Queen Elizabeth on U S trip ends in Seattle visit
In Seattle the 56 year old monarch wrapped up a rain drenched 10 day U S tour with a seven minute address at the University of Washington. She spoke on international cooperation to meet technology driven human problems and the evolving world economy. The queen and Prince Philip then sailed toward Canada aboard the royal yacht Britannia. In Seattle she attended a convocation, met officials, visited Children’s Orthopedic Hospital, toured the 1962 World’s Fair site, and rode a monorail before greeting 4 000 at the Seattle Center. She accepted gifts including pink rhododendrons for her grandson. Meanwhile in Illinois, Tennessee Williams' brother Dakin Williams announced plans to contest the writer’s will, seeking more than \$25 000, arguing his role in aiding Williams. The bulk of the estate reportedly goes to the Institute of Arts and Letters for Indigent Writers in New York.

ROME prominent British composer Sir William Walton died today at his Ischia home. He was 80. His widow Lady Susana Walton relayed the news to friends in London.

He also wrote notable concertos and symphonies and collaborated with stars like Hindemith Heifetz and Piatigorsky. The couple settled in Ischia after marrying in 1948.
