June 21, 1965


Beatle George has definite plans to marry top London fashion model Patti Boyd, 19        he revealed last night, but he added that where and when is another question. “We're not in a mad rush.

We're not engaged or anything like that.George, at 22, is the youngest of the Beatles, and was speaking in Paris after the group had flown in

to start a European tour. 


Earlier at London Airport, police, with dogs, had held back 1000 fans who turned up tsee the boys fly out.

In Paris, only about 50 people waited to see them fly in, but the 6000 seater Palais de Sport was packed

for their two concerts. Their tour will take in Lyon, Milan, Rome, Nice, Madrid, and Barcelona.


 There was midnight chaos in Paris as 1000s of teenage fans went berserk after the late-night show.

There were fights between the teenagers and the police outside the Palais de Sport, inside the 6,000-seat

arena. Seats had been smashed, blows were exchanged, and scores of gendarmes were rushed into the

stage area to prevent the fans from tearing down the barriers. It took the police 30 minutes to disperse the

fans, then, stamping and jeering, the fans exploded outside. 


Earlier this month, Paul McCartney, on holiday with his sweetheart, actress Jane Asher, said, “I'll be the

third Beatle to marry, but when I don't know.” John Lennon and Ringo Starr are already married.
