Around Hollywood ALINE MOSBY UaHed Prats Correspondent Bollywood CU.fO A photo graph of a beautiful nude blonde on a 1952 calendar is hanging 'V , f barbershops all over ine nauon today. Marilyn Mon ro e admitted that the beauty is she. She posed, stretched out on crumpled red velvet, for Alio Motor the artistic photo three years ago because "I was broke and needed the money. "Oh, -the- calendar's hanging in garages all over town," said Marilyn. "Why deny it? You can get one any place. "Besides, I'm not ashamed of it. I've done nothing wrong."

Just Another Blond But in 1949 she was just an other scared young blonde, strug gling to find fame In the magic city, and all alone. As a child she livesd in a Hollywood orphanage. She was pushed around among 12 sets of foster parents before she turned an insecure 16. After an unsuccessful mar riage, she moved into Holly wood's famed Studio Club, home of hopeful actresses. Called Photographer "I was a week behind on my rent," she explained. "I had to have the money. A photographer, Tom Kelley, had asked me be fore to pose but I'd never do ft.

Marilyn speaks in a breath less, soft voice, and she's always very serious about every word she says. Everyone Knew Her "Tom didn't think anyone would recognize me," she, said. "My hair was long then. But when the picture came out, ev erybody knew me. I'd never have done it if I'd known things would happen in Hollywood so fast for me." Marilyn's bosses at plushy Fox Studio reached for the ulcer tab lets when the calendar blos somed out in January.' "I was told I should deny I'd posed . . . but I'd rather be hon est about it. I've gotten a lot of fan letters on it. The men like the picture and want copies. The women, well ... "One gossip columnist said I autographed the pictures and handed them out and said 'art for art's sake.' I never said that. "Why, I only gave two away," said Marilyn, and blinked those big, blue eyes. Week's Budget Style WW Thursday.

U.PJ Construc tion crews, archaeologists and atomic scientists have combined in Ontario to establish the age of the oldest Indian site yet dis covered in the province. Excavations by construc tion crews near Port Franks, Ont., uncovered signs of Indian life at " three . different levels. They called in the archaeologists of the University of Western On tario, who gathered samples and sent them to physicists at the The Chicago physicists, work ing with charcoal samples dis covered near Port Franks and sent to them by Wilfrid Jury, curator of the museum of Urn versity of Western Ontario, were able to set the age of the old Indian site at 2,690, plus or minus 220 years. The charcoal was found more than six feet below the surface. Along with it were fish and game bones, stone pot tery and flint chips. The physicists used their knowledge of radioactivity to de termine the age of the charcoal. Carbon 14, a radioactive iso tope, is found in charcoal and the rate of decay from the full state of radioactivity is known. Examining the charcoal for the amount of radioactivity remain ing, the scientists were able to calculate the amount of decay and the age of the sample. Jury placed the Indian inhabi tants at the site at about the same time as the Mound Builders of Ohio. The Mound Builders were known to be Indians and lived in mound-shaped homes which they built along the shores of the Mississippi river. They oc cupied the continent before the better known American Indian of later centuries. LANDS LIKE CAT Fort Worth, Tex. MB As a paratrooper in World War H, J. B.
