a a. : VL s, w NO COMMENT! Secy, of State John Foster Dulles, an gered by a reporter's question on why he released the Yalta papers at this time, stalks toward his plane in Washington r that will take him tc Ottawa for a three-day visit. To an earlier question, Dulles said he expects the Yalta contro versy "to go on through the ages." Around Hollywood By ALINE MOSBY United Press Correspondent Hollywood (U.R) Jean Her- sholt has celebrated his 50th an ni versa ry as an actor by leaving his famed Dr. Christian role for the first time in 18 years to return to the movies. The bespec tacled veteran recently put on grease paint to portray Vive Aline Mosbr ca L i n d f ors' father in a Pine-Thomas produc tion for Paramount, "Run For Cover." From 1936 until this year, Hersholt appeared in no other role but Dr. Christian. He starred in more than 800 radio programs about the character and six Dr. Christian pictures at RKO until 1952. Since that year, because of his radio work and various community projects, he was absent from the screen, ex cept for portraying himself briefly in "Dancing in the Dark" and one false start at MGM. I No Message "In 'It s A Great Country" Ann Harding and I co-starred in a sequence but MGM did not use it at all," Hersholt smiled. "I guess there wasn't enough of a message in it. "But now that I have time to work in pictures again I've had many offers and I plan to accept more film roles." Hersholt has not given up the Dr. Christian character, how ever. The scries retired from radio after 17 years a year ago. But he still owns one-third of the rights to the character and plans to transfer the story to television next fall. The fact that nearly every TV program is involved with scalp els and white uniforms these dayg does not ruffle the original doctor of show business. "I do not think 'Medic' hurt Dr. Christian on TV," he re flected as he puffed quietly on his pipe in the trophy-filled library of his Beverly Hills home. "Dr. Christian stories were built on the humanitarian angle. At times they even bordered on corn, but good corn. " 'Medic' is a fine program, but I think Dr. Christian has more general appeal. Most peo ple don't like to watch stories about how . other people are dying of cancer. "I will appear in only 13 shows a year on TV and narrate the rest. It's funny to be start ing a new career after 50 years." Hersholt broke into show bus iness on the stage in his native Denmark Jan. 1, 1906. His first American film was made March 26, 1906. Many fans think of Hersholt as the kindly Dr. Chris tian and have forgotten his fame as a villain in such screen classics as -"Stella Dallas" and "Tess of the Storm Country." He liked "Greed" the best of his old pictures. "Run for Cover," he figures, in his 453rd movie. "Now that I'm back in pic tures I'm dying to do a heavy again but I don't dare because of Dr. Christian," he said.
