WEDDING DRAWS ROYALTY | 5,000 Troops and Police to Be on Duty at Ceremony Tomorrow. By the Associated Press. ASSISI, Italy, October 24.—Kings and commoners, statesmen and hawk- . ers, soldiers and priests converged on this little city today in anticipation ~ of the marriage tomorrow of Princess | Giovanna, third daughter of the Italian King, to Czar Boris III of Bulgaria. Prior to the ceremony a royal train bearing the bride and groom, King Victor Emanuel, Queen FElena and others attending them will arrive from and San Rossore., After the | ceremony Boris and Gioyanna will leave for a short Adriatic honeymoon prior | to a second ceremony at Sofia. Roman Catholic Ceremony. The Roman Catholic ceremony here 1s by special dispensation of the Pope, who is permitting Glovanna to marry Boris, of the Greek orthodox faith, . with the proviso that their children be hi up as Rcman Catholics and that there be no succeeding Greek orthodox marriage cerzmony which might be construed as having becn rec- gnlmd by the Vatican. Because of ese stipulations it is regarded as prob- able that the Sofia ceremony will be little more than a ceremonicus regis- tration of the marriage. A last-minute rearrangement will permit the ceremony to be held in the so-called Upper Church of St. Francis, instead of the Lower Basilica, on which | it is superimposed. Princess’ Giovanna | had hoped to be married in the lower | church, in which is the sarcophagus | containing the remains of St. Francis of Assisi. The change was made be- cause of the larger upper auditorium. An expert squad of traffic policemen from Rome has been imported to han- dle tomorrow's traffic—which will con- sist principally of the royal automobiles, since all others are to be kept off the Streets from the time the royal party | . arrives until it leaves. Altogether there | about 5,000 troops and police here | the occasion. 35 Princes, Princesses to Attend. ‘Besides King Victor Emanuel and P Princess Giovanna, daughter of the King and Queen of Xtaly, and King Boris of Bulgaria, whose marriage) tomorrow in A“lsl strengthens the friend ship between two nations.
