EGYPT: Boy Wanted
The one thing that wealthy, willful King Farouk of Egypt most wants is a male heir. His first Queen and childhood sweetheart, Farida, failed him: after three children, all girls, he divorced her. Last spring, Farouk married a teen-age cutie, 18-year-old Narriman Sadek, a commoner. Last week the Cairo newspaper Al Balagh, talking coyly to avoid censorship, announced that "the happy event anxiously awaited by the people of Egypt is expected to take place towards the end of this month or early in February."
