ROYALTY IN DANGER-This crowd was in suspense, a moment after this picture was taken, when the coach in which King George, Queen Elizabeth and their two daughters were entering the racing park at Ascot, nearly upset, threatening a bad spill. The postillon turned too short a comer and the nigh front wheel caught on the gate post. A second attempt was mado and again the wheel caught. A third attempt was successful. The family remained calm.
