In Santiago, Chile, where Their Royal Highnesses were shortly expected, a Mrs. Leo Welch, native of St. Louis, Mo. stated that in Uruguay four years ago "the Prince of Wales said I was one of the best dancers he had ever known. He invited me to a supper party, but I said: 'My fiance has just come from Buenos Aires and I wouldn't want to come without him.'
" 'By all means bring him along,' said the Prince, 'I have never had such a specific request made in connection with an invitation of mine before. I admire you and him.' "
Admirable Leo Welch is manager in Santiago for the National City Bank.
