but he said it was obvious that "she had been having a busy time .of it." Jean Taylor, of Exeter, who watched the procession, was sur- prised at. the small. stature of the Queen's sister. "I knew she was small but I didn't realize she was quite so small as she really Mr. and Mrs. W. C. Foster, who had a "first class" view of the princess during the parade, thought "she was wonderful — she really was." Mr. Foster was sure the princess even gave him a special. smile. "I was wearing a flag in my hat arid Cin sure she recognized me," he said. Among the 100 photographers who scrambeld for pictures of the princess at Stratford were Jack Doerr, Exeter, who repre- sented The Times:Advocate, and George Noseworthy, for Grand Bend Holiday and The Centralia Coronet. "Vmamazed at how tiny she is." said June Steeper of Park. hilL "She's very lovely and her gown was exquisite but we all thought she. looked tired." It was 5:50 Thursday afternoon when the petite princess, a visimi in filmy ice -blue sheer, descend. ed from the Royal Train.

Her hat was the same shade of blue, made of stiffened net and she wore a double strand of pearls, white gloves and slender heeled toeless shoes in a neutral shade. Her bag was white and she had a gold chain bracelet over her left glove. As she descended from the train it was obvious that the heavy Toronto schedule earlier that clay had taken its, toll. In spite of expertly applied makeup her eyes were weary, there was a tautness in her facial muscles, a dignity in her un- smiling poise, as she stood mo- tionless while the CNR band played The Queen.
