Despite the fact Coburn soon will be ii o 11 y wood's Aline Mosby only well-known octogenarian, he is perenially cast as a lovable guy whom sexy cuties kiss and pinch. He chased Marilyn in "Gentlemen Prefer Blondes," and now Sheree pats his plump, pink cheeks in "How To Be Very, Very Popular." Younger thespians might envy such an occupation, but Coburn revealed he doesn't get a zip from it on purpose. "Oh, I like kissing them, but an actor doesn't release his emo tions while playing a scene," boomed Coburn, jowls quiver ing, as he sat on the sidelines of his movie set at 20th Century Fox studio. Audience First "He wants the audience to en joy it. If he does, the audience doesn't. But he added with a twinkle behind his monocle, "I get my kicks in rehearsals." Coburn's pairings with young beauties dates back to his" mov ies in the early 40s with Jean Arthur. Since then he has ap peared lovable in a fatherly way to such beauties as Shelly Win ters, Ann Sheridan, Jane Rus sell and Jane Wyman. "And what's the name of that girl who smokes cigars? Oh, yes, Anne Baxter. I acted with her, too,'' he continued. Coburn polished his monocle and explained, "I remember the figures, but I forget the names." copy of this terrific catalog NOW!

"I like both Marilyn and She ree," he added. "Sheree is cute, has a lot of pixie in her and a quiet sense of humor. Marilyn radiates sex appeal. She's the kind of girl you always want to reach out and touch." Pinch or Pat Last year, The Masquers, a theatrical club, tossed a testimo nial dinner in honor of Coburn. In recognition of his : screen sweethearts, the dinner was billed as "Charles Coburn and His Lovelies," and Misses Rus sell, Monroe Wyman and Win ters sat at the head table. "Everybody made a speech and Shelley said that when I walked by her on the set she al ways got a little pinch," chuckl ed Coburn. ! "So I got up and said, "I didn't pinch, but I might have given you a little pat." Coburn thinks he is often paired with young ladies in films because "I have a certain elementh of youth about me. I'm interested in young people. You don't get old-fashioned that way." "You know that saying 'Young at Heart'? That's me," he said.
