Summary
MOVIETONE CARD TITLE: Princess Margaret Home. DESCRIPTION: Flags and buntings at Montreal’s Windsor station made a gay introduction to Princess Margaret’s welcome from the French Canadians. The younger generation took up the welcome when the Princess arrived at a Children’s Rally. At the Mount Stephen Club, the Princess wore one of the most fascinating gowns of her tour while attending a dinner. Home again and at London Airport the Queen Mother was first to go aboard the Britannia to welcome her and to congratulate her on the success of the Canadian Tour. Her Royal Highness and the Queen Mother will soon join the rest of the Royal Family in Scotland. SHOTLIST: GV party at Windsor Station, Montreal. MS same. CU Princess wipe to GV crowd.
