It was confirmed this week by Dr. Author E. Hughes, president of the Univer- sity of San Diego t t His Royal Highness Prince Sattam Bin Abdlaziz AI-Saud, son of Ibn Saud, the founder of Saudi Arabia, would be the first USD alumnus to receive an honorary doctor of laws degree at the USD commencement ceremonies May 25. This confirmation came before the death this week of his brother, King Faisal, and the announcement that another brother, Crown Prince Khaled Ibn Abdul Aziz, 62, has replaced King Faisal. University offi- cials expect that His Royal Highness will attend as announced and that possibly his wife, Her Highness Shekkah, will accom- pany him. In that event, the visit will be nostalgic for the young couple. His Royal Highness Prince Sattam, now 34, and Her Highness lived in an apartment across from USO for two years when His Royal Highness was working toward his bachelor of science degree in business administration at the university. He was graduated from USD in 1965. His Royal Highness, a member of the powerful Family Council, is presently dep- uty governor of Riyadh, the winter capital of Saudi Arabia. President Ford has been invited to par- ticipate in the commencement ceremony but no confirmat10n of his attendance has been received. . There are 15 Saudi Arabian students now studying al USO. His Royal Highness Prince Sattam and Her Highness have intimate friends in San Diego, including the Rt. Rev. Msgr. I. Brent Eagen, pastor of the ¼ission San Diego de Alcala, and '.\1rs. Philip W. Nacozy, widow of a USO professor of political sience. Mrs. Nacozy is now vi.sit- ing the royal couple and children in Saudi abia

Diplomatic problem :2. 7/7-;;- V There' s a delicate diplomatic problem which could develop over the three invited to receive honorary degrees at the graduation ceremonies of the University of San Diego . If President Ford accepts , he will be seated, presumably, alongside the other rec ipients , entertainer Vikki Carr and Prince Sattam Al Saud of Saudi Arabia. And that makes an interesting Arab -U.S. relat1onsh1p at a time when things are , as ever , touchy in the Middle East . - ~-------
