DIES WHILE SWIMMING COOS BAY (UPD Ted Miller, 49, Coos Bay, died while swim ming in the South Coos River about 2 p.m. PST Wednesday. Of ficials said death was apparently due to a heart attack. moreneat Diane reports on By Vernon Seolt UPI Staff Writer HOLLYWOOD (UPD If you're going to play an Indian in the movies and hope to avoid fatuous cowboys and-or John Wayne the solution is to head for Calcutta or Bombay. This move changes the setting from Western to Eastern, and sometimes alters the plot but not often. The trip was worth it for young Diane Baker, blessed with a cher ub's innocent face, who went to India to portray a Punjabi prosti tute, which some people consider a better fate than perishing at the hands of a cavalry troop led by Wayne. A delicate little thing, Diane lived at home with her parents and knew as little about India as she did about the kind of girl she was to play in "Nine Hours to j ra. ' y . . M....n,., .-m.

Diane spent eight bewildering weeks, some of them enlivened by overdoses of curry, learning to play an Indian girl for a mere five days of work before the cameras. "Indian women walk and talk differently, of course," Diane said, crooking her little finger to dispatch a noonday Bloody Mary. "But their mannerisms and the way they move their heads and hands are very distinctive and not easy to imitate. They use their heads and necks to express all manner of emotions. "After about four weeks the In dian customs and point of view sank into my mind which helped me bring authenticity to the part." In her search for realism Diane went somewhat overboard, if not berserk. She lived with one lower class family for four days, sleep ing in the same room with a doz en women and children. "We all slept on the floor on mats. But I didn't got much sleep because rats and mice were scampering over us all night. "You might call the family av erage in India," she said. "There were many relatives in the house, including some married girls who were only 12 and 13 years old. Marriage at that age is rather common over there." Robson, a good-natured Sven gali, telephoned Diane every few nights to ask what she had learned and to check on her Indian-British accent. J - MA ' New Jnferesf in Americana spurred by Mrs. Kennedy NEW YORlt (UPD-Mrs. John F. Kennedy has spurred new in terest at home in Americana with her program of refurbishing the White House in authentic furnish ings from various periods of U.S. history. Abroad, a similar interest in Americana gets a giant assist from a unique museum started by two men who believe the cultural image overseas of the United States could stand im provement. The two are founders of the American Museum in Britain, which has just opened its latest addition a detailed replica of the flower gardens at George Wash ington's Mount Vernon home. The gardens are the gift of the Coloni al Dames of America. The museum is located at Clav erton Manor, Bath, England, 107 miles west of London. Sir Winston Churchill is supposed to have made his first political speech at Claverton 65 years ago. Old Wait Next When we heard of the garden presentation, we hied ourselves off to the headquarters of the Friends of the American Museum in Britain, where we found Mrs. Norman Walker, widowed mother of four grown sons, presiding. The chic Mrs. Walker, with a background in fashion sales and magazine work, is the Friends executive secretary. The Friends chairman is Mrs. Thomas S. La- mont of the Morgan and Lamont banking families. Tm the lookout girl for more items of historical interest to add to the museum," said Mrs. Walker. "Our next big project will be the Old West and we'll have to add a wing to the muse um to house it." The site of the museum is 55 acres of rolling countryside in cluding the manor house of some 33 rooms and galleries built in 1820 for one of England's landed gentry. The architect, Sir Jeffrey Wyatville, worked for George IV and helped restore Windsor Castle, one of the homes of the British royal family. Big Interest Mrs. Walker said the museum opened last July 15 for three months and that 20.000 persons visited it. This year, it will be open for six months and the number of visitors is expected to triple. 'There is a tremendous interest in Americana all over Europe," she said. The museum rooms range through furnishings and other an tiquity of the first three centuries of the United States. Included is a candlestand which belonged to Peregrine White, the first Ameri can child, born on the May flower's voyage to Plymouth Rock. The Museum curator is a Briton Ian McCallum, an archi tect who has traveled extensively While You Are Away On Vacation?

Return seen of confidence in market NEW YORK (UPI) - The re cent sharp rebound in stock prices reflected a return of confi dence in the market, particularly on the part of those who were be ginning to believe there was no bottom, says the International Statistical Bureau. While "one swallow does not make a summer," it says we must construe the action as indi cating very clearly that drastic liquidation in the recent past "was overdone and was unjusti fied, even assuming that many se curities which had reacted sharp ly were over-inflated." Joseph E. Granville of E. F. Hutton & Co. warns that second ary uptrends in a primary de cline may last between three weeks and three months. He says still bet'er technical evidence must be forthcoming before any kind of longevity on the upside can be projected. W. I. La Touretto and Walter Mintz of Shearson, Hammiil & Co. say there is a growing amount of evidence that the economy is heading for a mild dip and this obviously would have an impact on corporate profits. In view of the clouded business outlook, the possibility of a tighter money pol icy and the damaged state of in vestor confidence "we would doubt that the recent rally would extend much further." R. E. Buchsbaum of W. E. Hut- ton & Co. says barring new out side influences, 590-600 in thi D-J industrial average is going to be an area of congestion. He cays It seems doubtful whether stocks can pierce that area on this move and he thinks that if they do this summer, the danger signals would be flying again because the fac tors which were blamed for the big market decline are stlU with us.

I MAY I SAVE YOUR COPIES OF THE BULLETIN Ex-moYie idol Rex Bell dead LAS VEGAS. Nev. (l'PI)-Ne-vada's Lt. Gov. Rex Bell, onetime western movie idol and husband of former "It" girl Clara Bow, died of a heart attack Wednes day night shortly after greeting supporters of his gubernatorial bid at a Fourth of July picnic. Only hours before, the colorful, 58-year-old campaigner who brought his filmland flair for western attire into his everyday life, had spoken at a Republican Independence Day rally to boost his candidacy for governor. As he would have wanted it. and in the tradition of the cow boys he portrayed so many times on the screen, he died with his boots on. The friendly, hand-shaking poli tician was a familiar sight in most every Nevada city always attired in colorful western garb, a white ten gallon hat and hand tooled leather boots. And he head ed numerous parades with his familiar white horse. Bell's death threw the 1962 GOP gubernatorial election hopes into turmoil. Republicans had high hopes that Bell could wrest the state house from incumbent Dem ocrat Gov. Grant Sawyer. The silver-haired politician col lapsed at the home of Miss Katie Jenkins shortly before dinner. Survivors include his widow and two sons, Rex Anthony, 27, and George, 24. Jackie.

Soblen proves 'hot potato' LONDON (UPI) - The United States, Britain and Israel today disclaimed responsibility for run- away Soviet spy Dr. Robert Sob len during his recovery here from a suicide attempt.
