Editorial comments: 0930-1105 MT visited the aviation company, Marshalls; 1125-1225 she talked to patients and staff at the Papworth Hospital; 1318-1440 she attended a private party lunch at Ickleton; 1505-1640 she toured firms in the Cambridge Science Park. The Times: "The Prime Minister said that Britain would still be labouring in a "hansom cab society" if it did not continue to develop new technologies". ITN indexes record material from the visit to Marshalls: "Northern cities were built by entrepreneurs/volume of trade not kept up/we now have rebirth of commerce in the North". The Cambridge Evening News adds nothing.
