OFF, SPORTS CAR SOLD

London.

ALTHOUGH he possesses only £4 and the clothes

he is wearing, the Tungku Mahmud of Treng- ganu is determined to marry blonde, pretty, twenty- year-old Joyce Blencowe, chiropodist daughter of an Oxford tailor.

"I have no intention of going home without Joyce, who is willing to give up everything in Eng- land to live with me in Malaya, and nothing will stand in the way of our marriage," the Tungku told the Sunday Times in a special interview at Oxford.

Oxford friends with whom the Tungku is staying allege that the Crown Agents have not only cut off his allowance but also have sequestered and sold his big sports car.

Joyce's father and mother have been most strongly op- posed to the match since the engagement was privately an- nounced in February.

It is alleged that the Tungku Mahmud, who has been studying in England, Is being shadowed by pri- vale deteclives in Oxford, and n reporter found diMculty in inter- viewing him until the Tungku was convinced he was not a detective.

"I love him quite a lot," was all Joyce would say about the

I went to the Customs House in Lower Thames-street, London.

When I mentioned smuggling the subject was passed off with a shrug. "Quite a minor part of our work," and an official.

I talked of alien smuggling and he told me that it was no affair of the Customs department. "That's for the Home Offee, he added.

The Home Office, 1 discovered, had heard of alien smuggling. I was told that there is a sort of aggree- Hient between the Customs, Imml- gration and local police authorities to deal with the matter.
