People keep asking me about what the Queen is like?

hursday, June 25, just

which ‘stated that The Master of
the-(Royal) Household had been
commanded by Her Majesty to

invitenie to a reception “to be

given. by. the Qucen and the Duke
of Edinburgh on board the HMY
Britannia June 23, at 5:30 p.m.
in Quebec City.

“Arrangements were made hur-
rledly and by noon Tuesday, June
23 I was in. Quebcc City.

Instead of secing the Qucen
onee, as I had expected, I man-
aged to see her about six. times
at fairly close range as depicted
by the Canadian Press photo-
graphs on this page, * taken by
Gilbert A. Milne, I was not far
from Milne when all these pic-
tures were taken.

_Th&®, afternoon at the Plains
of Abrahim I saw the Queen re-
view. the Royal 22nd Regiment,
ofwhich she is colonel-in-chief,

NEPBN30 ‘p.m, some 150 of us,
ow Filing, press” and  photo-
grephers “trooped aboard the
royal, yacht at Wolfe's Cove.

My” first impression of the
Queen, ‘when sti]l about six feet
away from her, was her likeness
to her mother, the Queen Mother
MNzacboth.

When face to face with Her
Majcéty, I noticed her wide smile,
her beautiful complexion, her
flawless coiffure, her Jack of
make-up. I could even sec three
iWny freckles on her cheek.

JDeouldn't swear, under oath, If
her handshake was firm or
otherwise, ns it is something you
don't analyse about n woman,

Meeting, fatting with Queen

and grected her all in the :
breath. Later, when I was re-
introduced by her ' Canadian.
aide-de-camp Esmond Butler,
whom I met in Prince Rupert
during Governor- General Vin-
eent Massey's brief visit, I merely
bowed.

The Queen asked me if I had
come 3,100 miles to join the, tour.
I told her “no” that I had come
specifically to attend her recep-
tion and was most honored. We
then chatted about her visit to
Terrace and I also extended the
greetings of the pcople of Prince
Rupert.

At approximately 6:25 p.m.'

. That was it, apart from watch-
ing Her Majesty chatting to
others for the rest of the party.

However, female admirers of
Prince Philip asked me about my
impressions of the handsome
Duke of Edinburgh.

Prince Philip is tall, lean, cer-
tainly good looking, but I’m sorry
to report his hair is getting thin
on top. He has a firm, athletic
handclasp, a’broad easy smile,a
a ready wit and is quick with his
repartee.

He kidded the photographers,
telling them he hardly recognized
them without their view-finders,

He said he favored regional;
rather than national tours buta

whether she has a

white - gloved waiters. . The
Queen’s plate was piaced before
her first, naturally, but when the
waiter offered her dessert, she
declined.

I thought of some poor chef
who had slaved over this con-
coction for weeks, hoping. it
would please the queen only to
have her refuse it.

However, she was getting ready
to make her speech and probably
wanted time to glance at it.

She spoke in ' French, spoke
well as she always does,. but a lot
-more tremulously than she did
later when opening the St. Lawr-
ence Seaway. I got-the impres-

 

sion, probably incorrect, that the
day had been too much for her

going to cry at any moment,

After the Queen’s speech and
Premier Duplessis’ address, in
which he switched to English for
the last two paragraphs, everyone
rese as the Queen left. the ball-
room.

I made a dash for the strairs I
knew she would descend and
managed to sce the Queen in her
forma] best, as pictured above,
from about 20 feet away.

I got to the lobby in time to
hear the cheers of the crowd
which packed ‘the area and then
the Queen was out of the hotel.

 

Prinee Philip looked at his watch,
said “Well, I’ve got to go take a
bath, excuse me,” and he was
gone.

Some time between the end of
the reception and the time the
royal couple left the Britannia to

 

 

 

 

attend the state dinner at the
Chatcau Frontenac, the Quern
and her husband had a differ-
ence of opinion,

She was photographed frown.
ip as she descended the gang-
plank and she is reported to have
spoken sharply to Prince Philtp,
turned to him ‘and said “hush”
and stamped her foot. She «also
told the photographers to “get

asked to be remembered to Mag-
