Around Hollywood By ALINE MOSBY United Press Correspondent Hollywood (U.R) A quiet, balding actor who worked un sung in 70 films at last won fame from a stage role, but Lloyd Nolan decided today he still doesn't think of himself as a "star."

Standard To Seek Oil Near Astoria Astoria (U.P.) Standard Oil Company of California will drill for oil or natural gas at a lo cation 12 miles from here, ac cording to a company announce ment here. A representative of Standard's San Francisco headquarters said bids for the exploratory drilling had already been invited. The well would go down to a maxi mum of 10,000 feet. Standard has leased a large portion of the beach dune area and all of Crown Zellerbach land in Clatsop county. Other major oil companies have leased ccunty-owned and private land.

Acclaimed Star But in 1953 Nolan was ac claimed as a stage star for his prize role Captain Queeg in ' The Caine Mutiny Court Mar tial." After a long New York run the Broadway cast moved to the new Huntington Hartford Theater here last week. The movie stars are turning out in droves to cheer the hometown boys who made good in the big city-Nolan, Barry Sullivan and John Hodiak. But Nolan humbly shrugs off the honors. "A star is somebody who producers know will automati cally add to the profits at the boxoffice," Nolan reflected as he relaxed before curtain time at the theater. "I am happy not to be one It gums up your life. Stars are hounded and badgered until fi nally they have a shield around them. I can walk around any place and hardly ever be no ticed." His stage success has brought his more film offers, he con fessed. "And better , ones. I used to get only despicable heavies or private eyes," he added. "I'd like to do a film this summer after the 'Caine' closes, and I may go back to the stage next fall." Nolan may play "an interest ing,, good general, not at all like the Queeg role has given me." Been Directing "I've been directing sub rosa for years so I might as well get paid for it," he said with an easy grin. Tonight Nolan begins his 566th performance as Queeg. Originally, he revealed, pro ducer Paul Gregory wanted a younger man for the role but changed his mind after hearing Humphrey Bogart would be the movies' Queeg. So far Nolan hasn't missed a performance. He thinks his year of playing private eye Mar tin Kane on live TV in New York was "much tougher be cause I usually got in five fights per show." One safety note that makes Queeg an easier part: Those two steel balls that 3re his trademark are attached by a chain he can wrap around his hand. "What if they were loose and rolled into the footlights? I'd have to get out of my chair and pick them up, I guess," he said. LONG, DRY HAUL Rowley, Mass.
