Around Hollywood By ALINE MOSBY United Press Correspondent Hollywood (U.R) One of the victims Davy Crockett mowed down with his coonskin cap is a bright faced young man who every Friday stands in line to col lect his $30 un ployment in surance. Until Davy began grinning bears to death Aline Motor on television, Lyn Osbom was Cadet Happy on "Space Patrol" and one of TV'i biggest idols to children. But "Space Patrol's" fickle fans decided to change headgear. The small fry junked their space helmets in favor of coonskin caps. Today Cadet Happy's rocket hip, Terr V,' stands dusty and unwanted in a scenery shed at ABC-TV studios a symbol to the short loyalties of pint-sized TV viewers. Good Company And Osbom, who was making $40,000 a year, is jobless. "But at the unemployment in surance office I stand behind some 'Ramar of the Jungle' act ors so I'm in good . company," cracked Osbom today. "And the line is loaded with old 'Space Patrol' heavies vil lains from Jupiter and Saturn." "Space Patrol" bit the dust 14 weeks ago because the sponsor wanted another type of show. Osbom thinks this had nothing to do with the switch to coon skin caps, but insiders at ABC TV say otherwise. Now Osbom is making the rounds of movie and TV pro ducers to convince them he can. do something else besides fly through space. "I'd like to play heavies, psy chopathic killers, maybe," he re flected. "I don't know whether to take advantage of my space character in getting jobs, or try to get away from it. "Unfortunately, many produc ers don't think of me as an actor, but a space man. It's the influ ence of their kids." Quick Fame Osbom started "Space Patrol" fresh from dramatic school, and quickly rose to fame. He received a cut of "Space Patrol" space suits, helmets, ray guns and other items sold to kiddies. "But the merchandising busi ness is gone," he said. He was a star of outer space for five years on TV and four on radio.

The Admiralty said it was unlikely the entire crew of 44 was aboard. Rescue ships have managed to pass a wire around the sub's stern. Try To Refloat British Sub Fails Portland, England (U.R) An attempt to "blow" the sunken British submarine Sidon to the surface with compressed air failed today. The submarine exploded and sank yesterday with a loss of 13 lives. Royal Navy divers reported that the torpedo room explosion which sent the 1000-ton subma Change in 'Eye-Alone7 Approach Claimed Needed To Promote Sales of Furniture Chicago U.R) The Ameri can public doesn't know how to buy furniture and won't ever learn unless designers change their "eye-alone" approach, a teacher of design said today. Ray Pearson, an instructor at the Illinois Institute of Design said designers have "gone over board" on appearance, with chair designers the "worse of fenders." Professional buyers then select the chair for sale after "at the most, perching in it for a couple of minutes." Approach Passed On "This approach is passed on to the retail customers," Pearson said. "He rarely knows or even cares when he makes the pur chase whether the furniture will fulfill his own needs. "If he's seen pictures of cer tain furniture in magazines or newspapers, or if his neighbor has bought it, he'll buy just about anything, including the autograph, children trailed him down the street. Today as we strolled through Beverly Hills not one moppet besieged him. "Anybody want to buy 500 8-by-10 fan pictures of me as a space cadet?" the deposed 30th century hero mourned. ."I'll trade them for a couple of Daw Crockett nictures.

The conning tower leak was discovered shortly after dawn to day and the attempt to "blow" 'one-position' chairs so popular now." Pearson was particularly criti cal of what he called "one of the darlings" of the furniture indus try, the bucket chair.

Three officers and 10 crewmen, including a Canadian, were trapped within the submarine when it plunged beneath the water. several variations of this chair, he said, but all generally have a moulded back and scooped out seat of plywood or metal. "They're beautiful to look at," Pearson said, "but just as uncom fortable as the airplane bucket seat they were patterned after. "The airplane seat was de signed to hold a person in one position. If he got cramped it didn't matter. But it does matter if you get cramped sitting in a chair in your own home. Why Torture Selves? "The human body wasn't de signed to sit in one position, he said. "Why torture ourselves?" Pearson said he is looking to the International Home Furnish ings summer market, beginning at Chicago June 20, for an indi cation that designers are finally learning that a piece of furniture doesn't have to be ugly to be funcational." "There's a real need for furni ture in the middle and lower price class that is both functional and good to look at," he said, "and until designers provide this, they're falling down on the job." poison OAK?
