Princely Hobbies. Even a prince may become a busi ness man. So says the Prince of Asturias, King Alfonso's eldest son and heir apparent. This statement quickly dis- pelled all gossip and rumours that he was looking for a bride when he recently visited England. "I am in Eng- land to buy Yorkshire pigs," said the Prince. The Span- ish heir to the throne owns a gigantic pig farm at El Pardo and is responsible for the introduction of bacon into his country. The Prince's interest in pigs seems to indicate that it is a more enjoyable pastime than looking around for a wife. Unlike the Prince of Wales, "Alfon- sito" is not at all secretive about his marriage plan. "Father and mother think there is plenty of time," he said. Moreover, I am far too busy with my pigs to think of girls." Although the Prince of Wales is rumour- ed engaged to every new girl he dances with, he finds time to buy up all sorts of up-to-date musical in- strumenta-banjos, ukuleles and saxophones.
