ALL OF A SUDDEN You can chalk up one more child actress who has successfully made the transformation into grown up roles. Natalie Wood is shown here (left) as she appeared in "The Miracle of . 34th Street" in 1947 and (right) as she appears in Hollywood currently shooting "Rebel Without a Cause." She is 17. Around Hollywood By ALINE MOSBY United Press Correspondent in Hollywood (U.R) Natalie Wood, the one-time child ac' ess pigtails, has graduated to grown - up roles an over - night t r a n s f o rma tion "because I'm slender." Only last year Natalie played a 12 -year - old in "The Silver Aline Mosby Chalice" and also other sub-sub-debs in TV films. But today, at 17, she's portraying a pretty, curvacaous high-school girl who has tender love scenes with new star Jame.3 Dean in "Rebel Without a Cause." "Physically I'm slight and small," she explained. "I've been able to work right along because I never went through that awk ward plump growing-up stage 1 HIT!!

"When I was too young to play grown-up parts, I still could play a 12-year-old. Now I'm ol,d enough to change to older roles. "Some child actresses have trouble making the switch," she added. "Margaret O'Brien had to wear braces on her teeth." Natalie performed her "over night" transformation with some tricks. The wardrobe department helped her disguise her slender figure. In a teen-age hair-do and make-up she looks like what she is a senior in high-school (she still goes to Van Nuys High School between pictures). "But to do the 12-year-oi! roles last year I made my voice higher and thinner," she said. "Another reason I think I'll work toward truly mature roles is my name. How can an actress grow up with a name like Terry or Debbie? My name fits ma ture roles, too." Natalie nosed out Debbie Rey nolds, Pat Crowley, Kathryn Grant and other young players for the plum role opposite Dean. She thinks the part is the be ginning "of a new career for me I'm getting a lot of chances to play older girls on television." Enough Young Roles "The young roles were good for the experience and training," she said. "But I hope I don't have to do any more. I've had my fill of those." Natalie appears to be strain ing at the bit to be grown up in real life, too. She said she'll be overjoyed when she graduates from high-school this year. She ther can do without her tutor on movie sets and also without her mother as a chaperone. As a real-life high-school se nior, Natalie thinks most TV series and movies about teen agers are "phony." "They have those silly girls, giggling, and squealing 'Oh, Daddy, ' " she said. "Kids re sent it. There's no phonies in our movie. It shows that teenagers have problems."
