or Hollywood Creations and Personalities

HOLLYWOOD — Kirk Douglas'
suspense melodrama, "A Lovely
Way to Die," in which the star
appears as a quite ruthless private
cop, was unsatisfactory to us when
previewed in Hollywood. The im-
aginative background conjured up
by the cameras of Morris Hartz-
band for producer Richard Lewis
and director David Lowell Rich
is no substitute for intelligent story
telling so badly missing in the
multiple-leveled plot concoction.
Technically, "A Lovely Way to
Die" is a masterpiece both of
visual development and unintru-
sive, panoramic shots of pictures-
que sweep and rare magnitude.
Sylva Koscina, Europe's latest con-
tribution to American movie-mak-
ing, is paired with stage actor
Kenneth Haigh. Eli Wallach con-
tributes a tour-de-force perform-
ance as the oily Southern defense
attorney. Kirk Douglas shows self-
restraint in the part of the over-
zealous detective, an unpleasant
character who will use all the
tricks of villainy to reach his
final goal.

JAN STERLING, wife of the
late Paul Douglas and a screen
star on her own, was honored in
Hollywood by the American Jew-
ish Congress for her contributions
in the medium of television to
the understanding between the
majority and minority religions
and races in the United States.
Miss Sterling modestly replied to
the flowery accolade simply that
she does things for herself, not
for the sake of others. Having
been converted to Judaism not
only gave her inner strength and
satisfaction, it also established in
her a sense of responsibility for
humanity at large.

The Kirk Douglas movie was
produced before the new anti-
violence trend took hold of the
Hollywood scene. The actor since
has made two more movies; we
are sure less brutal and bloody.

NEIL SIMON'S B roadw a y
comedy, "The Star Spangled Girl"
will be produced by Howard W.
Koch for Paramount with Arnold
Schulman writing the screenplay
for filming late in 1968. The story
of the small-town girl in conflict
with two Madison Avenue execu-
tives was presented on the stage
by Saint-Subber and directed by
George Axelrod. The film rights
to "The Star Spangled Girl" marks
the fourth association of Para-
mount with Neil Simon's plays.
They include "The Odd Couple,"
directed by Gene Saks; Hal Wallis'
production of "Barefoot in the

LISTENING

ALTHOUGH NOT a student of
psychology, Julius Belkin saved
himself $200 through the use of it
. . . Accosted by a holdup man
late one night last week, Jules,
thinking quickly, asked the thief
for a half-dollar and started a
rambling hard-luck story . . . As-
tonished, the bandit admitted his
original intention and gave his
intended victim 50 cents . . . Marty
went home wth his half-dollar and
the $200 that was in his wallet!

LITTLE BOBBY Reiner ran into
the house all out of breath last
week with the news, "Mummy,
they have a new baby next door,
and the lady is sick . . . Sylvia
Reiner told him that she already
knew . . . and that she would go
over the next day when their
neighbor was a little better . . .
"But she's so sick today," Bobby
insisted, "that you ought to go over
now, mummy" . . . .and again Syl-
via said she thought it best to
wait until the woman was a little
better . . . Bobby was puzzled .. .
Finally the cause of his mother's
reluctance seemed to dawn on him
for he burst out "You don't have
to be afraid, mummy. It isn't
catching!"

LETTER COMES to Barry
Swartz from Tau Epsilon Rho
fraternity at Eastern University,
desperately in need of furniture
for its house ... Especially needed
are dressers, couches and dining
room furniture . . . If you can
help the college fellows out, don't
hesitate . . . Call Barry's dad,
Percy Swartz, at LO 7-9833 or
WO 1-6232 and he'll have the boys
make the pick up.

LIKE MANY TOURISTS, Sid-
ney H. Elman, back from his va-
cation in Mexico, wondered why
M e x i c an peons always ride on
burros while their wives walk be-
hind . . . Finally Sidney stopped
a peasant and asked him the rea-
son .. . The Mexican looking sur-
prised, replied, "But Senor, my
wife doesn't own a burro."

CHILDREN'S DEPT.
"Mommy," said 6-year-old Judy
Selesnick, daughter of Rube and
Adrian Selesnick, "while you were
away last night, I looked for some-
body to say my prayers to but
daddy was watching television and
auntie was talking on the phone,
so I just said 'em to God."

DISA 'N DATA . . . . It was a
surprise 50th birthday party re-
cently for Dr. Harry Woll at party
given by wife Ellen . . . Good luck,
health and happiness, Harry . . .
Sonny Elliot, WWJ weathercaster
and sports enthusiast, predicts that
the Detroit Tigers will win the
pennant by eight games . . . No
doubt that the Bengals will be
this year's American League
champions! . . .That voice you
hear regularly with the sexy "Go
Get 'ern Tigers" belongs to Paula
McKinney, community-ite daughter
of Reva and Sidney Jackson.

Foreign Currency Reserves
TEL AVIV—Since May, the Bank
of Israel's foreign currency re-
serves have risen by 163,000,000
dollars, according to the Bank's
August report. From $613,000,000
at the beginning of May, the dollar
and gold reserves have increased
to $776,000,000 at the beginning of
September, due largely to more
contributions and greater sales
abroad of Independence Bonds.
