Leopold is a tall blond, less vig- orous than the powerful father who could bend an iron bar in his |hands, but is active, quick-think- {ing and mechanically-minded.

Knows Country’s Lore Those qualities fit the ruler of an industrial nation like Belgium. So, too, his knowledge of French and Flemish literature, philosophy and history qualifies him to under- stand his bi-lingual people. ©One of his hobbies is entomology. A 1932 trip took him to the East; Indies and the Philippines, where he went butterfly hunting on Pala-l wan Island, habitat of a species| with @ 10-inch wingspread. He is! also an enthusiastic fisherman in |summer and a skiier in winter. In the United States he saw Ni- agara’ Falls, visited Woodrow Wil-| son’s sick chamber, watched south-| western Indian dances, marveled' at California's big trees and, Cincinnati, said he wished he knew how to shoot craps.
