Big Boy, now 58, is a co-itarof Aline Mosbv NBC's "Circus Boy" television series, but back in the '20s he was one of the first top sage brush heipes. What today's cowpoke, par ticularly the TV variety, wears while rounfling up the villains makes the usually affable Big Boy sputter. "When I hear Earp's name I get indigestion," he said. "I like O'Brian's acting, but I look at that show to get laughs. If real cowhands ever saw Hugh they'd laugh themselves to death.

Guns Worn too Low "Besides," he added, Hugh wears his guns too lo. Guy Mad ison and Jim Arness dress OK on TV, though." Big Boy starred in 34 westerns in the '20s. He was one of the most colorful celebrities of that colorful era. He owned 125 polo ponies. He romanced such beau ties as Clar Bow and Lupe Velez. Today's glamour girls, he says, don't hold an eyelash to them. Since the '30s, Big Boy has been a supporting player in many big westerns, such as last year's "The Man from Del Rio." He admits sorrowfully that his stardom of the '20s didn't last, possibly because he didn't go in for fancy clothes. In his early movies, Big Boy, an authentic rancher's son from Decatur, Tex., wore real cowhands' outfits-blue jeans and a plain, blue work shirt. Tom Mix Recalled "Tom Mix started it fancy white boots and shirts with diamond-shaped pockets," Big Boy reminisced. "Autry and Rogers picked it up. Of course, Harry Carey was a wonderful western star and he didn't wear those fancy clothes." "I guess if I had it to do over again. I'd learn to dance, sing and play a guitar. I'd go into it for all it was worth. I never even had a press agent," he said, and shook his massive head of hair. Williams and his wife often visit their 5,500-acre ranch near Spofford, Tex. Since he still re tains his Texan citizenship, I asked Big Boy if he saw "Giant." "I was so mad at tiat movie I couldn't speak for a week!" he boomed. "I'm glad I wasn't in it I would have been ashamed to go back to Texas." Provisional President Of Haiti Under Guard Port Au Prince, Haiti (U.R) The Army held Franck Sylvain under guard today and opened an investigation into the cause of a general strike that brought about his downfall as provision al president. Army chief Leon Cantave an nounced Sylvain's resignation Tuesday night and said he would conduct an intensive inquiry into the political crisis that gen erated the countrywide walkout. During the two-day strike, which paralyzed all business and industry, 10 persons were in jured and more than 200 arrest ed. Six presidential candidates called the strike Monday when Sylvain turned down their de mand for a complete reorgani zation of his cabinet to give their parties adequate represen tation.

Chilean Soldiers Ordered To Shoot Santiago, Chile (U.R) Pres ident Carlos Ibanez ordered se curity forces today to shoot if necessary to stop rioting and looting which started as a pro test against a bus and trolley fare increase. Six persons had been killed and 158 injured when the Pres ident broadcast . the order over the state-owned radio network early this morning. He also threatened to shut down newspapers and radio sta tions inflaming the mobs, but there was no censoring of out going cables. The government agreed to sus pend the 50 per cent fare hike temporarily in an effort to calm the protest. Political leaders said Ibanez also agreed to free all those arrested during the riots. Some 250,000 high school and university students agreed, as a result, to end the 48-hour strike Police and soldiers clashed throughout Tuesday with mobs armed with stones and clubs that roamed the city robbing stores, stoning newspaper buildings and the National Congress and at tempting to set fire to the Cath-, edral. Police stopped one group from attacking the presidential pal ace. Ambulances set up shuttle ser vices delivering the dead and wounded to hospitals. Hungarian Party To Get Official Snub Washington (U.R) U. S. of ficials plan to give Communist Hungary's "liberation" party Thursday night a first-class dip lomatic snub. Invitations to the 12th anni versary party of the "liberation of Hungary" by Soviet troops are cluttering State Department waste baskets. Officials who at tended reluctantly in past year aren't even sending "regrets" this year. The United States is still In censed at the Hungarian Com munist regime and the Soviet Union for ruthlessly stamping out Hungary's "freedom revolt" last fall. The anniversary is regarded i by the State Department as I phony. Officials-refer to it jar- i castically as the "so-called lib- j eration." Soviet troops moved into Hungary in late 1944 and installed a Communist majority j regime in 1947. The Reds began i celebrating the 1945 "liberation" j in April, 1950.
