Two of Britain’s bestknown bachelors, Edward Heath and David Frost, talked last night about women, and Mr Heath admitted he regretted they had not played a bigger part in his life, N.Z.P.A.Reuter reports from Lon-

don. Did the Opposition leader regret it? asked the inteviewer, Frost, whose relationships with several women are widely publicised in Britain. “I think, yes. Yes,” replied Mr Heath, who is not known to have any relationship with women. Mr Heath, a

former Conservative Prime Minister, agreed in the 8.8. C. television interview that it was something that, to complete his life’s whole picture, he would have liked. “But if you go on like this I shall get a stream of letters tomorrow or the day after, saying ‘Why didn’t you tell that

Frost man to go to hell when he starts asking questions like this?”, said Mr Heath. “Well, no,” said Frost, "you might get a stream Of letters enclosing photographs.” Mr Heath, laughing heartily, added: “Well, yes. But that might be even more embarrassing.”
