Donald Date: Was Donald Trump out on the town with a new woman the same weekend he and Marla Maples broke their engagement? The Daily News quotes Kim Alley, a 21-year-old model from Richmond, Va., as saying that she partied with The Donald into the wee hours last Saturday morning. The two met at a party Friday night, and the next thing she knew she was in Trump’s chauffeur-driven limousine. Alley described Trump as “very funny,” “a very good dancer” and “a good kisser.”
* Ducking Into Office: Donald Duck was the winner among the odd parties that received protest votes in last week’s general elections in Stockholm. But then “Dallas” TV star Cliff Barnes, hockey star Borje Salming and musician Frank Zappa also had support. Swedes can either use printed ballots with official candidates or write in an alternate. The odd parties never have enough votes to get into parliament, but Donald Duck got 73 votes this year.
* Them Eyes: The Oct. 6 wedding of Elizabeth Taylor and Larry Fortensky appears to be having an impact on more than just the happy couple. U.S. sales of violet contact lenses are skyrocketing, and most of the new buyers are women hoping to emulate the svelte new Taylor look, says a spokesman for contact lens maker Durasoft. “Last year,” he said, “blue lenses were most popular with blond women. This year it is primarily brunettes.”
* Take a Tour: Princess Diana greeted boys at a refugee center and visited a family planning clinic Tuesday on the second day of a Pakistan trip. The British princess, dressed conservatively in the strict Muslim country, visited a medical center that treats refugee children from Afghanistan, a neighbor wracked by 13 years of civil war. She returns to Britain Friday.
