I 'Parent Trap1 Traps Viewers By GILBERT RESEARCH With her latest film. "The Par ent Trap." Hayley Mills, the 14-year-old British youngster, won't lose any of the young people she took into thrall as "Pollyannii." We dispatched six teen-age previeweis lo a screening of the new comedy, and they came away unanimously impressed with the film and with Hayley. Walt Disney, who spotted Hayley in an English film, "Tiger Bay" and immediately snapped her up for the role of Pollyanna, boosts Hayley's comet further into orbit with this pleasant comedy. We have two Ha leys for the price of one in this one, because she plays twins when we first see her at a summer camp. There she meets a girl who looks just like her and in stant dislike sets in. A small in cident brings the girls to friend ship and then, after comparing. notes, tliey discover the funny co incidence that they share the same parents. Papa and Mama, it seems. divided up the twins when they were divorced. The rest of the film is a conspira cy between Mills and Mills to bring the folks back together. Maureen O Hara and Brian Keith are Mama and Papa, and then there's Jo anna Barnes as the extra beautiful woman. She'd like to have Brian for her very own and for much of the picture, Brian is stimulated by the idea. Despite the trappings of a soap opera, this all works out as attractive comedy with enough mis understandings to keep the teen previewers alternately groaning and howling. Douglas Cochran, 18, of Camden, N. J., speaking for our male crit ics, said, "1 usually don't like pic tures of this sort because they are about girls and their troubles. But this picture was just fantastic. Hay ley Mills was tremendous." Fyllis Jane Berger, 16. of Miami Beach, Fla., added, "This is one you shouldn't if iss." DANCHOK TO GRADUATE Stephen L.

It s by the same author, Evan Hunter, and deals with the same grisly subject matter, life among New York's terrified and terrorizing juvenile delinquents. We sent a panel of non-delinquent teenagers to preview the film, found them in accord on its ex citement and importance. The mes sage that bad environments are fine places for breeding bad kids is hardly new, but it is handled hero with considerable eloquence and ferocity by TV director John Frankcnhcimer, now making a name for himself in films. There's a lot of plot here. Burt, assistant to a district attorney with aspirations for the Governor s scat, is dispatched to his old slum-ncigh hoihond to crack a case involving the murder of a teen-ager, pre suinnbly by three other teen-agers, He finds that the mother of one of the accused boys is an old flame, Shelley Winters, who nat orally couldn't have done anything so vile. Thero are several tricky plot twists, and the ending is not going to make everyone happy, though justice does triumph. But the mes sage gels across. One of our pre viewers, Louise Kaufman, 17, com mented, "In my opinion, THE YOUNG SAVAGES came closet- to the reason for teen-age gang problems than any other movie on this topic . . good acting and real istic story told in a lifelike, some times funny way." The photography was cited as so vivid you can almost smell the slums. Shelley Winters also came in for Ngh praise, possibly be causo she gets to play the strong est scenes. For Lancaster, this per formance is not up to his "Elmer Gantry," but then the part doesn't demand great acting. Car Excellence N. E.
