I found John III, a red-haired In fant with the unmistakable Bar rymore profile bouncing in his baby carriage on the porch. John's wife, flame-haired Cara Williams, greeted me at the door. BACK TO WORK We settled in the den and John said he had returned here for hard work to offset the reports of his critics. These include his family. You'll recall that recent ly Producer Paul Gregory tried to buy family rights to "Good Night, Sweet Prince," the John Barrymore biography. Kirk Douglas was rumored for' the role. "I was up for another picture with Douglas; 1 guess that's off now," said young John. "He tried to make me heavy in the affair. He said he wouldn't dare play my father, that made it appear I would. I wouldn't think of it now not until I'm at least 35." John risked the family wrath by turning thumbs down on selling the rights. His mother, Dolores Barrymore, said that John was too young to play his father, that he should be in school. ' "I don't want to ba in school." he told me. "I've been in and out Lot enough of them. A MERE $10,000 "I told my mother that I didn't want to sell because playing my father was always my ambition. Do you know what she was get ting? A mere $10,000. And $2,000 for my sister Deue, Why, any stu dio in town would give $100,000 for the rights. John has also gotten it from his Aunt Ethel. In a 75th birth' dal interview, she told me that no Barrymore ever behaved in the theater the way John Jr. has. The lad refused to enter into public controversy with Ethel be yond saying: Take a look at the records 30 years back. You'll find my aunt had some pretty hot words with Mr. Frohman." He added that Ethel has never complemented him to his face in his 22 years. But its different with crusty old Uncle Lionel This summer John sent Lionel some of the reviews he got in a summer theater tour. They were raves. One critic admitted enter ing the theater saying "this is a Barrymore" and leaving with this IS a Barrymore! GREAT REVIEW "Why, those were great, Lionel rumbled. "We never got reviews like that when we were kids. The critics knocked our ears off." John complained that the charges of a summer theater owner against him drew much publicity "but you could hardly find the news that Actors Equity upheld me in the dispute." He gets it from all sides, he sighed. A Broadway columnist printed that he had been drunk in three New York bars. John got action on that report right away. He doesn t drink. "I hate the stuff," he declared. He added that eight photog raphers showed up when he went to court for not having the pap. ers yet on his Texas car. Two days later, he was again in the news because he absent-mindedly jaywalked through a signal. "Look," John added, "I don't mind the handicap of having to live up to my father s reputation as an actor. That reputation was warranted. But I don't se why I should get knocked from all sides. All I want is an even break." (ADVERTISEMENT) Davenports & chairs cleaned, Torrey's Rug & Furn. Cleaners 1210',4 Willamette. Ph. 5-4297. I.

Wl A dis- patch from the U. S. 7th Fleet; said Tuesday that units of the fleet early this month moved into position to resist Chinese Communist invasion of Formosa. Planes from the U. S. carriers Hornet, Boxer and Yorktdwn, the dispatch released here by thfi commander of the Pacific fleet air force said, streamed into the air over the Formosa strait ready for action. THREE CARRIERS The dispatch, dated Sept. 27, said the movement of fleet units. including the three carriers, the heavy cruiser St. Paul and a number of destroyers, was occa sioned by the bombardment from the mainland of the Chinese Na tionalist island of Quemoy, be ginning Sept. 3. It added: "As the possibility of an invasion of Formosa ap peared imminent, the carriers USS Hornet, Boxer and York town were ordered to a point southeast of Formosa, where they were joined by the St. Paul, flagship for Vice Adm. A. M. Price, commander 7th Fleet. 2,000 PATROLS "Both FOF6 swept-wing jets and propellor-driven Skyraider dive bombers streamed into the air for patrol over Formosa straits. More than 2,000 combat patrols and training sorties were launched by the attack carriers during the operation. The dispatch said the earners and escorting vessels moved from one location to another, "al lowing pilots to become familiar with the terrain and conditions throughout the area" and made one night passage through the straits. . The fleet units have since re turned to Manila. COSTLY WELCOME DELANSON, N. Y. Of) You'd better pull in that welcome mat. Carol Acker, 14, tripped over one and cut her forehead.
